Providence Dating Coach Success Series – Changing Dishonest Dating Culture

Isn't it time for changing dishonest dating culture? Have we had enough of men and women pretending to be something they're not when dating a new potential partner? Why are honesty and dating concepts that rarely intersect? Does anybody really enjoy finding out eight months later the person they are dating has nothing to do with the person they first met?  Why are we so afraid to show others who we really are? Is it because many of us do not know that answer to the question, Who Am I?  What would be your experience with dating if you could just be yourself? What if dating first impressions were an accurate representation of ourselves?...

The Feminist Guide To Non-Creepy Flirting

I was reading The Feminist Guide to Non-Creepy Flirting and thought it may be helpful to share with readers. I know many men see the word "feminist" and immediately stop reading or become defensive. For the men that this applies to, I invite you to hang in there and reap the benefits of the wisdom and knowledge helping you connect with women that you want to meet. I do not believe anything that is written below is either offensive or disrespectful. In fact, I wish when I was young, the information that is shared here was available to me. I am certain many women along the way would have been grateful as well! I hope you enjoy the Feminist Guide to Non-Creepy Flirting as much as I did....


A Social Experiment in First Impressions

I thought this was an interesting social experiment in first impressions. I do not think it proves anything but interesting still. It is fun watching the different responses people have as they interpret characteristics of people based on little more than first impressions. I think it would be fun to conduct a similar experiment with a variable that isn't part of a marketing campaign....

17 Lies We Need to Stop Teaching Girls About Sex

It is common knowledge that young girls experience incredible pressure pushing them towards and pulling them away from sex. As if girls do not have a choice or their own vote on their sexuality. In reading 17 lies we need to stop teaching girls about sex by Julianne Ross, I am reminded of just how many ways young girls are influenced and pressured to meet the needs of others, whether that be their father, mother, friends, clergy or boyfriends. It's time we collectively begin teaching girls the truth about sex and their own sexuality. The lies we teach them are not productive, nor in their best interests. ...

Providence Life Coach Dating Success Series – Conscious Coupling

Conscious coupling seems to be getting a lot of press these days, celebrities tend to make this sort of thing happen - Madonna at The Kabbalah Centre and Julia Roberts with Hindu are examples of when they speak openly about religion or spirituality. I am not sure why this happens, but it does. I have never seen celebrities as people I wanted to be like, at least not those in the entertainment industry. Growing-up, there were many athletes that gave their time to worthy causes that I looked-up to for that reason int e 60's and 70's. I have never felt drawn to the fact that "so and so" said something, means it is something important or of value. Although it does seem that Richard Gere My Journey with Buddhism has really committed to the study and practice of Tibetan Buddhism without making it feel like a publicity stunt. I happened to be participating in the Kalachakra with The Dalai Llama back in 2000 with Richard Gere and other famous people present for the ten days of spiritual training. They all kept a low profile with no autographs or photos, just like everyone else receiving the training....

Providence Life Coach Dating Success Series – Mindful Dating

What is mindful dating? Mindful dating is bringing all of you to the present, including your Highest Self, to dating. Dating is often thought of as an exercise in wanting to convince someone you are good enough for them, what if we flipped this around to say, "I want to bring all of me to dating and see if we are going to be a sensational down the road after we get to know each other, not just during the honeymoon phase of dating?" What would that feel like for you? ...
