Dating after a divorce or significant breakup can feel confusing, exhausting, and deeply vulnerable.
You may feel ready to put yourself out there- like you've spent enough time releasing your last relationship...
And yet somehow, you find yourself attracting the same types of people, repeating the same dynamics, or wondering why dating still feels so hard.
The truth is that most women don't struggle because they haven't learned enough dating strategies. They struggle because they haven't identified the unconscious patterns that are quietly running the show.
In this episode, I share a radically different approach to dating after heartbreak - one that moves beyond surface-level advice and helps you understand what's really happening beneath your choices, attractions, and relationship experiences.
We explore:
- Why time alone doesn't automatically heal relationship patterns
- The hidden dynamics that keep women attracting the same experiences over and over
- How your unconscious patterns influence who you're drawn to
- The difference between genuine compatibility and familiar chemistry
- Why dating can feel so discouraging when you're unknowingly operating from old wounds
- What it actually means to prepare for healthy love
Whether you're newly divorced, healing from a breakup, or have been single for years, this conversation will help you see dating through an entirely new lens.
Because finding love isn't about becoming more desirable.
It's about becoming more conscious.
Ready to Go Deeper?
I want to personally invite you to join me for my 3-Day Expanded Love Masterclass.
For over 15 years, I've helped women uncover the hidden patterns that sabotage love, fulfillment, confidence, and the life they truly desire.
The reality is that most women don't realize their patterns are leading. They think their circumstances are the problem. They think they need a better dating app, more confidence, more healing, or a different strategy.
But what if the thing standing between you and the love you want isn't outside of you at all?
Inside the Expanded Love Masterclass, I'll be teaching the 5 unconscious relationship archetypes that sabotage women from creating the extraordinary relationships and lives they're meant to experience.
You'll discover:
- Why you keep repeating the same relationship dynamics
- The unconscious behaviours that block intimacy, connection, and love
- How your patterns show up in dating, relationships, work, friendships, and life
- What it takes to step into a new way of relating to yourself and others
- How to move from surviving love to truly experiencing it
This isn't about fixing yourself. It's about finally seeing what has been running your life behind the scenes. Because when your patterns stop leading, everything changes.

If you're dating again after a divorce or
Kate Harlow:breakup, you're putting yourself out there, maybe you're starting
Kate Harlow:a new relationship. Understanding your saboteur
Kate Harlow:intimately is everything. This is the first step. When you're
Kate Harlow:out there dating, you want to write a new story. Yes, right?
Kate Harlow:If you, if you're not no longer with your husband or with your
Kate Harlow:partner, and you're, you're single again, and you're out
Kate Harlow:there dating, or you're starting a new relationship. Do you want
Kate Harlow:to have a new experience, or do you want to have the exact same
Kate Harlow:one you had before? Your saboteur will try and make it
Kate Harlow:the same as the one before.
Kate Harlow:Hello, beautiful. Welcome back to the New Truth Podcast. Kate
Kate Harlow:Harlow here, tuning in from Nairobi, Kenya. I have a couple
Kate Harlow:more weeks left here in Nairobi, and then I am off to America.
Kate Harlow:First, I'll stop in Paris for a couple days, meeting a friend
Kate Harlow:there, and then I will head to California for two weeks, which
Kate Harlow:is fun. I'm going to see Mariana, my soulmate. As those
Kate Harlow:of you who know Marianna, she's been on the podcast many times,
Kate Harlow:and she, she's in California right now, because her mama,
Kate Harlow:she's kind of spending more quality time with her mama in
Kate Harlow:Orange County, so I'm going to go visit her for a couple of
Kate Harlow:weeks, and I'm doing a workshop, weekend workshop for my
Kate Harlow:beautiful heroine sisters in Ojai at the very end of the
Kate Harlow:trip, and then I head to Vancouver for five weeks, and
Kate Harlow:then I will fly from Vancouver to Greece, stop over and visit
Kate Harlow:my friends in Greece in September, and then back to
Kate Harlow:Nairobi later in September. So there's my travel schedule. Case
Kate Harlow:you were wondering, Where in the World is Kate Harlow? There used
Kate Harlow:to be a TV show, I don't know if it was just in Canada, but it
Kate Harlow:was, where in the world is Carmen Sandiego, and it was this
Kate Harlow:like man who was always just somewhere in the world, and he,
Kate Harlow:there was a big world map, and yeah, he would go on these
Kate Harlow:adventures, that's all I remember, but now it's where in
Kate Harlow:the world is Kate Harlow, so I am enjoying my last couple weeks
Kate Harlow:at the cottage, I have a dear friend here, Brandy. Shout out
Kate Harlow:to Brandy for those of you, many of you who've worked with me
Kate Harlow:know Brandy, because she comes to the immersion and all my
Kate Harlow:events. She's magical, and she's staying with me at the cottage,
Kate Harlow:so it's really nice to have visitors and to share my magical
Kate Harlow:space, which now she wants one. She wants a cottage exactly the
Kate Harlow:same as mine. It's such a cute space, so yeah, feeling
Kate Harlow:grateful. And what else do I have to share with you? I
Kate Harlow:usually give you little personal updates at the beginning of each
Kate Harlow:episode. I, well, the Expanded Love Masterclass is coming up,
Kate Harlow:and if you are available the 19th, 20th, 20-first of June.
