Kelly GagalisOnline Dating Safety Expert and Dating CoachI have been a dating coach for over 15 years. A few years ago I realised that my clients don't have the same horror stories as other people I talk to do because I bake safety into their dating training. A year ago in the same 24 hour period I heard from two friends that their children had just experienced horrific sexual assault... gang rape on a young gay man naively picking up someone for a 1st date on tinder and the rape of my friend's daughter hosting a dinner on a second date while my friend was in the house. In both of these instances when I heard the circumstances I KNEW that these horrible assaults could have been prevented if these young people had only had the skills and tools I teach to date safely online.From there I created Swipe Safely, the first course aimed at increasing internet dating safety. It is now my mission to make people safer dating online, shifting them from prey behavior to confident deterrance.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
