We will explore how to connect authentically without feeling drained or pretending to be someone you're not, all from the comfort of your own home.

Dating in New Orleans can often feel designed for extroverts. From lively festivals to bustling French Quarter nights, the pressure to be 'on' can be a major source of stress.

We will discuss practical ways to manage your social energy so you can enjoy the process, even in a high-energy city. You'll learn about choosing dating environments that suit your temperament—like a quiet Mid-City coffee shop over a crowded Bourbon Street bar—and how to have deeper conversations instead of superficial ones that go nowhere.

You will explore topics such as:
