Each new year for the five long years that I was single, I resolved to find my Mr.Right. For five years, I failed.

Why? Because I needed to learn to be a better dater first. I had to improve my intuition, develop the ability to have difficult conversations, and get clearer on what I was...

There is something about winter that makes me want to sit by a fireplace and read Jane Austen's. I just re-read Pride and Prejudice and I was struck by how many of the lessons in the novel are just as applicable to daters today as they were in early 19th century England. Societal norms...

A friend and fellow coach, Sara Weeks,  posted recently that she has been training for the NYC marathon. I was filled with admiration. I’ve never run a marathon. The idea intimidates me. Me being me, I immediately used the moment to berate myself for not ever having run...

Today wanted to share my review of my new favorite dating book Tinder Translator: An A–Z of Modern Misogyny. You can also read my review on Amazon, but they made me remove my favorite quotes at the end of the review because of “bad language.” :-/

I love this quote because it encourages us to learn from our experiences. It takes away the pressure of being perfect when we start out. Through quiet...

One of the most common questions that I get asked about dating coaching is:  Does it work?

Does coaching work?

Yes, coaching works.  Every year thousands of companies spend millions of dollars on coaching for their senior leaders and they wouldn't do it if there wasn't ample evidence...

I speak to a lot of women’s groups and one question that has been top of mind for single women recently is intentional dating. They want to know what dating with intention is, if it works and if they should try it. 

Whether you call it intentional dating, dating with purpose, or...

We’ve all had the experience. You exchange a few texts with a cute guy. He seems kind of funny and you both enjoy the same kind of music and movies. So you agree to set up a date. You go to the date with a positive mindset, wondering, in the back of your mind, if this will be the date that...

Before you go on a date, you may want to decide what kind of date you want to have.

One way to do this is by setting an intention. What’s an intention? One of the best descriptions I have heard comes from Monica Berg, host of the Spiritually Hungry podcast.  She describes...
