the feels/Modern Dating 101

dating right now sucks. this course will help you through it.

From the team behind The Feels — which has brought thousands of singles across the country into deeper connection with themselves and each other.

Picture this: You meet someone new and instead of immediately spiraling — do they like me, why haven't they texted, am I too much, not enough — you feel something different. Grounded. Clear. You know what you want. You know what you're feeling. And for the first time, you trust yourself enough to act on it.

That's not a fantasy. That's a skill set. And it's exactly what this course teaches.

Let's be real: modern dating is genuinely broken. 💔

The apps, the ghosting, the breadcrumbing, the situationships - it's not in your head. The system was not designed to help you find real connection. And the painful part - the more you try to figure it out, the more confused and exhausted you get.

Here's what nobodyyyy is gonna tell you: knowing yourself and knowing how to date are two completely different skills. Most self-aware people have only ever built one.

This course is the other one.

In these 8 weeks, we'll help you better understand

Why dating feels so broken right now + why it's not your fault

How to overcome some of the macro-level challenges we’re in

How to trust what your body already knows + use it to make better dating decisions

How to see your patterns clearly for the first time + actually start to change them

New tools for relating 1:1 with people you’re called to

The mechanics of where and how to meet

The Breakdown:

Section 1: You with You

Before you build something lasting with someone else, you have to understand the relationship you have with yourself. This section helps you zoom out from the chaos of modern dating and gently turn inward — toward your patterns, your expectations, your attachment, your nervous system. You’ll explore where you’ve been gripping, where you’ve been protecting, and where you may have left yourself behind. This is about rebuilding self-trust so you can stay with yourself inside love.

Week 1: The Current Dating Landscape
Week 2: A Brief History of How We've Dated + Expectations
Week 3: The Path Forward (aka Mapping a 3-Part Journey)
Week 4: Self Trust + Inner Knowing

Section 2: You in Dyad

When there’s another nervous system in the room, everything gets louder. This section is about learning how to relate without abandoning yourself — getting clear on what you want, practicing honest expression, and staying regulated when intimacy feels vulnerable. We explore slow dating, interdependence, and how to interrupt old spirals in real time. The work here isn’t about doing dating “right,” but about showing up with integrity and steadiness.

Week 5: Clarity On What You Want + Better Dyads
Week 6: Your Nervous System + Interdependence

Section 3: You in Community

Romantic love cannot hold all of our belonging. In this final section, we widen the lens to community — shared values, shared joy, and the ecosystems that make healthy partnership possible. You’ll examine where you may be outsourcing worth to romance and begin strengthening connection in a more sustainable way. Because love isn’t just something you find — it’s something you practice, together.

Week 7: The Importance of Community
Week 8: Shifting Your Identity + Taking Your Practice into the World

FAQs

Is this course self-paced?

Yes, all content is available immediately after purchase. Go at your own pace.

How long will it take each week?

Each week includes a pre-recorded session of about an hour. Beyond that, we recommend setting aside additional time for the journaling and reflection exercises. There's also optional reading and audio material if you want to go deeper. Most people find 1.5 - 2 hours per week feels right, but you can move at whatever pace works for you.

How long do I have access?

Lifetime access, including any future updates.

What makes this course different?

With Beth’s decade of experience as a somatic therapist and Allie’s master’s in spiritual psychology, we bring a unique perspective to the dating industry. Over the past three years, we’ve hosted thousands of people at our events and have seen firsthand how somatic practices can completely shift the way someone shows up in dating.

Will this actually change how I date?

Only if you want it to. If you show up, stay open, and engage with the practices, you’ll walk away with a different capacity in your nervous system, a clearer lens, and an actual plan for how to relate from a more centered you, not your survival strategies.

What if it's not for me?

This course is available to you the moment you purchase - which means all sales are final. We want you to feel confident before you commit, so if you have any questions, reach out to us at support@catchthefeels.co first.

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT OUR ONLINE OFFERINGS

“I realized how quickly I assign meaning to small signals in dating and how fast I can project a whole story onto someone. This helped me slow that down and separate the person from the narrative I create.”

- Eric

"This helped me learn to tap into other parts of my body that had been ignored, and built on the head/body/heart check-ins. Feeling my body system of inner knowing has already been helping me break old patterns - the practice has been super super helpful for using irl."
