Show Notes

Ever seen those videos promising to “make him obsessed with you in 5 texts” or “7 tricks to make a man worship you like a queen”? Yeah… Hilary’s not having it.

This week, she’s calling BS on the toxic, clickbait dating advice flooding YouTube. From “dark psychology” tactics to straight-up patriarchal conditioning, this advice is designed to manipulate women, keep them second-guessing themselves, and—let’s be honest—get them to buy something.

Hilary breaks down four reasons why these tactics are not just wrong but harmful—and why they’ll never lead to real love. Instead, she gives you the only dating advice you’ll ever need: trust yourself. When you stop twisting yourself into a pretzel to please men, you stop attracting the wrong ones and start naturally attracting the right one.

If you’re tired of playing games and ready to finally show up as the woman you actually are (and be loved for it), this episode is your wake-up call.

In this episode, you’ll learn...

Episode Highlights:
  • Why “clickbait” dating advice is built on manipulation, not empowerment
  • The four major problems with toxic, prescriptive dating tactics
  • How inauthenticity sabotages real connection (and yourself in the process)
  • Why advice centered on him keeps women stuck in patriarchal conditioning
  • The simple, powerful truth: trusting yourself is the only dating advice you’ll ever need

Can you guess the topic of our conversation today?

9
00:00:29.905 –> 00:00:33.685
Yes, we are talking about the worst dating advice for women,

10
00:00:34.105 –> 00:00:36.485
and this just makes me so mad.

11
00:00:37.165 –> 00:00:39.205
I literally pulled these off of some

12
00:00:39.205 –> 00:00:41.205
of the biggest YouTube channels out there.

13
00:00:41.345 –> 00:00:44.085
And yeah, it’s all really clickbait

14
00:00:44.505 –> 00:00:46.325
and maybe why some of those channels are

15
00:00:46.325 –> 00:00:47.525
so big in the first place

16
00:00:47.525 –> 00:00:49.965
because who doesn’t wanna know how

17
00:00:49.965 –> 00:00:52.845
to make a man feel intense love and desire for you?

18
00:00:53.025 –> 00:00:57.245
But I am going to show you why all of this is so very wrong

19
00:00:57.345 –> 00:01:01.525
and instead really the only dating advice you will ever

20
00:01:01.595 –> 00:01:01.885
need,

21
00:01:07.445 –> 00:01:10.005
Feminine energy moves that make him melt.

22
00:01:10.225 –> 00:01:13.445
How to get a guy to like you again, five texts

23
00:01:13.585 –> 00:01:15.925
to make a man fall in love with you.

24
00:01:16.385 –> 00:01:19.565
How to make men worship you like the queen you are,

25
00:01:19.945 –> 00:01:22.245
oh my God, I’m trying not to laugh

26
00:01:22.265 –> 00:01:23.485
and be mad at the same time.

27
00:01:23.905 –> 00:01:25.805
It really is just such b******t.

28
00:01:26.385 –> 00:01:28.445
And while all of that might be intriguing

29
00:01:28.545 –> 00:01:31.085
or fascinating to know, I’m going to share

30
00:01:31.085 –> 00:01:34.285
with you four reasons why all of that kind

31
00:01:34.285 –> 00:01:37.525
of dating advice leads down a rabbit hole of toxic

32
00:01:38.405 –> 00:01:39.805
bullshitty advice for women.

33
00:01:40.065 –> 00:01:42.845
So first, it’s a marketing tactic

34
00:01:43.075 –> 00:01:45.405
that relies on dark psychology.

35
00:01:46.035 –> 00:01:48.605
Dark psychology deals with the darker side

36
00:01:48.605 –> 00:01:52.085
of human behavior such as gaslighting, narcissism,

37
00:01:52.845 –> 00:01:57.005
manipulation, deception and persuasion tactics.

38
00:01:57.585 –> 00:02:01.885
So it’s really about using covert influence to get someone

39
00:02:02.025 –> 00:02:03.605
to do what you want them to do.

40
00:02:04.345 –> 00:02:07.085
All to control, dominate influence,

41
00:02:07.185 –> 00:02:08.605
or take advantage of others.

42
00:02:08.865 –> 00:02:10.325
It sounds gross, right?

43
00:02:10.785 –> 00:02:14.125
So in this case, it is being used on you

44
00:02:14.625 –> 00:02:17.805
and then it encourages you to engage in it.

45
00:02:18.025 –> 00:02:20.205
Here’s how these kinds

46
00:02:20.225 –> 00:02:25.125
of clickbait promises are exploiting and manipulating women.

47
00:02:25.635 –> 00:02:28.565
It’s taking advantage of women who are looking for help,

48
00:02:29.255 –> 00:02:33.165
maybe women are who are looking for help, are feeling lonely

49
00:02:33.705 –> 00:02:36.325
or sad or hopeless or rejected

50
00:02:36.325 –> 00:02:38.885
because they just got broken up with they’re heartbroken.

