    In this episode, Elle discusses the concept of self-worth and how it ties into our relationships, specifically addressing a viral video of a woman rejected by a matchmaker. She critiques the harmful alpha-beta narrative in dating, encouraging listeners to wipe it from their vocabulary. Elle emphasizes that rejection often serves as redirection towards what is truly meant for us. She shares her perspective on the 'perfect as you are' narrative, asserting that it's okay not to be perfect and advocating for self-improvement to get what we want in life. Elle concludes by advising listeners to trust in their future selves and live in their desired realities.

      I love how in 2000, when us geriatric millennials and baby GenX fangirls were knee-deep in Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan fanfiction, you were still shamed for reading and writing mpreg…slightly less so in fantasy fandoms. But ten years later the early Supernatural fandom had happened and created the omegaverse: still the same ladies, now in their late 20s and 30s and utterly shameless. We had this unhealthy obsession with werewolves and Jared Padalecki‘s dogs. And now, 25 years after Episode I, not only does one no longer need to create reasons for mpreg in reality-based fandoms („So there was this pandemic…“) but the whole internet knows what the omegaverse is. We walked so you could run…or flee; depends on how you look at it. 🤣

      It would be nice if there were more women in the financial space, but if you're looking for good content without the finance bro flavor I'd suggest The Financial Diet (female host), The Money Guys (two male hosts) or I Will Teach You To Be Rich (male host interviewing guest couples). As much as I love Caleb Hammer's channel he's really more for entertainment and less for education, Financial Diet and I Will Teach You To Be Rich both heavily emphasize the psychological aspect of money while The Money Guys are both CPAs and give very easy to understand breakdowns of different financial tools and strategies and they also break things down by age bracket so its easy to gauge where you are currently while offering something to aim at in the future. Hope this helps!

However, recently I was hired on the spot by a job that I basically would have designed for myself right down to the starting time of my shift and the trajectory of where they want me to grow. Rejection is terrible but it happens for a reason.

    My perspective is the matchmaker is successful enough to turn down clients she doesn’t want to work with. And she didn’t like this woman’s personality so she decided to not take her on as a client.

      ​@cat888I doubt this rejected lady was accurately relaying what the matchmaker told her. She was likely embellishing the story to make the matchmaker sound "wrong" so that she could sound more "right" and enjoy the sympathy and attention of being righteous. And stop overusing the word "abusive." It doesn't apply here and it invalidates the experience of people who actually are abused. Smh.

    You are correct, Elle. Rejection equals redirection.
    Honestly, this woman should be grateful that the matchmaker turned her down and told her that she (MM) wouldn’t find her any matches because she (woman) doesn’t have what the MM’s clients are looking for. There are a number of matchmaking agencies who would just take her money while the woman gets no dates. If that MM can’t help her, she should find another one that has the clientele that would be interested in her as well as men that fit her criteria.
    As for the dating market being for the young, that is SO not true. Sure, men love dating younger women, but if you’re a 50-year-old woman, you’re a younger woman in the eyes of a 60-year-old man, and they want to be with you because they get to be with a younger woman yet you’re at a respectable age where you can carry conversations and not get him the side eye at his country club and gala events because you’re not young enough to be his daughter or granddaughter. Ask me how I know 😉.

      Therapy doesn't work equally on all conditions. Some are harder to treat than others. People with cluster B personality disorders (narcissists, histrionics, borderliners) for example tend to not respond well to therapy, because they often lack the ability to introspect or reflect. Even if they try.
      Maybe that's why the matchmaker asked if she's journaling. That's an introspective exercise.

      Because she's attached to the identity of being "type A", the idea of needing to do things she doesn't naturally already do makes her feel like she has to"change" who she is in order to be loved. Her sense of self-worth needs work because she basically rejects any suggestions about tools that will help her become more self-aware and, therefore, attract the best partner for her.

    • @TK-cg4ks

      It sounds like she has a very avoidant personality. Avoidants neglect their emotions / feelings by refusing to acknowledge them. Because of this fear of their own emotions (probably due to childhood), they neglect the emotions of those around them as well. Without introspection she will never find a partner that can satisfy her.

      "to equate journaling with self-awareness seems like a bit of a leap"?????? It's literally all about reflection? How is journalling NOT about self awareness? The more you reflect the more you see your own behavioural patterns, your triggers, your repressed trauma, your insecurity, your strengths, your achievements, your failings, the people you gravitate towards, the people you attract, how you're progressing toward goals.

