My special guest today is Kate Greenhalgh and she’s simplifying how to plan the perfect date night.
We tackle and simplify all aspects of it, including:
- Where couples tend to go wrong when dating each other and what dating myths are simply not true
- How to assess your partner’s personality traits and strengths, as well as your unified couple strengths when planning a perfect date night and why that is important
- What role mystery and a sense of adventure plays into a great date night – why you need to lean into this more
- She shares a handful of creative date night ideas that could spark fun, romance, or just something refreshingly different that helps foster a deeper connection with the other person
- …and ultimately, what to do if you (or your partner) are reluctant or standoff-ish about trying new things on a date… and how to find a happy medium, instead.
All this month, we are focused on the theme of “Adventure + Play” to shake things up a bit… bring a lighter energy to the table to work with.
And I just love the idea of you guys getting out there and planning super fun dates this week, after listening to this conversation. I want to hear all about it!
I encourage you to test a few ideas out this week and report back to me (DM me on Instagram! @thesimplifiers !)
- What new ideas did this conversation spark for you?
- What things might you try this week?
Share this episode with your loved one and have a chat about it… sometimes a little nudge like this might be the thing you need as a couple to get unstuck.
You can do it, I believe in you… it’s time to simplify!