Kate Harlow:Register, I have now made it free, so it was 20-$2 but now
Kate Harlow:it's totally free, because my heart was just like, I just want
Kate Harlow:as many women there as possible, so that you can receive this
Kate Harlow:information. The understanding your saboteur is essential, and
Kate Harlow:we're going to talk so much about that today, for
Kate Harlow:relationships, for work relationships, for your purpose,
Kate Harlow:for really learning how to create a life that you love, you
Kate Harlow:must intimately know your saboteur, and every woman I've
Kate Harlow:ever worked with will agree, I'm sure, share with you how
Kate Harlow:important it is, because most of us believe our saboteur is our
Kate Harlow:personality, like that's just who we are. Oh, it's just my
Kate Harlow:personality. I'm just super overly emotional, or I'm a
Kate Harlow:perfectionist, or I'm a controller. I'm a.. I just am a
Kate Harlow:people pleaser, right? We just think these ways of being are
Kate Harlow:our nature, but they're actually not our nature at all. They're
Kate Harlow:learned, and so I hope you enjoyed last week's episode with
Kate Harlow:Jackie Jade. That was such a special conversation with the
Kate Harlow:woman who I've worked with for a couple of years now, and just
Kate Harlow:witnessing her completely reclaim herself, her life, meet
Kate Harlow:new parts of herself, and she is absolutely, in every sense of
Kate Harlow:the word, a completely different woman to the woman I met three
Kate Harlow:years ago, and that's the same, is true for every woman who just
Kate Harlow:did the immersion.
Kate Harlow:We just did our follow-up, second follow-up immersion call.
Kate Harlow:We have these integration calls after, and every single one of
Kate Harlow:them is so different, and now they're most of them are coming
Kate Harlow:to meet me in Ojai in July. It's so profound to see a woman like
Kate Harlow:really start to understand. Wait a second, I am not my patterns,
Kate Harlow:like that is the most important thing for you to know. And
Kate Harlow:there's so many layers to these patterns that studying them and
Kate Harlow:understanding them is essential. So, circling back to the
Kate Harlow:Expanded Love Masterclass, June 19, 20th, 20-first is the dates,
Kate Harlow:it's from 8am Pacific till 10am Pacific every day, Friday,
Kate Harlow:Saturday, Sunday, and it is absolutely the most amazing
Kate Harlow:experience. So this is Expanded Love Masterclass, where I teach
Kate Harlow:the five saboteur archetypes, and we're going to go through
Kate Harlow:them today, and you're going to have such a. Deep understanding,
Kate Harlow:not only for what the pattern is, but also what the gift is.
Kate Harlow:It's so important to understand what the gift is in the pattern,
Kate Harlow:because we're not going to throw the baby out with the bathwater.
Kate Harlow:Each pattern has inherently has really important gifts that are
Kate Harlow:a reflection of your heroine, of your soul. And so this weekend
Kate Harlow:I'm going to teach you all about the patterns that are different
Kate Harlow:archetypes that the saboteur plays out, most women have all
Kate Harlow:of them happening at the same time. It's very common because
Kate Harlow:we've really been deeply programmed to be all of them as
Kate Harlow:women. And so each day I'm going to go through two archetypes.
Kate Harlow:The first day I'm going to do some teaching first, and then
Kate Harlow:the first archetype, then the next two, then the next two, and
Kate Harlow:we'll do a Q and A on the on the Sunday at the end, and I'll give
Kate Harlow:you little assignments each night to do some reflecting on
Kate Harlow:on understanding yours, but this is like a weekend of true self
Kate Harlow:love, because true self love, I so many women are trying to do
Kate Harlow:self love from hating themselves and from being in their saboteur
Kate Harlow:and in their small self, and it is nearly impossible. I tried to
Kate Harlow:master this when I was in my saboteur full time, and I really
Kate Harlow:tried to embody self-love, and I couldn't, because it was my
Kate Harlow:saboteur that was trying to do it. So, the first step in
Kate Harlow:breaking free from living life in a way that feels bad, aka you
Kate Harlow:have anxiety, or you have depression, or you are
Kate Harlow:constantly questioning everything, or you're constantly
Kate Harlow:in your head worrying about everything, or you're constantly
Kate Harlow:disappointed by other people, or you isolate yourself, and you
Kate Harlow:hide in your apartment, and you don't actually go, you know,
Kate Harlow:connect with people deeply, or nobody sees who you really are,
Kate Harlow:or whatever, whatever patterns are playing out for you. This is
Kate Harlow:the part of you that you need to understand intimately, so that
Kate Harlow:she doesn't have the power over you anymore. Because when you
Kate Harlow:learn to build a healthy, loving relationship with this part of
Kate Harlow:you, but no longer identify with her, she will not be so strong,
Kate Harlow:and now you have choice. Now you have awareness. First step, then
Kate Harlow:you have choice, choice to make have new experiences to see
Kate Harlow:things differently. But if you think your patterns are just who
Kate Harlow:you are, right, Joe Dispenza says our personality is simply
Kate Harlow:our personal reality that we developed based on our
Kate Harlow:conditioning, right, based on the world around us, based on
Kate Harlow:what every system around us taught us who to be. All the
Kate Harlow:systems that taught us who to be something other than who we are.
Kate Harlow:What systems are my talking about? Your family system, your
Kate Harlow:school system, the media system, the government system, the
Kate Harlow:pharmaceutical system, the what else, beauty system, beauty
Kate Harlow:industry, religious systems. Like, there are countless
Kate Harlow:systems that you were raised in that morphed you and brainwashed
Kate Harlow:you into believing who you had to be in this lifetime in order
Kate Harlow:to survive, in order to be safe, in order to get love,
Kate Harlow:acceptance, approval from society, from people in your
Kate Harlow:life, and so there is a little girl inside of every single
Kate Harlow:woman and man, but we're talking to women here, if you're a man,
Kate Harlow:though, this is for you, that is running the show, and this
Kate Harlow:system, as at, like, it, it's actually like Chat GPT, okay?