It's a all about accountability, self love which can make us vulnerable enough to soften which is very attractive. Her refusal to go within leaves her in state of going without the very experiences she desires to have. The woman in the video seems hard and argumentative.

She got offended about being rejected by a group that is looking for soft "woo" women, who she doesn't want to be.....its actually a smidge incel ish of her. 🤷‍♀️
    The match maker made the Professional choice to not take her money for goods she doesnt have and waste everyones time and money...girl just needs a different matchmaker with different clientele looking for her culture and mindset.

      This. There are unscrupulous matchmaking agencies who know darn well that they don’t have clients that would match with her, yet they would blow smoke up her backside and take her money while she gets no dates. That matchmaker had enough integrity to tell her that she wouldn’t be able to match her with clients because the clients aren’t looking for a woman like her. That doesn’t mean that she’s worthless or she needs to change. It means that she needs to go to another matchmaker that has what she’s looking for and has clients that are looking for her.

      so the fact men degenerated the harmless term so hard to be MANLY TESTOSTERONE WAR AGRESSION MANLY SMELL HAIRY -fied
      like so many good /normal terms get ruined by men
      or inventions
      coursettes
      men got salty that women worked /owned factories and the industry
      so they made the beauty standards extreme and made ''a ban for womens health''
      just so women would loose their jobs /factories
      i wish i had a coursette instead a bra my back would feel better xddd
      another is women in video games
      back in the day women were actual women and there were a few as characters etc
      now its mostly sxualised till oblivion
      or ''its woke to have a woman'' or ''women who act like men ''
      like l4d2 women were great and i love rochelle
      homm5 a game realesed in 2006 had half its cast women + units were female [plus one of the first transgender characters raksha rani]
      it didnt have the best writing and unfinished rushed ending cuz ubisoft doodoo
      but yea
      look at good female characters in games /media now
      its raaareeeee
      how to train your dragon also
      2010 the female dragons looked like dragons meanwhile the hidden world made the female dragon pink and ''feminine and glittery'' the concept art for the light furry was better tbh

      The theory of alphas exists just not how he described it because he observed wolves in captive.
      The alphas of a wolf pack are actually a couple, so the alpha male is the father and the alpha female is the mother. The 'betas' are the cubs.
      The 'sigmas' are wolves that left the pack to start their own family/pack.

      It was also found that age was the deciding factor in leadership, they didn't fight each other for dominance it was a matter of age. If the eldest was injured or killed, the next eldest would step up and so on. Also, as noted when wolves traveled the slowest would be out front to set the pace so that the weakest wouldn't be left behind; they set the pace. While the most fit would be last in case one of the other members fell behind or there was an attack that would likely come from behind. Wolves, like humans, work better together with the community in mind not just themselves. These alfalfa men took a "natural structure" and the expression "survival of the fittest" (without the context of the actual work which states that humans have an advantage because of our ability to better adapt to our environments, and not the amount of muscle mass you possess), they took those phrases, added young men 18-25 who are already primed to feel insecure and left behind by the world, and warped their impressionable minds to believe that they were "owed something" from society, especially from girls and women.
      Wolves are community minded; alfalfas are self-centered.

    The person in the video strikes me as someone who is still in an intense survivor mode mindset where she has to exude masculine energy to survive her environment. So when the matchmaker suggests she should soften and open her heart to a relationship, she tensed up become defensive because that would mean losing the mindset that she thinks she needs to survive.
    I think she knows she wants love where someone pours into her (which is why she goes to the matchmaker in the first place and mistaken "alpha" male as someone who is highly accomplished and therefore "implies" to have a lot to offer), but she is not ready to be open and receive love yet. I feel this a lot because I was also in Survivor mode before, and now I have to learn to build a surrounding where I am not constantly in fight mode.

    here's the way i explain to the 'anti woo-woo' girlies why journaling is important: it's basically running a daily mental health diagnostic and identifying weak points in the flimsy fabric of mental stability. when you reflect on your manifestations and have your goals explicitly written in front of you, it's a lot easier to know where the problems to getting there are. and therefore, it's much easier to craft a solution than trying to solve a problem blind. at the end of the day, even people who go to therapy only go once a week for about an hour, and that's not nearly enough time to truly work through what's going on upstairs. daily reflection is necessary and i'm surprised her own therapist hasn't recommended some from of daily written check-ins with oneself

