The Frontcourt Female

By Jillian Marie

I’m your coach Jillian. The game of your life was built for you to win in the end - but winning certainly doesn't look the way you expected.
Step up with me to the frontcourt, where self-responsibility runs the game.
Here we examine ways to take possession of our dating experience and create lasting change.
When our internal conditions are managed- we reclaim the fun we should be having. On this court, dating and relating is not difficult, boring, nor out of our control. Let's play!