Kate Harlow:This is like a robot that's just like waiting for you. She's
Kate Harlow:ready, she's got a story. How many? How many times have you
Kate Harlow:made up a story immediately just based on someone's facial
Kate Harlow:expression? Like someone looks at you funny and right away
Kate Harlow:you're like, oh my god, they're mad at me. It must have been
Kate Harlow:that thing I said last week and did, and the story gets written
Kate Harlow:immediately. It's the same as ChatGPT, like you asked ChatGPT
Kate Harlow:to write an email, even a complex one. I want to say she,
Kate Harlow:because mine's called Lulu. She does it immediately. It's like,
Kate Harlow:so fast. Like, how could you possibly write that email so
Kate Harlow:fast? Your saboteur is the same. Your saboteur will write a story
Kate Harlow:so fast that you can't even question it. You're like, oh, it
Kate Harlow:must be true. It's like right here, waiting for me. That is
Kate Harlow:your saboteur. So, understanding your saboteur intimately is a
Kate Harlow:game changer, especially if you were dating again. You clicked
Kate Harlow:on this episode because you're dating. I know a lot of you
Kate Harlow:listen to every episode, regardless if you're married or
Kate Harlow:if it's relevant to you or not, but this is relevant to
Kate Harlow:everyone. If you're dating again after a divorce or breakup,
Kate Harlow:you're putting yourself out there, maybe you're starting a
Kate Harlow:new relationship. Understanding your saboteur intimately is
Kate Harlow:everything. This is the first step. So, I've kind of already
Kate Harlow:started the episode without realizing it. That's the first
Kate Harlow:step, right? You have to intimately know your saboteur.
Kate Harlow:Why? Because when you're out there dating, you want to write
Kate Harlow:a new story. Yes, right. If you, if you're not no longer with
Kate Harlow:your husband or with your partner, and you're, you're
Kate Harlow:single again, and you're out there dating, or you're starting
Kate Harlow:a new relationship, do you want to have a new experience, or do
Kate Harlow:you want to have the exact same one you had before? Your
Kate Harlow:saboteur will try and make it the same as the one before.
Kate Harlow:Compare, you know, this new person to to past partners, and,
Kate Harlow:and, and she'll probably be like, oh, I never want what I
Kate Harlow:had in the past again, until this new person's in front of
Kate Harlow:you, and then she'll be like, your ex used to do these things,
Kate Harlow:now this guy's not, there must be something wrong with him, or
Kate Harlow:like, maybe he's not the right one, because he's not doing all
Kate Harlow:those things, meanwhile you're in that relationship, not, you
Kate Harlow:know, disappointed by all the things that guy was and wasn't
Kate Harlow:doing, and now you know, projecting it onto this future
Kate Harlow:person. So, the most important thing going into relationship is
Kate Harlow:that you allow a new relationship to occur, but we
Kate Harlow:don't do that. What does the saboteur do? The saboteur paints
Kate Harlow:a new story, pardon me, an old story onto the new person.
Kate Harlow:Right, as soon as you start dating, your saboteurs
Kate Harlow:projecting all over that person, projecting what you don't want
Kate Harlow:them to be based on your last relationship, projecting what
Kate Harlow:you want them to be, projecting all your wounds, all your hurts.
Kate Harlow:She's walking in with guards around her heart, because she's
Kate Harlow:like, 'Hey, I've been hurt in the past before, and I don't
Kate Harlow:want that to happen again, so I'm going to be like walking on
Kate Harlow:eggshells here, or I'm going to be looking for red flags, or I'm
Kate Harlow:going to be on high alert, trying to make sure you're not
Kate Harlow:that person, right? But what that is, do what you're doing in
Kate Harlow:that moment is you're actually recreating the same situation,
Kate Harlow:because you're walking into that date, or this new relationship
Kate Harlow:with all your baggage, you're wearing like a, you know, 50
Kate Harlow:kilogram bag on your back, and you're like falling backwards,
Kate Harlow:exhausted, like dripping with sweat, because you're taking all
Kate Harlow:your baggage into that next relationship. Now it doesn't
Kate Harlow:allow anything new to happen. The reality is every new person
Kate Harlow:we attract into our lives, whether it's short term dating
Kate Harlow:or long term dating or long term relationship, is we, we are, we
Kate Harlow:attract people for a reason, right? You attract new people to
Kate Harlow:have new experiences, and to grow, and to evolve, and to
Kate Harlow:outgrow these old ways of being, and to step into new ways of
Kate Harlow:being, even if the relationship doesn't serve the purpose of a
Kate Harlow:romantic relationship forever and ever, right?
Kate Harlow:Most people go into relationship thinking that's the only option,
Kate Harlow:you need to ditch that. If you go into relationship, even with
Kate Harlow:a preconceived idea of what you're looking for, you are not
Kate Harlow:present in the moment, you are projecting all over that person,
Kate Harlow:that is your baggage, right? That is your conditioning, that
Kate Harlow:is the story. It doesn't mean that you won't find a partner,
Kate Harlow:someone who's so compatible with you that you grow with and
Kate Harlow:evolve with and keep deepening with. That's absolutely a
Kate Harlow:possibility, but you're not going to know till later, right?
