The interview

What was your biggest takeaway from the Love and Immersion sessions?

What I learned from the Love and Immersion sessions was that it really starts with self-love. The big aha moment for me was when I realized that one of the people who I loved the most and for the longest period of time in my life was my mother. I happened to look a lot like my mother, so I shifted my thinking and started thinking about how I was sort of a representation of my mother, and then it was easier to love myself.

How would you describe the overall experience of the program?

It's a very worthwhile experience. It's transformative, really, starting with the things that are roadblocks to allowing love into your life. I would say the best thing to do is think in terms of investing in yourself. It's really what it's about—an investment in yourself, not just for the purpose of attracting love into your life, but really feeling worthwhile enough to have that kind of desire that is your heart's yearning in your life.

What specific value does the Manifest Your Man program provide?

The Manifest Your Man program is also very valuable in that it steps you through a whole year's worth of lessons, each taking you through a different aspect of what it's like to go on online dating and how to handle those kinds of situations. It covers how to dress for profile pictures, how to present yourself, getting in touch with your feminine energy, and understanding what it means to be in a healthy and satisfying relationship.

What was a surprising element of the support you received?

What surprised me was having the opportunity to also get some really in-depth one-on-one coaching with a woman named Marnie. Having that extra support on a regular basis has been really just transformative. Marnie really helped me to identify some what I would now refer to as baby steps.

How did the coaching help you with communication and confidence?

I actually got transcripts of our meetings and was able to practice some of those phrases and approaches towards sensitive subjects. That can sometimes feel a little trepidation about going into certain types of conversations, and that really helped me to overcome those. I really felt like my confidence has grown tremendously.

How has this program changed your outlook on future relationships?

Even though I'm in a really wonderful relationship right now, if for some reason it turns out that it doesn't work out, I just feel like I have a whole new toolbox of skills to work with going forward. It also helped me to be clearer about what was really important to me, what really matched with my core values, and my sense of myself and what I deserved.

Full transcript

Julie Forbes,ND (00:03) I'm Julie Forbes from Westbrook, Maine. What I learned from the Love and Immersion sessions was that it really starts with self-love. The big aha moment for me when I realized that, um, one of the people who I loved the most and for the longest period of time in my life was my mother. I happened to look a lot like my mother. So I shifted my thinking and started thinking about how I was sort of a representation of my mother, and then it was easier to love myself. Well, it's a very worthwhile experience. It's transformative, really, starting with the things that are roadblocks to allowing love into your life. I would say, the best thing to do is think in terms of investing in yourself. It's really what it's about. It's an investment in yourself, not just for the purpose of attracting love into your life, but really feeling worthwhile enough to have that kind of desire that is your heart's yearning in your life. The Manifest Your Man program is also very valuable in that it steps you through several lessons, well not just several, it's a whole year's worth of lessons, each taking you through a different aspect of what it's like to go on online dating, and how to handle those kinds of situations. How to dress for the profile pictures, how to present yourself, the way through to dating and getting in touch with your feminine energy, and understanding what it means to be in a relationship. Not just attracting a relationship, but then having that relationship be a healthy and satisfying one. And really, having the opportunity to see from someone outside of yourself objectively, where you're not finding those paradigms within yourself. What surprised me was having the opportunity to also get some really in-depth one-on-one coaching, with a woman named Marnie, and having that extra support on a regular basis has been really, uh, just transformative. So, Marnie really helped me to identify some, what I would now refer to as baby steps. I actually got transcripts of our meetings, and was able to practice some of those phrases and approaches towards sensitive subjects. That can sometimes feel a little trepidation about going into certain types of conversations, and that really helped me to overcome those I really felt like my confidence has grown tremendously. And also the fact that even though I'm in a really wonderful relationship right now, if for some reason it turns out that it doesn't work out, I just feel like I have a whole new toolbox of skills to work with going forward. It also helped me to be clearer about what was really important to me, what really matched with my core values, and my sense of myself and what I deserved. Just having more self-assurance that, yes, in fact, you know, there are a lot of fish in the sea, and the kindest thing you can do is to release someone if it's not going work well for you. So that they can find someone who can work well for them. And also having the words, and the way in which to go about that with these different relationships. Because we all want to, I think, be kind to one another. And certainly kindness has different faces.
