Episode Description
Dating fires up the dopamine that ADHD brains crave. Developing a relationship is new, exciting, and sometimes all-consuming — all of which can create elation and/or a perfect storm for ADHD traits like impulsivity, emotional sensitivity, and hyperfocus to ignite a fire. In this webinar, we’ll explore the complexities of online dating profiles and connections, first meetings, and the early stages of relationships — and introduce the process of mindful, conscious dating.
Join Master Certified Relationship Coach Amie Leadingham as we delve into dating apps, and learn why impulsivity, novelty-seeking, and people-pleasing can draw people with ADHD to prospects who appear to be risk-takers but not ideal partners. You’ll learn the importance of presenting your authentic self, setting healthy boundaries, and recognizing potential red flags. This isn’t just about finding love. It’s about embracing who you are on the road to discovering the healthy relationship you deserve.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- Strategies for creating an effective online dating profile that showcases your authentic self
- How to identify potential red flags and read between the lines in other people’s profiles
- Guidance on navigating common dating scenarios, including love bombing, impulsivity, and ghosting
- Techniques for setting and maintaining healthy boundaries