    • @nightingale4786
      @nightingale4786 6 месяцев назад +8

      @amydrawsbeauty imo, everyone can benefit from writing daily! but in terms of what specific structure to use, it probably depends on the individual. when i first started, i was skeptical and didn't even think i had to physically write anything, so what i did was just use my notes app on my phone and make a bullet list of three things i wanted to accomplish by the end of the day, three things i wanted to accomplish by the end of the week and three things that i wanted to accomplish by the end of the year. i got a lot of gratification from checking off the box of the daily or weekly tasks, but i recognized that i still wasn't really making any headway on long-term goals.
      by this time i got a physical journal and pretty gel pens (sounds stupid but having an aesthetic set-up really motivated me to actually write) and stopped setting yearly goals all-together and instead started focusing on three things i could change as well. tbvh i don't have a designated structure anymore on what i write but i focus more on /mindfully writing. the key is consistency until you find what works best for you. good luck on your journaling journey

      Exactly I hate bringing women down, but every time I hear "I'm over qualified" or anything like it I want to say to them that's the problem..because women are all great even the toxic ones have certain attractive qualities, your strength and leadership are not exclusive every woman express it in it's unique way so stop talking about qualities and start act based on it ,that will give you originality and genuineness

      The thing that stood out to me was when she said she was a type A personality and a leader and she wanted a man who was also a leader so she didn't have to plan everything. Made me cringe a bit cause I have met men and women who say this and when they end up with a partner who is also a leader it just leads to a lot of arguments cause either one of them always wants to be in charge and can't compromise or both of them have the same problem.
      Hate to judge people based on so little info but she struck me as being a nightmare to be around. When she said she didn't want "betas" or her definition of betas cause she would chew them up and spit them out signaled to me she had no regard for others if she didn't consider them to be worthy or her.

      For one I think she has a lot of internalized misogyny. The way she was using the incel lingo like alpha and better to describe men. Two I don't think she was willing to let go of control and be vulnerable and allow the matchmaker help out. I do think the matchmaker was wrong in her own way trying to get her to compromise her values when she paid her to find the man she wanted

      Yeah, I got an "off" feeling from her, too. And I'm not slagging on her for being successful/assertive/etc. I get that she was upset in the video, but something about her energy felt very uncomfortable and off-putting, beyond just her being upset. Also, how we present ourselves says something about who we are, and I found her physical appearance after she finished her makeup very odd, for lack of a better word. Specifically the lipstick color and hairstyle--just off-putting, and to me it indicates lack of self-awareness or something.

I don't trust women who cut themselves off from that type of stuff just becuase men told you it's stupid. Guess what? You just centered a man's opinion. "Woo" stuff is my feminine rebellion. I do tarot, am very into astrology, collect crystals, set intentions on a full moon, and have female symbols all over my apartment. I feel lighter when I do these things. That journey has connected me to my feminine aura to the point where it turned my own type A personality into a healthy mix of type AB. If you're religious, I kow some women who do "woo" stuff and still feel connected to God. The girlies who get it, get it and the girlies who don't...well.

No serious seeker takes seriously such nonsense, nor the watered down, highly commodified, westernized and bastardized versions of well-established, great traditions such as the Buddhist and Hindu traditions. If someone were to be a proper neopagan (as disagreable as such revivals are on a practical perspective) they would also be looking elsewhere.

    Edit: I didn’t feel the woman took the matchmakers words as truth about herself, she was simply pointing out that there’s not just one kind of woman that’s “dateable” and she’s correct.
    The matchmaker should have simply said: “I like working with a certain type of woman because I want easy money, I don’t actually want to do anything hard.” Since that’s what she wants. Instead of finding a high energy, high functioning man with a plan, she told this very capable woman to *change herself* to fit a man. A man she wouldn’t even like.

      Or the matchmaker only has a certain database of men who are looking for women that match their energy. Which seems to be women who are softer, or who likes journaling or meditating. There's no telling what words were used since it's still from the perspective of the one making the video, so maybe take what was in the video with a grain of salt? Besides, at least the matchmaker did not try to sell her a dream while knowing that her male clientele might not match with her.

It feels like dimming myself… But I know I can’t just expect people to be able to handle All of me. Or to understand me. I know I’m confusing. I guess this is why I struggle so much with connecting to others in general, not to mention trying to form romantic connections… I tend to stay away from dating because of it. It feels like there is just too much of me for even myself to handle…

      There's nothing wrong with being fluid: being masculine some days and feminine some days. You don't owe anyone but yourself balance & even then if you're a fluid person then you're a fluid person. Self-acceptance and meditation with an eye for achieving balance may help you. Isis can help with this. For example: I was definitely in my masculine energy, but using full moon magic which is feminine. Doing it unabashedly and accepting that "this is me" has helped me come more into balance. NOW, I'm exploring my feminine side, but I do see where some of my masculine traits are beneficial so I'm working to incorporate a little of that in at a time until I'm satisfied with the result. Good luck on your journey!

