  • Episode 616: She'll wait (why she won't forget about you)
    Apr 24 2026

    Worried she'll lose interest if you're not available to her? In today's episode, I explain why she'll wait when attraction and emotional investment are high. The truth is that your absence might do more to inflame her emotions than your presence ever could. Appreciating the underlying emotional dynamics will help you understand why she won't forget about you – and why insecurity can sabotage your relationship.

  • Episode 615: Disagreeable women (the duty to follow)
    Apr 20 2026

    What happens when strong personalities clash with relationship roles? In this episode, I discuss disagreeable women and why that trait can be an asset in leaders – but a liability in followers. It's for each person to look inside him- or herself and determine whether he or she has the potential for leadership. Those who can't (or won't) lead have the duty to follow.

  • Episode 614: Use the city (get in, get out)
    Apr 17 2026

    Thinking of moving to the big city? In this episode, I explain why it is essential that you use the city strategically – otherwise, it will end up using you. In today's world, cities are best treated as temporary launchpads for opportunity – places to build income or meet a partner. However, once you've secured those advantages, the smart move is to look for the door. Get in, get out. When it comes to real quality of life, smaller cities are the future.
