Finding love without feeling alone: We’re all in this together

Dating can feel like an emotional rollercoaster. One moment, you’re flying high, thinking, “this could be it,” and the next, you’re back at square one, deflated and questioning if it’s even worth it. When you’re going through these highs and lows, it’s not just draining, it can also start to feel a little lonely.

We all have a story, whether it’s heartbreak from an ex, the heavy feeling of not being enough, or the frustration of yet another disappointing first date. You know the ones, they seem perfect, say all the right things and then ghost you, leaving you wondering if it was something you said or did – or worse, if there’s something wrong with you.

Eventually, dating fatigue creeps in, making you question everything, and you start to wonder if love will ever happen for you. Sometimes, this fear of getting hurt again can be overwhelming, and you start to question whether you should bother dating at all or just accept the single life. 

Then, to top it all off, you’re faced with those dreaded questions from loved-up friends and well-meaning relatives: “So, are you seeing anyone?”. For me, that question used to send me straight back to the sofa with a bottle of wine and a cheese board for one. 

When you’re stuck in this endless cycle of putting yourself out there and getting your hopes up, only to have them taken from you, it’s hard to imagine there are any other options. But what if that little voice in your head (the one that whispers, “maybe there’s more”) is right?

A new way forward: Your new story starts here

For me, that little voice was right. When I hit my breaking point after yet another failed relationship, I found myself at rock bottom – tired of feeling like I wasn’t good enough. I always felt like the one who had to try harder, be better or change everything about myself just to be loved.

Then it hit me: the way I spoke to myself and the way I treated myself were the real roots of the problem. I’d never let anyone speak to my friends the way I spoke to myself. It was time to stop tolerating the cruelty of my own inner voice and choose something different, to follow those quiet whispers telling me I was meant for more.

So, I made a bold move and chose me. I booked a women’s yoga retreat—equal parts hopeful and terrified—and spent seven days surrounded by others who shared their stories of heartbreak and self-doubt with raw vulnerability. There was power in being with women who truly understood what I was going through, women who had lived my same stories. Together, we showed up, let go, and chose to begin again.

We reminded ourselves that we weren’t alone and inspired each other to stop settling. That retreat became the space where I stopped waiting for life to happen to me and started rewriting my own story, not from a place of panic or fear but from hope and possibility.

For the first time, I really heard myself. I gave myself space to heal and let go of the crushing weight of expectations I’d carried for years. Something shifted. I felt lighter, freer and ready to stop waiting for someone else to make me feel loved. I decided I could do that for myself. This wasn’t about finding “the one.” It was about finding me.

Can you imagine that feeling? Confidence, freedom from timelines, and genuine excitement about what lies ahead. Picture yourself as I was: surrounded by incredible women who lift you up, inspire you, and create a space where you can reconnect with yourself in empowering and exciting ways. Instead of obsessing over when it will happen, you cultivate a quiet confidence that it will—because now, your focus is on you.

The power of shared experiences

When women support one another, something powerful happens. When we share our stories, we realise it’s not just us and instantly feel less alone. We spot red flags sooner, save time and heartache, and most importantly, we remind each other that we’re not only worthy—we’re meant for more than we’ve been settling for.

Love doesn’t start when someone else comes into your life. It starts with how you show up for yourself. Finding the right kind of love begins by creating a life that feels so full and true to who you are that any love that enters it only complements what you’ve already built.

Project Love: This is where your story changes

I created Project Love to be a movement. Starting again in January, the program offers a space for like-minded women to come together and rewrite their stories; to grow, and support one another. 

Built upon my Meet the One Method, it’s the same process I used to work on myself, and just two months later, I met my husband. It’s also the framework I’ve used to guide my clients, help them break free of old patterns, and open themselves to love.

Are you ready to join us?

Now is your time to stop doing this alone! Join us and surround yourself with women who understand, who will challenge and inspire you, and remind you that settling isn’t an option. It’s time to choose you. Rewrite your story from a place of possibility.
