Let's face it...

You’re not single because you can’t get a date.

You’re single because you’d rather be alone on your couch than waste your precious energy on someone who peaks at 1030pm with a text saying “u up?”
..Or you've swiped through everyone in town and accidentally matched with your 3rd cousin. 🤦‍♀️

You're OVER IT. Done.

You’ve got standards. Right?
And honestly? You should.

You’re not looking for a situationship, a pen pal, or someone whose idea of vulnerability is “I don’t usually open up, but…”

👌 You want someone real.
👌 Someone who’s done the work (or at least knows what that means)
👌 Someone who makes your life feel richer, not more complicated.

But the dating apps?

It’s like shopping at a garage sale where everything’s broken, missing significant pieces and still way overpriced.

So by choice—you stay single.
Because peace > potential.
I get it.

But if you're really honest with yourself — you miss connection. Like real eye contact. Real consistency. Someone asking about your day and gives a damn.

I'm guessing you do. You just don’t want to have to light yourself on fire to find it.

Drum roll.... Enter: Date On Purpose IRL❤️‍🔥

✨ It's real humans. In meeting in real life. Talking like… actual humans. 🤯
✨ No forced flirting with wierdos.
✨ No anxiety induced speed dating or name tags with "your favourite pet name”
✨ Just a room full of emotionally available grownups who know what they want—and are actually ready for the same thing you are.

Because you’re not here to settle. You’re here to connect on purpose.

And this IRL event? This is dating without your DMs being left on "read".

Want in? 👇

After a 7-year relationship that ended in a 4-month marriage, I looked in the mirror and realized—I had no idea who the hell I was anymore.(Side note: I think I beat Kim Kardashian for shortest wedding.)🤪When the dust settled, one thing was clear:I couldn’t go back.To who I was.To what I pretended to want.To the version of me that was afraid to write her own story. So when Halloween rolled around that year, I didn’t want to play it cute.I wanted to feel strong. Capable.Like someone who could walk through fire and come out holding the map.So I dressed up as my fearless heroine—Lara Croft. Tomb Raider. ⚡️What I didn’t expect?That while holding two plastic holster guns—for the first time in what felt like forever—I actually felt like myself.🫣Not the version of me trying to be enough for everyone.🫣Not the people-pleasing, low-key-anxious, make-it-look-perfect version.But the version of me who could stand in the ruins of her old life and still choose to uncover something powerful beneath it.💥That costume cracked something open.It gave me back something I didn’t know I was allowed to feel:✨ Agency. Adventure. Joy. Power. ✨That was my moment. My inner heroine waking up. 💪And it’s the moment The Joy Tribe Co. was born—when I decided to help other women find their spark too.Because self-discovery doesn’t have to look like bath bombs and glitter affirmation cards.The real transformation?🥾 Sometimes it looks like dusting off your boots, staring your inner dragons dead in the face,and picking up the controller to your own life again. 🎮So if you’re done performing for the algorithm of life, ready to reclaim the wild, creative, magical version of you that’s been buried under a pile of “shoulds”…✨ You’re in the right place. And ohhh, your inner adventure is about to pop off. 🔥

I mean… she had a good run.By “good,” I mean chaotic, confusing, and emotionally traumatic—like a car crash you couldn’t stop watching.She was promised connection.Instead? Conversation threads that died faster than her houseplants.Matches who never messaged.And a shocking number of unsolicited d*ck pics and fish photos.She thought a spark could live in a profile prompt.She was out here building emotional intimacy with people who don’t use punctuation.Honestly? She’s had better conversations with her Uber driver.This wasn’t dating.This was app fatigue with a side of self-doubt.✨She didn’t want another pen pal.✨Another “maybe.”✨Another “let’s hang soon” that meant never.She wanted presence. Clarity. A room full of people who are *actually* ready for something more.And those apps?Weren’t built for that.And judging by Bumble’s 30% staff layoffs… they know it too. 🫣She was done outsourcing her love life to an algorithm.Because love was never meant to feel like the gamified HOT or NOT trend from 2010.✨ So she did something different.She signed up for a Authentic Dating Collective event—a real-life dating experience for emotionally available, self-aware humans who are done pretending “this is fine.”💗 Where we connect like people, not profiles.✨Where your energy matters more than your bio.😍 Where no one needs a witty opener to be seen.📍No apps. No pressure. Just real humans.Let’s date with intention again.If you’re over 35+ and ready to break up with dating apps FOR GOOD...Link in bio. You coming? First event in