Kate Harlow:But if you go into a date looking for your husband, you
Kate Harlow:are not in the present moment, you're projecting a fantasy
Kate Harlow:story onto that person, and you're missing the opportunity
Kate Harlow:to really be in an experience. Okay, so in order to date for
Kate Harlow:your hair from your heroine, there has to be a new story, at
Kate Harlow:which there has to be a blank canvas, right? The only way we
Kate Harlow:really live from the heroine is when we greet every single
Kate Harlow:opportunity from a blank canvas. I am new, I'm present, I am in
Kate Harlow:this experience, I am with this opportunity. I'm just here right
Kate Harlow:now, and I'm going to learn, and I'm going to notice all of the
Kate Harlow:times my smaller self shows up and my saboteur shows up and she
Kate Harlow:paints a fantasy story. Okay, now that's one of the saboteur
Kate Harlow:archetypes for the masterclass coming up the 19th to the
Kate Harlow:20-first, 8am till 10am Pacific every morning. You have to join
Kate Harlow:us in the masterclass and get intimate with your saboteur. The
Kate Harlow:first archetype is the fantasy addict, right? The fantasy
Kate Harlow:addict goes on new dates, and she's got a checklist. She is
Kate Harlow:looking to fill a role, right? She doesn't care about who's in
Kate Harlow:front of her, like really. Of course, she wants to have the
Kate Harlow:perfect guy, the perfect fit, the one Prince Charming, mr.
Kate Harlow:Conscious King, whatever language you're using, your
Kate Harlow:fantasy addict goes in, and she's already decided, I want to
Kate Harlow:get married, I want to have 3.5 kids, I want to have a big
Kate Harlow:event, I want to live in that place, I want to have a happily
Kate Harlow:ever afterlife, and we're going to have a golden retriever,
Kate Harlow:right? Your fantasy addicts is already pre-decided. Okay, this
Kate Harlow:is dangerous, and it's not your fault, because every single
Kate Harlow:movie we watch our whole dire lives, this is this is part of
Kate Harlow:the program, right? Just get out there. If you're dating, you're
Kate Harlow:not dating to have an experience. If you're dating,
Kate Harlow:you are dating to meet the love of your life, and to get to that
Kate Harlow:end goal, but I tell you, all the women who just got to that
Kate Harlow:end goal from that place of trying to fill a role weren't
Kate Harlow:actually connected to their hearts, weren't actually
Kate Harlow:connected to trusting the divine orchestration of life, weren't
Kate Harlow:actually pressing. Listen to what was truly happening, and
Kate Harlow:then guess where they end up. They end up getting to the next
Kate Harlow:benchmark, getting to the next benchmark, getting to the next
Kate Harlow:benchmark, getting to the next benchmark, and then they wake up
Kate Harlow:one day crying in their closet as Jackie Jade shared last last
Kate Harlow:episode. If you have not listened to that episode, go
Kate Harlow:back, it's incredible. She's so vulnerable and shares her
Kate Harlow:amazing story of re of reactivating and re-sparking her
Kate Harlow:marriage with her husband, that was over when we met, which is
Kate Harlow:absolutely also possible when your saboteur is no longer
Kate Harlow:leading your life, but that she had so many moments crying in
Kate Harlow:her closet, because it's like we've been taught that all we
Kate Harlow:need to do as women is to get, get those things, and then we're
Kate Harlow:going to feel amazing once we get there, right? Once we get to
Kate Harlow:the destination, then we're going to feel amazing. It is
Kate Harlow:such a setup, it's such a setup, because the reality is that one
Kate Harlow:thing ain't going to give you what you're looking for, even if
Kate Harlow:you have the most amazing human on planet earth that you are so
Kate Harlow:aligned with, that cannot be the thing, right? And if your
Kate Harlow:fantasy addict is the one going on dates and she's just trying
Kate Harlow:to fill the role, you will miss all the moments that your gut is
Kate Harlow:like this is actually a no, this doesn't feel right, right?
Kate Harlow:Your saboteur will be like no, but it looks great on paper.
Kate Harlow:Look at his resume, this guy's like an absolute catch, right?
Kate Harlow:He's got a perfect resume, so that's an example of the
Kate Harlow:fantasiatic saboteur on date. She is way in the future, so
Kate Harlow:concerned about where she's going, and you have been
Kate Harlow:programmed to put all of your energy there, not just in your
Kate Harlow:relationships, in every area of your life, that all our energy
Kate Harlow:and attention goes to the plan, where are we going, right, but
Kate Harlow:all the people who have the most amazing plan, and they're on
Kate Harlow:this journey of like checking the boxes and crushing the plan.
Kate Harlow:Most of them are completely missing what's happening right
Kate Harlow:here, right now. So that's why you have to learn to date from
Kate Harlow:your heroine, but when the little girl and your saboteur in
Kate Harlow:charge, that's what's going to happen, right? The self
Kate Harlow:sacrificer is the second saboteur archetype we're going
Kate Harlow:to unpack deeply at the masterclass, but I mean, pretty
Kate Harlow:self-explanatory. The self-sacrificer's like ready to
Kate Harlow:sacrifice herself at all costs, like I will do anything, I will
Kate Harlow:do whatever it takes. Oh, this guy is showing some interest in
Kate Harlow:me. Yeah, I'll drop all my plans with my friends, I'll do what he
Kate Harlow:wants me to do. I'll cook him dinner and try and impress him,
Kate Harlow:and like sacrifice, sacrifice, sacrifice. I'll.. and then what
Kate Harlow:happens with self-sacrifices in relationships when they become
Kate Harlow:long term is they become like moms, and I've worked with so
Kate Harlow:many mom types. It's usually the self sacrifice or controller
Kate Harlow:blend, but they. they start to do everything for the man, like
Kate Harlow:he is incapable. In the beginning, it's like to impress
Kate Harlow:him to be a woman, to be based on our conditioning, to be like,
Kate Harlow:show him all the love, and then one day it's like he looks to
Kate Harlow:you like you're his mother, right? That's what happens with
Kate Harlow:the self sacrificer in dating, so the self sacrificer doesn't
Kate Harlow:like, she's not solid in herself, she's not solid in her.
