In this episode of the 'How to Love Successfully' podcast, host Dr. Mari Kovanen speaks to Communication Expert, Amira Mansour. 

Together, they delve into the importance of effective and conscious communication in shaping successful relationships. 

Amira discusses her journey from experiencing a long, unhealthy relationship and a challenging corporate career to mastering the art of communication, both personally and professionally. She shares actionable tips on identifying authentic communication styles, developing self-awareness, and handling conflicts. 

She suggests focusing on one relationship at a time to improve communication skills gradually. Tune in to learn more about taking control of personal and professional conversations and creating more fulfilling relationships.

Amira’s bio:

Amira aka The Communication Expert works with

companies and individuals to help them communicate

with themselves. This in turn enables them to get the

best out of their relationships. She’s a believer that

communication is the essence of understanding who you

are and creating relationships where you feel heard and

understood makes you feel happier on a deeper internal

level. 

Communicating is something we’re all doing all the

time, whether we realise it or not. However, it’s not

always something we’ve learnt how to do well.

Through a combination of 12 years in the corporate

world, working with a diverse range of people and her

own experiences, she’ll help you learn to understand the

power of your internal dialogue, how this impacts your

work, friendships, relationships and support you to get

the promotion you want, the career you’re dreaming of,

be the business leader you desire, the partner you’ve visualised, to live life on your terms honouring who you were always meant to be.

Whether it’s through her monthly masterclasses, podcast

or 1:1 coaching program, Amira will help you understand

your values, your motivations and your shadow self to

not only be able to stop overthinking what you, but to say

what you mean and communicate as your authentic self.

She’ll guide to be able to resolve the conflict in your life,

assert your boundaries and master the hard

conversations so you get out of the negative spiral of self

talk and communicate with confidence and ease in every

area of your life!

In this episode of 'How to Love Successfully', host Dr. Mari Kovanen, a registered psychologist and conscious dating coach, discusses how to tackle dating anxiety faced by many women. 

Dr. Mari talks about the typical signs of dating anxiety, its impact on life and relationships, and the importance of dealing with it. 

With the help of various therapeutic tools, she suggests self-love practices as a starting point, focusing on feeling good about oneself, understanding feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations, practicing mindfulness, and cultivating self-compassion. Dr. Mari also emphasizes building a healthy self-esteem that is not tied to external factors. 

She also talks about how reprocessing key negative experiences that are directly linked to dating related situations can be reprocessed through EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing).

It is a psychological tool Dr Mari is trained in and it is borrowed from trauma therapy and can significantly help in reducing dating anxiety. This way you can be more open to letting love and find the right relationship for you.

In this podcast episode, Dr Mari delves into the question, "Are men scared of strong women?" Dr Mari begins by addressing the concept of being a strong female leader and how this might affect dating experiences. The episode explores the idea of "strong women" as individuals who are career-focused, outspoken, and goal-oriented, often embodying a classic Type A personality. Dr Mari draws from her 15 years of clinical work and experience in therapy to shed light on the dynamics and energies that come into play in dating.

The episode emphasizes the importance of emotional safety and highlights that both men and women seek comfort and cues for safety during dates. It discusses the interplay of energies in relationships, such as the balance between the doer/provider/leader energy and the being/receiver/intuitive energy. Dr Mari emphasizes that a mismatch in these energies can lead to competition rather than a harmonious connection. The episode concludes by underlining the significance of healthy self-esteem and self-compassion in dating, encouraging strong women to shift gears from their work mode to a more relaxed and open mindset when dating.

By focusing on self-improvement and understanding individual needs, listeners can gain the tools and self-belief necessary to navigate the dating world and ultimately find the right person for a fulfilling and meaningful relationship.

Welcome to "How to Love Successfully" with Dr. Mari Kovanen, a podcast designed for high-achieving women seeking committed, long-term relationships. In this episode, Dr. Mari dives into the crucial role of mindset in dating. She emphasizes the importance of recognizing and challenging limiting beliefs that can hinder your dating journey.

