****If online dating feels oddly exhausting, it’s not you. You’re just investing in the wrong moment.**** For Women: The Moment Men Decide What Actually Drives the Swipe Quick thought… If you’re ready to buy a car, you go on Carvana. You look closely. You invest time. Why? Because if you like it and you’re ready, it’s actually available to you. But you wouldn’t walk up and down your street studying your neighbors’ cars, overthinking every detail, wondering if maybe someday they’d let you buy one. That would be exhausting. Rrrright?! Online dating often works the same way and no one ever explains that part. We end up over investing time, energy, and thought in places where decisions are actually made much faster and much earlier than we think. Listen sister, this is not about trying harder. It’s about seeing differently. Before our Ugly Sweater Christmas Party, we’re hosting a FUN, playful, eye opening conversation just for women. We’ll break this down in real time and yes, we’ll actually look at profiles together in a no judgment way. Bring your cell phone, sister. This is interactive, practical, and meant to make you laugh while learning something that immediately changes how you approach online dating. Come one hour early. Insight first. Sweaters after. We’ll keep this small so it stays interactive. We’re not fixing you. We’re fixing the lens. xo, Janine, Nina AND most importantly only FRAZIER 202-271-0922
