Meet Your Coach
Hello, I'm Laurie.
I've been at the coaching game for over 25 years. I specialize in women and men over 50 who are getting back into the dating pool after a long break, a divorce, or the death of a spouse. That's my sweet spot.
I'm a truth bomb dropper. I get right to the point. I like solutions, I like answers, and I like to be direct.
I'm trained in the Handel Group® method, and I've spent 25 years learning what trips daters up and how to clear it.
If you're over 50 and confused or overwhelmed by the dating game, you're in the right place.

It's natural that after all you've been through, raising kids, building a career, running a household, maybe surviving a divorce, you want to find healthy love without repeated disappointments. So you can enjoy life's adventures with a true partner.
But dating is totally different now. It's overwhelming and exhausting, and you never learned how to do it. The great news is it doesn't have to be such a challenge.
That's exactly what Master the Art of Love for Women is built to do.
It's twelve weeks of live coaching with me, in a group of six women, with a plan built around your own dating history. You get personal coaching, structure and homework, and a small circle of women doing the same work alongside you.
You'll walk away knowing:
- Whether you're truly ready, and what you want now
- How to date with a system instead of guessing
- How to vet, and tell within a few dates whether someone is worth your time
- How to have the hard conversations that reveal whether you're a match
If you're done leaving this to chance, this is where you start.
Does Any of This Sound Familiar?
You've succeeded in so many areas of life. But dating is the one place it hasn't clicked.
Maybe you meet someone promising and it fizzles after a few dates, and you can't name why. Or you keep landing in the same disappointing pattern, and it's hard to see clearly from the inside.
You've probably wondered:
- Why haven't I succeeded before, when I've worked on myself, read the books, and tried the apps?
- Am I picking wrong, or just not getting picked?
- What if my kids aren't on board with me dating again?
- Can this work if I've never had a relationship that really worked?
There's a system. And it works.
The January 2027 group is limited to six women. Applications close December 11 or when the group is full, whichever comes first.
Here's What's Different About Dating at This Stage of Life
Love is really complicated. If it were simple, everybody would be great at it. Guess what? Hardly anybody is. So you're not alone in finding love to be the final frontier.
Many of the strategies that made you successful at work or in parenting just don't work in dating. And if you haven't dated in decades, the questions have completely different answers now. How do I do a profile? Which site? How do I vet someone online? When do I talk about sex, and what does safe sex look like today?
You need someone who knows the answers, and a group of women asking the same questions.

Master the Art of Love for Women Coaching Program Includes:
Your Personal Plan
Before the group ever meets, you complete the intake homework: your bio, your love history, your traits and your hauntings. I read all of it and build a plan for you, so from the first session I can coach you directly and specifically.
Like a doctor reading blood work, then writing the treatment plan. It's why we can go so deep, so far, so fast in three months.
12 Weeks Live Small Group Coaching
This is the heart of the program. Every week we meet live on Zoom, and every session is recorded. Each one has the same rhythm: a check-in, a hot-seat coaching moment, and homework you turn in.
- First weeks: a full life assessment, clearing your hauntings, your 3H Chart, your assets and liabilities, and your Spark Questions
- Middle weeks: photos and profile, live help on the sites, and a debrief on every video chat and date
- Final weeks: getting ready for exclusivity when it's real, and the hard conversations that come with it
Sessions run 60 to 75 minutes with me, depending on group size. Then the women stay on at least another 45 minutes to keep working together.
Laurie, Between Sessions
Something comes up on a Tuesday that can't wait a week? I'm reachable by email and text between our weekly sessions.
Your Textbook: the Master the Art of Love Course

Date Like You Mean It Workbook
You can't improve what you don't measure. The workbook is where you track everything.
- Your Relationship History, and what it has to teach you
- 3H Love Charts, to see at a glance how your prospects are doing
- Spark Questions, your go-to for what to talk about on dates
- Post-Date Journals, to stay conscious of how your dates are really going

"If someone had told me a year ago that life and dating coaching would have such a positive impact on my life, I probably wouldn't have believed them. This has been about so much more than dating. One of the biggest gifts has been recognizing the patterns that kept leading me to choose men who simply weren't capable of giving me the kind of healthy, loving relationship I was looking for. I've been to counseling before, and this went far beyond anything I've done in the past. It gave me a framework and the tools to change in a truly empowering way."
Kim V., 67, retired from marketing
Why This Program Works When Other Things Haven't
Other dating programs address mindset, or action, but not both. You need both.
- It's personal. Your plan is built from your own history, so we work on what's actually in your way, not a generic checklist.
- It's proven. These methods come from the Handel Method® and 25 years of coaching daters.
- It's built around accountability. Six women, weekly sessions, real homework. You don't drift.
- It's practical. We work on the actual dates you're going on this week, with real people.
When you're done with Master the Art of Love for Women...
- You'll feel ready to date and confident in your likelihood of success
- You'll have a system for dating that saves time, energy and repeated disappointments
- You'll have rehearsed questions and canned responses to speed along getting to know someone
- You'll have the tools for the conversations that reveal whether you're a suitable match
- You'll have team support and cheering
- You'll know you can find your true partner and maintain a healthy relationship
This Is Not a Support Group. It's a Coaching Group.
It's not a therapy group either, though a lot of women tell me what we uncover goes further than counseling did. The focus is results: you, dating happier and healthier, and ending up in a lasting, healthy relationship.
And when a small group of women sits together comparing notes, it's incredibly catalytic. You feel seen, known, normal. People stay on for hours after.
What It Takes
Before we start, you'll spend time telling me your story. It's a little like applying to college. That upfront work is why we can go so deep in three months.
- Intake homework before we start
- 5 to 10 hours
- Dating and homework each week
- 2 to 3 hours
- Your textbook
- Master the Art of Love course ($669, sold separately)
- Investment
- $2,997
- Payment
- Pay in full or payment plan
If now isn't the right season, that's okay. There will be another group.
F.A.Q.
How much does it cost?
$2,997 for the 12 weeks, paid in full or on a payment plan. The Master the Art of Love course is separate ($669), and many women already own it. If you come back for another round, it's the same price, and you skip the intake homework.
Not comfortable in a group?
I'm not going to make you share things you feel are too personal, but you will get personal coaching. A few weeks in, you're going to want to tell everyone.
I've already done therapy. Is this redundant?
Not at all. Processing on your own, even in excellent therapy, teaches you why a pattern exists. It rarely gives you live feedback on the actual dates you're going on this week. This builds on whatever therapy has already given you.
What if I bring up something really painful?
No problem. We work through most of your past before the group even starts. If something from childhood or past love is in the way, we clean that up.
What if my kids aren't on board?
Sometimes your kids aren't ready even when you are, and that's real. The same communication tools that help you with a new man help with grown kids too. Same skill, pointed in a different direction.
What if I've never had a relationship that worked?
Yes, this can still help. One of my specialties is helping women who have never had a successful love relationship finally own that they deserve it. Some of what gets in the way goes back to childhood, and we work on that.
I'm scared to commit to three months.
You'll know you're ready when you're tired of the strategies you've tried on your own, and willing to take an honest look at the patterns you keep repeating. We build that readiness together in the first few weeks.
Will it work if I live in a small town?
Geography is never the real obstacle. Everything is online, and the strategy works wherever you live.
How to Apply
Six seats, on purpose. I want the right six women in that room.
- Ask yourself: is this the right time for me? Do I have the time and money to commit right now?
- Fill out the short application.
- We'll have a real conversation before anyone commits.
Group starts Thursday, January 7, 1pm ET · Applications close December 11
