Gain self-confidence and dating confidence by knowing that you’re presenting yourself exactly the way you want to be perceived.

Mariko is a coach, businesswoman, thought leader, and lightworker. She coaches clients to do whatever it is they truly love whilst thriving financially; by guiding them lovingly and playfully in their exploration, between the material world and the spiritual world; the light and the dark; vanilla and non-vanilla.

We cover topics like:

- 2:18 sexual consent in online dating
- 9:24 why is confidence attractive
- 13:01 why shadow work is important
- 19:54 first message tips for dating app
- 33:21 what to do when ghosted in dating

A common fear in dating is that your actions or messages will be misinterpreted, and that you won’t be seen for who you truly are. Many guys worry about being labeled as the "creepy guy," the “nice guy,” or other stereotypes that don't represent who you truly are.

Uncertainty can kill the mood. It's also a sign of lacking confidence in yourself and how you come across to others. When you show up as your authentic self, there’s no uncertainty or confusion: you feel confident in who you are and understand how you'll be perceived.

Becoming confident in who you are can help you overcome stressors not just in dating, but in other relationships as well, like work or family. Shadow work, a transformative self-exploration technique, delves into unraveling the stories we create in our minds that make situations seem heavier than they should be. Often, these stories revolve around untrue narratives.

Shadow work helps you tackle the parts of yourself that are often tucked away in the dark. When you’ve done the work to foster self-awareness, confidence, and the ability to navigate emotional terrain, dating can be a fun and fulfilling experience.

Here's Mariko’s best online dating tip for Hinge users: genuine interest trumps self-promotion. Your opening line should reflect that you've taken the time to read their profile.
