Summary
It's one thing to leave the wrong person, but some people worry: "What if he becomes the RIGHT person for someone else? What if he changes and fixes his flaws and I missed out on the "better" version of him?
Matt and Steve talk about where this fear comes from and why it can be so dangerous to live worrying about someone's future potential.

| 0:00.0 | Well we're back with another Love Life podcast. I don't know what episode this is. Steve, |
| 0:26.9 | do you have any idea what episode it is? Is it episode 357? Sure, we don't number our episodes, |
| 0:34.0 | okay? We just give them a few minutes. I choose, makes you number your episodes. |
| 0:39.7 | Well, it doesn't actually. I just realised it doesn't. I'm looking now. Most people's podcasts, |
| 0:44.4 | I see, it's like, you know, podcast episode 187. They must get a sort of feeling of satisfaction |
| 0:50.9 | knowing that they've done that many. I find it a bit intimidating seeing they've got 500 episodes. |
| 0:56.0 | I think, well, I've missed all those. I don't want to see the numbers. I'll never catch up. |
| 1:02.3 | I'll never watch all those Joe Rogan ones now. There's a couple of, there's a review I want to read |
| 1:08.8 | out, Steve. In fact, I just want, I'm not reading out anyone in particular, just a couple of the most |
| 1:13.1 | recent. Maybe we'll do one now and one at the end. But there's someone who says, first of all, |
| 1:20.5 | this is from Lisa. She says, first of all, I feel as though I'm sitting in a room hanging out with two |
| 1:27.4 | buddies. I listen for not only the perspective on life that you provide, but for the laugh out loud |
| 1:33.2 | exchange between two brothers. Listening to you both smirk, laugh and engage in banter is quite |
| 1:39.0 | endearing and entertaining. I've followed you for over 10 years and went to an in-person retreat in 2019. |
| 1:45.1 | How lovely. Literally, you've been instrumental in changing the course of my life. So, of course, |
| 1:50.4 | I had to check out the podcast and I'm so glad that I did. I enjoy the heck out of them. You give |
| 1:55.2 | life advice through humour, empathy and kindness. Thanks for this podcast and allowing us to laugh and |
| 2:01.1 | be part of the conversation. Thanks also for consistently being authentic. Appreciate you both. |
| 2:07.7 | Thank you, Lisa. That's about the loveliest review I could ever hope for. |
| 2:12.5 | That is lovely. Thank you so much. Matt, should I read one about lovely emails? |
| 2:17.1 | Please. So, we've got one from Catherine here. On one of our recent episodes, Matt, you asked |
| 2:24.5 | people to share their epiphany they had from the episode and we had a lot of them. So, thank you so |
