Lesbians love hard. We put enormous hope, effort and energy into our relationships, yet all too often, we end up hurt.
Why is it so hard to love and be loved in ways that meet our needs?
Why is it so often hard to even accept that we have needs?
Have you ever poured yourself into another person, giving her everything, sacrificing yourself in the process -- only to have her leave, or to eventually get so frustrated and resentful that it just doesn't feel worth it any more?
So many of us have -- and ironically, giving someone else your all and getting little in return is MORE likely to blow up a relationship.
You are not alone, and it's time to create a different life script. Check out the 8-Week Get Your Needs Met Intensive Here
Have you ever found yourself saying Yes when you wanted to say No, but thought, "This is just the price I have to pay to be loved?"
It's not. But few of us know how to say No in ways that actually build connection, so you might have tried it a few times and vowed, "Never again."
In this >8-week Get Your Needs Met intensive, all of that can change.
You'll learn the art of interoception, listening to your own inner signals to actually know what it is you want and need.
You'll learn the old beliefs that keep you blocking yourself from what you most want to receive, and how to repattern them.
You'll get good at identifying the real "needs beneath the needs," which makes it much easier to get your actual needs met.
You'll learn why being "needy" is a good thing -- and an inevitable, human thing -- and the most empowering ways to claim your needs and develop a whole life based on what fills you up and brings you joy.
Here's the thing. People who love you generally want to meet your needs, just as you want to meet theirs. But a whole lot gets scrambled when we get scared, triggered, or start to lose ourselves.
This class will help you understand why lesbians and queer women face particular challenges in this arena, and more importantly, how to turn it around so you can create the fulfilling life you want and deserve.
This class is brought to you by the Conscious Girlfriend Academy, the global leader helping our community prevent heartbreak, date wisely, and love well.
The RSVPS in your local Meetup group don't reflect our audience -- we've got thousands of members in 27 groups around the world, and most of our classes have 50-100 attendees. Join us and you join a whole community of growth-oriented lesbians and queer people coming together to make our lives better. It's time. You deserve it. You've got this!

Join us for this unique opportunity to dive deep into ancient wisdom practices that can bring you deeper levels of peace and healing, while helping you live your truest purpose on earth, with lesbian author and Conscious Girlfriend Academy director Ruth Schwartz.
Why this class? Why you, and why now?
Ruth says, "It doesn't take much to see that our human world is in trouble right now. And I believe core shamanism -- including the deceptively simply but powerful technology of drum journeying, no plant medicines required -- is uniquely well-equipped to help us both survive and transform these times.
"I also believe lesbians and queer people are particularly suited for this 'path of direct revelation,' in which we access guidance ourselves, rather than relying on received wisdom from others. We all know the 'received wisdom' of heteronormativity didn't fit for us. So connecting with the larger realms ourselves is a natural next step.
"Every human culture has acknowledged the existence of non-physical beings, both benevolent and dangerous, but present-day Western culture doesn't teach us how to work with this level of reality. You've probably experienced miracles, synchronicities, or other remarkable mystical or healing experiences -- most of us have -- but we haven't been given the tools to make sense of them, trust them, and receive their fullest blessings in our lives. This series will give you those tools."
Please note: this announcement is going out to thousands of people, so there will be many more attendees than you see in your home Meetup group! To join us, please register and pay at the link above.
About The Instructor
Ruth is author of the book Soul On Earth: A Guide To Living & Loving Your Human Life (download a free excerpt here!) She has been practicing and teaching core shamanism since 2003. She published the Amazon-bestselling book Conscious Lesbian Dating & Love in 2015 (start reading it for free right here) and founded the Conscious Girlfriend Academy in 2020. Since then, the Academy has helped lesbians and adjacent queer people in 25 countries learn to prevent heartbreak, date wisely and love well.
Now, the Academy is expanding its mission and developing a Queer Spirit series, centering our community but also welcoming our close allies -- because it's time to give this world everything we've got. If not now, when? Hope to see you in Soul On Earth (you can also watch our free intro class on that page.)