Drum roll 🥁if you’ve made this far, here’s the last two: 👇👇✨I don’t have to rush the next chapter of my life (and I don’t want to).I’m allowed to take my time, to rest, to figure things out as I go. Healing isn’t a race—because let’s face it that’s what got me in trouble the first time. It’s building a relationship with myself. Brick by brick on top of a stronger foundation. ✨I have permission to STILL want love and a relationship.Even after the mess and the mistakes. I still want love. Call me hopeless romantic but wanting love doesn’t mean I’ll make the same choices or destined for it to happen again—it means I get to believe in something better, and believe I DESERVE something better. …and this time it’s on my terms.💥 You know what? So do you. 💜What’s one thing you’ve learned? I want to hear it in the comments! 😲 pssst… if you’re in the area and looking for support as you move through the process, join us at our in person event! 👉 FOLLOW ME to learn more about our community and how you can attend the event! ❤️

🥰Love languages are an important part of any intimate relationship. ⁠
⁠
🥰Yes, they're extremely important in romantic relationships but they begin with the relationship you have with yourself. ⁠
⁠
🥰It's the easiest way to give yourself love when you're feeling down and to connect back to the purest love... the love you have within you. ⁠
⁠
🥰You need to be able to fill your love cup because no one else is going to do that for you. Not even in a relationship. ⁠
⁠
🥰The importance of love languages within a romantic relationship is to deepen the connection you have with your partner, by giving love in the unique ways that matter to each partner. ⁠
⁠
🥰 BUT it's not our responsibility to fill another person's empty cup. We must learn how to do it for ourselves to give from a place of abundance rather than a place of lack and need. ⁠
⁠
🥰 The words we say to ourselves matter. They tell our story and create our reality. ⁠
⁠
🥰 Take a step back and listen to what you say to yourself every day. What does it say about you? How does it make you feel? If it's not good... then change the narrative. ⁠
⁠
🥰 Use these examples to help cultivate your self-love language and toolbox. ⁠

I thought it meant becoming smaller, shape-shifting and conforming into what I thought was a "perfect" fit for my partner.

I thought if I just gave enough, compromised enough, proved I was enough, they would love me the way I always wanted...

I mean, I grew up watching Disney movies, lived for rom-coms, and had two parents who loved each other, seemingly without effort (at least not in front of my young eyes)... so anything less or different just wasn't acceptable.

So I silenced my feelings. I held in my needs. I became the person I thought they wanted—someone easy to love. Someone who didn’t ask for too much. Someone who didn’t make things hard.

And in the process? I completely lost myself.

I became a version of me that existed for them—never for me. Literally, running after them, grasping for love. And for a long time, I convinced myself that was normal. That was "true" love.

But the truth is, I was wrong. I wish I had known sooner: Real love doesn’t require you to disappear, become smaller, or be anything but YOU.

💜It doesn’t ask you to stay silent so someone else can be comfortable.
💜It doesn’t ask you to trade your dreams, your voice, or your truth just to be “enough.”
💜And it sure as hell doesn’t ask you to shrink or become a watered-down version of yourself to be easier to hold.

Because the kind of love that lasts? The kind that’s real? It doesn’t fear your weird, or your loud laugh, or your emotional side —it welcomes it.

If you’ve been shrinking, adjusting, and forgetting yourself just to keep someone else happy—this is your reminder:

💛 You don’t have to lose yourself to be loved.
💛 You don’t have to be small to be worthy.
💛 You are allowed to take up ALL THE SPACE.

