Dating From the Inside Out
Modern dating isn’t broken—you’re just navigating it without a map.This 8-week virtual group workshop is for anyone trying to date in the world of apps, situationships, and mixed signals while also trying to stay grounded, get clear on what they actually want, and stop losing themselves in the process.
Group Workshop
8 Virtual Session
Investment: $250
Starting March 12
Thursdays, 7-9 PM
If dating leaves you feeling exhausted, confused, fed up, or like you’re doing it wrong, you’re not alone.
If this sounds familiar, it can leave you feeling:
Exhausted and discouraged
Questioning your own judgment
Wondering if you're the problem
Stuck cycling between hope and burnout
Most dating distress isn’t because you’re doing something wrong or not trying hard enough. It’s what happens when you don’t have a clear internal compass, you keep repeating patterns you were never taught to notice, and modern dating prioritizes speed over real connection.
The Connection Blueprint offers a different way.
Modern dating didn't break because people got worse. It shifted because the systems around dating changed faster than most of us learned how to navigate them.That leaves people:
Strategizing without really understanding themselves
Gaining insight without changing how they show up
"Knowing better" but still feeling stuck
The Connection Blueprint takes a different approach. It's a way of understanding how your values, your patterns and the realities of modern dating interact in real time.And when those pieces start to make sense together, dating can shift from chaos to choice.
These pillars are not meant to be done in a straight line, life doesn't work like that. They work all together. They overlap and weave into each other as dating unfolds. Helping you to build confidence, self-awareness, and deeper insight along the way.
Orientation, Values & Desire
"Why am I dating, and what am I actually oriented toward?"
Get clear on what actually matters to you, beyond pressure, fear, or urgency. Learn to separate what you genuinely want from what you think you’re supposed to want, and shift from reactive dating to intentional choice.
Name your values without relying on 'shoulds.'
Learn the difference between real desire and fear-based urgency
Get curious about what actually excites you and feels meaningful
Patterns, Perception & Awareness
"What are the reasons behind these dating patterns I keep repeating"
Learn how you actually show up in connection. Understand your patterns, triggers, and protective habits with curiosity rather than self blame.
Identify relational patterns and what you're trying to protect
Learn the difference between attraction and activation
Reality check stories, projections, and fantasies as they arise
Aligned Action in the Real World
"How does this all work into how I actually date?"
Bring what you know into real life dating. Learn how to navigate apps, pacing, uncertainty, and too many options while staying grounded and aligned.
Translate values into real behavior
Align communication, pacing and boundaries
Repair quickly when misalignment occurs
Over 8 weeks, we’ll build a way of approaching dating that actually works with how people form connection, not against it.We’ll start by slowing things down and getting clear on why you’re dating in the first place and what actually matters to you beyond pressure, fear, or urgency. You’ll begin to separate what you genuinely want from what you’ve absorbed along the way, and shift from reacting in dating to making choices that feel intentional.From there, we’ll look at how you tend to show up once connection starts. You’ll start to recognize your patterns, understand the difference between attraction and activation, and make sense of the protective habits that may have helped you cope in the past but now keep you stuck.Finally, we’ll focus on how to bring all of this into real dating situations. That means navigating apps, pacing, uncertainty, and mixed signals while staying grounded in what matters to you, and learning how to course-correct more quickly when things drift off track.This workshop offers space for reflection, optional group conversation, and guidance for figuring out what you actually want, including the very real option of choosing not to date at all.By the end of 8 weeks, the goal isn’t to be “better at dating.” It’s to feel clearer, steadier, and more trusting of yourself in connection.
This isn’t about fixing your profile.It’s not about dating scripts, timelines, or doing things “the right way.”And it’s not about pushing you into a relationship before you’re ready.This is about understanding how you relate so you can date with clarity instead of self-doubt.It’s about slowing down enough for your dating choices to feel steadier and more self directed.There’s no pressure here to perform, impress, or optimize. The focus is on awareness before action, curiosity over urgency, and staying connected to yourself while navigating connection with others.
The Connection Blueprint offers a grounded way to make sense of your dating experiences without reducing you to a type or a set of rules. It gives you language for what’s happening internally and support for making choices that feel aligned with your values.By the end of 8 weeks, you’ll have something you can return to again and again. Not a list of dating tactics, but a clearer understanding of yourself in connection and how you want to move forward.
You don’t need to be actively dating to participate. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need a willingness to look honestly at how you show up and what you want to do differently.

Hi, I'm Jessica Furtado, LCSW
Gennew, Inc.
As a therapist working with both couples and individuals, I started noticing the same conflicts and patterns showing up again and again. I created The Connection Blueprint after seeing these struggles repeat not only in my clinical work, but in my own dating experiences as well.The goal was never to teach people how to “do dating right,” but to offer a grounded way of understanding the why behind wanting connection — and the what behind the patterns that may be getting in the way.The focus is on staying anchored in yourself while building relationships that actually align with what you want.

Do I need to be actively dating to join?
No. You don’t need to be actively dating to start. Some people join while dating, others join to reset patterns, gain clarity, or prepare before putting themselves back out there. The work meets you where you are.
What if I miss a session?
Hey, life happens. It's ok if you need to miss one. Reach out if you want to do a review or to get access to the materials from the session you missed. You can jump back in at any time.
Do you accept insurance?
Coverage varies by provider and plan, and participants are encouraged to contact our office at (857) 293-5020-with questions about eligibility.
Will this help me find a relationship?
There’s no promise of a relationship outcome. What it will help with is clarity, regulation, self-trust, and decision-making. If and when you date, you do it with intention instead of repeating the same cycles.
What about gender/sexuality/relationship style?
This space is inclusive of all genders, sexual orientations, and relationship styles. The work focuses on patterns, values, attachment, and self-leadership—not prescribing one “right” way to date or relate.
