When I launched my most recent program, the Big Dating Nap, I had a few sweet followers reach out and say:

I don't need a nap. I'm in a dating coma! I need a jumpstart.

I thought it was so sweet, and true. So while I didn't dedicated a program to this predicament (though the Big Dating Nap really is designed to act as a gentle jumpstart), I did want to dedicate the episode.

This episode will resonate with folks who face a deep resistance to dating, and have so for an extended period of time. The idea of getting on an app, reaching out to that friend who wanted to set them up with someone, or engaging in conversation with someone they have a crush on fills them with dread. They tend to either suppress all the feelings or stay stuck in a state of rumination.

In this episode I talk about:

• How claims like "I'm too old, I can't deal with the apps, there are no single people where I live..." is actually serving as a mask to the true resistance
• Three common scenarios that I see fueling deep resistance to dating and what to do about them
• How thinking we can just "jumpstart," our dating life is actually working against us, not for us.
