Ep 126. The Fear Of Never Finding Love

Jeremy Tusia & Ilan Volchek
About this episode

The fear of never finding love is a common and completely normal part of your 20s. It often brings a wave of uncertainty, leading you to question whether your standards are too high, if you were too quick to dismiss that nice but unexciting date, or whether you're doing something wrong altogether. So how do you manage this fear in a way that feels grounding and constructive?

Join Big Bros, Jeremy and Ilan, as they dive into how to manage the fear of never finding love, expect to learn why being told to just be more confident is one of the most unhelpful pieces of advice, how underlying beliefs about your worthiness might be driving this fear, why choosing not to settle for an unfulfilling relationship requires accepting the risk of being alone, the practical steps to help you fall in love with yourself, how to use visualisation to attract your ideal partner, and much more.
