dating differently RESET
you'd rather date with intention than auto-pilot.
ready to notice patterns, build self-trust, and bring a sense of clarity to your dating journey
Maybe you’ve been waiting for love for what feels like forever.
Maybe your heart is just beginning to knit itself back together after heartbreak or loss, and you’re tiptoeing toward dating again—this time wanting to make different choices.
Maybe you’re simply tired. You love the life you’ve built, and you’d rather savor it alongside friends than swipe through another round of profiles. Wherever you are, I’m here to walk with you into this season.
I offer grounded guidance, practical tools, and new ways to weave connection into your everyday life. Together, we’ll explore how to start dating in a way that feels nourishing, collaborative, and true to you.

Dating Differently
Each morning at 6:00am EST, you’ll receive an email with:
a short lesson
a 10–15 minute homework “field notes”
a tiny practice to try that day
That’s it—8 days of structure, insight, and momentum.
At the end, you’ll also have the option to book a
60-min coffee date + mini photo session if you’d like deeper support.
what folks have said:
Thank you for holding space for us. This experience has been meaningful, and I'm excited to see what might come next.
Thank you for guiding us through such a powerful and insightful week. I've learned so much over these seven days, about myself, my patterns, and what I truly want in a relationship and community.
I've already told three people about pacing intimacy, each of whom need to know about it as badly as me.
My view on dating has changed significantly in the last week. Honestly, I'm a pretty intentional person, but your prompts are so thoughtful, I realize how much I'd been going off of vibes and instinct. Which I'd like to rely on a little less.
I was quite reluctant to think about putting myself back out there a week ago. But I've learned so much in the last few days that I'm actually excited at the thought of trying to meet someone now!
My view of dating has shifted, namely how I show up...wanting to bring more of my good energy than wait to show it when things feel like they are moving along. I think there is power in showing that and scooting a long if its not reciprocated.

"I just keep walking away from these exercises with "I have power. I have control." which is so the opposite of my childhood and upbringing and young dating life and it's making me cry again. I'm still totally 100% great if a partner never happens for me but I haven't been even remotely hopeful or even curious about dating for a long time and I am now and that is kind of lovely."
"It’s less that my views on dating changed and more that my view on ME continues to change. I am in control. I have so much power. And taking my time is my friend."
"I feel more confident and in control, I feel like I have a different perspective on dating now. I feel like pressure has lifted and it’s okay to go slow and be myself.
I’m fascinated by everything in this course.
For me this course has not just been about relationships, It’s about working on myself. I want to be the best partner I can be to someone out there. but to get there, I feel like we really have to put the work in, and this course just reiterates that.
Thank you Rachel, for opening my mind, opening my heart, opening my soul to all this wonderful insight and education! I am excited to keep learning and growing!"
