Authentic Dating with Executive Matchmaker and Dating Coach, Sophy Singer

The Yes Collective Podcast with Justin Wilford, PhD

EPISODE #65 - All February we’re focusing on building and maintaining authentic relationships. This week, Jenny and Justin talk with executive matchmaker and dating coach Sophy Singer because she helps people find those authentic connections that lead to lifelong relationships. Sophy knows a thing or two about how to start an authentic relationship, and we wanted to hear it all. Like, how do people start relationships authentically? Don't we all want to put our very best foot forward, hide all the uncomfortable stuff, and hope to reel a person in before getting authentic? And what does it mean be authentic in the dating world?

In this episode, Sophy tells us about how she built her decade-long career as an executive matchmaker, how she coaches clients as they navigate the dating world, why dating is so damn hard these days, why the practices of authentic relating are the key to finding the right person, and how she's disrupting the dating and matchmaking world today. Even if your like us and your dating days are far in the past, you're gonna love hearing Sophy's wisdom, her stories, and her passion for helping people connect deeply and authentically.
