Survivor Season 49 Winner on Love, Trust & Winning at Relationships with Savannah Louie

What does it really take to win—in love, life, and on one of the toughest shows on television?

This week on Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with Survivor Season 49 winner Savannah Louie for a powerful conversation about confidence, resilience, vulnerability, relationships, and trusting your instincts when everything is on the line.

Savannah shares how she manifested her Survivor journey from childhood, applying for the show for years before finally stepping onto the island—and winning. She opens up about the power of visualization, mental preparation, and why believing in yourself is often the first step toward success.

Kerry and Savannah explore how Savannah’s background as a journalist helped her dominate the game. From reading body language and building trust quickly to staying calm under pressure, Savannah explains why people skills matter just as much in dating as they do in Survivor.

The conversation also takes a deeper look at Savannah’s real-life relationship, including how competing on Survivor tested her partnership, what anxious attachment taught them both, and how communication helped them grow stronger together.

They also discuss:

Why confidence starts with asking “Why not me?”

How vulnerability builds deeper connection

Why observation is power in dating and life

The danger of being physically present but emotionally distracted

What reality TV fame taught Savannah about relationships

Why timing matters more than forcing outcomes

How to know when the right opportunity is finally yours

Savannah Louie is sharp, inspiring, strategic, and refreshingly honest. Whether you're navigating dating, rebuilding confidence, or chasing a dream that feels impossible, this episode will leave you thinking bigger.
This is one conversation you don’t want to miss.

3 Dating Takeaways from Savannah Louie

What if the only thing standing between you and a completely different life… is one swing?

This episode doesn’t just land—it hits.

Recorded after an unforgettable moment at Fenway Park, Kerry sits down with Wynter Pingle and Johnny Coe—two people who redefine what it means to show up, trust the process, and go after something before you feel ready.

Wynter is a blind musician, runner, athlete, and chef. Johnny is her teammate, guide, and creative counterpart. Together, they pull you into the world of beep baseball—a sport built on trust, instinct, and courage.

But this conversation goes way beyond the field.

It’s about identity.

It’s about fear.

It’s about the moments where you decide—I’m doing this anyway.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

• Why “being a little scared” might actually mean you’re living right

• How Wynter redefined what she thought she was capable of—at every stage of life

• The surprising connection between movement, confidence, and finding love

• What trust really looks like (on the field and in relationships)

• Why community is the missing piece for so many people feeling stuck

• The truth: you don’t fail by trying—you fail by never stepping up to the plate

Standout Moments

• “Until you’re dead, you can always discover new parts of yourself.”

• “People living their lives right are always just a little bit scared.”

• “It doesn’t matter if I beat someone else. What matters is if I beat what I thought I could do.”

• “You miss every shot you don’t take—so keep swinging.”

What is Beep Baseball?

Astrology and Love: Aries Season, and How to Find Love in 2026 with Jill Jardine. Your Astrology Dating Guide for Spring 2026

What does astrology say about love right now—and how can you use this moment to finally find love, take action in dating, and stop repeating old patterns?

In this powerful episode of Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with astrologer and psychic healer Jill Jardine to break down the astrology of love, dating, and relationships during one of the most pivotal seasons of 2026. If you’ve been feeling stuck in modern dating, questioning your path to finding love, or wondering when things will finally shift—this is your moment.

Because, according to this astrology love forecast, everything is changing.

After months of emotional heaviness, retrogrades, and reflection, the energy has officially turned. As Jill explains, all planets are now moving direct, creating a rare window for movement, clarity, and momentum—especially when it comes to love and relationships.

This isn’t a “wait for love” season.

This is a take action, find love, and change your dating life season.

April’s Aries energy brings bold, fast-moving momentum into modern dating, pushing you to confront what’s not working and take real action toward finding love. This is the kind of astrology that sparks first dates, bold decisions, and new beginnings—but it also requires awareness.

Because in this phase of astrology and love, people are moving fast.

Which means:

Connections ignite quickly

Attraction builds instantly

But people can also dismiss potential love just as fast

That’s why this episode breaks down how to navigate dating during Aries season without sabotaging your chances of finding real love.

One of the biggest themes in this astrology dating forecast?

A complete shift in tolerance.

People are no longer settling in relationships that don’t align. In today’s dating world, emotional unavailability, mixed signals, and red flags are no longer being ignored—they’re dealbreakers.

This is a season of:

Choosing yourself

Raising your standards

Letting go of misaligned relationships

Creating space to find real, aligned love

And that’s exactly why so many people are either breaking up—or finally breaking through—in their love lives right now.

But timing matters.

This episode walks you through how to work with the astrology of love from April through June so you can actually succeed in dating and relationships:

April is about action and exploration in dating

May brings grounding, stability, and deeper connection

June reveals clarity—showing you who is right for you and who is not

If you’ve been trying to find love, this timeline is everything.

Another major shift in this astrology love forecast is how we communicate and connect. With Uranus entering Gemini, there’s a rapid evolution in dating, communication, and connection.

This impacts:

Dating apps and online dating

Texting and communication patterns

How quickly people form connections

The desire to find aligned, like-minded partners

But there’s a catch in dating.

While people want deeper connection and real love, they’re also becoming more selective—sometimes overly focused on surface-level traits instead of true compatibility.

The key to finding love in this astrology cycle?

Stay open, but stay aligned.

Kerry brings it back to what matters most in dating and relationships:

You have to put yourself in the right rooms to find love.

Because finding love isn’t about luck—it’s about action, energy, and environment.

This episode is your roadmap to navigating modern dating through astrology, understanding the energy of this moment, and finally taking aligned action toward real love.

The biggest takeaway from this astrology and love conversation:

Don’t sit this one out.

Say yes to the date.

Say yes to new opportunities.

Say yes to meeting new people.

Because the energy right now is designed to support finding love, creating connection, and building something real.

And as Kerry always says—

Take your shot.

Because love isn’t about perfect timing. It’s about showing up when the energy is finally aligned.

Love Story takes us inside one of the most iconic and misunderstood relationships of our time—Carolyn Bessette Kennedy and John F. Kennedy Jr., through the lens of someone who knew her personally. This episode offers a rare and intimate look beyond the headlines and into the truth of who Carolyn really was.

Kerry Brett sits down with celebrity writer Jonathan Soroff, who shared a real friendship with Carolyn before and during her rise into the global spotlight. Together, they revisit the 1990s, a time before social media, when mystery still existed—and how that intrigue became part of Carolyn’s allure.

This conversation explores the tension between love and fame, the pressure of constant media attention, and the emotional cost of being in a relationship that the world is obsessed with. Jonathan shares behind-the-scenes stories that reveal Carolyn’s character, her boundaries, and the quiet strength that made her unforgettable.

They also discuss the current cultural fascination with their relationship and what gets lost when real lives are turned into entertainment. It raises important questions about privacy, perception, and the way society projects meaning onto couples we don’t truly know.

At its core, this episode is about more than a famous love story—it’s about understanding the power of boundaries, the importance of self-worth, and why the most compelling relationships aren’t always the most visible.

Kerry Brett closes the episode with dating insights inspired by Carolyn’s approach to love, reminding listeners that attraction grows over time, boundaries set the tone, and the right person will rise to meet you when you hold your value.
