Have you ever sat across from someone on a first date and wondered, "Why does this feel so awkward? Why isn't there any chemistry?" Are you stuck in your head, anxious about what to say and worried if you're coming across as interesting or fun? In Episode 423 of The Charisma Quotient, "ICYMI: Creating Conversation and Chemistry: Coaching with Kimmy" Kimmy dives deep into these common dating dilemmas and explores how you can take control of your energy, spark chemistry, and break free from repetitive, boring conversations.
In this episode, welcomes Kay, who's struggled to move past dry, fact-based interactions on dating apps and in person. Together, they unpack what keeps conversation stuck at surface level, why being "in your head" creates barriers, and how shifting from reactive to proactive – bringing emotional context and playfulness – can transform your dating experience. Kimmy coaches Kay to open up, share feelings, and weave personal stories into her chats, making connections more lively and authentic. You'll walk away with actionable strategies for loosening up and injecting true connection into any date, even if you think your interests are a little offbeat!
