Deep dives
Life before Love Is Blind
Before appearing on Love Is Blind, Kelly Chase had a history of dating patterns characterized by people-pleasing and getting taken advantage of. She felt lost in a previous relationship, and her behaviors in subsequent dating experiences were driven by the desire to please others. This led to quick physical connections without developing deeper emotional connections. Kelly recognized these patterns and decided to revamp her life, focusing on personal development, self-love, and intentional living. These changes set the stage for her journey on Love Is Blind.
Dealing with Criticism and Judgment
Being on a public platform brought its fair share of criticism and negative comments for Kelly. Despite the hurtful remarks, she chose not to engage or defend herself against strangers who formed their opinions solely based on what they saw on television. Kelly recognized that the viewers only saw a small part of her story and journey, and she embraced the growth and self-discovery that came after the show. She found strength in her own healing journey, working with a mindset coach, and finding love within herself.
Moving Forward and Future Plans
Kelly is currently focused on her career and thriving in her business. While she still wants to get married and have children, dating is not her top priority at the moment. She believes in finding love when the time is right and is open to the possibilities. Kelly plans to continue sharing her story, particularly as a survivor, and hopes to engage in public speaking engagements and potentially have her own talk show to create a platform for storytelling and impactful conversations.
