422: Annie Lalla on The Secrets To Love That No One Tells You About

podcast November 4, 2025

Background

“The opposite of dead is not happy, it’s alive. Love is about maximizing aliveness, not happiness.”

What if love wasn’t meant to make you happy, but to make you whole?

In this episode of Soul Talk, I sit down with Annie Lalla, world-renowned love coach and self-proclaimed Cartographer of Love, to explore what it truly means to love courageously, consciously, and completely.

Annie’s insights are revolutionary. With compassion and razor-sharp wisdom, she reveals how every relationship is a mirror, a gymnasium for the soul, a sacred space where our deepest wounds meet our highest potential. Together, we unpack the myths of “happily ever after,” the patterns that keep us chasing familiar pain, and how to turn conflict into collaboration.

She reminds us that real love isn’t about avoiding discomfort, it’s about expanding your capacity to feel, to grow, to stay alive ever after. From healing heartbreak to mastering the art of fighting fair, Annie guides us into the heart of emotional intimacy, where vulnerability becomes strength, and every rupture becomes a portal to deeper connection.

This conversation is an invitation to reimagine love not as a fairytale, but as a spiritual practice. A journey of becoming more awake, more open, and more alive.

Listen to this episode and discover how to break the cycle of emotional unavailability and attract real connection and also heal heartbreak and reopen your heart after betrayal.
