I love Valentines day. I love it as much when I'm single as when I'm in a relationship.
Why? Because it's about celebrating our bonds with the people we love.
So I was really happy to combine my faviourte day with talking about my favourite thing; Lovephool and how people can have better relationships by finding their Buzz (the things that make them happy) and focusing on their Lovephool connection type. When you know that your happiness comes from being Fly, Hot, Cool or Slick you naturally attract and are attracted to people you're going to click with. The more that happens the move positive relationships you'll have in your life and hence more chance of love!
This morning I was on the Breakfast show with Richard Andersone on Liberty Radio. In between kicking out some amazing tunes and bundles of high energy, Richard invited me to test the Lovephool model whilst we were live on air with the other guest in the studio ... his wife!
In my model, relationships are strongest and happiest when you're with a person who's the same type as you. So we tested it using the mini version of the quiz live on air. Here's the listen again!.... Did I mention it was Valentines and they're happily married ... no pressure then! (Download to skip to Lovephool section last 30 mins).
Turns out Richard is a Cool Lovephool.
Having a Cool connection type means that people like Richard relate to to others and the world around them in a calm unemotional way. Cool Lovephools are self oriented; they're quite happy in their own company. They're also mind driven, they go with their head more than their heart and tend to be logical and clear thinking. This also makes them quite wise and gives them great sense of perspective. Cool types may have strengths such as being; Creative, Curious, Intellectual, Wise, Courageous, Displined and Persistent. That's where they're most likely to get their Buzz. They're least likely to get on with emotional 'Hot' Lovephools.
So how about his lovely wife Louise?
Turns out she's also a Cool Lovephool! Perfect match. Actually if you saw the two of them together you could could see they had a really nice chilled out vibe ... Definitely a Cool couple, not just in the Lovephool sense.
Then in the afternoon I was invited to be on national radio live with DJ Nihal with a Valentines special on BBC Asian Network!
Ok do you now realise why I was nervous? I was afraid I'd end up sounding like Tinkerbell from Peter Pan sprinking fairy dust and asking cynics to just BELIEVE and clap their hands frantically and say yee ha!
Well nerves disappeared when I met Nihal and his lovely team. Love is a personal journey, but I do think Valentines is a day of celebration and I tried to give my own Lovephool flavoured fairy dust to some interesting callers. There was some great banter including a live name and shame, but no Tinkerbell! Here's a listen again from the show (I'm on for the second hour) http://www.bbc.co.uk/i/yfbdf/
As for finding out your Lovephool type. Try the mini profile test for free at www.lovephool.com to find out if you and your partner are Fly, Hot, Cool or Slick But if it doesn't come out as a perfect match, don't worry, the full version will show you how and why you click and what makes your relationship Buzz.
But whether your single or in a relationship enjoy being who you are and spend time with the people you love. That's what Valentines is really about!
