“This program changed my approach to love, and it can change yours too” Before joining this program, I struggled with getting clear on what I truly wanted in a partner, recognizing my own self-worth, and setting boundaries with men who weren’t serious. I often found myself unsure of how to respond to unacceptable behavior, which questions to ask early on, and how to confidently walk away when needed. Through this program, I gained clarity, built confidence, and learned how to approach relationships with intention. The deep work, insightful podcasts, and structured guidance completely transformed my mindset. I now know what I want, how to ask the right questions, and when to move on from a situation that doesn’t serve me. Beyond relationships, this program helped me communicate my thoughts, desires, and boundaries in all areas of my life. I now recommend it to anyone truly ready to do the work because it WILL change the way you date—and the way you see yourself.

This program helped me become intentional about love—and it can do the same for you. Before joining this program, I wasn’t actively seeking a partner—I was just hoping the right person would come along. Through this experience, I learned how to intentionally invest in attracting the right relationship instead of waiting for it to happen. One of my biggest breakthroughs was when Maria helped me refine my dating profile to attract the kind of person I truly desire. That moment gave me so much clarity! I now understand what I need in a relationship, what a man needs, and how to set healthy boundaries. I’ve gained confidence, clarity, and practical tools that will serve me in both dating and life. Beyond relationships, this program helped me improve my self-worth, time management, and even my business growth. The weekly support and deep conversations made all the difference. I highly recommend this program to anyone who is serious about finding love and willing to do the work. If you’re unsure, I’d say—just meet with Maria. You’ll know if this is the right next step for you!

Before joining Maria’s program, I struggled to attract the right type of partner and often overlooked red flags. This program completely changed my approach to dating by helping me refine my profile to attract men who are truly ready for commitment. I also gained a much clearer understanding of behaviors and patterns to watch out for. One of the biggest breakthroughs for me was the podcast Maria shared in Week 1—it was eye-opening and changed the way I view stress and relationships. It was so good I shared it with many people I care deeply about. Beyond that, the modules on confidence and femininity helped me feel more comfortable in my own skin, which has completely shifted how I show up in dating. I now focus on enjoying the moment rather than stressing about the outcome, and that has been a game changer! Maria provided incredible support, always available to help me think through challenges constructively. I’ve also realized that I deserve love exactly as I am—without needing to be "perfect" first. I would absolutely recommend this program! In just a few weeks, my mindset around dating and relationships has completely transformed. Just before ending the program I found a quality partner that is in alignment with my needs and desires and we are further evaluating each other and our long-term compatibility. If you're hesitant, I’d say give yourself the gift of a new perspective—you won’t regret it! -Stephanie

After 32 years of marriage to my high school sweetheart, I found myself completely new to modern dating. Through this program, I experienced profound breakthroughs in understanding my worth and values. I learned how to communicate my needs confidently and identify compatibility quickly. A major breakthrough came when I realized my 'friends with benefits' situation, which I'd justified as a temporary placeholder, was actually preventing me from finding true connection. The program helped me see how settling for less was blocking my path to more. What sets this program apart is its practical, hands-on approach. Each week, I could implement what I learned and then discuss my real-world experiences, challenges, and victories. The personalized insights, affirmations, and guidance I received were truly invaluable - it wasn't just theory, but real transformation in action. I went from feeling lost to knowing exactly what I want and how to find it. Most importantly, I learned that someone can be great but not great for me - a realization that changed everything. This program isn't just about dating techniques; it's about personal growth and self-discovery. While it requires commitment to change, the benefits begin from week one. I've already recommended it to several friends because it works - if you're ready to do the work. -Mandy

I have to say it was one of the best initial experiences of the last 12 years! What a wonderful course this is! I have been single for 12 years since my divorce and was feeling frustrated about the experience and my lack of success in finding an amazing partner that was committed to the same things I am! I felt confident in my capabilities - so why couldn’t I be successful here? Maria is a perfect teacher and mentor and it’s incredible how information and self reflection given that new information can shift everything! Last weekend, at Maria’s encouragement I am trying new things, new places, etc. Quite organically, I ended up meeting a man of the higher caliber that I have often said doesn’t exist in this town! 😂. We had an interesting conversation about our lives, our families and our goals for this year. In the context of my armed-with-information freshly opened eyes to a more intelligent, confident process of meeting men, I have to say it was one of the best initial experiences of the last 12 years! Amazing shift! The truth is, he may or may not be a right person for me - but the freedom and empowerment I feel to now understand the process and exercise educated discernment takes the stress away! It leaves both of us free to actually enjoy each other’s company and have fun! I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this course to anyone that wants to get off the unconscious path of continuing to attract and date the wrong people. Maria is a loving, compassionate angel that can walk you to a place of empowerment, freedom and joy in the process… and I believe that is the energetic place where magic is possible. -Lori

A major breakthrough was identifying and overcoming my scarcity mindset. Before this program, I struggled with recognizing my values and setting boundaries. The most impactful lesson was learning about 'one more time' - a mindset that's helped me persevere not just in dating, but in all areas of my life.

The comprehensive support, including podcasts and practical activities, helped me develop a clearer vision of my worth and what I bring to the table. Since completing the program, I've noticed a significant change in who I'm attracting and how I communicate my needs. For anyone hesitant about joining - I was completely lost before, but now I have the clarity and confidence to pursue the relationship I deserve. Key Transformations:

• From unclear boundaries to defined values
• From scarcity mindset to abundance thinking
• From settling to empowered choosing
• From lost to clear direction

After a 40+ year marriage, I wanted to find a partner who shared my mindset and values. Despite my health issues, I wasn't sure I could find someone understanding and loving. With Maria's coaching, I joined Upward and amazingly met Rick within days. Our relationship is flourishing – we spend several days together weekly despite living 160 miles apart, and we're discussing long-term commitment and marriage. I never thought I'd find someone who could love me and share my values for God. Maria's coaching gave me tools to be more direct and honest in relationships. The daily journaling, affirmations, and creating a clear vision of my ideal partner have helped tremendously. As a coach myself, I specifically chose Maria because I didn't know her, allowing me to be truly vulnerable. The coaching program has boosted my confidence immensely – I wouldn't have tried online dating without it. Maria adapts the program to individual needs, and I'm grateful for her guidance. She's a well-versed coach who I highly recommend. -Terri

The non-judgmental advice and questions for clarification made it easier to speak openly

Maria is very professional and considerate!

My overall experience has been really good. It’s been challenging and I’ve gone through a wide range of emotions. I’m learning a lot about myself and I enjoy the conversations. I like that it’s faith based also. I appreciate all the helpful resources and words of encouragement. I have felt comfortable and safe sharing my feelings. I’ve felt like the conversations have been honest. I started off wanting to improve and heal my marriage....and realized that I had a lot of personal work to do on myself beforehand. By doing the work on myself, I’ve discovered the root cause of the majority of my marital concerns. Maria is very professional and considerate! I rate her 10/10” -Dr. Erin Syers Nyarko

I have thoroughly enjoyed the program and would recommend it to anyone

Maria is extremely personable and I can relate to her easily. She teaches from experience and I like that she asks us to do activities that she uses in her own life. I have not asked a question or asked for a scenario that Maria doesn’t have some kind of knowledge for. The modules Maria has put together for her program are extremely helpful. I have thoroughly enjoyed the program and would recommend it to anyone.- Angie Taylor
