081: Three Years Weed-Free: My Dark Night of the Soul & Rebirth (Part 2)

081: Three Years Weed-Free: My Dark Night of the Soul & Rebirth (Part 2)

Two years ago, I shared my story of quitting weed after 10+ years of dependent use. That episode became my most downloaded episode ever.

So many of you reached out saying you felt seen, understood, and vindicated. You told me my story gave you hope. You asked me if I was still weed-free.

The answer is yes. Three years strong. And this is Part 2 of sharing my story.

In this raw and soul-stirring bonus episode of Legacy of Love, I'm sharing what I didn't tell you the first time—the part that broke me open completely. The dark night of the soul that became my greatest spiritual awakening.

Because quitting wasn't just about putting down the weed. It was about learning to feel again. To breathe again. To trust God in the darkness. And to ACTUALLY hold myself through the depths of pain during this death & rebirth.

Inside this episode, I share:

✨ What that first month of withdrawal was really like

✨ The night I scared my husband and myself—and how that moment changed everything

✨ How my faith, breath work, journaling, and emotional embodiment practices guided me through the darkness

✨ Why I couldn't teach women & couples to feel their emotions while numbing my own—and the vow I made to live in integrity

✨ The difference between escaping your emotions and actually feeling them

✨ How I reconnected with God, self-trust, and my purpose in the middle of my breakdown

✨ Why your breakdowns are often the initiation into your breakthrough

If you've ever struggled with numbing, self-sabotage, or coping mechanisms that keep you from your fullest potential—this episode is your reminder that there's life on the other side of letting go.

Because sometimes, God meets you right there—in the unraveling, the tears, the surrender—and teaches you how to breathe again.

IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER:

I'm not an addiction specialist. This episode (& all episodes) are shared for educational purposes only. I'm sharing my own story as someone who is now three years weed-free. When I was struggling, I searched everywhere for other people's stories to affirm I wasn't alone. I wish this was talked about more.

May this episode be an example of what is possible for you too if you're looking to release a toxic coping mechanism.

If you or someone you know is struggling with substance abuse or mental health, this is your loving reminder that it is safe to ask for help. You don't have to do it alone.

080: The Psychology of How Men Fall in Love (And Why It's Different Than You Think)
NOV 28, 2025
080: The Psychology of How Men Fall in Love (And Why It's Different Than You Think)

Why does he pull away after intimacy? Why does he need space when you need connection? Why does he take longer to fall in love — but fall harder when he does?

It's not because he's emotionally unavailable. It's not because he doesn't care. And it's definitely not because you're "too much."

It's because men and women are biologically, hormonally, and neurologically wired to love in completely different ways.

In this episode, Melissa Peters breaks down the actual psychology and neuroscience behind how men bond, pursue, and commit — so you can finally stop taking his behavior personally and start working with masculine biology instead of against it.

Inside this episode, you'll learn:

💋 Why your nervous system panics when he pulls back — and what's actually happening in his brain when he goes quiet

💋 The key difference between how women bond (through closeness) vs. how men bond (through effort) — and why this changes everything

💋 What oxytocin, testosterone, and vasopressin have to do with his pursuit, his pull-back, and his long-term commitment

💋 Why giving devotion too soon actually prevents him from bonding — and what to do instead

💋 The 3 ways men actually fall in love

💋 Why his pull-back after intimacy is not rejection — it's regulation (and how to respond without pushing him away)

💋 What makes a man commit long-term & how to become that woman

💋 The masculine-feminine dance: why giving him space makes him come back stronger, more devoted, and more polarized

This episode will completely shift how you see men, how you interpret his behavior, and how you show up in relationships.

Because when you understand his psychology, you stop feeling insecure, unseen, or unchosen… and you start feeling claimed, cherished, and understood.

✨ Key Concepts from this episode:

  • The "Nothing Box" — how men process emotions differently than women
  • Why men bond through earning you, not through ease
  • The difference between a regulated man and a suffocated man
  • How your softness awakens his protection, your radiance awakens his devotion, and your trust awakens his leadership

If you're ready to stop chasing and start being chosen, this episode is your foundation.

079: How to Manifest Your Dream Partner in 2026 (And What to Avoid)

What if the reason you haven't met him yet has nothing to do with timing, luck, or being "too much" — and everything to do with the unconscious patterns keeping you in a loop?

In this episode, Melissa Peters reveals the real work behind manifesting a conscious, embodied masculine partner — and it's not what you think.

If you're tired of attracting emotionally unavailable men, repeating the same relationship patterns, or feeling like you have to do everything yourself… this conversation will shift the way you show up in love forever.

Inside this episode, you'll learn:

💋 Why you can only receive the love you feel safe to receive — and how your nervous system might be blocking your dream partner

💋 The 3 patterns you must stop repeating in 2026 if you want to call in healthy, devotional love (including the hyper-independence trap)

💋 How to fall in love with your own life first — and why this is the #1 thing that makes you magnetic

💋 Where to actually meet conscious men (hint: it's not just dating apps) — and how to put yourself in alignment with the life you desire

💋 The 3 essential lists every woman needs to create: Non-Negotiables, Nice-to-Haves, and How You Want to Feel

💋 What actually attracts a conscious masculine man (standards, receptivity, belief in the masculine, and your relationship with God)

💋 Why manifesting isn't about vision boards — it's about becoming the woman who can receive him

This is not about chasing, convincing, or settling. This is about becoming so aligned with your desires that your dream partner can finally recognize you, pursue you, and meet you where you are.

Because he can only meet you at the level you've met yourself.

077: Soft Is the New Strong: The Power of Feminine Receptivity in Love & Life
NOV 7, 2025
077: Soft Is the New Strong: The Power of Feminine Receptivity in Love & Life

What if everything you’ve been taught about strength… is backwards?

In this episode, Melissa Peters - relationship and feminine embodiment coach - challenges the modern narrative of “strong, independent woman” and redefines what true power looks like in love, business, and life.

Because real strength isn’t about control - it’s about trust.
It’s about your ability to receive without guilt, to soften without fear, and to lead energetically through your feminine magnetism.

Inside this powerful conversation, Melissa unpacks how softness creates safety, how receptivity awakens and inspires masculine leadership, and why the woman who can relax into her feminine becomes unstoppable - and unforgettable.


💋 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

    • Why soft is the new strong - and how feminine energy thrives in surrender, not control.
    • How to embody receptivity as power, not passivity.

    • The secret behind why men rise in the presence of a woman who trusts.

    • How to receive love, money, and support without guilt or shame.

    • What true feminine surrender looks like — in intimacy, business, and everyday life.

    • Practical ways to practice softness and feminine openness every single day.


    🌹 Key Insight:

    “Soft is not weak. Soft is wise. Soft is magnetic.”
    💎 Why It Matters:

    When you learn to receive instead of control, you stop chasing and start attracting — in love and in life.

    High-achieving women are often praised for their independence, but rarely for their receptivity.
    This episode reveals why control is a trauma response — and how softness rewires your nervous system for love, abundance, and devotion.

    Melissa shows you how to move from performing strength to embodying feminine power — the kind that magnetizes leadership, partnership, and prosperity without force.
