Hey girl. So if you're a woman of color, I know that you've probably worked really hard to get to where you're at and oftentimes we have to believe that our work product is going to get us in spaces and places that maybe our skin color and our gender wouldn't necessarily be able to get us into. This is what I see is happening for hard working women of color in their love life. That actually you're working too hard in your love life and that's the thing that is hurting you and not helping you get the results that you want. What does working too hard in love look like? It looks like admin ing dates and creating locations and dates for men, calling men, texting men, carrying conversations. You know when a guy has a one word answer and you try to continue to carry him through the conversation? That's doing way too much. I want you to know that the less that you do, the better in dating, which goes against everything that you have been conditioned and programmed to think that in terms of what is going to make you successful. That's why dating can be really tricky and difficult for hard working women. If you want to learn how to date differently, please follow comment below if this resonates with you. And check out my podcast, get yout Guy.
