Roadmap Connection GroupTonight's Topic: Listening Deeply & With Empathy
Most of us yearn to feel heard. Deep, empathic listening can do a lot for all our relationships, including helping us get closer to one another, and resolve hurt feelings and conflicts. Let's come together to practice this kind of listening.Want to join us? Take these three steps:
- If you don't already have the book Conscious Lesbian Dating And Love: A Roadmap To Finding The Right Partner And Creating The Relationship Of Your Dreams, you can pick up a FREE PDF copy of the first four chapters from that link! (Or order a hard copy or Kindle copy, of course). It's great if you can read the suggested chapter ahead of time, though not mandatory.
- The course that supports women in making use of the material in the book, so it doesn't just stay in your head, but actually gets embodied in your dating life, is called The 12-Week Roadmap to Conscious Lesbian Dating & Lasting Love. Read more about that course here, and sign up for it if you're moved to! That sign-up will give you access to all of our Tuesday night gatherings, and many others.

Is Conscious Girlfriend's Find True Love Online class right for you? See if you can relate to any of the following:
-- You're smart, thoughtful, conscious, spiritually-oriented, and have high standards, so you wonder whether you could actually meet your match on a dating site, but you don't know how else to find her.
-- You've put off online dating because you're just not sure how to do it -- which apps to use, what to say in your profile, how to reach out, how to protect yourself from people who misrepresent themselves, and how to keep your heart safe.
-- Or you're already online, but it's not working for you. You spend too much time swiping, don't see many women who meet your criteria, and often don't hear back from the few women who do.
-- You've had painful relationships in the past, so you're wary about dating. You wonder if you can really trust yourself to know who is right for you. Chemistry matters, but you also don't want to get fooled by it.
-- You feel too old to waste your time, but too young to live the rest of your life alone. A little voice inside you sometimes says, Who am I kidding? There's no one out there for me.
-- You wonder if it even makes sense to look for love again. You've got a pretty good life being single, so shouldn't that just be enough? Yet your heart won't let you give up.
If you can relate to any of that, you are soooo not alone! Here's the truth:
💜 When you know how to do online dating right, it makes a world of difference. The Find True Love Online class will help you feel confident, sure about what you seek and what you offer, and able to trust yourself and love.
💜 Online dating sites and apps want you to just keep swiping forever, so you'll keep paying them. The Find True Love Online class will teach you how to make the dating sites and apps work for you rather than against you, so you can find real connection much faster.
💜 Compatibility is complicated, especially when you're over 50. But many of our students are in their 50s, 60s, 70s and 80s. So it is NEVER too late.SIGN UP HERE FOR THE 12-WEEK CLASS
Imagine being able to:
💜 Create an online profile that accurately, specifically and powerfully describes who you are and what you want, so you stand out from the crowd and draw the right woman to you.
💜 Feel strong, confident and comfortable venturing into online dating, because you know how to do it right.
💜 Know which dating site(s) and app(s) make sense for your specific needs, and exactly how to use them -- so you can stop wasting time, steer clear of women who aren't safe for your heart, and find real love.
💜 Trust your power of discernment and stay true to yourself and your vision as you date—while keeping your heart open, so you can actually enjoy the process.
💜 Have a clear map of "best practices" to follow, including how to reach out, how long to message before meeting, what to do and not do on your first few dates, how to handle long-distance dating, how to respond to red flags, and more.
💜 Understand how healthy attraction and long-term compatibility truly work, so you can recognize the partner who is actually right for you.
💜 Get supported by a group of like-minded, growth-oriented lesbians and queer women who hold you accountable, cheer you on, and keep you motivated in taking the steps to find your true love.
💜 Engage with online dating as an honorable part of your growth path -- a way for you to not only find love, but be love.Classes will be recorded, so it's fine if you can't attend live (though it's great if you can!)
We will match you with class "buddies" to keep you accountable.
And to really get the support you need, we highly recommend you join our yearlong program! - Network event4 attendees from 26 groups hostingConscious Lesbian Elders Support & Connection Group: Dating & Friendship At 64+Link visible for attendees
