Listen Later

What if I told you that dating doesn't have to feel overwhelming or terrifying?

What if there was a way to approach it that felt as natural as... networking at a business event? What if there was a mindset shift that you could implement today?

This mindset shift is brought to you by a random, funny comment, I made to my best friend while I was getting ready to go on a networking event. A random comment that completely changed the way I view dating. In this episode, I'm breaking down exactly how I reframed dating as networking—and why this simple shift took all the pressure off and made meeting people feel natural again. Whether you're navigating a major life transition, building a business, or just tired of feeling anxious about dating, this reframe will change how you approach connections forever.

⚡Mentioned in the episode:

  • Why dating and networking are literally the same process (with different currencies)
  • Three game-changing takeaways that will transform how you meet people
  • How to approach dating apps like the tools they actually are
  • The power of bringing curious energy, instead of desperate energy

This isn't just about dating—it's about reframing how we approach all human connections. And honestly? It might just change your life like it changed mine.
