Hooray We're Newlyweds!
Singles! Here’s a podcast I recently did with Dr. Karin Anderson Abrell of Love & Life for National Singles Week! In this episode:
“It’s National Unmarried and Single Americans Week, and to kick things off, we’re bringing back Love & Life fan favorite, Dr. Duana Welch, to talk about the revised version of her classic book, Love Factually: 10 Proven Steps from I Wish to I Do.
From the very first time I read Love Factually, it became my go-to “how to date smarter, not harder” resource, because every recommendation Dr. Welch provides is grounded in psych research.
Other authors share their opinions. Dr. Welch shares the data!
In this episode, Dr. Welch gets personal and recounts how she recently followed her own advice and met her fiancé online in a matter of weeks! She lets us in on the key elements of her coaching practice and discusses how she’s helped hundreds of clients find their person.
Join us to learn how to date smarter with science! And, be sure to take advantage of Dr. Welch’s offer for a FREE 15 minute mini session to determine if you’d like to work with her.

Wise Readers,
Here’s a new podcast I just did with Women In The Arena on how you can find love right now. Not when your life is perfect, or when you feel ready. Right now. Using science, of course!

Wise Readers: Is your or your partner’s attachment style avoidant—that is, do you/they fear being smothered? Simply adding positive small daily experiences can help the avoidant partner feel more bonded and trusting—that is, to embrace more closeness.
Weirdly, though, positive experiences with their partner *did not* help ppl with an anxious style (those who fear being abandoned). The researchers say this about it:
“”One should keep in mind that positive relationship experiences are not cure-alls for achieving attachment security,” Gunaydin told PsyPost. “In our research, positive relationship experiences contributed to lower romantic avoidance, but not lower romantic anxiety. Romantic anxiety is characterized by worrying that your partner might reject or abandon you. But experiencing positive things in your relationship doesn’t seem to significantly alleviate these worries.”
“”According to recent theorizing (Attachment Security Enhancement Model by Ximena Arriaga and colleagues), anxious attachment is linked with having negative self-views. So, based on this framework, behaviors counteracting negative self-views (such as encouraging your partner to independently pursue their own goals) likely play a more pivotal role in reducing romantic anxiety.
“”Moreover, all participants in our studies experienced a relationship transition as they were in the initial months of either a new dating relationship or a marriage,” Gunaydin explained. “Starting a new relationship, getting married, becoming parents, or breaking up are often seen as key events that offer greater possibilities for changing attachment patterns. So, our participants were at an ideal time in their relationship to test the links between positive relationship events and romantic avoidance. However, further research is needed to see to whether our findings would hold for couples in more stable periods of their relationship.””

Guess who is getting married in just a few more days?!
Yep—my love and I.
And that’s why you haven’t heard much from me lately.
Did I use *everything* I teach and write about to find him, to connect deeply, and to build our lives? Yes! And I want to share it with you.
So here are three special podcast episodes—all about finding and keeping love, based on science not opinion—and I’m just now releasing them for the first time:
1. https://podcasts.apple.com/…/how-do-i…/id1183475201…
How do I find the love I deserve? (Special Singles-Week episode with Dr. Karin of Life & Love with Dr. Karin)
2. https://www.buzzsprout.com/1177217/11265807
Using science to attract The One for you (Women In The Arena episode with Audra Agen)
3. https://www.toginet.com/…/SparkingWholenessLIVE_2021_11…
What is clear communication, anyway?
