Lucy was in her 40s and had come out after a long marriage to a man. Her first relationship with a woman was passionate, but painful. Although Lucy doubted there was really someone out there for her, especially because she had two teenagers at home, she took the Roadmap anyway -- and it helped her create a vision of her ideal partner, and gain the confidence to reach out to women online. 

Within a few months of finishing the Roadmap, Lucy met a woman who was truly a perfect match for her vision. Not only does her new partner love her kids, but Lucy hates to cook -- and, guess what, her partner is a chef! It has been four years now, and Lucy says: 

"Before taking your course, there were things I didn't know I needed. I was one of those women over 40 that wondered if finding the right partner was even possible at this age. Now I’m the happiest I’ve ever been in my life!"

Elizabeth was in her 50s, and gun-shy about relationships. She tended to be attracted to women who were emotionally unsafe for her, and she didn't want that kind of drama and unhappiness ever again.  

Through the Roadmap and 1:1 coaching, Elizabeth gained the strength and clarity to turn away from several Ms. Wrongs. Then, when she met Jane at a party, something was different. There was chemistry and she could actually see that Jane was good for her, too. 

The Roadmap also helped Elizabeth and Jane navigate some early bumps in their relationship. Now, after five years, Elizabeth says,

"I had done a lot of personal growth work before, but Conscious Girlfriend was the missing piece that helped me put it all together." 

Jeanette was in her late 60s, and had been single for a very long time. She was nervous about dating, didn't feel comfortable dating online, yet knew she didn't want to be alone forever, either. She felt stuck.

The Roadmap class helped her stop feeling ashamed of being single, heal some pain from her last relationship, and eventually create an online profile and start meeting women. 

There were some awkward experiences, but the Roadmap helped Jeanette keep at it. She dated for about a year before meeting Dena, and they clicked. Now Jeanette credits the Roadmap with helping her have the confidence to seek, find, and actually be ready for new love, as well as having the skills to navigate challenges when they come up. Her words of wisdom for others?

"It's really not too late!"

Tiffany was in her 20s, and very shy.  Having grown up in a religious family, she had a lot of trouble accepting her sexuality. But the Roadmap class helped her build a community of loving, accepting lesbian and queer women friends and mentors. After taking the class, Tiffany also found a girlfriend! Although they are no longer together, Tiffany now feels much more hopeful about the future. She says: 

“When I started the class, I was so isolated and couldn’t imagine how I could ever live a real life as the person I am... Now I have friends, I've had a girlfriend, and I have so much more self-acceptance. I honestly think the Roadmap saved my life.”