Kate Harlow:Oh, actually, I'm not available Tuesday, but let's look at next
Kate Harlow:week. She's like, "Oh my gosh, I just want to see you. Let me
Kate Harlow:drop everything. Let me drop my life. Let me ditch everyone,
Kate Harlow:because all I want is to see you again, right? That's a little
Kate Harlow:girl. So that's the second one. The third one is the isolator,
Kate Harlow:and there's so many layers to these, like I'm giving you the
Kate Harlow:tip of the iceberg. The masterclass is a game changer.
Kate Harlow:It's on Zoom, so you'll get to meet other amazing women.
Kate Harlow:There'll be women who've worked with me for the last couple
Kate Harlow:years, and or many years, who really deeply understand their
Kate Harlow:saboteurs, and there'll be brand new women, but it's such a great
Kate Harlow:place to feel inspired, because I'm also going to teach you how
Kate Harlow:to break free from these leading your relationships and dating
Kate Harlow:and life, but especially after breakup and divorce. The last
Kate Harlow:thing you want to do is recreate the same thing, and then end up
Kate Harlow:in the same place if you want to have a healthy relationship and
Kate Harlow:a new type of relationship where you get to actually experience
Kate Harlow:intimacy, where you get to actually grow, where you get to
Kate Harlow:be your fullest self, and be fucking adored for being your
Kate Harlow:fullest self. You have to do it differently, right? You have to
Kate Harlow:get intimate with your saboteur, you have to understand your
Kate Harlow:patterns, you have to understand this AI version of you that is
Kate Harlow:like just living in your mind, ready to tell you all the things
Kate Harlow:to do, because she is, she's leading for most women. So the
Kate Harlow:third one is the isolator, and the isolator, so calm. I work
Kate Harlow:with a lot of isolated women, I mean, and self-sacrifice, or I
Kate Harlow:mean, come on, all women. Their self sacrifices, and we're all
Kate Harlow:in fantasy, because we've all been brainwashed. Really, the
Kate Harlow:only relationship model we know is the fantasy one. So, nobody
Kate Harlow:has been taught how to, like, let relationships organically
Kate Harlow:unfold and let life surprise you. No, that's not at all the
Kate Harlow:story. The story is like, you got to know where it's going,
Kate Harlow:and it's going to be happily ever after, forever and ever.
Kate Harlow:So, we're all all of them, for sure. Isolator is the woman who
Kate Harlow:goes on dates and doesn't really share, right?
Kate Harlow:She's not vulnerable, she's guarded, she's typically a great
Kate Harlow:listener and has developed the ability to be a great friend,
Kate Harlow:but not really, because she doesn't let people in and nobody
Kate Harlow:knows her, right, but she's really great at listening and
Kate Harlow:giving other people attention. Typically, isolators end up
Kate Harlow:attracting friends who are really verbose and take up all
Kate Harlow:the space. The Leos in the room, who nobody else gets airtime,
Kate Harlow:isolators are magnets to people like that, because then they
Kate Harlow:don't have to take up space, they can hide in that room,
Kate Harlow:right? The isolator feels like they don't belong in any room
Kate Harlow:they go into, so they feel alone, whether they're in
Kate Harlow:relationship or not. So, isolators dating, it's going to
Kate Harlow:be really uncomfortable to date, because dating is vulnerable,
Kate Harlow:right? So, typically, isolators might not even put themselves
Kate Harlow:out there at all, or if they are, you know, they'll be so
Kate Harlow:stuck in their, in their freeze mode that they have a hard time,
Kate Harlow:like really letting someone in and deepening in intimacy, and
Kate Harlow:the fourth one is the controller. This is the woman
Kate Harlow:who becomes the mom, right? The controller is the part of you
Kate Harlow:that is trying to control where it's going, right? The
Kate Harlow:controller is like waiting for the text message back, and it
Kate Harlow:hasn't come in the timing you wanted it to, so she's looking
Kate Harlow:and judging the guy, and at, oh, this can't be right, and then
Kate Harlow:she's like, got to go over there, that's not enough, this
Kate Harlow:guy's not good enough, she's like, look, oh, that's a red
Kate Harlow:flag, she's looking to control it, or she's like, oh, this
Kate Harlow:guy's perfect, I got to make this happen, I got to call him
Kate Harlow:again, I got to book another date, I got to, I got to
Kate Harlow:control, we got to get to the next thing, she's the one that's
Kate Harlow:giving the ultimatum, the controller is the one that gives
Kate Harlow:the ultimatum, like, hey, if you won't marry me, I'm out. If you
Kate Harlow:won't propose to me by Valentine's Day, I'm out. That's
Kate Harlow:the controller. She's trying to control the fantasy story rather
Kate Harlow:than let the relationship organically unfold. And if
Kate Harlow:something doesn't feel aligned internally, at some point she
Kate Harlow:lets it go. That's the heroine, right? But the controller, she's
Kate Harlow:going to control how it goes. She's going to control how she's
Kate Harlow:perceived. The controller once, and again, hybrid with fantasy
Kate Harlow:addict, those ones go hand in hand. The controller likes to
Kate Harlow:control people's perception of her, so she does everything
Kate Harlow:herself. She's got this very independent, but it's like
Kate Harlow:always controlling people's perception of her has to be
Kate Harlow:perfect, maybe look perfect, maybe act perfect. She has
Kate Harlow:really high stat, high expectations. I'd say maybe not
Kate Harlow:standards expectations. Feels disappointed a lot, and yeah,
Kate Harlow:she'll be in charge planning. So typically controllers end up
Kate Harlow:attracting men that don't lead because she's taken the lead,
Kate Harlow:and that's because she's taking the lead. It's rooted in fear,
Kate Harlow:right? So all of these saboteur patterns are rooted in fear, and
Kate Harlow:yet that's the part that most of us are letting lead
Kate Harlow:relationships and dating, right? We're letting our fear lead, and
Kate Harlow:when your fear leads, you get more fear, right? The more
Kate Harlow:afraid you are, and the more you try and control the situation,
Kate Harlow:so that you don't like it's all in the name of trying to like
Kate Harlow:feel safe, quote unquote, but actually it does the opposite.
