You Contain Multitudes

Is it Hard to Date as a Dating Coach?


Listen Later

I often get asked what it’s like to date, as a relationship expert, and I can honestly say that because I practice what I preach, it’s not that hard. I’m continually investing in learning how to communicate, take care of myself, heal, and move through the world with a default compassion. Doing this work helps me stay curious about other people, commit to showing up authentically, and bring a certain playfulness back into dating.

My preferred dating method is to be out into the world, doing things I love in spaces that light me up, and meeting people organically in those environments. But, that’s been challenging given that I’m currently living in a rural area and things are slowly opening up post-pandemic. So, like most people, I’m on dating apps and meeting more people in the sort of ‘blind date’ setting.

Online dating can feel exhausting, but I’m sharing where I’ve been able to improve my approach and energy around meeting people via apps. I dive into why it’s so important to be your true self when you’re dating and show up in a way that you feel really good. I also talk about situations where I’ve had to confront my own internalized stereotypes about certain careers and lean into uncomfortable conversations.
