We're all guilty of using spirituality to sidestep or avoid dealing with unresolved emotions from time to time. It’s called spiritual bypassing, and it’s quite common, especially in relationships. It's yet another way our shadow self prevents us from evolving and becoming our highest self.The key is to lean into it – to face our deeper core wounds head-on and focus fully on them instead of trying to avoid or bypass them. This means acknowledging our behaviours and patterns.If you’ve found yourself feeling stuck, experiencing inner conflict, resistance or emptiness, that pain might be the result of avoiding your deeper wounds. But by asking a simple question, we can reconnect with our deeper truth and avoid spiritual bypassing.Mentioned in this episode:The Awakened Masculine Program A 9-week immersive journey into the depths of unleashing your awakened masculine powerWhy Old Souls Cannot Date and How to Finally Be Met A 2.5-hour immersive workshop to uncover the hidden patterns keeping you emotionally unmatched and learn how to create a real connection that lasts

Many of us struggle to balance our masculine and feminine energies. This imbalance can manifest as a fear of abandonment and lack of self-belief, especially in women who are stuck in their immature feminine energy. They constantly seek validation and lack personal boundaries, which creates a cycle of attracting immature masculine energy.In this episode, TV host and emotional rights advocate Megan Pormer illustrates how women need to first understand and recognise their immature feminine energy, then work on developing mature masculine qualities within themselves. These are qualities like clear communication and boundary setting.Societal expectations and pressures put on women make the journey of self-discovery so much harder. And women stuck in immature feminine energy – or who get wrapped up in immature masculine energy – often experience unhealthy relationships and a lack of self-understanding.So in this episode, Megan and Lorin invite you to surround yourself with a supportive community, so you can move from fear to empowerment, and from seeking validation to believing in yourself.Follow @meganpormer on InstagramMentioned in this episode:Why Old Souls Cannot Date and How to Finally Be Met A 2.5-hour immersive workshop to uncover the hidden patterns keeping you emotionally unmatched and learn how to create a real connection that lasts

Infidelity is a painful experience that can shatter trust and cause profound emotional distress. It's a problem that leaves us feeling gutted, wronged and as if the ground has been taken from beneath our feet. It can lead to self-doubt and a severe impact on our trust in ourselves and in our relationship decisions.People cheat not because they are inherently bad, but because they are dealing with their own trauma and pain. They are out of alignment with their own truth. Healing begins with forgiveness – if we can find it in our hearts – and understanding that the act of cheating is a reflection of the person who cheated, not a reflection of us.In this episode, Lorin explains why men and women cheat, and offers advice for victims of infidelity as well as those with patterns of cheating.Mentioned in this episode:The Awakened Masculine Program A 9-week immersive journey into the depths of unleashing your awakened masculine powerWhy Old Souls Cannot Date and How to Finally Be Met A 2.5-hour immersive workshop to uncover the hidden patterns keeping you emotionally unmatched and learn how to create a real connection that lasts

Hormonal imbalances in both women and men can lead to low libido, mood swings, and other symptoms that strain relationships. To address these challenges, we need to prioritise hormonal balance and support each other.In this episode, Lorin speaks with Prof Annice Mukherjee, a leading women's health and hormone expert. With a medical career spanning over 30 years, she has supported thousands of women in managing menopause and hormone-related challenges to improve their quality of life and health.Prof Annice urges both men and women to learn about the hormonal changes that occur and how they can affect our bodies and emotions. And she encourages creating safe spaces for open and honest conversations about how these challenges impact relationships.When hormonal issues are ignored by doctors, this leaves women disempowered. And when they speak to men, their inclination to want to “solve” problems can be unhelpful. But by having open and compassionate conversations about the potential impact of hormonal changes, both parties can navigate these challenges and strengthen their relationship.About Prof AnniceProf Annice Mukherjee is a leading women's health and hormone expert in the UK with a medical career spending over 30 years.

Men often feel like women are trying to change them, which of course causes conflict in their relationship. Men want to be accepted “for who they are”, but this doesn’t mean accepting mens’ shadow. Instead, it means loving and accepting them while desiring growth and change if their patterns stem from wounding.Men need to set healthy boundaries. If someone is trying to change a man in a way that goes against his truth, he must express his values and stand in his integrity. Boundaries allow us all to maintain conscious relationships and honour our own growth.When we misinterpret our partners’ need for a deeper and authentic connection, we put strain on the relationship. Unresolved conflicts and unaddressed wounds can lead to a lack of trust, intimacy, and satisfaction. So we need to embrace the opportunity for growth and evolve together.In this episode, Lorin explains how, by examining our own patterns and wounds, we can reflect on whether we are identifying ourselves with our shadows or operating from our highest truth. This cultivates self-awareness and creates healthier dynamics in our relationships.Mentioned in this episode:Why Old Souls Cannot Date and How to Finally Be Met A 2.5-hour immersive workshop to uncover the hidden patterns keeping you emotionally unmatched and learn how to create a real connection that lasts

What do women mean when they say “maybe”? For men, this can feel like a lack of clarity, but it goes much, much deeper. In this episode, Lorin uncovers ways to create more polarity by embracing the differences in communication styles between the masculine and the feminine.The feminine’s use of "maybe" and similar expressions is a natural part of their style of communication. This style actually creates attraction and polarity between the masculine and the feminine. This invites the masculine to embody his innate energy by offering direction, leadership, and decisiveness when a woman expresses "maybe".When we misunderstand and judge one another's communication style, we risk losing the depth of connection and polarity essential for a thriving relationship. But we have the opportunity to create a stronger bond and foster deeper intimacy by recognising and authentically responding to each-other’s style.Mentioned in this episode:Why Old Souls Cannot Date and How to Finally Be Met A 2.5-hour immersive workshop to uncover the hidden patterns keeping you emotionally unmatched and learn how to create a real connection that lasts
