November 17, 2020

The holidays are just around the corner which means that cuffing season is officially here. Handcuffing or cuffing season is a time when commitment-phobes, ex’s, ghosters, one night stands and more crawl out of the woodwork. As a Dating Coach I see this all the time! Now they suddenly are lonely and want to cuddle so they can find a temporary relationship until just around Valentine’s Day. If you are looking to find a real relationship, I’m going to walk you through how to identify and avoid these time wastin[...]

How Childhood Trauma May Affect Your Dating Choices

October 31, 2020

I consider myself a very honest and authentic person, both in my personal and my professional life. There is one thing about me that I rarely share even to the people closest to me. That is the amount of trauma I experienced growing up. This wasn’t just the typical childhood stuff that many people have experienced, my trauma came in the form of physical, mental, and emotional abuse at the hands of one of the people I looked up to the most. And unfortunately, not until I was willing to look head-on at my trauma,[...]

3 Ways Being Too Nice Can Hurt You When Dating

October 26, 2020

At some point in our life as a child, we are told to be nice. After all, children are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. These statements overall sound harmless but can do more damage than help as children become adults using this harmful belief system that desperately needs to be retired. Even though I'm a Dating Coach now, for the longest time I was very insecure and always looked for external validation because as a child I was constantly being told to be a nice little girl so that people would l[...]

5 Online Dating Photo Tips that Create the Best Profile

October 19, 2020

As a Dating Coach, I can tell you online dating profile pictures matter more than most people think. To get someone to actually read your profile and learn a bit about who you are, you must post good photos of yourself. And “good” doesn’t necessarily mean sexy, staged, or flashy. It means, authentic and complete with a narrative that speaks to who you are and your personality. Photos that are bad will potentially stop you from attracting the right type of person in your life. But a truly good set of photos[...]

Speak Up to Express Your Needs! Ever notice how waiting for “the right time” to express your needs often means they never get addressed? I share my journey of realizing that while we should avoid conversations when emotions are flooding, consistently postponing our needs leads to dangerous resentment. 

Learn the balance between giving space during heightened emotions and still honoring your boundaries through calm, intentional conflict. Discover how speaking up prevents resentment while still respecting emotional states—a critical skill for healthier relationships.

When we truly become still and listen to understand others, something magical happens. By setting aside our mental chatter and focusing completely on what someone else is saying, we create a space of genuine connection.

Active listening isn’t just waiting for your turn to speak. It’s being fully present—noticing not just their words, but their tone, their body language, what remains unsaid. When we listen this deeply to others, we’re actually strengthening our ability to tune into our own inner voice.

Think about it: each time you quiet your mind to truly hear someone else, you’re practicing the very skill needed to hear yourself clearly. The mental stillness required for deep listening becomes a pathway to self-understanding.

Try this today: in your next conversation, take a deep breath and intentionally slow down. Notice when your mind starts forming responses before they’ve finished speaking. Gently return to simply being with their words. This same practice of quieting the noise helps us recognize our own inner wisdom when we need it most.

The gift of your complete attention is precious—both to others and to yourself.
