Hello planethoners. My name is Jen Burton and by day I am the romantic fairy godmama for smart, successful single women around the world@havehimyourway.com which is code for I help single women date. And by other parts of the day, I'm also founder of Happy HealthyAndHotsociety.com as an online business owner like you, I definitely understand the excitement that comes about when you are planning your biz empire growth for the coming year. Some of us geek out at planners, organization tools and office supplies. Some of us get giddy at picturing the possibilities of the next year. But all of us have a really special why we are doing this that most of the time has nothing to do with business at all. Underneath it all, each of us is doing this for the anticipated freedom and flexibility that being an entrepreneur can provide in our special relationships with family, significant others, children and friends. Specifically today, I want to address your romantic relationships as you build your business empire. Because the truth is that our entrepreneurial gigs actually come with a dirty little secret that we don't like to talk about as much as we should. What's that dirty little secret? Well, building a business empire in truth requires a lot of our attention and dedication, which leaves many entrepreneurs with little mental and emotional bandwidth to significantly enjoy our romantic relationships or draw in someone special. Having a great love life functions as magical fuel for what you want to achieve in business, but I do know that it can be difficult to segregate your attention when you have so many pretty hats to wear in business. It's also difficult to go from zero to sexy when you've been on a computer all day and your face feels jacked up like this. By the way, computer screens are soul sucking. Make sure you wear protection. So in this video I'd like to share with you four easy peasy gateways to romance that can help you reconnect to your guy if you've been distant for a while, or that you can use as a lifeline during high stress times in your business such as a launch or when dealing with a great, great client. This way, your current relationship or your future one for my single gals never becomes collateral damage as you construct your business empire. Now your first gateway or lifeline to romance is planning, which for some of you seems counterproductive to romance but can have a huge, and I do mean huge effect on your love life. Look, I know planning out business seems like a logical thing to do and we all want our romance with a large side of spontaneity But I want you to be honest here. Raise your hand if you've ever had trouble transitioning from work to home life. And working from home can make this a very special kind of difficult. Why? Because we don't have a set closing time and our lives become one long workday. Setting time aside for dates with your man or dates with your potential man for my single gals sends a trigger to your brain. That work is done and now you have permission to experience romantic connection. Once your brain starts to get this message at regular intervals, then your body will start to relax more quickly for the possibility of romance. And of course then there's always the opportunity for some hot steamy sex. And I'll stop right there because I don't think I need to recite all of the benefits of hot sex with your man for you. Of course, if you need me to, just shoot me a message. Next Gateway lifeline to romance Numero Dos Laughter and Playfulness A not well recognized fact is that long term attraction has a super strong foundation in laughter and playfulness. Which means one of the best ways to continuously connect to your man over the years without having to have your sexy wax and primped constantly is by allowing yourself to let your goofy you're quirky, definitely your nerdy and of course your silly or even dark sense of humor all hang out. Find different ways and dates you can go on that give you two the opportunity to laugh till you cry together. Play a practical joke on him. Show him that woman who doesn't take everything so seriously and who understands her playful geeky side is much sexier than her high end lingerie. But. But by the way, playfulness, laughter plus high end lingerie his mind blown. Okay, for number three, I'm going to drop some not so fun romantic truth on you. Romantic fairy godmama style. Most of us think that our men really know how we feel about them. And as women, we believe ourselves to be such good communicators. We think we know how to explain what we are feeling. But what a lot of us are really good at is fault finding. Lots of women have no problem acknowledging or focusing on everything he has done wrong. Which mainly means he hasn't done the things the way that she would have done. You see, long term love thrives when partners know that they are appreciated, desired and understood. And I'm not saying that there are no men that exist that have this problem with fault finding. I am saying however that we women have a special gift for it. We also have a special gift for primarily acknowledging what we don't want instead of appreciating what men bring to the table for us. Hence, time and time again, women speak to men in a way that is actually killing their chances at long term love. Which brings me to Gateway Lifeline Number the Appreciation Bomb the Appreciation Bomb is the unexpected, small yet hit em hard dose of appreciation that you are going to drop on your man periodically. It packs a powerful punch that resonates for days or even weeks at a time with the men in your life. The execution is quite simple. This is a short, seemingly random statement about something you like about your man or a man you like that you say to said man. It can range from damn, I really like what you do for that T shirt to Heads up. It means a lot to me that you support my entrepreneurial dreams even though you're not always quite sure what I'm up to. The key here is to keep it brief, keep it genuine and do not feel the need to elaborate which will dilute the potency of what you've said. You can follow up with a quick subject change or an as you were statement. And by the way, this does work well via text. Now finally the big one. Physical Touch Ladies, when you are under stress, it can be super easy to pull your physical affection away from the men in your life, which in many cases leads to more stress. I'm not going to elaborate too much here and I'm going to ask you to trust me on this one. Be willing to reach out with affection. Affectionate touch. Be willing to grab his arms and wrap them around your waist. Put your hands on his chest and feel his pecs, grab his buttocks and squeeze. Most men really enjoy your physical affection and it lets him know that he is still important to you. Plus, it's also a great signal to your brain once again that you are no longer in work mode. To wrap up this video, I have an assignment to help you with the four gateways or lifelines to romance. Take out a clean sheet of paper and first I want you to write down 10 things that are sexy, hot, quirky, funny, exciting, admirable, dorky and interesting about you. Now I know some of you already want to skip over this exercise, but don't. Don't even think about it. It's a crucial piece to putting together not just your romantic gateways and lifelines, but also your entire love life. Because believe it or not, these are the things that make you mesmerizing and irresistible to your man. And if you are single to men, that you will date. But if you don't own and acknowledge these things about yourself, then he won't have a clue either. And it can be really hard for some of us to talk about ourselves in this way. Luckily for you, I've got help for you. Underneath this video I will provide a link of examples from my clients to get you started. After you finish your 10 things that are sexy, hot, quirky, funny, dorky, exciting, admirable and interesting about you, then I'd like you to write down two dates you would like to have over the next six months, which would be a likely laugh fest, followed by two dates that you would just love to have. These don't have to be laugh fest dates, it's whatever turns you on. Next, I want you to write down 10 things that you love about your man and if you're Single, write down 10 things you would love to have in your man. Finally, write down five five appreciation bombs that you will use with your man. If you're single, write five for a man that you are either dating or that will come into your life. Okay your hotness. I've got a good feeling about business and romance for you this next year. If you have any questions, feel free to shoot me a message. And here's to your life, love and business empire.
