Episode 33 - The Dating Mindset

With February still in full effect, Michele + River continues the discussion around all the aspects of dating. In this episode, we are deep-diving dating from every possible angle. Looking through a new lens (River's favorite NEW word), around our mindset at the old ways. We hope you continue to enjoy this February series around dating. 

When you are opening yourself up to love it's important to know where you stand with yourself. The intention behind dating; long-term partnership, building community, casual or hook-ups. 

1. Learn to Love Yourself

2. Heal the Wounds

3. Allow Yourself to be vulnerable

4. Stop Comparing to Others

5. Explore Your Options

6. Be SELF-focused and take a break from dating if you need to

7. Make it Count. If it works, lean in, if it doesn't... it's cool. Move on.

8. Don't Take it all Too Seriously

Dating should be fun. Instead of going into every first (or second or third) date with the mindset that this MUST work out, approach each meetup as a chance to enjoy yourself and get to know someone else. Without the pressure of needing to fall for the person sitting across the table from you, you can be present and make a more clear-headed decision about how you feel. And if it doesn't end up being the best date ever? At least you'll have some GREAT stories for next week's brunch with the girls! HA HA! 

Hope you enjoy this episode!
