0:00.0	Hello, friends, and welcome back to the Liz Moody podcast. There is one idea that has completely
0:05.8	changed my life, my relationships, my friendships, my career, and the way that I move through the
0:11.7	world. And when I say changed, I mean, everything feels easier, everything feels lighter,
0:16.2	everything feels more aligned. I don't chase. I don't force. I don't waste my time in spaces that were not meant
0:23.5	for me. And because of that, I feel more fulfilled. I feel more successful and more at peace than I

1:13.1	are naturally aligned with who you truly are.
1:16.2	One of the biggest mistakes that we make in life is trying to change our authentic self,
1:21.1	to get friends, to start habits, to get jobs, to date.
1:25.2	I actually originally came up with the idea for match theory when I was hanging out
1:29.0	with one of my friends while she got ready for a second date. And she was doing her makeup and
1:33.9	we were plotting all of these different ways for her to get this guy to fall in love with her.
1:39.8	She was literally at one point Googling sports facts despite not being a person who cares about sports
