This episode is a heartfelt narrative filled with laughter and vulnerability, a must-listen for anyone who's ever faced the daunting task of rekindling their passion for love while juggling the joys and challenges of self-discovery.
Francesca, aka Frankie, is a dynamic 40-year-old, juggling roles as a wedding and event planner, devoted mother, and passionate traveler. By day, she crafts unforgettable experiences for clients at Smitten Events and manages the iconic Commodore Ballroom for Edge Catering. Off-duty, Frankie embraces life to the fullest, entertaining friends, exploring the globe, and enjoying outdoor adventures with her son. Despite recent changes in her love life, Frankie champions self-love and celebration, inspiring others to reclaim their joy. Residing in Langley, BC, Canada, Frankie believes in the healing powers of pizza, wine, and living authentically.

Here are some actions you can take whether you have 5 minutes or 50:
- If you have 5 minutes, check out Matthew’s YouTube channel where you will find hundreds of videos about dating, attracting a partner, feeling worthy, etc.
- If you have 50 minutes, check out Matthew’s new book Love Life, which hits the shelves on April 23. I have tuned into some of Matthew’s interviews promoting the book and I cannot wait to read this. His viewpoint on self-love was so profound that I shared that particular interview instantly on my social channels. I believe there may still be time to pre-order his book, which will give you access to some really amazing resources and content which is all free. He also has a live event coming up on Saturday, May 4 called Find Your Person.
