The Soulmate Myth EXPOSED: Why You're Looking For The Wrong Person (And What To Look For Instead)
7/1/202647 min
Is love enough to build a lasting relationship? In this episode of The Unbroken Podcast, Richard Akita sits down with entrepreneur, writer, and One Man Thousand curator Kodzo N Doamekpor for a raw, faith-driven conversation that challenges everything you think you know about soulmates, love, and marriage.
Kodzo makes a bold claim: your soulmate is NOT a person — it's an ideal. From the "anima-animus complex" to the real meaning of the biblical "helpmeet," from submission and headship to his controversial relationship "hack," this conversation goes places most relationship talks never dare to. They get into why love alone won't save a marriage, what it really means for a man to lead a home, his journey from pornography to celibacy, and why singleness is a gift — not a waiting room.
Whether you're single, dating, or married, this one will make you rethink how you approach love, purpose, and partnership.

You've written a few things, and one is, she's not your soulmate. Help me understand. What do you mean by she's not your soulmate?

Essentially, it's a feminine part of every man that draws him to do things. So that's his intuition. That is how he can conquer somewhere and cultivate it on top of that. And what happens is that usually as a man, what draws you to another woman is that you see that part of you inside of it. When you're looking for the soulmate, it's not necessarily looking for a person. You're looking for somebody who embodies this ideal. And that's how come a soulmate will not look a certain way. It can be different people who embody that same ideal.

Yeah, it's like, um, it's like a triangle, and both of you are the sides of the triangle, and God is on top. The closer you get to God, the closer you get to each other. It's not about the institution itself, it's the individuals- Right ... who come together in that institution that's causing the problem. So again, bad egg, good egg, omelet
