Love By Design: Courageous Dating & Real Connection

Love by Design is for people who want substance over swipes. Learn how to date with more ease, honesty, and confidence. Get ready for an afternoon of interactive, insightful workshops, deep connection, and thought-provoking discussions. If you’re single or dating and craving depth, Love by Design blends Enneagram personality insights with gentle, structured conversation rounds, micro-coaching, and simple tools you can use right away. You’ll understand your patterns, read others with more compassion, and connect in ways that feel natural, safe, and genuine.

Who It’s For (and Why You’ll Love It)

This experience is for you if you’re:

💫 Single, dating, or newly open-hearted and ready to connect more consciously
💫 Curious about how your inner wiring shapes attraction, communication, and compatibility
💫 Craving deeper, truer, more human conversations (and tired of surface-level small talk)
💫 Ready to break the cycle of repeating dynamics and learn to spot them early
💫 Someone who’s done the inner work—and is ready to practice connection in real time

Whether you’re a “serial avoider,” “fixer,” “hopeless romantic,” or “fiercely independent,” you’ll walk away with practical tools and heartfelt insight to shift how you experience love.

Expect a-ha moments, laughter, reflection, and a safe space to be real.

What to Expect

Love by Design blends the wisdom of the Enneagram with Louise Walker’s Circle of Courage framework for a powerful, heart-opening experience.

This is not a lecture or singles mixer—it’s an immersive workshop where self-awareness meets connection, courage, and play.

You’ll:
💛 Discover your Enneagram personality type and core motivations
💛 Learn how different types approach attraction, intimacy, and boundaries
💛 Reflect on your personal “loops” and patterns in dating
💛 Practice guided connection rounds that are fun, safe, and deeply human

You’ll leave feeling grounded, seen, and inspired—whether you’re extroverted, introverted, or just curious.

❤️ What You’ll Take Away

🧭 Clarity – Understand your Enneagram type and how it shapes your dating experience
💡 Awareness – Recognize the patterns holding you back and learn to shift them
🦋 Courage – Tools from the Circle of Courage to stay open and confident in dating
🤝 Connection – Genuine new friendships (and maybe a spark or two!)
✍️ Courageous Dating Playbook – Your take-home toolkit for showing up authentically in love

This isn’t about finding “the one.”
It’s about meeting yourself first—and connecting from that deeper truth.

We'll continue the fun and connecting at a post-event "happy hour" at Dada Restaurant across the street!