51
00:02:39.465 –> 00:02:43.805
And these promise a quick, easy fix to solve the pain

52
00:02:43.985 –> 00:02:47.405
and inconvenience of a problem rather than

53
00:02:47.925 –> 00:02:49.405
actually helping women for real.

54
00:02:49.745 –> 00:02:52.005
So just get the guy to like you again.

55
00:02:52.155 –> 00:02:53.525
Just get your ex back.

56
00:02:53.955 –> 00:02:56.365
Just get ’em to ask you out so

57
00:02:56.365 –> 00:02:58.605
that you can feel better about yourself so

58
00:02:58.605 –> 00:03:00.965
that you can can just feel lovable or worthy.

59
00:03:01.425 –> 00:03:05.605
The goal here for them is to get you to click,

60
00:03:06.185 –> 00:03:07.405
get you to watch the video,

61
00:03:07.585 –> 00:03:09.645
and then ultimately to buy something.

62
00:03:09.905 –> 00:03:12.565
But also, which leads me to the second reason,

63
00:03:12.825 –> 00:03:15.405
it is teaching dark psychology tactics

64
00:03:15.705 –> 00:03:20.205
and is encouraging you to engage in these toxic,

65
00:03:20.635 –> 00:03:23.565
unhealthy, disempowering behaviors.

66
00:03:23.785 –> 00:03:28.405
Listen to me right now, never do anything with the goal

67
00:03:28.425 –> 00:03:31.485
of getting someone else to do something

68
00:03:32.115 –> 00:03:33.245
that is manipulation.

69
00:03:33.675 –> 00:03:37.365
It’s totally gamey high quality men don’t fall

70
00:03:37.425 –> 00:03:40.045
for it anyway, and you just can’t control

71
00:03:40.075 –> 00:03:41.605
what other people are going to do.

72
00:03:42.075 –> 00:03:44.245
It’s also just completely inauthentic.

73
00:03:44.745 –> 00:03:46.605
So that causes all kinds of problems.

74
00:03:46.625 –> 00:03:49.925
You end up overthinking your every move rather than just

75
00:03:50.325 –> 00:03:51.525
instinctively responding

76
00:03:51.525 –> 00:03:55.365
and being yourself, being inauthentic pulls you away

77
00:03:55.995 –> 00:03:57.605
from your true, authentic self.

78
00:03:57.825 –> 00:03:59.645
And then you end up betraying yourself

79
00:03:59.865 –> 00:04:02.085
and abandoning your, abandoning yourself

80
00:04:02.175 –> 00:04:03.325
every step of the way.

81
00:04:03.595 –> 00:04:06.085
When you’re not showing up as your real, true,

82
00:04:06.085 –> 00:04:09.165
authentic self, you’ll never really be loved for

83
00:04:09.165 –> 00:04:11.965
who you are, only for what you have shown them,

84
00:04:12.095 –> 00:04:14.205
which is a false version of you.

85
00:04:14.665 –> 00:04:19.205
The third reason is this is prescriptive. It’s prescribed.

86
00:04:19.985 –> 00:04:21.725
Do this thing, do that thing.

87
00:04:22.315 –> 00:04:24.805
Text this, say this, act this way.

88
00:04:25.395 –> 00:04:26.445
Just follow the rules

89
00:04:26.445 –> 00:04:28.645
and do what some person tells you to do,

90
00:04:29.055 –> 00:04:31.605
which has you looking outside of yourself

91
00:04:31.665 –> 00:04:34.365
for the answers rather than turning inward.

92
00:04:34.785 –> 00:04:37.325
And if you’re always going to do what other people tell you

93
00:04:37.325 –> 00:04:39.205
to do, you can’t just relax.

94
00:04:39.785 –> 00:04:42.085
You’re always gonna be looking outside of yourself

95
00:04:42.085 –> 00:04:44.245
for the answers, for someone else to help you,

96
00:04:44.705 –> 00:04:47.965
rather than just trust your intuition, trust yourself

97
00:04:48.505 –> 00:04:51.885
and relax and just be you knowing

98
00:04:52.355 –> 00:04:54.685
that you have all the answers that you need

99
00:04:54.785 –> 00:04:55.805
inside of yourself.

100
00:04:55.995 –> 00:04:58.845
When you show up that way, you’re relaxed

101
00:04:58.945 –> 00:05:00.205
and you’re trusting yourself

102
00:05:00.265 –> 00:05:02.805
and you’re just going with what feels right for you.

103
00:05:03.225 –> 00:05:04.245
You will always win.

