Crazy Love or Nothing Podcast

Your career is thriving. Your bank account is handled. So why does every man you date turn out to be, in Jackie's words, a loser? In this episode Jackie gets honest about money and dating, the topic most women are too scared to bring up. She tells the truth about her own marriage: when she met Will he was "green light galore," financially savvy with almost zero debt, and she was the...

Are you hyper-independent? If you're a high-achieving woman who handles everything on her own, this one is for you. In this episode Jackie unpacks why the exact masculine, in-control energy that builds your career can quietly repel the secure, emotionally available man who actually wants to show up for you, because there's no space left for him. She shares how she had to shift this right b...

Have you ever been called high maintenance? Jackie has, her whole dating life. In this episode she reframes it completely: the problem was never that she likes the finer things. The problem was the men who made her feel bad about it. She shares how she dimmed her light for years trying to be the "easy, breezy" girlfriend, how meeting Will changed everything (he has never once made her fe...

A guy who won't plan the date, won't make an effort, and whose own sister says he's "lazy" — bye-bye, or give-him-grace? Jackie breaks down a real client story: a few dates in, her client was planning everything and chasing the next date while he coasted. Instead of walking right away, they communicated. He said all the right things… then his actions never matched. Jackie unp...

She only had three dates with a guy. Thank God. In today's episode I'm walking you through the 3 bye-bye moments my client caught with him in just three dates — and how she handled it with so much grace and maturity instead of wasting another season decoding him. Inside the episode: ~01:50 He ends it before he ever communicates his concerns ~02:35 The "massive gap" — ending thing...

Today my mom turns 70. One week ago, I wasn't sure she'd make it here. This birthday-edition episode is for the woman who gave me the four words this whole podcast is named after, and the lesson she taught me this week that I never saw coming. In this episode: (00:00) Where "crazy love or nothing" actually came from (01:24) The lie I told myself about the kind of love my parents...

Some of the non-negotiables on your list are costing you your person. I had a call with a client this week, and one of her "deal breakers" stopped me in my tracks. So I'm pulling back the curtain on what's really happening when we hide behind a list of requirements, and what the REAL deal breakers actually are. If you've been ruling out men over things that aren't actuall...

Twenty years with Will. Nineteen years married. And after we watched Wuthering Heights this week, I realized the one habit that's kept us this in love is the exact thing wrecking your love life right now. In this episode, Will and I unpack why so many women lose connections they could have kept, the "safer" route that's actually the most dangerous thing you can do, and the one ha...

When is it too soon to have sex? If you're asking the question, the answer is probably yes. In this episode, I'm getting real about why rushing into bed is clouding your judgment, costing you clarity, and keeping you stuck in situationships with men who were never going to commit anyway. I'm sharing the exact moment I took sex off the table, why my husband Will was perfectly happy to w...

Think all men just want sex on the first date? Think again, babe. New Hinge data just dropped and 65% of men actually want deep, meaningful conversations on date one. Yes, you read that right. And this changes EVERYTHING about how you've been showing up. In this episode, I'm spilling the tea on what men really want when you sit across from them for the first time — and why your dates have...

So you've seen the TikToks. "Men have given up on dating." "80% of guys don't even want to try anymore." "Men stopped leading." And every time you watch one, a little piece of your faith dies. Here's the truth nobody's telling you. That narrative is not your story. And I'm about to prove it. In this episode, I'm naming exactly what's happen...

You Haven't Even Met Him: The Pre-Date Anxiety Sabotaging Your Love Life He took too long to respond. He rescheduled. He didn't "lock things down" fast enough. And just like that — you've decided he's a douche. Sis. You haven't even met him. The Bye-Bye Queen herself is telling you to pump the brakes. Because the spiral you're in before the first date? That's not intuition. That's anxiety wearing...

I just watched Inside the Manosphere on Netflix by Louis Theroux. It's disturbing. It's gross. And every woman needs to see it. I'm all about empowering women, but I also love men. I'm not a man hater. I believe in finding your person and being teammates. But this documentary shows millions of men following influencers who are openly against women. Who shame them. Who believe women...

