In this episode, I am meeting Abi Blears. We are discussing how she managed to change her career successfully, from professional actress to massage therapist and finally dating coach, matchmaker and online dating specialist.
Abi's career change happened after she started questioning if acting was the right career for her. At the same time, her mum fell ill and soon passed away. Losing her main cheerleader and the person that was inspiring her to be an actress made it clear that acting was not for her anymore.
One night, while watching the UK dating programme "First dates" she started to think if "matchmaking" could have been an actual profession and realised that it would have felt amazing to help people find love.
Abi is one of the few UK based dating coaches who are certified in science-based coaching with the Matchmaking Institute NYC. She uses research-based strategies to help people to prepare themselves for long-term monogamous commitments and provide bespoke coaching tailored to her client’s individual needs.
