Key Quotes from this Episode
Love exists in so many forms, people are so quick to jump to the thought of a relationship with someone outside of themselves but really love starts with you.
Phi Dang
Love and pain exist in the same place within your heart. So when you shut down to pain and fear, you also shut down to love.
Phi Dang
If you don’t understand that love is infinite you will always believe you need others to others to be the source of love.

[Episode 13 – The Mindset of Love Begins]
Hello beautiful soul and welcome to February oooh la la the month of love!
So you know how in last week’s episode I scratched my original idea on your brain is a liar and felt called to speak about understanding your negative emotions… well it’s happened again because February is all about love.
For the last few weeks I’ve been in a draining and limiting energy, feeling pressured by needing to this and feeling like I should do that but this? This has shifted the energy. Love has transcended the energy. Love has triumphed. Love! I want to do this!
It’s been a shift in gears to drop out of my head and into my body. Feel deeply into my heart through a lot of embodiment work and movement (I’m loving gentle stretches at the moment and of course cold swims – you feel so alive – cool, refreshing – seriously the colder the better). [Note: Read more about my Wim Hof cold experience where I attended the World’s First Women’s Wim Hof Retreat in the world!]
I’m tapping into my feminine energy – the emotive, the fluid and leaning into my heart, to what feels right. Listening to my body’s signals, reconnecting with my intuition and I felt called upon to do this new Love Series which you may have seen launch yesterday on my Instagram @thephidang.
So what is the L💘VE SERIES?
It’s all about love.
Love exists in so many forms, people are so quick to jump to the thought of a relationship with someone outside of themselves but really love starts with you. Loving yourself is love. Loving your pet is love. Loving your family is love. Loving your friends is love. Loving your job is love. Loving the ocean is love. Love is everywhere. Love is infinite, love is abundant. Love is your trust nature, the essence of who you are.
Love is the most beautiful expansive energy, it’s connection, it’s wholeness, it’s light, it’s happiness.
Love feels like floating in the sky. Love feels warm in your heart. Love transcends time and space. Love is one of the highest frequencies you can vibrate in.
So why the L💘VE SERIES?
Valentine’s Day is around the corner which has many of us thinking about love. Reflecting upon love whether you are single or in a relationship.
For 8 years of my life, I was single. I remember struggling and wishing I had someone to talk to (which I eventually did – my first life coach was a dating coach fun fact. Thank you V – you changed my life!). I remember feeling alone, even though I wasn’t. I can assure you also as a coach I have heard many client experiences and so many overlap.
Most of us have been there. Hating yourself and trying to convince yourself that you do love yourself. Experiencing heartbreak. Feeling numb, cold and closed off. Wanting a relationship so badly. Trying to change ourselves for someone. Feeling jealous and insecure. Unrequited love. Wanting to go back to an ex. Getting back with an ex. Being with someone who is just so wrong for you but it feels so good (sometimes!). Wanting to define the relationship. Being in a situationship. Friends with benefits but you want more, dealing with cheating … The love list goes on.
The Love Series exists so I can share with you how to approach love through the key pillars of 1:1 coaching: mindset, self love, energy and purpose. To help you feel more love in your life by removing and melting obstacles in your way. To shed your pain and fears. That’s why the love series exists.

