Dating and relationships don’t have to be hard - but you do have to be intentional.
You don’t need another situationship. And you don’t have to settle. You want alignment, equal effort and energy, and a compatibility that feels like a “yes” in your body—not just on paper.
Whether you're getting back into dating after a break, feeling stuck in a cycle of “almosts,” or ready to be more intentional with how you choose (and are chosen), I’ve got you.
You don’t have to shrink to be chosen.

Knowing your needs, standards, and desires—and owning them
Learning to date without over-functioning
Getting real about your patterns—and gently shifting them
Choosing you, first—so love becomes a bonus, not a lifeline
