Summary

For this week’s episode of the Highest Self Podcast, I'm sitting down with neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart to unpack the science behind attraction, love, and heartbreak. 🔬

As someone who went through an unexpected divorce in 2022, I've been on a journey of deep excavation work, and let me tell you, it's been eye-opening! 👀

Me and Dr. Tara Swart get REAL about:

The shocking truth about what happens in your brain during heartbreak 💔
Why dating apps might be messing with your dopamine (and your love life!) 📱
The real reason you might be attracted to emotionally unavailable people 🚩
How to actually manifest your soulmate (hint: it's not what you think!) ✨

But that's not all! We're also tackling big questions like:

Is marriage still serving us in 2024? 💍

Should you really "date around" or focus on one person? 🤔

And can you actually manifest your perfect partner? ✨

Whether you're a hopeless romantic lover girlie like me or a dating app skeptic, this episode will give you a whole new perspective on love and relationships.

It's time to ditch the games, embrace your authentic self, and maybe even find true love in the process! 💞It’s time to get neuroscience-y with it.
