Ep. 37 - I Wrote Down My Dream Partner… 9 Months Later, I Met My Husband | How to Call in Your Soulmate
Episode 37 — Description In October 2014, exhausted by dating and situationships that were going nowhere, I opened my journal and wrote down exactly what I wanted in my future husband. Not just what he looked like or what he did — but the essence of him. How I wanted to feel around him. Safe. Seen. Comfortable. Accepted. I wanted someone who could embrace my shadows, make me laugh, travel the world with me, work hard, stay open-minded, and build a life that could expand and change with us. Then I closed the journal, planted the seed…and forgot about it. Nine months later, I met Brian. But what happened in between is just as important. In this episode of Late Checkout , I'm sharing the full story of how I called in my husband — from the toxic relationship patterns and dating experiences that came before him to the manifestation list I wrote in 2014, the dates that followed, the person who seemed perfect but intuitively wasn't my person , and finally, the first date with Brian that lasted nearly seven hours. More importantly, we're talking about what I think we get wrong about "manifesting" a dream partner. This isn't about creating the perfect checklist, obsessing over when your person will arrive, or becoming some perfectly healed version of yourself before you're worthy of real love. It's about knowing yourself. Knowing your patterns. Knowing your shadows. Recognizing where you self-sabotage. Understanding how you show up in love. Getting clear on the essence of the relationship you want — and then surrendering enough to let life show you the way there. Because when you plant a seed, it still needs to be watered. And sometimes that watering looks like a bad date. A relationship that doesn't work. A trigger that shows you something about yourself. Or meeting someone who isn't your soulmate but teaches you something you'll carry into the relationship that is meant for you. Make yourself the main character in that process. Find the lesson. Find the pattern. Ask the why. And remember: you don't have to be perfectly healed before you meet your person. Your soulmate will be a mirror, too. There will be parts of yourself you can only meet, understand, and grow through once you're actually in that relationship. Plant the seed. Get clear on the love you desire. Bring your full, authentic self with you. And then trust what unfolds.
