About us

Dating feels harder than it should — and most advice is one-size-fits-all that never quite fits you. The Dating Spark is a warm, safe, insightful, judgment-free group for singles who want a better dating experience, grounded in behavioral science rather than clichés.

The big idea: your dating gets “stuck” in a specific place, and it’s different for each of us. There are six stages where dating tends to break — from how you meet people, to how you come across, to how you handle closeness and rejection — and the fix for one does nothing for another. Once you know which one is yours, everything you do next gets easier.

Whether you’re newly single, back after a long relationship, or just tired of dating going nowhere — you’re welcome here. Join us, take a self-check, and find your spark.

Your host: Laura Heft, Ph.D. — Deeper Dating Mentor, Spark Coach, Psychologist & Behavioral Scientist. After struggling with dating herself, she built a science-based system to help singles stop spinning and start connecting.
