Are you struggling to date again after heartbreak? Are you afraid of making a mistake and giving your heart to another man who is going to let you down or betray you?

If so, you're not alone.

The hesitation of putting yourself back into the dating scene after everyhting you've been through isn't emotional baggage. It's your brains natural wiring  trying to protect you from getting hurt.

It's a process called emotional dissonance which creates an energetic tug of war between your fears and your heart desires.

When your fear is stronger than your faith your brain essentially says, "Look at your track record—we don't trust you anymore." But what if I told you that with the right mindset and tools, it becomes virtually impossible to make a dating mistake?

Today, I'm sharing three powerful strategies to move beyond fear and date with confidence. First, confront your fears directly by asking "what's the worst that could happen?" When we shine light on our fears, they often lose their power. Second, develop confidence in your ability to protect yourself by honing discernment skills and learning to spot red flags early. I share a powerful story about a client who, after two divorces and a devastating relationship, transformed her dating life by developing these skills.

The third strategy—and this is the game-changer—is developing trust in divine guidance. That intuition or gut feeling you sometimes ignore? That's God's way of protecting you from investing in the wrong relationships. When you learn to listen to and trust this guidance, making another "mistake" becomes virtually impossible.

Remember that past relationships weren't mistakes—they were expensive learning lessons equipping you with insights about yourself and what you truly want. God didn't place that desire for love in your heart without also providing a path to fulfill it.
