“We met through the magic of birthday energy” with Damona Hoffman
In this episode of Missed Connections, Lizzy presents a story to Beth that has the magic of birthday energy, the push and pull of a new relationship, and one of those text conversations that leaves you crying in the airport bar. It’s a missed connection.
Lizzy and Beth bring in Damona Hoffman, a celebrity dating coach, author of F The Fairy Tale, host of the award-winning podcast Dates & Mates, and the official love expert of The Drew Barrymore Show, to talk about dating these days and why it’s so hard. Or is it?
In F THE FAIRY TALE: Rewrite the Dating Myths and Live Your Own Love Story, Damona shines a light on the habits and beliefs—like instant chemistry and finding “the One”—that are setting us up for failure before we even have a chance to swipe right. She tackles the four major dating myths that are derailing singles today: The List Myth, the Rules Myth, the Chemistry Myth, and the Soulmate Myth. Instead, she identifies four pillars necessary to build lasting relationships: goals, values, communication, and trust.
