“There Are No Good Guys Left”-Why the Problem Might Not Be What You Think
September 12, 2024

Maria Olive

How many times have you heard (or maybe even said) the phrase, “There are no good guys left”? It’s easy to feel this way when you’ve been through heartbreak and disappointment. But today, I want to share something important with you: there’s a secret to finding a high-quality partner. Before I reveal it, let me take you through my personal journey—what my life was like before I learned this secret.

Here’s the truth:

  • I failed at marriage three times.
  • I had more meaningless dates and relationships than I care to admit.

And the cost of those failed relationships?

  • My relationship with my daughter suffered.
  • I felt like an embarrassment and a burden to my family and friends.
  • I confused my children’s understanding of healthy relationships, serving as a negative role model, and possibly impacting their future relationships and emotional well-being.
  • I neglected my professional development and career.
  • I lost my dignity and self-respect.
  • I gained weight.
  • I compromised my values.
  • My reputation was affected.
  • My credit was ruined and rebuilt three times.
  • I got pregnant by a man who had no intention of being in a long-term relationship with me, and tragically, my daughter passed away 30 minutes after she was born (RIP Lauryn Phillips).

These experiences left me feeling broken, lost, and hopeless.

But then, I learned the secret.

Once I internalized this truth, everything began to change:

  • My confidence increased.
  • I finally felt proud of myself for getting it right.
  • I felt excited to share my new partner with my family and friends.
  • My children can now see what a healthy relationship looks like, and I’m able to be the positive role model they deserve.
  • My values are now reinforced by my partner’s support.
  • I’ve grown substantially in my career thanks to my partner’s encouragement and my renewed sense of self-worth.
  • Together, my partner and I have accomplished more than we ever could alone.
  • I’m still struggling with my weight…but now, it’s for a completely different reason!

So, what’s the secret? Here it is: The problem isn’t that there are no good guys left—the problem was me.

Now, if you’re stuck in a prideful or victim mindset, you might reject this idea outright. You might think, “There’s no way I’m the problem.” I get it because I used to think the same thing. But here’s the hard truth: every day I spent living in emotional chaos, I chose to be there.

The truth, my friends, is this: NOTHING changes in your life unless YOU change.

It wasn’t until I took ownership of my choices, my actions, and my mindset that I was able to turn things around. When you stop blaming others and start focusing on your own growth, everything changes.

If you’re ready to take control of your life and relationships, let’s begin this journey together. You deserve a partner who values and supports you, and it all starts with YOU. Let’s break free from the belief that there are no good men left and start attracting the right kind of partner by making the right changes within ourselves.

10/10 Experience

I had the pleasure of being coached by Maria in October 2023. It was a great experience. Maria was easy to talk to and I felt very comfortable with her. She has a way of making you think and drawing things out of you that you didn’t think you had in you. I liked the way she communicated with me. She was straightforward, listens to understand, and helps guide you instead of doing the work for you (which is something I needed). She’s naturally empathetic which I love because I’m the same way. I’ll definitely use her again due to how effective she was at helping me overall with my goals. Til this day I use some of the tactics she showed me because they work and for that I’m grateful.

I highly recommend Maria

I have had the privilege of knowing Maria for several years, and I am blessed to have had her as my coach.. I found myself looking forward to each session, completely inspired to meet each goal we discussed. I couldn't wait to share each accomplishment, and discuss the next adventure to challenge myself with. Things I had put off for years were completed in a few short sessions. Maria's dedication, professionalism and kindness shine through with each encounter. I highly recommend Maria,  and look forward to sharing more dreams that easily become a reality under her coaching.

This coaching has exceeded my expectations!

One of my biggest challenges was a belief that there just wasn't anyone out there for me. I already had a love story once and that might just be all that life was going to offer me. I felt defeated and hopeless. This program helped me realize that relationships and finding someone is really all about intentionality. I think the self work that you have to do in this program is absolutely priceless! It forces you to uncover so much about your values and what it is you are actually looking for in a mate. It forces you to ask the hard questions and not rely on someone else to answer them for you! Initially, I was worried that I was going to regret spending all this money and not feeling like I learned or discovered anything new! Having now completed this program I have zero regrets and think this process has been priceless!   I felt like Maria was available to process and help me navigate things whenever I needed her! I think I have a confidence now that constantly reminds me that I have all that it takes to navigate relationships and dating successfully! Not perfectly but successfully! I would encourage those considering Maria’s program to be brave and just take the risk! It forces you to pause and take the time to do the work on yourself. I think this program has helped me redefine who I am and be confident in standing on that foundation. I ultimately believe that I met my partner because of this program.-Angie Wilson

I promise you will love her!

Maria is a gifted coach. She is relatable, trustworthy, kind and intuitive. Her coaching style is perfect for those wanting to lean into their own answers with support and guidance from a coach who truly cares about their clients' success. It was a pleasure working with Maria on my goals and I still utilize the tools she helped me design for myself 6 months later!  I'm so appreciative that I got to work with her and brainstorm together for what's important to me.

I have thoroughly enjoyed the program and would recommend it to anyone

Maria is extremely personable and I can relate to her easily. She teaches from experience and I like that she asks us to do activities that she uses in her own life. I have not asked a question or asked for a scenario that Maria doesn’t have some kind of knowledge for. The modules Maria has put together for her program are extremely helpful. I have thoroughly enjoyed the program and would recommend it to anyone.- Angie Taylor

Maria is very professional and considerate!

My overall experience has been really good. It’s been challenging and I’ve gone through a wide range of emotions. I’m learning a lot about myself and I enjoy the conversations. I like that it’s faith based also. I appreciate all the helpful resources and words of encouragement. I have felt comfortable and safe sharing my feelings. I’ve felt like the conversations have been honest. I started off wanting to improve and heal my marriage....and realized that I had a lot of personal work to do on myself beforehand. By doing the work on myself, I’ve discovered the root cause of the majority of my marital concerns. Maria is very professional and considerate! I rate her 10/10” -Dr. Erin Syers Nyarko

The non-judgmental advice and questions for clarification made it easier to speak openly

I had different thoughts and visions scattered in my mind of my values, deal breakers, triggers, etc. This program helped me get clarification and organize my thoughts. I already knew that my past affected me, but really breaking down my fears helped me realize where they were coming from. The program helped me remember my value and therefore helped me with my confidence about future relationships and the importance of holding my boundaries.The support and guidance was key in being able to open up and be vulnerable. The non-judgmental advice and questions for clarification made it easier to speak openly. I gained clarification in what I am looking for in a man and relationship.-Tanya Robinson
