This week we dive into a listeners dating dilemma accompanied by the fabulous Lorraine Glover.
This dilemma is one that many of us will relate to. If you’ve been dating for a few years now we can sometimes start to believe that WE are the problem? If on paper all of these people are perfect… Why don’t you like them? Will you really just ‘know’ when it’s the one? How many ‘slow burner’ dates do we need to sit through until we know they may or may not be our soul mate? Or perhaps…. Is the problem YOU?
As always we share our personal opinions, stories, advice & have some giggles along the way. This episode is definitely one that will help you level up in your self development journey & overcome dating fatigue.

Mark Fennell joins Nathalie to discuss a listeners dilemma - How can we overcome the fear that we could be single… forever?
Dating can be tiring, time consuming & exhausting. If you have spent a long time trying to find ‘the one’, with each connection eventually reaching a dead end, it’s hard to believe you’ll ever find ‘your person’. This fear of being ‘forever single’ is a common one, but how can we overcome it & be happy in the moment? Owning our single status? How can we stop our relationship status from defining our happiness & distracting us from the now? Mark shares some invaluable insights & personal experiences to help you switch that fear into a strength. Get ready to view this in a totally different light on this week’s episode!

Are they the right person for you? Is this the right time for love? Are you ready for a relationship? Are they ready? Is it true love, or short term infatuation?