Kate Harlow:Your saboteur creates the thing she's trying to protect you
Kate Harlow:from, she's trying to get safety, but she's creating a lot
Kate Harlow:of lack of safety because she's trying to control life, which is
Kate Harlow:absolutely out of your control. She's trying to control another
Kate Harlow:person, which is absolutely out of your control, and even if
Kate Harlow:they let you control them, it's not going to be a spicy, sexy
Kate Harlow:time, because you're going to be attracting someone else's
Kate Harlow:saboteur, like that's the thing, when you're dating from your
Kate Harlow:saboteur, from your patterns, you're going to be attracting
Kate Harlow:someone else's patterns, you're going to be attracting someone
Kate Harlow:else's saboteurs, that that's the perfect match to you, right?
Kate Harlow:Then you have a kid and a teenager in a relationship, and
Kate Harlow:they're just like doing this dance, and it might be really
Kate Harlow:spicy and fun at first, that's a fantasy addict, that's like mock
Kate Harlow:zero to 100 My God, this is amazing. Is the best man I've
Kate Harlow:ever met.
Kate Harlow:This, like, this is what I've been waiting for. And we like
Kate Harlow:write all these stories in the beginning. That's the fantasy
Kate Harlow:addict, right? When this part is leading, that's what you're
Kate Harlow:gonna get, right? Be careful what part of you you bring on
Kate Harlow:dates with you. So that's the controller. The fourth, the last
Kate Harlow:one is the shape shifter, and the shape shifter is the part of
Kate Harlow:you that does not have a solid sense of self. In fact, none of
Kate Harlow:them have a solid sense of self, because it's all little girl and
Kate Harlow:saboteur. But the shape shifter is the ones like, who do I need
Kate Harlow:to be so that I am liked? And so the shapeshifter is kind of like
Kate Harlow:getting to know this person they're on a date with, and
Kate Harlow:they're trying to. Morph themselves to that person, like
Kate Harlow:maybe you shape shift your opinions, maybe you shape shift
Kate Harlow:your, your calendar, maybe you shapeshift like you're basically
Kate Harlow:not rooted. This is the woman who says, I've lost myself in
Kate Harlow:relationship again. I always lose myself in relationship, and
Kate Harlow:the reality is, when you have yourself, when you're actually
Kate Harlow:sovereign and rooted in who you are. You cannot lose yourself in
Kate Harlow:relationship. We only lose ourselves in relationship when
Kate Harlow:we never had ourselves to begin with. And so, because when you
Kate Harlow:have yourself and you know yourself, like all of the women
Kate Harlow:who've just been on the immersion journey with me the
Kate Harlow:last year know this, it's like you know when your small self is
Kate Harlow:there, because you've experienced your fullest, most
Kate Harlow:rooted, expanded self. The women who work with me and come to the
Kate Harlow:immersion, like they experience their most sovereign selves, and
Kate Harlow:so they know when their saboteurs hijack them, even if
Kate Harlow:it's like just for an hour or 30 minutes or a week, like every
Kate Harlow:woman knows what her saboteur feels like and what a hijack
Kate Harlow:feels like, because it's not who you are. And when you know your
Kate Harlow:expansive self, your relaxed self, your grounded self, your
Kate Harlow:rooted self, your sovereign self, fear is not in charge
Kate Harlow:anymore, and yet most people are making all of their life
Kate Harlow:decisions and relating from fear, trying to get love, trying
Kate Harlow:to get attention, trying to get approval, trying to get this
Kate Harlow:person to give them something, to give them some sense of
Kate Harlow:relief temporarily, and then the saboteur wants more, right, the
Kate Harlow:shape shifter, the fantasy addict that's waiting for
Kate Harlow:another hit, like, oh, he texted again. Okay, now I feel good.
Kate Harlow:Oh, I feel relieved. Okay, now I'm confident. And then, like,
Kate Harlow:an hour later, you're like, "Oh my god, but he didn't respond to
Kate Harlow:my message, like, "Oh. And then the confidence goes out the
Kate Harlow:window. That's the little girl. So, the practice is not about
Kate Harlow:your saboteur being gone forever. Your saboteur is always
Kate Harlow:going to be there, and every new level of growth and every new
Kate Harlow:level of deepening within yourself, a saboteur is going to
Kate Harlow:get loud when you're going through a big growth spurt. When
Kate Harlow:there's a new part of yourself you're tapping into, should
Kate Harlow:going to get really loud, and if you are not intimate with this
Kate Harlow:part of you, it is so hard to reestablish a new relationship
Kate Harlow:from a blank canvas from a storybook that's blank that
Kate Harlow:you're letting unfold organically, right, to allow you
Kate Harlow:to be in your heroin dating, or to experience being in your
Kate Harlow:heroin dating. You have to know your saboteur and your small
Kate Harlow:self intimately, so you have the reference point of when she
Kate Harlow:arises. Now I can do something different if I have awareness,
Kate Harlow:if I have practices and tools to be able to meet that part of
Kate Harlow:myself and love up that part of myself. So she's not the one
Kate Harlow:engaging with this person, so she's not the one showing up on
Kate Harlow:dates. Like this is an opportunity for you to grow into
Kate Harlow:your sovereignty, but if you don't know your sneaky saboteur
Kate Harlow:intimately, they are sneaky, then most likely she's going to
Kate Harlow:be leading your dating and leading your new relationships,
Kate Harlow:and that's why new relationships feel so good in the beginning,
Kate Harlow:and then they feel so bad, because what goes up must come
Kate Harlow:down, right?
