Most people don’t realise they’re choosing projects instead of partners. In this video, I explain why caring, high-functioning people so often end up rescuing others in relationships — and how to stop repeating that pattern. You’ll learn how my Lifelong Capacities Map helps identify the emotional skills needed for healthy love, how to spot red flags early, and how to use my “Date Debrief Checklist” to know if you’re meeting a true partner or taking on a project. I also share a short guided “Dating Compass Reset” practice to help you stay centred, clear, and connected to your own vitality.Dr Tony Weston is an award-winning BACP Senior Accredited Counsellor, Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor; Executive Coach, and Organisational Consultant.Books by Dr Tony Weston“Transform Your Life: The Ultimate Guide to Self Mastery: The Lifelong Capacities Map for Thriving, Healing, and Human Development”Available on Amazon (Hard Cover, Soft Cover, Kindle Edition):https://amzn.eu/d/eDeLeUd“I’ve Been Triggered: A Guide to Understanding and Managing Triggered States”Download the Kindle Edition:https://amzn.to/426rIC5Schedule an appointment:To schedule an Executive Coaching or Psychotherapy session with Dr Tony Weston:https://calendly.com/drtonyweston/new-meetingContact: Tony@drtonyweston.comDownload your free worksheet at: https://drtonyweston.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Dating_Projects_Worksheet.docxFollow Dr. Tony Weston:• Website: https://drtonyweston.com• YouTube: https://youtube.com/@DrTonyWeston• TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dr.tony.weston• Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtonyweston• LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/dr-tony-weston-556375340“Please note: All content on this channel, including videos and materials, is protected by copyright and owned by Dr. Tony Weston.
