The Making of the Manfunnel
Growing up, a self-proclaimed tomboy, I wasn't the type of girl who dreamt of fairy-tale weddings. While other little girls were writing their crushes name in hearts on the back of their notebooks, I was skateboarding, fishing and following my beloved big brother around town!
After college, I followed my brother to Manhattan where I hung out with him and his friends immersing myself in a world where I thought being the "cool girl" seemed like the key to a man's heart.
Running around New York with guys as my best friends, I saw the inner workings of the male mind and how they operated with women. This gave me unique insight into things most women will never know or understand.
“Guys were easy for me when I was young because I was basically one of them! It’s easy to connect with boys at school when you loved micro-machines and remote-controlled race cars, but later in life I realized this only went so far.”
Meet Megan, the former tomboy turned relationship guru who once thought her dating destiny had an expiration date.
From broken hearts to open heart….
Living and dating in Manhattan is the most inspiring and humbling experience for a young person.
The competition was real, or so I thought, and it lead me to a deep limiting belief that I could only have portions of the dream man. That what I truly wanted wasn’t meant for me.
I found myself settling for 80 percent of what I wanted in a partner. A nasty voice inside told me I couldn’t have it all. That my true desires were meant for other woman, and not me.
To make matters worse, when I fell for a guy or started a “serious” relationship, he would end it.
Leaving me bewildered and confused. Because the man usually was so excited about me initially and expressed love.
The problem wasn’t that I couldn’t attract a man, the problem was that as soon as I had developed a real connection, they would then slip through my fingers…
My mother once asked, "Megan, I don’t understand how your boyfriends can leave you so easily…?” This was the moment I realized that it was time to look in the mirror. I was getting a similar result in all my attempts at love that ended with painful outcomes. There must be something I’m contributing toward this…
This sparked a personal development journey where I discovered I was going about everything so backward, and creating self-fulfilled heartache every. single. time. Through the lens of familial and societies conditioning, movies and media, poor examples, fears & doubt, and my own human biological tendencies, I had been driving love straight into a big old brick wall.
I broke down the walls that once encased my heart and rebuilt it to shine in a brand new light. I finally understood what healthy love should look and feel like. I learned to discern wisely and where to invest my time. I developed a process to avoid the pitfalls of dating that we so easily fall into—a process that has now touched countless women’s lives and sparked many healthy relationship journeys, not just my own.
I vowed to myself that not only would I be married within a year, but I wouldn’t settle on anyone who wasn’t 100 percent what I wanted……
I met and married my husband, Josh, within a year…
We were engaged after six months. Four months after that, we said “I, Do” at my dream location at The Sunset Beach Hotel on Shelter Island, New York.
We have just celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary.
It took me years to realize that love isn’t about compromises; it’s about finding someone who meets your standards, aligns with your values, and embraces you for who you are.
I thought being in a long-term relationship was about making trade-offs. I didn’t believe I could have it all…
Luckily, I was wrong!