Kate Harlow:In the beginning, the fantasy addicts like, oh my god, finally
Kate Harlow:a man that does this, that, and the other, that's like this, and
Kate Harlow:she's like, all in a high, I've met the one, this is it forever,
Kate Harlow:and she's like way up on the roof, what goes up must come
Kate Harlow:down, then she comes crashing down the moment his behavior
Kate Harlow:changes, because the honeymoon, quote unquote, it's over, and
Kate Harlow:all the honeymoon is is the phase where everybody's on their
Kate Harlow:best behavior, but mostly it's from pattern, right? We think
Kate Harlow:it's like we're meeting people's authentic selves, but really
Kate Harlow:everyone's on their best behavior, being the perfect
Kate Harlow:little controller fantasy addict. Put it on a show, like,
Kate Harlow:here, let me show you all my best parts of myself, and let
Kate Harlow:me, like, make you think I'm the most amazing person, so you give
Kate Harlow:me love, right? This is extractive love, and it's the
Kate Harlow:codependent relationship model that most people only know that
Kate Harlow:one. This is extractive love. I'm trying to get something from
Kate Harlow:you in this situation, rather than I'm coming to this state,
Kate Harlow:and I'm not trying to get anything. I'm not trying to
Kate Harlow:interview you for a role in my future. I'm not trying to get
Kate Harlow:attention or approval or validation, but I'm actually
Kate Harlow:showing on this date so full in myself, so connected, so alive.
Kate Harlow:My heart feels satiated. I am in pleasure. I am full, right? I am
Kate Harlow:full with myself. And then I show up on this date, rather
Kate Harlow:than starving for your attention. I show up in the
Kate Harlow:state full, and then I sit here from my innocent part of my
Kate Harlow:heroine, and I look at you, and I'm like, oh, who are you? And
Kate Harlow:I'm curious, and I'm like, even if you're not my type, quote
Kate Harlow:unquote, even if my mom. My saboteur has stories as to why
Kate Harlow:you're right or wrong, or good or bad, or not. I'm just present
Kate Harlow:and curious, because there's a reason you're sitting in front
Kate Harlow:of me right now, even if it's just for one date. There's a
Kate Harlow:reason we are here right now, and I'm going to be here right
Kate Harlow:now with my heart open, with my spine tall, with my feet rooted
Kate Harlow:on the ground, on the earth, and I'm going to meet you, and we
Kate Harlow:can get curious about this human in front of me, and I'm going to
Kate Harlow:let you experience a new kind of relating, because probably
Kate Harlow:you're a man out there on dates with women who are in their
Kate Harlow:saboteurs, in their fantasy addicts, doing job interviews,
Kate Harlow:trying to control the process and control whether this is
Kate Harlow:right or wrong, whether you're going to go in the red flag
Kate Harlow:category, or you're going to go in the green flag category. That
Kate Harlow:is how most women date. So, to be the breath of fresh air that
Kate Harlow:walks into a date so full, so connected, heart open, curious,
Kate Harlow:but not in a fantasy of where's this going in the future. And if
Kate Harlow:you can bring that energy into every single date and every
Kate Harlow:single phase of a relationship, you are going to experience the
Kate Harlow:new paradigm, even if you and your partner, five years in,
Kate Harlow:were like deepening in love through vulnerability, through
Kate Harlow:trans, like having transformations, growing
Kate Harlow:individually, growing together, and you decide, like, hey, let's
Kate Harlow:get married, just for fun, not because we're promising the
Kate Harlow:future, but because we just want a new experience, and we want to
Kate Harlow:experience a new phase of being together. Even then, can you sit
Kate Harlow:in the, in the not knowing where it's going, right, rather than
Kate Harlow:sit in the fantasy that, oh, now we're together forever, that's
Kate Harlow:bullshit. So many people that are married don't stay together
Kate Harlow:forever, and also, if you do, but you believe it's always
Kate Harlow:going to be there, you're going to take it for granted, you're
Kate Harlow:going to totally not honor it, you're going to think the box is
Kate Harlow:checked, and you're going to not put attention into it, right?
Kate Harlow:But if every day inside of your relationship you have to, you
Kate Harlow:have to be present with this relationship, because you don't
Kate Harlow:know how long it's going to be here, even if you're married.
Kate Harlow:Like, what a gift to be able to meet your relationship every
Kate Harlow:day, and be like, how is the relationship? How am I? How are
Kate Harlow:you?
Kate Harlow:And like, everyone's sovereign, everyone's taking responsibility
Kate Harlow:for themselves, for their pain, for their pleasure, and you're
Kate Harlow:bringing your fullest selves to each other, and you're having
Kate Harlow:this new experience like that will keep your relationship
Kate Harlow:alive. But the old paradigm doesn't want us to do that. The
Kate Harlow:old paradigm is like, stick that butterfly in a jar and put the
Kate Harlow:lid on it, because you want to keep it forever, right? And then
Kate Harlow:you stick the jar on a shelf and the butterfly's dead in like 10
Kate Harlow:minutes, or I don't know how long it would take to suffocate
Kate Harlow:the butter, poor butterfly. There, speaking of butterflies,
Kate Harlow:there's like 10 million butterflies in my yard today.
