36. Building an unapologetic dating life
Today, I want you to practice CLAIMING why you are awesome. What you love about yourself. Why someone is going to feel so lucky to call you their partner. Pushing down what made me EXACTLY who I was, why I was awesome and complicated and beautifully “too much”, it made me feel like a hollow husk of myself in my dating life. That all changed when I shifted the focus to exactly why I loved myself, why I was worthy of love, what I was bringing to the table on dates, that’s when dating started to feel like self-care. In this episode, I am going to share how I made the shift and how you can too. With this shift, dating became an opportunity to explore and live out what I loved about myself. What if you approached your dating life while clearly knowing exactly why you’re awesome? How would it change the way you approach your dating life? You are brilliant. You are amazing. It’s time to unapologetically build your dating life. DATE BRAZEN ON INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/datebrazen SHOW NOTES: https://bit.ly/3eIDmbn

32. Why you need to celebrate where you are right now
Alright, so you’ve acknowledged that dating isn’t easy. And...you have lost sight of why you are awesome and why someone will be lucky to be your partner. So, now what? Well, gorgeous friend, this episode is going to be your baby step forward towards transformation. Where to start? By acknowledging what you bring to the table. Maybe you’re saying to yourself, “Lily, I know I’ve accomplished a lot. And it feels like some of my accomplishments have been at the mercy of finding a person.” This episode is a reminder to acknowledge the work you have done, and then to give your brain a break from the flight or fight response. When you do, your higher functioning can step back in and imagine a different way to go about dating. You want something more and you are ready to get it.

Bonus: Why dating is so f*cking hard (and what to do about it).
I’ve worked with hundreds of people and most everyone says a version of: “I don’t know what’s wrong with me. Dating shouldn’t be this hard, it wasn’t for my friend/coworker/mom.” If you think that dating should be easier than it is, this is the episode for you. In this episode, I peel back the curtain of why dating is so hard and what you can do about it.
