In this raw and inspiring conversation, Sally Jane Douglas reveals how she transformed from traditional dating advice to revolutionizing modern relationships by doing something no other relationship mentor will claim: she applies business strategy principles to love, creating intentional partnerships that last. But this isn't your typical relationship guru story - Sally has pioneered a unique approach by treating relationships like strategic ventures, complete with values alignment, clear agreements, and measurable outcomes.

What makes Sally's approach groundbreaking? While most relationship "experts" focus on finding love, Sally teaches you how to design it. Her four-pillar intentional relationship framework has helped thousands of women move beyond the transactional nature of dating apps to create deep, authentic connections. Her methodology goes beyond compatibility to "comfortability" - understanding not just if someone fits your criteria, but if you can truly be yourself with them.

Discover why she believes 50-year unhappy marriages aren't success stories, why online dating creates transactional relationships instead of genuine connections, and how childhood experiences with her parents' relationship shaped her mission to help others build conscious partnerships.

You'll learn her game-changing approach to dating that treats it like a strategic business plan, why she advocates for "fishing where your type of fish are" instead of random app swiping, and her stepping-stone methodology that turns self-awareness into relationship readiness.

Sally shares incredible insights about transitioning from dating coach to relationship mentor, why men fear their partners getting relationship coaching, and how she's now expanding to help couples create the intentional partnerships both people truly want.

This isn't just another dating advice story - it's a profound exploration of conscious relationship building, the psychology of modern love, and how intentional design creates lasting partnerships.