Kate Harlow:Brandy and I were sitting outside basking in the magic of
Kate Harlow:the butterflies and the crickets and all these magical little
Kate Harlow:creatures, lizards in my jungle yard, but anyways, the
Kate Harlow:butterfly, like that's the relationship model we've been
Kate Harlow:taught, right? You want to know it's locked down for the future
Kate Harlow:rather than actually meet it every day with fresh eyes, meet
Kate Harlow:it every day with radical self responsibility, with fully
Kate Harlow:taking responsibility for your shit, for your pain. That's why
Kate Harlow:you got to know your saboteur, you got to know what's yours, my
Kate Harlow:loves. And I, you know, it doesn't matter how long you've
Kate Harlow:been on the path. We all have so much come up when we're dating
Kate Harlow:and in relationship. It is incredibly vulnerable to have
Kate Harlow:feelings for someone to open your heart, especially after
Kate Harlow:you've been hurt. It is so uncomfortable to sit in front of
Kate Harlow:someone you deeply care about and know you have to just trust
Kate Harlow:the unfolding that is vulnerable. I'm not saying what
Kate Harlow:I'm sharing is easy, however, if you do not get intimate with
Kate Harlow:your saboteur, if you do not take the time to the end, I want
Kate Harlow:to say the due diligence to actually get to know your side
Kate Harlow:of the street, clean up what you did in past relationships that
Kate Harlow:was yours, right? If you're still in a story that my ex was
Kate Harlow:the worst. Now I'm going to attract a new person who's going
Kate Harlow:to be better. Your saboteur is going to do your relationship
Kate Harlow:right if you're not owning your side of the street, if you're
Kate Harlow:not looking intimately and going, okay, I need to figure
Kate Harlow:out what was mine, even if your partner cheated on you 400 times
Kate Harlow:and it was like you thought he was a great guy and he was a,
Kate Harlow:you know, liar or whatever, even if it's a horror story, you
Kate Harlow:still had a part, and you until you take responsibility for your
Kate Harlow:life and for what you bring to relationships, and also your
Kate Harlow:relationship with your, your mother-in-law, and your
Kate Harlow:relationship with your, or your mom, or your dad, or your, your
Kate Harlow:ex best friend, or your boss, like whoever is triggering you.
Kate Harlow:My love, you are the common denominator, you need to know
Kate Harlow:your part. So, join us at the Masterclass. Get intimate with
Kate Harlow:your saboteur. Get to know her. This work is so playful because
Kate Harlow:you get to know your saboteur. She has a name, she has a
Kate Harlow:personality, she's your little like robot self that you
Kate Harlow:developed when you're a child to stay safe, and now she's hurting
Kate Harlow:you. Now she's. Sabotaging you, and if you just let yourself get
Kate Harlow:intimate with her, build a relationship with her, but not
Kate Harlow:let her lead, but start to get to know her so much more as
Kate Harlow:possible. That relationship, that intimacy, that pleasure,
Kate Harlow:that connection that you crave, you can only experience it from
Kate Harlow:sovereignty. True, you can only truly, other people might have
Kate Harlow:it from their saboteurs, but they're not really experiencing
Kate Harlow:until you really know how to be present, be in your heart, and
Kate Harlow:live from the trusting of life unfolding and bringing you what
Kate Harlow:you're meant to experience, and live in a harmonious, loving
Kate Harlow:relationship with you, and owning all of your parts, and be
Kate Harlow:having self awareness through these journeys until you have
Kate Harlow:that deep level of self awareness. You will push love
Kate Harlow:away, you will sabotage it, you will have it, but you won't be
Kate Harlow:able to receive it.
Kate Harlow:You'll, your fear will take over, and you'll constantly be
Kate Harlow:chasing something that that person can never satiate, and
Kate Harlow:eventually they'll give up, because that, I mean, that's the
Kate Harlow:number one complaint of men in relationships, is nothing I ever
Kate Harlow:do is enough. Kate, nothing I ever do is enough. She's never
Kate Harlow:satisfied. Why? Because she's trying to get him to fill that
Kate Harlow:void inside and make her feel good enough. So, until you learn
Kate Harlow:how to be in relationship with your saboteur and heroine, so
Kate Harlow:your heroine can love that little girl inside, instead of
Kate Harlow:your saboteur trying to get it from a man. You will constantly
Kate Harlow:chase feeling good enough in relationship, and you'll never
Kate Harlow:feel good enough. And it is a self only for short periods of
Kate Harlow:time, and it's a self-fulfilling prophecy, and it will sabotage
Kate Harlow:all your relationships, which is why it's called a saboteur, so
Kate Harlow:even if your relationships last, it'll sabotage you from really
Kate Harlow:receiving the relationship, and the intimacy, and the depth, and
Kate Harlow:the connection that you deserve. So, my loves, so much more as
Kate Harlow:possible. June 19, 220-first two hours every morning, eight if

Kate Harlow:of the street, I'm going to figure out what is mine, so I

Kate Harlow:life will be astronomically better when you have sovereign
Kate Harlow:relationships, your friendships will be so much more meaningful,
Kate Harlow:so much more intimate, so much more connected, and inspiring.
Kate Harlow:If you, if you are in your saboteur, you're going to
Kate Harlow:attract women in their saboteurs, and your
Kate Harlow:relationships are going to be built on gossiping, complaining,
Kate Harlow:victim mentality, fakeness, right? The only way you can have
Kate Harlow:true thriving relationships in all facets is when you're in the
Kate Harlow:sovereign woman, which is your heroine, and if you don't know
Kate Harlow:your saboteur, you're not going to know your heroine. I can
Kate Harlow:promise you that. So, join us the 19th, 20-first. See you
