Did you know it is national Life & Dating Coach Recognition Week this week, May 2nd – May 8th? Yes it is, and I’m grateful that dating and life coaches like myself are being recognized. So in spirit of this week, I thought I’d educate you a little about what we do and why people want to work with us.

14 most common Reasons why you would hire a Dating Coach

1. You’re not getting a lot of second dates
2. You’re barely getting ANY dates at all or your dating life is pretty non-existent
3. You keep dating the “wrong” women or men and getting into the wrong relationships.
4. You can’t seem to find any “good” women or men out there that you’re interested in, or the only ones you are interested in aren’t interested in YOU.
5. Your relationships with the opposite sex fall flat – They often disappear or suddenly stop calling back, they frequently flake on you, they fizzle out, or you frequently get stuck in the “Friend Zone”.
6. You find yourself struggling with what to do and how to behave in dating and in a relationship to really keep the man’s or woman’s interest & attraction.
7. You’ve been cheated on or dumped before more than once
8. You suffer from “Approach Anxiety” and find it very difficult to approach women, let along talk to them.
9. You’ve never had a serious relationship before.
10. You have trouble getting a man to want to commit to you or marry you.
11. You’re newly single, recently divorced or widowed, and want to start transitioning back in the dating scene but want to do it right and don’t really know where to start.
12. You want to understand women better, be more successful at dating, and learn how to powerfully attract women and get them to commit.
13. You’re still a virgin.
14. You’re ready and eager to be in an amazing relationship and find your perfect partner.

What is the value of hiring a coach? Well, as I’m sure you know, you can try to lose weight and get in shape 50 times on your own, and keep failing, getting frustrated with the results. But if you hire a personal trainer, one time, you will lose the weight and get in shape – in the best, quickest, most successful way possible.

You can try to reach your business goals year after year, and continue failing to reach them. Or you can hire a business coach and double or triple your income in 1 year.

You can try dating and searching for the one year after year, continuously dating the wrong people, getting in the wrong relationships, or doing the wrong things, wasting years of your precious life, and creating unnecesary emotional baggage along the way…Trying and failing like so many singles do. Or you can hire a coach and get it right, and make it easy on yourself. So, you can keep trying to do it on your own, and doing it the much harder way, guessing and wondering if you’re doing things right and making much more mistakes along the way. Or you can do what the successful and intelligent do and hire a coach to leverage their expertise, help them to see their blind spots, get them “un-stuck,” and reach their goals in a fraction of the time they would have taken on their own. The definition of insanity is trying to do the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Why would you want to make reaching your goals harder on yourself?

Aside from helping you get the dramatic results in the fastest time possible, I also make the process FUN. Dating, or trying to find your life partner should not be a daunting or frustrating process – it should be fun! And with me, I my clients have an amazingly fun and exciting journey combined with incredible results.