104
00:05:04.545 –> 00:05:07.365
And everything that you do has a different energy around it.

105
00:05:07.705 –> 00:05:09.485
And finally, reason number four,

106
00:05:09.515 –> 00:05:11.325
that makes me the maddest of all.

107
00:05:11.915 –> 00:05:15.965
It’s so man-centered rather than woman-centered,

108
00:05:16.395 –> 00:05:20.165
self-centered, all of this advice is about him,

109
00:05:20.635 –> 00:05:23.725
what he wants, how to please him, how to make him happy.

110
00:05:24.105 –> 00:05:26.325
It has you bending and twisting

111
00:05:26.345 –> 00:05:29.325
and abandoning yourself all to just get the guy,

112
00:05:29.745 –> 00:05:33.245
and you get the guy by being what he wants you to be.

113
00:05:33.585 –> 00:05:35.965
It is straight up patriarchal conditioning.

114
00:05:36.075 –> 00:05:37.565
It’s the same old message.

115
00:05:37.575 –> 00:05:39.525
Women have been fed for generations

116
00:05:39.795 –> 00:05:42.645
that there’s a certain way to be in order to be loved.

117
00:05:42.985 –> 00:05:45.965
It reinforces the belief that you have to be someone

118
00:05:45.965 –> 00:05:48.245
that you’re not in order to be chosen.

119
00:05:48.465 –> 00:05:51.845
And ultimately, it’s what the younger kids are calling now,

120
00:05:52.195 –> 00:05:55.925
pick me energy, pick me, pick me, please just pick me.

121
00:05:56.225 –> 00:06:01.165
It is so disempowering to women and it is so very damaging

122
00:06:01.165 –> 00:06:04.325
because the goal becomes to get the guy instead

123
00:06:04.325 –> 00:06:05.605
of be the woman

124
00:06:05.825 –> 00:06:09.045
who naturally attracts the right man when you’re being

125
00:06:09.045 –> 00:06:10.125
your authentic self.

126
00:06:10.265 –> 00:06:12.925
So here’s the truth. The only dating advice

127
00:06:12.925 –> 00:06:15.685
that you will ever need is this.

128
00:06:16.455 –> 00:06:19.805
Trust yourself. It is all about you.

129
00:06:20.315 –> 00:06:22.845
What you want and what you think and what you feel

130
00:06:22.845 –> 00:06:24.885
and what feels right for you and what doesn’t.

131
00:06:25.055 –> 00:06:27.685
Learn to tune in instead of second guessing

132
00:06:27.985 –> 00:06:29.405
or doubting or tuning out.

133
00:06:29.555 –> 00:06:32.285
When you stop questioning your actions, your needs,

134
00:06:32.355 –> 00:06:34.125
your feelings and your worth,

135
00:06:34.545 –> 00:06:37.045
you will always know exactly what to do.

136
00:06:37.865 –> 00:06:40.525
And this is what makes Ready for love so different

137
00:06:40.635 –> 00:06:44.565
because at the core, it is not about tricks or tactics

138
00:06:44.565 –> 00:06:46.845
or dark psychology or manipulation

139
00:06:46.865 –> 00:06:48.245
or getting him to do anything.

140
00:06:48.395 –> 00:06:51.205
It’s about building the kind of relationship with yourself

141
00:06:51.635 –> 00:06:53.565
that allows you to show up this way.

142
00:06:54.035 –> 00:06:56.565
Most women already know what they need to do

143
00:06:57.065 –> 00:06:59.285
and what they don’t know is how to get there.

144
00:06:59.515 –> 00:07:00.605
That is our job,

145
00:07:00.905 –> 00:07:03.925
and we are the absolute best in the world at it.

146
00:07:04.395 –> 00:07:06.605
When you do this deeper work on yourself,

147
00:07:06.825 –> 00:07:08.045
the whole game changes.

148
00:07:08.585 –> 00:07:12.365
You stop chasing, you stop twisting yourself into pretzels,

149
00:07:12.585 –> 00:07:14.245
and you finally become the woman

150
00:07:14.385 –> 00:07:17.725
who naturally attracts the kind of love that you’ve wanted,

151
00:07:17.865 –> 00:07:20.365
all along with ease and grace.

152
00:07:20.545 –> 00:07:21.925
And it’s just effortless

153
00:07:22.065 –> 00:07:24.165
and it’s actually fun and enjoyable.

154
00:07:24.345 –> 00:07:27.525
If you’re ready to naturally just attract the kind of love

155
00:07:27.525 –> 00:07:28.525
that you’ve always wanted

156
00:07:28.585 –> 00:07:31.565
and stop all the game playing, all the manipulation,

157
00:07:32.105 –> 00:07:34.165
all the shallow surface level dating advice

158
00:07:34.165 –> 00:07:35.685