The Love Mindset
Be love. Do love.
Every time you do something out of love, it raises the vibration of the entire universe.
Return home to love because love is the essence of your being.
Be the person you want to be with.
True, pure love is unencumbered from wanting something in return or having love with conditions.
If you are familiar with the bible, a Corinthians verse encapsulates love beautifully. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
What a beautiful description of what love is.
Such as a beautiful selflessness, it’s just so much love brimming and flowing from out of you.
It’s such a natural high.
Love is without ego. Love is just pure love, it’s always in the best interest, you know – out of love.
Love is a journey, it won't always be smooth
I heard this very cheesy corny line but really it’s true:
"Love is a journey starting at forever and ending at never.”
Unknown
Really it’s true though (it is corny!)
Whether you are single or in a relationship, love is a life long journey.
Even in love, there is always more love to give beyond a partner.
When single, love is the journey of self discovery and dating.
In this journey, it is inevitable to experience heart ache but see it as this.
See rejection and heartbreak as redirection.
Enjoy the journey and you’ll always be in love.
Stop searching for love outside of yourself only
Classic movies and fairytales have led us astray when it comes to love. It’s set up unrealistic expectations about love.
Prince Charming will rescue you.
When you are in love everything will be better. You will be happier.
You need someone to complete you.
Love happens at a young age.
When you look for love outside of you it will always be out of control and you will always see yourself as a victim. At the mercy of outside external influences.
Choose to see the other lessons in these tales.
Be true to yourself (Ariel in the Little Mermaid).
Give your relationship room to grow (Beauty and the Beast).
Honesty is the best policy (Mulan).
Don’t forget about your friends (Snow White).
The past is in the past. Let it Go (Frozen).
As you can see I am a massive fan of Disney and it’s so lovely to rewatch the movies as an adult. To see the different lessons you can notice compared to when you were a kid, you just pick up on so much more.
You have to let love in
When your heart is closed because you are scared, because you don’t think you are worthy, because you are protecting yourself, you are closing the door to love.
Love cannot enter your heart to heal, to restore, to strengthen.
Love and pain exist in the same place within your heart.
So when you shut down to pain and fear, you also shut down to love.
Believe you are worthy of love
Seriously because you are.
The biggest block I see with clients is a deep subconscious belief that for some reason they are not good enough or not worthy of love. Love is your birth right. You do not have to do anything to be loveable or worthy of love.
The analogy I like to use is that of babies. When babies are born, we immediately love them.
We don’t not love them because they can’t do anything or because they cry and can’t control when they go to the bathroom.
We just love them.
They don’t need to do anything to be lovable.
You were a baby once, therefore you are already lovable.
You don’t have to be a ‘good’ girl or boy, to follow the rules. You don’t have to do a certain job, look a certain way, be a certain weight. You don’t have to be perfect.
If you aren’t there yet, start asking yourself:
If I truly believed I was worthy of love, the love I want, what would I do? How would I act? Would I accept this behaviour?
Phi Dang
Infinite love exists
There seems to be a limiting belief amongst many that love is limited. That it is finite. To that, I want to share with you a Chinese Proverb with you.
“Thousands of candles can be lighted from a single candle, and the life of the candle will not be shortened. Love never decreases by being shared.”
Chinese Proverb
Such a beautiful analogy.
Love is not scarce for love is abundant.
An abundant love mindset reminds you that there is not only someone else out there but multiple people out there when you are heartbroken.
An abundant love mindset reminds you that when it seems like everyone else is coupled up, there are so many out there for you – you just haven’t met them yet.
An abundant love mindset reminds you not to settle and to expect the best when it comes to love.
An abundant love mindset doesn’t care how many dates it has to go on, it knows every date is one step closer to the one.
An abundant love mindset feels whole, full, brimming with love to share.
If you don’t understand that love is infinite you will always believe you need others to others to be the source of love.
You get to choose love, you don’t have to wait for it to choose you
In each and every moment, you can choose love.
You can choose love after your heart breaks and you open up again.
You start dating again. You let down your walls. In your vulnerability, you choose love. In your hope, you choose love. In your second love, you choose love.
You can choose love over fear.
You choose love when you take the leap of faith. You choose love in believing there is more than one person out there for you. That no two loves will ever be the same but there is so much abundance with love. You may not have even experienced the depths of love. That a love exists out there beyond your comprehension and dreams.
You can choose love over hate.
You choose love when you decide to not seek revenge. You choose love when you forgive. You choose love when you let go. You choose love when you see the positivity. You choose love when you speak out.
You choose love in the little things.
Love is in the small things. Making dinner. Asking how their day was. Listening. Falling asleep together. Sunday morning. Forehead Kisses. Coffee and Pancakes.

Ah my heart is seriously filled with so much joy from today’s episode. If you’re feeling called to work on your love mindset, please DM me on Instagram @thephidang as I can help you and would love to.
I’ve helped clients heal from heartbreak, move on from ex’s, during the dating progress providing support along the way (if you didn’t know, my 1:1 clients also get text support from me between sessions which is so valuable being able to ask me anything from how do I reply to this text message or how do I work on my feelings of jealousy and insecurity).
I’ve even had clients call in love through new relationships. So if you’re hearing the call for coaching, please get in touch and let’s make 2021 your biggest year yet for love.
Next week’s episode will be about self love and I’m really excited to speak to that!
Speak to you next Tuesday beautiful soul. Love and Positivity.
