Episode Spotlight: How to get over the fear of dating Jul 15, 2025

Show notes

Dating can feel like a rollercoaster of emotions—excitement, hope, fear, and sometimes, pure panic. In this episode, we're tackling the fear that keeps so many incredible people stuck on the sidelines. If you've ever thought, What if I get rejected? What if I say the wrong thing? What if I'm not enough?—this one's for you.

I'll walk you through how to move through dating fear with self-compassion, community, and a whole lot of self-trust. Because here's the truth: fear is normal, and it doesn't have to be in the driver's seat.

You don't have to be fearless to find love—you just have to be willing to take messy, brave action toward what you want.

Hit play, and let's reframe your fear into power.

Takeaways:

✨ Self-compassion isn't just nice; it literally helps your body handle stress better.

✨ Feeling afraid to date? That's human. You're not alone.

✨ Messy action beats overthinking every time.

✨ The right person won't need you to perform or say the perfect thing.

✨ If you desire more, it's because it's possible for you.

Let's go get you what you want. 💫

242. "I Want Love—But I'd Like to Skip Dating, Please"-- Live coaching session Jun 17, 2025

Show notes

Today's podcast episode is a coaching session with Michelle. She's in her 50s, divorced after a 24-year marriage, and getting back into dating after being with one person her whole adult life.

In this raw and powerful coaching session, we unpack the overwhelm of dating apps, the anxiety of being "naive," and the pressure late bloomers feel to already know how dating is supposed to work.

Michelle shares how:

→ Dating apps make her feel panicked in 3 minutes or less

→ She's afraid she missed the memo on how to flirt or date

→ All she really wants is a partner to laugh with at a family campsite, but dating feels like an IMPOSSIBLE way to get there.

We talk about self-compassion, letting go of judgment, and what it means to stop settling—not just for the wrong relationship, but for a miserable dating life.