Age of Attraction Review – Does Age Really Matter in Love? Let's talk about Age of Attraction. Honestly? I was on the fence. I've always believed age doesn't matter—my grandmother was 20 years younger than my grandfather. What matters is emotional maturity and alignment. But when I started watching? I almost turned it off. Then I kept going. And I actually ended up loving it. Love is B...

She Dumped Him Three Times Before He Proposed – Britney's C.R.A.Z.Y. Love Story (Part 2) Okay, this is where Britney's story gets WILD. In Part 1, you heard how Britney went from skeptic to believer—35, heartbroken, repeating the same patterns, until she finally invested in herself and her love life. Now? Let me tell you how she almost sabotaged the whole damn thing. She met Matt on Cathol...

I have Britney on the podcast today and I literally cannot contain myself. When she first came into my world, she was 35, in law school, drowning in debt, and repeating the same pattern—falling for emotionally unavailable men. She'd just ended a "friendship" with an avoidant that broke her heart even though they were never officially together. Sound familiar? She heard about me throu...

The Love is Blind Ohio reunion is out and it did NOT disappoint. Let me break down everything that went down. Alex – The Grossest Human on This Show I officially hate Alex more than Chris. That's saying something. He had the audacity to say Ashley "hasn't healed from her past relationships" and that's why she was asking so many questions. What a gaslighter. Wrong, Alex. Ashle...

The Love is Blind Ohio weddings just happened. And wow! I have a lot to say. Ashley & Alex – She Finally Saw the Light Ashley said NO. But why did she wait until the altar? She got in a wedding dress just to tell him he has no integrity? Girl—I wish you'd said that weeks ago. She admitted Alex told her multiple times she "wasn't his type." And she stayed?! The lesson: The sec...

Love is Blind Ohio dropped new episodes and I called it. Again. Here's my breakdown—and the dating lessons you need to hear. Alex & Ashley – Textbook Gaslighting Alex got caught lying. Another woman revealed he was living in Austin with an ex—something he never told Ashley. When she confronted him? "Yes I did." No, you didn't. That's gaslighting. Ashley's intuition wa...

Love is Blind Ohio Recap – Red Flags, Snakes, and Why Settling is Never the Answer Love is Blind is back and I have thoughts . This season is based in Ohio and let me tell you—I'm breaking down every couple, every red flag, and every moment that made me want to scream at my screen. And trust me, there's a lot. I'm ranking these couples from absolute worst to the only ones I'm actua...

Happy Valentine's Day, love. 💐 I know — this day can hit different when you're single. And I'm not here to sugarcoat it. But I am here to send you some real love and some real talk. In this episode, I'm coming to you straight from my Valentine's Day (with my gorgeous tulips from Will 🌷) to have a heart-to-heart about what's actually standing between you and the love you d...

I need to get something off my chest. This whole "one day my person will come" energy? Bullshit. I didn't find Will—my husband of 18 years, my best friend, my forever person—by sitting back and waiting for him to magically appear. That's not how this works. I had to get my shit together. I had to stop going with the flow. I had to look in the mirror and ask myself the hard questi...

Ever feel like you're stuck on a hamster wheel of toxic relationships, emotionally unavailable men, and guys who never make you a priority? Yeah, I lived that life too. And after 18 years of marriage to my perfect partner, I can tell you exactly what changed everything: I got the f*ck unstuck. In this episode, I'm getting real about the one thing that kept me attracting the wrong guys over...

I used to do this all the time before I met Will. Stroke their ego. Give them another chance. Stay longer than I wanted to because that's the "nice" thing to do. Bullshit. In this episode, I'm calling out the one pattern that kept me stuck in a loop of dating the wrong guys for years—being the good girl. And if you've ever caught yourself thinking "that would be rude&quo...

Here's the thing nobody wants to say out loud: rushing into bed isn't proving chemistry. It's keeping you attached to the wrong people. In this episode, I'm calling out the biggest lie that's keeping you stuck in situationships—the belief that you need to "test the physical chemistry" early on. I used to believe this too. I was famous (or infamous) for situationships...
