Is Valentine's Day worth the hype? This week, Matchmaker Maria is joined by dating coach and relationship expert Erika Ettin to dive into the origins and modern-day debates surrounding this love-it-or-leave-it holiday.

This week on Ask a Matchmaker, Matchmaker Maria is joined by Erika Ettin, a renowned dating coach who specializes in navigating the world of online dating. Together, they break down essential advice for making meaningful connections in 2025. Erika shares creative tips on rethinking your dating profile title—why calling yourself an "RN" or "hospitality professional" might spark more interest than the traditional job title approach. They also dive into the emerging trend of value-driven dating. But what does "values" actually mean in dating, and how does it stack up against chemistry? Erika and Maria explain why both are essential and why giving people a chance on the first (and even second) date is worth it. Finally, they tackle the coffee date debate. While some claim it's a low-effort option, Maria and Erika challenge that idea, emphasizing the thoughtful planning required to pick a great spot with the right vibe. Plus, a fancy restaurant isn't automatically a "high-effort" date—effort comes from thoughtfulness, not price tags. Tune in for insightful, practical advice on modern dating and making every connection count! Maria has  a book coming out! click here to preorder!!

Erika Ettin gives people A Little Nudge up in the dating world What does online dating have to do with life stories? A lot. If you've ever looked at a dating site, you've seen a user profile, that miniature snapshot, in words and pictures, of a person in search of a partner. And just like with life stories, some people need help writing them. Erika recognized this need years ago when friends started asking for her help with their own profiles. She got so good at it that she left her job in the finance industry and created A Little Nudge, a service that caters to singles ready to jump into the online dating pool but not sure they know how to swim. Erika assists her clients through profile writing, picture selection, coaching, and date planning. In this episode, we talk about what it looks like to write a client's dating profile and even the messages they send to potential dates. Listen as we discuss: Erika's biggest demographic— Women over 50 (a typically common demographic, incidentally, for life story clients) turning what you love to do into a viable business the process of creating a client's online dating profile the narrow line between coaching and therapy serving a population of people who are single, but don't want to be managing clients' expectations the gratification of working with someone fresh out of a long-term relationship who is just getting to know herself again   A few questions life story writers can borrow from Erika I'm always looking for interesting, conversation-stimulating questions to ask my storytellers. Here are a few that will elicit more playful responses: What's something about you that your friends would make fun of? Do you have any stupid human tricks (i.e. something you wouldn't put on a resume!)? Tell on yourself! What's a funny or awkward story about you that makes you shake your head and say, "Yep, that's me!"   What it takes to be a good dating profile writer-for-hire You have to be an excellent writer. You have to be intuitive about people. You have to be a good businessperson and salesperson.   Links, contacts, and stuff: A Little Nudge Erika's book, Love at First Site The New York Times article featuring Erika and her business Listen to Erika's podcast, So, We Met Online...

Rita Goodroe & Erika Ettin share their wisdom on dating especially regarding online dating profile tips that help you stand out in the dating world. In 2011, Rita left her life as a business attorney (which she led for over 10 years) and became a dating & relationship coach. Her first year in business, she was asked to tour as an expert panelist and speaker, serve as an expert for The Washington Post and was a finalist for Best Dating Coach in the iDate 2014 Awards. She began coaching entrepreneurs on starting and building their businesses and has since founded the Women's Business Garden, a global community of women who are creating new futures for themselves, their communities and the world through entrepreneurship. The mission of Women's Business Garden is to catalyze women's entrepreneurship and sustainable business growth and success through powerful education, mentorship and community.

Her services include: writing a unique profile to get you noticed, helping to choose your best profile pictures, writing one-of-a-kind emails to get someone's attention, and planning dates. After working in the finance industry for over seven years (and doing years of online dating herself), Erika realized that her true calling was personal marketing, or helping people put their best foot forward online. A Little Nudge has been featured in The Washington Post, NPR, Good Day Philadelphia, News Channel 8, and Ask Men, Philly.com, and JDate. She currently writes a syndicated dating column for the Chicago Tribune. Her podcast, So We Met Online, shows a hilarious take on the current state of the date.

Got dating advice? We do! Well, actually, scratch that: Erika Ettin does. Before the advent of Tinder, Ettin, a long-time finance consultant, decided to go rogue and start her own consulting business -- but of the online dating variety. So in 2011, she launched her D.C.-based company A Little Nudge armed with a few spreadsheets and a heaping of personal experience. We chat with Ettin about how she helps the District's residents out with their online dating needs, what does and doesn't work on profiles, and her own relationship history. Sorry our interview made you late for a first date, Erika! Plus: Anna learns why her OKCupid dating profile needs some improvement.

Listen to our chat to hear Erika share: Her supporting role in an online dater's life Why it’s so challenging to write your own online dating profile  Why she created A Little Nudge The difference between a high-end matchmaker and an online dating coach How she helps her clients develop a fuller life beyond dating The link between dating advice and self-image Why people have such a hard time finding the right partner How to get started with online dating (when you have no experience) Recommended online dating websites Unrealistic expectations and how they can damage a potential relationship The importance of dating with a new mindset and fresh perspective The importance of being NATO: Not Attached to Outcome How she ghostwrites responses for some of her clients  Why women shouldn't offer to pay for dinner Tips for staying safe Going with your gut and doing what you feel comfortable with The importance of auditing your profile  The pitfalls of lying on your online profile Quotes from Erika: “It’s all about marketing yourself!" "For whatever reason, people think when it comes to marketing themselves, they don’t have to put the time in, they don’t have to put the energy in. But that’s exactly the opposite of what you should do, You’re not marketing a product, you’re not marketing a service, you’re marketing YOU."   “I call myself ‘educated-impulsive,' because I’m fairly impulsive but I’ve done the research first. But, once I’m ready, I jump.” "Don’t use online dating as a band-aid, ego-boost, or something to fill the void. Do it only when you’re ready, because it’s frustrating for the other person if they like you and you’re just not emotionally there yet." “Don’t think you’re the lucky one who is going to bump into someone at the airport and then it’s love at first sight and you walk off into the sunset. That happens so infrequently! Just like finding a new job, finding a partner is hard work and it should be because it’s really important.” "I tell people to go on first dates with no expectations - not positive, not negative, just see what it is to meet a new person.” “It does take work. You know, Rome wasn’t built in a day. Don’t compare yourself to anyone because you don’t know your friend’s standards. You don’t know what goes on behind closed doors. Just worry about yourself.” Contact Erika: Website: www.alittlenudge.com where you can find her video series, 90-Days to Dating Success Facebook: A Little Nudge Twitter: @ALittleNudge  Linkedin: Erika Ettin   Contact Lisa: Lisa@EverBetterU.com
