Conscious Dating Group: Winter 2020

This post is from November 2019. The Conscious Dating Group ran in early 2020 and is no longer offered. If dating has you stuck, I work one-on-one with women and men.

Join the Conscious Dating Group for 6 weeks and change your relationship with dating.

This group was for you if:

• you're dating
• you feel overwhelmed by dating
• you've given up on dating
• you're dating, but things don't seem to work out

The quick and dirty particulars

January 16, 23, 30 and February 6, 13, 20, 2020
7 to 9 pm, $500

About the group

Flexible outline:

• Week 1: get to know the group, set intentions, launching point
• Week 2: "Air Support" (some people call this online dating)
• Week 3: "Ground Support" (meeting people in real life)
• Week 4: boundaries, consent and red flags
• Week 5: physical intimacy, and how to decide about "firsts"
• Week 6: tie up loose ends, give one another feedback, goodbyes

I asked all participants to apply for the group, so I could be sure those who joined were fully committed and ready to grow. And this probably goes without saying, but: no dating members of the group during the six weeks.

Never been part of a group?

A group isn't for everyone. You get less individual attention than in one-on-one work, privacy depends on everyone keeping it, and you have to show up at a fixed time.

But there's something a group gives you that one-on-one work can't. You hear other people say out loud the thing you thought only you felt. You get feedback from more than one point of view. And you practice the very skills dating needs, like saying what you want and hearing someone else's no, with people who are rooting for you.