    Interesting video with a lot of food for thought. You are absolutely right when you say that stepping out of that masculine, competitive life and then stepping back in feels awful. I speak from experience that it absolutely does. Great video, thank you!

    i’m not sure if you share this perspective but i believe we are souls with a human body and our souls have experienced many life times, ancient lifetimes on this earth or lifetimes where we were something far different from a human being. you have the spirit of some sort of divine feminine, you were highly respected and you give off “men went to wars for me” energy. i feel like your soul recognises this and you realise you deserve far more than what you’re being shown in this lifetime and i love how you’re empowering other women to see themselves as the prize. because we are. the egg doesn’t swim to the sperm ladies x

    ... Another person uses the phrase "woo." 🙄
    As a person who meditates, has crystals, and is a psychic medium, I can tell you that it does help to self-reflect, which is a powerful tool in clearing the mind and resetting for the day. However, this doesn't mean she's softer or more feminine -which again somehow means she's more docile and not a strong person. On the contrary. In fact, it's the opposite, which most people don't get about the new age community. For one, we don't ever use the phrase "woo". I don't know where the hell that phrase came from, but NO ONE in that community I met has ever used the phrase to describe this type of lifestyle and I've been in the new age for more than 10 years.
    In fact, women and men who are more self-reflective from meditation become more self-aware and aware of others. Because of this, we see BS faster and know how and when to do our best to avoid it. Once a person learns to live in full authenticity, they begin to see people who aren't living authentically, which becomes a problem in the dating world for most awakened people. An individual who awakens to self-love, self-worth, and honesty begins to expect the same from others, and when people don't measure up to those healthy standards in relationships of any kind, this makes it more difficult to tolerate the intolerable.
    That being said, being a new age doesn't make you softer or more feminine; women who reengage within their divine feminine power and energy realize they've been living more masculine to survive in a manly world. The issue isn't whether or not a woman is more feminine to be accepted in a healthy relationship, but more so can a man accept the fact that being truly feminine means she's accepted both her softer and strong side. And this reveals the problem -most men are intimidated by soft and strong women. I can be soft and sweet but don't cross me through deception, lying betrayal, and manipulation.
    Again it falls down to the fact everyone is judging this woman through only a mere few minutes but hasn't listened to a damn thing she's said. People are commenting on her makeup (which seriously wasn't that much compared to others I've seen), and how old she is. If she were in her 20's I doubt people would react to her in the same way. Women are constantly being berated based on their age, lifestyle, appearances, and other superficial expectations rather than asking what the men were like in their past that led her to where she is today. I get people judging me that same exact way but if you asked me, I'd reveal shocking facts about the way I was treated by abusive men that lead to me to where I am now, empowered and single by choice. Men who are single continue to feel empowered, but if a woman is single, there's always something wrong with her.
    Until society and reactions like this can change the narrative of how women are supposed to behave in order to feel loved, this will forever become a problem. And keep in mind, men statistically die younger and sooner than women -and then we wonder why there are more single women in the world. I've grown up with 5 men in my life whom I loved who were dear friends and family to me, and they all died from fates beyond their control. If several of these men were still a live, I more than likely would've married at least one of them by now, but fate had a different plan. The point of this long rant is that women have constantly been judged since the dawn of time to be "good enough," and when you tell women they're never good enough, then you wonder why men think these women aren't good enough either, and that's the problem.

      it's never been an in community term, it has always been a common way for outsiders to mock it. "woo woo," often. twice.

      I've been "New Age" since I was 12 (I'm currently 42) & woo is short for la la woo woo - it's an old deriding term used by outsiders.

    There’s a lot here but ultimately if this lady was putting the huge responsibility of validating her worth and value, onto a matchmaker she just met, then there’s a good chance she will put that responsibility onto a man she dates, and the matchmaker probably wanted to look out for the well vetted men she also represents. She wouldn’t want to put them with someone who will give the job of maintaining her self worth, to a man, which isn’t his job, and which will also result in a toxic dynamic or at least in an impossible situation for the man

    She definitely has a big blind spot. Too much BDE exuding off.
    I loved how you defined how and why alpha/beta is such a lie and the alpha is often in the dark triad. I think replacing the term alpha with “self-respecting” just fits better.

      Check out Qveen Herby's song BDE - She definitely has it, but it still so feminine :)
      Also check out C.GEANE's song Greetings & Salutations - She exudes BDE, but w/a surreal playfulness :)
