Love Notes
Because being single doesn't mean you have to feel alone.

What’s on Megan’s Mind?
We love it when things happen in a predictable order. Or at least, I do. As a five year-old, I expressly asked my parents to throw me a surprise party (the idea sounded fun) only to hide under a car when my relatives actually showed up to gently yell “Surprise!” at me from...

Noise
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
I once went on a silent retreat, which is an odd thing for a Pentecostal to do. I was 6 months pregnant with my first child, and my best friend from college had become (I kid you not) a cloistered nun at a monastery in rural Kentucky. She was five years into her time there...

Date Badly
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
I have a hard time making mistakes. I make plenty of them, but I struggle to accept that about myself, and have lived my life taking care to make as few as possible. I believe that avoiding mistakes has actually harmed me more than it has helped me, and as an adult, I wish...

How to Create "Chemistry"
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
Sometimes people ask me if I know that a couple I’ve matched will be a good fit for the long-term just from what I see in their first meeting. No, I’m not a psychic– there are way too many contingencies to be worked out in a relationship to know from the start that it’s go...

Burnout
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
This is a little vulnerable, but I did make this newsletter to keep everyone in the loop about what is going on at Synchrony, so here’s me being as honest as I can be.Â
I’ve been feeling burned out.Â
Not burned out on matchmaking, and certainly not on Synchrony work. As I’...

Puttin' Up for Winter
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
It feels like Satan’s armpit in North Central Florida right now, but all of the stores are coming out with pumpkin-scented whatnots and I am already craving fall. There’s something about the shift to cooler weather that feels cozy and delightful to me, and maybe it’s just ...

5 Appearance Tips
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
I know I generally use this newsletter to wax eloquent on some kind of weighty, substantial topic, but I’ll be honest with you guys–I’m writing this at 11:58, approximately nine hours before it’s supposed to hit your inbox, and I was supposed to be asleep half an hour ago....

The Plank in Your Eye
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
Ladies–you are also watching porn.Â
Some of you just clutched your chest like a Southern Baptist grandma reading the obituaries, but I need you to stay with me.
But Megan! you exclaim, I have never once logged on to one of those awful sites! Or looked at a dirty magazine! ...

Dreams
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
I’ve been heads down, focusing on new consultations lately (which has been DELIGHTFUL! Welcome to all of our new clients!) and in times when I’m feeling stressed and a bit overworked, nothing feels better to me than visioning about the big picture. I am a person who is mot...

Date Your "Siblings"
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
If there is a single person of the opposite gender in your church who is the right age for you, who is not related to you, and who does not repulse you, please take the next 5 minutes and reconsider whether or not they could be a dating prospect. I’ll wait.Â
Back? Great. L...

What’s on Megan’s Mind?
We’ve re-opened the matchmaking pipeline to ladies, which has been so exciting! As I’m writing this (a mere 3 days into the sale) we’ve already had about 23 ladies register. I can’t wait to meet all of you!
As I’m gearing up for another season of intake, I’m remembering an...

Love People, Use Things
What’s on Megan’s Mind?
For a while, I got into the podcasting duo Joshua Fields Millburn and Ryan Nicodemus, who cohost The Minimalists podcast and who released a compelling documentary called Minimalism in 2019. They’re not Christians, and you should probably listen to their material sparingly,...
