Tired of putting in all the effort while others barely try? In this week’s episode, I share how to stop wasting energy on people who aren’t serious, and focus instead on connecting with people who are ready to meet you halfway. We’ll talk about how the story you’re telling (through your words and energy) can either inspire connection or hold you back. If dating feels frustrating right now, this is what you need . . .

| 0:00.0 | If you are sick and tired of dating advice, because it feels like all dating advice is |
| 0:08.8 | essentially geared towards people who are actually getting on real dates, and you're stuck |
| 0:15.6 | in a dating world where the other side isn't trying at all. |
| 0:20.1 | Not only are they not serious about having a relationship, |
| 0:22.7 | they're not even serious about meeting in person. |
| 0:26.6 | Then this video and what I'm about to say next is for you. |
| 0:31.4 | One of my Love Life members, this is a coaching group I work with year round, |

| 0:39.1 | She said, I have been trying. I have been on dating apps. I even went to a speed dating event recently. I meet people |
| 0:47.4 | and then nothing happens. I am trying.

| 1:28.2 | Don't worry about it. Don't take it as a reflection of you. I think that that is a kind of |
| 1:33.0 | trite answer that people find incredibly unhelpful. It might feel immediately reassuring in some way, |
| 1:39.6 | but it doesn't leave me any better off at the end of it because I'm still stuck in a world |
| 1:43.9 | where it feels |
| 1:44.6 | like nothing is happening. So I gave what I believe to be the real answer to this question, |
| 1:51.3 | which is this. What's up guys? I wanted to tell you about a partnership that I have just started |
