Brooke. You. Are. Amazing. I am totally having a fan-girl moment right now as a new Scholar and actually typing to YOU.

I have been single for 1.5 years. Unbuffered some overeating habits. Buffered back in to a series of casual dating. In 2017, I felt that I was ready for putting myself out there for a relationship. Yet when a man would come along, I was more clear on what I envision as a partner yet it came from a place of fear and so much self-doubt. Yesterday, a gentlemen who I was hoping to date for longer got very offended that I used to casually date.

Wondering if you have any advice on how I can be intentional with my practice
