Where Are All the Good Men?

However, she faced challenges in the dating world, repeatedly attracting the wrong type of men. Charlene began to doubt the existence of good men.
The Importance of Self-Reflection

Charlene's journey led her to self-reflection. She recognized that her past experiences had left her with certain patterns and energies that influenced her dating choices. She highlights the significance of childhood experiences in shaping one's relationship patterns.

Understanding Female Archetypes

These archetypes help women recognize how they show up in relationships. The goal is to embody the Woman Energy archetype, where self-love, self-leadership, and alignment are central.
Breaking Free from Limiting Beliefs

Charlene's coaching approach focuses on identifying and reframing limiting beliefs. By questioning the validity of these beliefs, women can replace them with empowering narratives that serve their growth. This process creates space for self-love and acceptance.
