    Meet me:
    Imani Ifedi

    my philosophy -
    Before you get the right answers, you need to ask the right questions

    Hey there! I’m Imani, and I help overthinkers go from feeling frustrated and confused in their love lives to making better, authentic choices with ease and clarity. The goal is to avoid time-wasting, energy-sucking dating and relationships and finally attract genuine, fulfilling love. 

    Dating doesn’t work well when you’re constantly striving to do or say the “right” thing by some external standard, unevaluated conditioning, or arbitrary construct. It also doesn’t work well when you’re looking for a hyper-specific type of person and rejecting everyone at the first “ick,” nor if you try to settle for less than you deserve or truly desire. 

    If you head in any of these directions, you’ll end up sabotaging your chances of finding and fostering a genuine match. 

    Instead, I emphasize deeply understanding your true personal principles; challenging restrictive, outdated, and limiting beliefs about yourself and relationships; trying a lot less to be anything that you’re not; and making aligned decisions with confidence and ease – all through the power of asking meaningful, effective questions to yourself and others. 

    By doing so, you can overcome overthinking, reshape undesirable habits, and create a sincere and fulfilling love life. 

    I integrate principles from my educational background (Philosophy, Ethics, Policy), REBT-based mindset strategies, mindfulness practices, and pivotal lessons from my own dating experiences and current married life to provide a holistic, values-focused approach.

    My focus is on whole-hearted individuals who tend to overthink every move and/or lose themselves in (typically crappy) relationships. 

    You have the answers within you. I’m just here to help you uncover them.

    Does this sound like you?

    You feel like you “suck at dating” and want to learn how to make better, more authentic, and more aligned choices to get better dating and relationship outcomes.

    You don’t trust yourself when it comes to making sound decisions, looking for the right partner, enforcing your boundaries, asking for what you want, or showing your whole self.

    You tend to get tied up in wishy-washy situation-ships and don’t know how to navigate them with confidence and clarity.

    You tend to lose yourself in dating/relationships and want your power back once and for all.
