“Where can I meet a good guy?”

It’s the question I get more than any other.

But what if that question is keeping you stuck?

In this episode, I challenge the belief that your love life would improve if you just moved to a better city, downloaded the right app, or stumbled into the perfect meetup. The truth is, good men are everywhere. The real problem is how you choose them.

If you’ve ever jumped into a relationship too fast or ignored early red flags because the chemistry felt rare, this episode will hit home.

You’ll learn how to slow things down, trust your judgment, and finally feel like the CEO of your love life.

Listen now and start choosing better men, no matter where you meet them.

Where Can I Meet a Good Guy?

Think you’re being smart and self-protective in dating? You might be. But you also might be scaring off the exact men you’re hoping to attract. In this episode, I share a new concept that may change how you show up with men. You’ll learn why emotionally available men might not be drawn to you, how your energy affects the guys who stick around, and how this same pattern plays out in men.

If you’re tired of attracting the wrong guys and wondering why the right ones disappear, this episode will give you a whole new perspective.

You’re (Accidentally) Repelling The Good Guys!

Throw Away The Rulebook in Your Head!

What if aging made you more desirable, not less? In this episode of the Love U Podcast, I sit down with Chip Conley—author, entrepreneur, and founder of the Modern Elder Academy—to talk about love, identity, and reinvention in the second half of life. We explore the difference between aging and “saging,” how men experience loneliness and intimacy, and why dating in midlife offers a deeper kind of connection. Chip shares his own lessons on grief, self-worth, and emotional fluency—and how women can stop internalizing cultural myths about becoming invisible. If you’ve ever wondered whether your best years in love are behind you, this conversation will shift your mindset and open your heart.

About Today’s Guest:
Chip Conley is on a midlife mission. After disrupting the hospitality industry twice, first as the founder of Joie de Vivre Hospitality, the second-largest operator of boutique hotels in the U.S., and then as Airbnb’s Head of Global Hospitality and Strategy, leading a worldwide revolution in travel, Conley co-founded MEA (Modern Elder Academy) in January 2018 in Baja California, Mexico. Inspired by his experience of intergenerational mentoring as a ‘modern elder’ at Airbnb, where his guidance was instrumental to the company’s extraordinary transformation from fast-growing start-up to the world’s most valuable hospitality brand, MEA is the world’s first ‘midlife wisdom school’ and has a 2,600-acre regenerative horse ranch in Santa Fe, New Mexico which opened in May 2024. Dedicated to reframing the concept of aging, MEA supports students to navigate midlife with a renewed sense of purpose and possibility. A New York Times bestselling author, Conley’s 7th book “Learning to Love Midlife: 12 Reasons Why Life Gets Better with Age” is about rebranding midlife to help people understand the upside of this often-misunderstood life stage and he was asked to give a 2023 TED talk on the “midlife chrysalis.”

The Midlife Manifesto – Interview with Chip Conley

What if your biggest fear in dating isn’t rejection—it’s investing time, money, and hope into change…only to feel like nothing works? In this episode of the Love U Podcast, I share a powerful conversation with a client who overcame that exact fear and discovered why success in love is never about luck. We’ll explore how to break free from dating inertia, replace limiting beliefs, and build the confidence to attract the right man. You’ll learn why results come from deliberate action, not passive hope—and why fear of failure is the very thing keeping you stuck. Listen in and find out how to take control of your love life starting today.

What You’ll Hear:

 * Why fear of failure — not men — is the #1 reason women hesitate to invest in dating coaching.
 * The truth about my 100% success rate (and what “success” really means in Love U).
 * How coaching differs from therapy, self-help books, and passive dating advice.
 * The three biggest transformations I can virtually guarantee in six months of working together.
 * Why “doing nothing” guarantees the same disappointing results you’ve been getting.
 * How building dating confidence affects every other part of your life.
 * Why dating is a skill — and how to master it with structure, accountability, and practice.
 * The “Biggest Loser” metaphor for personal growth and why small wins still count as success.
 * My own history of repeated failure — and why it made me better at love (and at coaching).
 * A pep talk for taking action now so you can create the love you deserve.

Full Episode Transcript:
Exciting episode today. Sincerely excited because it’s different. It’s not just dating advice today.

This is much larger. So, I’m really going to encourage you to stick around. And this is based on a conversation I had with a current client who’s working through her fear of failure.

So, the truth that I understand about most people who are listening to the Love U podcast right now is that they would invest their hard-earned money for dating coaching. They’re not worried that I’m an unethical operator. Their biggest fear that, again, I’m discovering late in life, their biggest fear is that they’re going to hire me as a coach and nothing is going to change.

So, if you’ve ever listened to this podcast and thought, maybe I should hire him, but I’m really worried that it’s not going to work, I want you to listen to this podcast and I want you to hear why I have a 100% success rate. Stick around. My name is Evan Marc Katz.

This is the Love U podcast. I thank you for listening. If you haven’t already, subscribe on YouTube, Spotify, Apple, leave us a positive review, go and tell a friend about us.
We’re making a small difference in our corner of the internet here. Just a reminder that next installment of the Extraordinary Love Series is this Wednesday. I’m doing a Zoom call followed by a live Q&A.

The topic is what high-quality men want in a long-term partner. If you haven’t already, go to extraordinaryloveseries.com [http://extraordinaryloveseries.com], register for free, and I’ll see you in class. It should be a lot of fun.

So, a few months ago, I did an episode of this podcast on fear, why it’s a real thing, but fear is always the problem and never the solution. So, we just have to kind of talk about fear because it undergirds every conversation about dating, relationships, sex, and men. It’s generally not men that my clients are afraid of.

It’s failure. It’s putting themselves in another situation, making themselves emotionally vulnerable, and ending up right back where they started, right? Feeling bad about themselves, feeling bad about their pro

What If I Hire You and It Doesn’t Work?

Ever wonder if it’s possible to start over—emotionally, romantically, even financially—at 60? In this episode, I talk with Victoria, a powerhouse of resilience who walked away from a 30-year marriage, faced down fear, and built a brand-new life from the ground up. We explore what it really takes to leave a relationship that looks fine on the outside but feels empty on the inside, how to trust yourself again after decades of self-doubt, and why reinvention isn’t just possible—it’s powerful. If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re too old or too late for lasting love, Victoria’s story will show you what’s possible when you finally put yourself first.

What You’ll Hear:

 * I talk with Victoria, a sharp, 72-year-old Love U graduate from Phoenix, who rebuilt her life and love story after a 30-year marriage ended in her 60s.
 * You’ll hear how she went from terrified and isolated post-divorce to confidently dating—and why she rejected the belief that women over 60 are “undesirable.”
 * We discuss why opening yourself up to men from different backgrounds (not just your “type”) can lead to unexpected, fulfilling connections.
 * Victoria shares the powerful mindset shift that helped her let go of “good guys” who weren’t a true fit—without guilt, drama, or wasting years.
 * We explore how she learned to embrace her feminine side and allow men to “do for her,” even though she’s perfectly capable on her own.
 * You’ll hear the story of meeting her current partner online at 68, navigating a long-distance relationship, and creating a deep, mutual adoration.
 * We unpack why “easy” and “agreeable” are underrated traits in a partner—and how to look beneath the surface to find lasting compatibility.
 * Victoria reveals what she wishes her younger self knew about choosing the right man, and why she believes love is possible at any age.
 * Finally, she explains how Love U’s community and male perspective on dating helped her rewrite her relationship future.
