Why do I have to do all this work just to be given a chance?

In this deeply moving live coaching session, Lily talks with Caleigh—a brilliant late bloomer feeling burned out and heartbroken after years on dating apps.

On the surface, it’s dating fatigue. But underneath, they uncover how internalized misogyny shows up in dating: feeling like you have to be less intense, less emotional, or hide your anger just to be seen as desirable.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

✨ Why dating can feel like Groundhog Day, especially for late bloomers
✨ How grief and shame linger around never having had a serious relationship
✨ The truth about anger—and why feeling it might change everything in your love life
✨ How perfectionism sneaks into dating and keeps you stuck
✨ Concrete tools to raise your standards without giving up hope

If you’ve ever wondered why dating feels like so much work, or worried that your big feelings make you “the problem,” this episode will make you feel seen—and give you practical ways to keep going without losing yourself.