Dr. Mari discusses three common stories that women often tell themselves when it comes to dating. First, the belief that there are no good men out there can be a significant obstacle. She highlights the difference between a closed mindset, where you accept limiting beliefs, and a growth mindset, which encourages exploration and learning in dating.

The second story revolves around the idea that you need to change something about yourself, such as your appearance, to find love. Dr. Mari reminds listeners that they are worthy of love just as they are and offers insights into building self-confidence.

Finally, she addresses the misconception that you need to take control and exert immense effort in dating. Dr. Mari encourages a more relaxed approach, allowing space for meaningful connections to develop naturally.

Listeners are invited to reflect on their own dating beliefs and are encouraged to attend Dr. Mari's upcoming masterclass on 27th of September at 1pm BST / 8am EST to learn more about cultivating the right mindset for successful dating. The key takeaway is that by giving yourself love and nurturing a positive mindset, you can attract the love you desire.

First, she smashes the idea that you need to juggle a bunch of dates to find your match; she's all about strategic dating and self-awareness. Next up, she warns against mistaking those heart-pounding, head-spinning feelings on a date for true love – they could just be jitters. And for the ladies, Dr. Coon drops a truth bomb – waiting for the guy to make the first move in real life isn't always a surefire plan; sometimes, you got to drop some hints.

Throughout this eye-opening episode, Dr. Mari encourages listeners to be mindful of these dating myths and how they might be steering them in the wrong direction. Her expert advice centers on empowering individuals to make conscious and fulfilling choices in their dating lives. So, if you're looking to step up your love game and leave these myths behind, this episode is a must-listen.

The episode breaks down the myth that all those career wins will validate us and be enough in life. Dr Kovanen highlights reality – that job role won't cuddle you when you're feeling down. She gets real about dating too, how the fear of vulnerability can keep us swiping left on potentially great matches. But she's all about finding that balance, embracing the slower side of life, and creating space for genuine connections.

Whether you're a powerhouse or just looking to navigate the modern dating scene, this episode's got you covered. Dr Kovanen delivers insights on making space for vulnerability, appreciating the ebb and flow of life, and inviting harmony into our relationships. So, if you're hustling like there's no tomorrow, it might be time to slow down, tune in, and let some of that strong woman energy take a back seat – just for a moment.

[01:57] Growing up in Finland with a strong woman role model.

In this episode of How to love successfully, Dr Mari Kovanen, a registered psychologist & conscious dating & relationship coach, has a conversation with Kat Hill who is an osteopath, yoga instructor and a business owner about the realities of dating as a high-achieving woman. Dr Mari also offers some tips for making dating more efficient and effective.  

Kathleen Hill (B.Ost, PGCeACE, NLP practitioner)

Kat is an international osteopath, graduating from Oxford Brookes University in 2011. She fell in love with osteopathy after having various dance injuries and seeing the rewarding results of osteopathic treatment. After training as an osteopath Kat continued her education and acquired her PGcE Ace in higher education and has taught as a lecturer on the Osteopathy degree at Swansea University and has also worked as a lecturer in Health and Social care at Gloucestershire College. 

As well as an interest in paediatrics, Kat works closely with many athletes including dancers and competing MMA fighters before and after their tournaments, helping them to achieve their full potential.   

Kat embraces keeping active and healthy living; she is an Advanced yoga instructor, teaching classes around Gloucester weekly. She realised early on in her career that physical pain was connected with mental and emotional health and that inspired her yoga, meditation and breathwork path- further down the line she trained as a neurolinguistics practitioner and wellness coach- she offers online 1-2-1 wellness coaching sessions for those looking to bring awareness to their mindset blocks and helps them create actionable steps to move forward with clarity.

Kat delivers online and in-person CPD events to other osteopaths and healthcare practitioners around the world and speaks to groups on various topics such as mindset blocks, stress and anxiety and how stress shows up in the physical body.

Recently she ran our first yoga and wellness retreat in Malaga, Spain which was incredible and powerful! She is currently running a series of summer Yoga Brunches which has sole out within the first week of release and will be running her next full yoga and wellness retreat in Italy next April.

Kat's mission and purpose is to bring healing, peace and empowerment to as many people as she can.