With all the chaos, fear, and noise in the world right now, it’s easy to feel lost.If you’re asking “Who TF am I now” you’re preaching to the choir 🎶 We spend so much time looking for answers outside of ourselves—scrolling, seeking validation, following someone else’s roadmap—when the truth is, the answers you’re searching for are already within you.if you never take the time to build a relationship with yourself, you’ll always feel like a stranger in your own life.So, How Do You Come Back to YOU?1️⃣ Get Quiet. The world is LOUD. Your mind is even louder. You can’t hear your intuition through all the noise. Go for a walk. Listen to music without words. Sit with yourself in stillness. Give your inner voice the space to be heard.2️⃣ Know Your YES’s and NO’s. How many times have you said yes to something that drained you? How many times have you ignored that gut feeling? Pay attention—your body knows what feels right and what doesn’t. Honour it.3️⃣ Find What Gives You Joy. Not what should make you happy. Not what society says is success or happiness. But the things that light YOU up. The activities, places, and experiences that make you feel alive again.Honest truth: If you don’t define who you are, the world will do it for you. ✋🎤And that’s why you feel disconnected and so freakin’ lost.But you don’t have to stay in the suck.💡 If you’re ready to start exploring who you are outside of all the noise - Grab my “Lost to Lit” Self-Discovery Questions.They will help you uncover EXACTLY what you need, want, and desire—so you can stop feeling like a side character in your own story.Drop “DISCOVER” in the comments or DM me and I can send you the link 🔥✨🚀 Your reinvention starts now.

Does it feel like you’ve spent so long being what everyone else needed, that you don’t even know what YOU want anymore?

If you resonate with this, I see you. I absolutely promise you’re not alone.

I lived this life for over 30 years. 30 YEARS. It wasn't until I had a huge wake up call via a 4 month marriage and divorce that truly called me to find my truth and discover who I REALLY am. Because who I was trying to be? Well, that clearly wasn't working.

So let me ask you... how much longer are you willing to wait?

How much longer are you willing to hold your breath when a HUGE exhale could be waiting on the other side?

That's why I want to make taking that first step EASY for you. Why? Because I've curated a list of 30 self-discovery questions that I WISH I HAD when I was younger (or to be honest... even a few years ago!) These questions are designed to help you slowly uncover secrets that you've been hiding from yourself for a long time.

Secrets that you have kept buried because you thought they were "too much" this or "too much that" and so on.

It's time to discover those hidden parts of you that were ALWAYS meant to be found.

That’s why I created the ‘From Lost to Lit’ journal prompts—to help you reconnect with yourself again. Click the link in my bio to grab your FREE copy.

I know the feeling because I’ve been there.

I stood in that wedding dress, surrounded by smiles, while every part of me screamed NO. I told myself it was just nerves, but deep down, I knew—I was saying yes to a life that wasn’t mine. I ignored it, smiled for the pictures, and kept moving forward. But when you don’t know yourself, it’s easy to mistake fear for truth and expectations for desire. Let me tell you, ignoring yourself comes at a cost. But when I finally decided to discover my truth?

Everything changed.

Here’s the thing: when you don’t know yourself, you don’t trust yourself. You mistake fear for truth. Expectations for desire. And before you know it, you're speeding down a road you're not meant to be driving on. A life that isn't meant to be yours.

If you feel lost right now, you’re not alone. But you don't have to continue to live in that story. You have a choice in what happens next on your adventure.

🍳How do you like your eggs? A simple question, yet so hard for people to answer.

🍳I remember when I watched "The Runaway Bride" the one where she ran from every wedding she ever had. Specifically, she always chose the same egg style as each of her partners. When it came down to it - she had no idea WHAT TYPE OF EGG SHE LIKED. Only until she sat herself down and tried every variation of egg known to man to find her favourite... it was eggs benny.

🍳I used to be one like her, I had no idea how I liked my eggs. I would always choose the same as my partner. I always just liked what they liked - I didn't want to seem different because maybe if I was- they wouldn't like me the same way.

🍳 Oh boy. Not knowing how I liked my eggs or how I liked anything for that matter, signaled I didn't know myself at all. I hadn't for basically, 31 years.

🍳The issue is - If you don't know what you like? How do you know who you are and what you want out of life?

🍳PS. My favorite eggs are soft-poached.

Ditch the damsel in distress, ignite fierce self-love, and have the confidence to become the heroine of your own love story.

My coaching approach is simple. When you commit to consistently taking care of your body, mind, and soul with compassion - finding love is gets a whole lot easier.

After my divorce, I was forced to feel my raw feelings of pain, anxiety, identity loss, and surrender to the uncertainty of life. This undoubtedly was and is the biggest, most terrifying risk I’ve ever taken. Unapologetically, let go of ideas, thoughts, and people I held so closely to truly move forward. The choices weren’t easy and in fact, most times felt pretty fu***ng impossible. The struggle was real and pain was imminent but I made a choice to show up for myself and keep moving through my journey. I’m grateful I did.

That's great, Erin but how did you get your s**t together?

Holding your s**t together is tough and adding the stress of consistency is even tougher.
