I first became aware of Duana Welch in April of 2016 through her first book. Her coaching inspired me to get over my personal hang-ups and pursue a serious relationship intentionally. After 31 years single, I met someone using an online app, and was married six months later. Next month, my wife and I will be celebrating our five-year anniversary. I owe my marriage, my two children, and my life as I know it to Duana’s teaching and mentorship. I cannot overstate its importance in my life.
Jeremy (30s)
I reached out to Duana after heartbreak. After working with her, I was able to identify “desired and must have traits” for a partner and, she drafted a dating profile for me that was fun, informative and, resulted in responses that were meaningful and had great potential. She taught me how to weed out matches that weren’t a fit [ no matter how handsome !]. I’m still a work in progress, however I have never felt so confident in going through the dating process. Having Duana in my corner makes me know that I will be successful in my search.
Patricia (60s)
Time and time again, I thank Dr. Welch for helping me find my one true love whom I’ve been happily married to for five years. After being burned and realizing that my own trials and errors weren’t getting me anywhere, I took to heart what Dr. Duana Welch has uncovered about the dating game—through scientific, grounded research. I find her compassion, guidance and due diligence in scientific research on courtship behavior the most trustworthy in the world. If you are tired of winging it, work with her and do better than ever!
James (40s)
I was lost before I came across Duana’s work. I was dating but very lonely as I kept finding myself in unfulfilling relationships, wondering if I was even valuable and where the “good” men were since they seemed so hard to find. Turned out I just needed help with the process. I’ve just celebrated 5 years of marriage with the love of my life thanks to her. I highly recommend working with her, especially because her advice is science-based and solid. It will feel like having a BFF in your corner.
Hannah (40s)
I’m so thankful to Duana for helping me meet and marry my mate! Her words of wisdom still hold true today, 16 years since we took our wedding vows. With her wise counsel and science-based advice, it all happened so fast! I met my man at age 41, was engaged within 7 months, purchased a new home together, married, became pregnant, and delivered a healthy baby girl all by age 42. After feeling like it might not ever happen for me, and truly because of her sage advice, I found what I was looking for – love, companionship, and a life partner! And now I share her wisdom with our beautiful teenaged daughter!
Jill (40s)
After a string of bad relationships, I realized that if I wanted to stop spinning my wheels and find a lasting relationship, then something needed to change.
I followed every step in Duana’s process. It took less than a year before I met the man of my dreams. We got married after about a year of serious dating, and then one year and two days after our first wedding anniversary, we welcomed a baby girl into our lives. Duana’s advice didn’t just help me find a person to be with. She taught me how to find someone who could be an equal partner in creating a life together.
-Amy (30s)
By the time my marriage of 15 years finally crumbled, I had been party to so many years of emotional manipulation that when I was ready to date again I wasn’t sure I could trust my own judgement. Dr. Duana acted as my “Mirror of Truth” as well as a trusted and wise “big sister” whose agenda was nothing but helping me to attain my best life together with true, deep love, founded in the best available science. And she was right! When my now-husband and I went on our first date, I knew what was must-have, and was able to relax and let go of any mistrust I may otherwise have had of whether we could make a great pair. And we have! We’re now in our 10th year together - 8 of which we’ve spent married. We’ve weathered step-parenting and many other challenges (and joys!). I’ve leaned on him and he’s leaned on me. …And I still think he’s smokin’ hot.
A Happy Client (40s)
Duana has been absolutely instrumental in helping me with my relationship. Her advice and counsel are always sound, and produces positive results in my life. I won’t hesitate to continue working with her, and would suggest anyone who is in need of wisdom in this area of their life to seek her out and take her words to heart.
Nate (30s)
I’ve been happily married to my dream man for over a year, and honestly couldn’t be happier. I, however, cannot take full credit for these amazing life changes. Duana’s guidance has so deeply helped us, helped our love, and is still part of our growth. This woman has brains and a golden heart that loves to bring love in the world.

I feel hopeful about dating, more than I ever have. I know I can do this with confidence, patience and persistence. I know that the love I want is out there. I feel strong, confident, hopeful, empowered and psyched to be dating the way I WANT!, instead of feeling silly about stating my dealbreakers or backing down when someone says to me that “I’m too serious,” which has happened before. I was dating the WRONG guys but I had low self-esteem so instead of moving on when they pushed back, I thought I couldn’t do better and allowed them to set the tone and course of the relationship. I’m really enjoying dating as the high-status woman I am who deserves an amazing love. I’ve never felt more empowered by allowing them to pursue—it’s fun!
Sandra (30s)
Online dating is a burning building where almost everyone crawls around aimlessly in the smoke. I didn’t need help getting a date. I needed a plan to find the wife I’m going to spend the rest of my life with. I needed someone with real-life experience and data-driven expertise to help me see the plan through instead of switching to the contradicting, less-informed advice of family and friends. In six months, Duana helped me find my wife who is perfect for me. Even before that, she gave me something half as good, hope—which I had lost. Duana can’t make the fire and smoke go away, but she is better than anyone at lighting up the floor to the exit and getting you the hell out of there.

Is there a science to love, or are we all just wandering aimlessly in the dating wilderness? I will show you 5 science backed insights.
My own dating journey was fraught with missteps and self-imposed narratives. As a pharmacist, I blamed my profession was the reason behind my dating failures because I believe “women like medical doctors better”. This narrative persisted through medical school and even as a full-fledged physician. “It’s the busy hours being a doctor” I’d tell myself. But in 2018, a realization hit me: I needed dating help, badly…
Enter Duana Welch. Her book, “Love Factually”, was a revelation; Duana was my Morpheus! I read her book and asked her to coach me. She didn’t just show me the science; she guided me on a journey of self-discovery.
We accomplished the following:
- Dissected my failed dating experiences
- Identified my must-haves and wants
- Charted a new path forward
“Love Factually” gave me 5 science backed key insights:
1. Attachment Style Compatibility: Understand your own attachment style and that of your potential partner to determine if you are a good match.
2. Core Values: Identify and discuss your core values with your potential partner to ensure you share similar beliefs and principles.
3. Emotional Intelligence: Develop your emotional intelligence to better understand and manage your own emotions and those of your partner.
4. Personality Type Compatibility: Assess your personality type and that of your potential partner to determine if you complement each other.
5. Communication: Establish open and honest communication with your potential partner to build trust and resolve conflicts effectively.
The result? Two years of blissful marriage with my wonderful wife, Alexandra, a compassionate physician and soon-to-be mother (see photo). Our love story is a testament to the power of introspection and guidance. This is not a happy ending; it is a HAPPY JOURNEY.
I give “Love Factually” and Duana Welch together a solid 10/10. Not just for evidence-based approach to dating, but for its emphasis on self-awareness. If you’re struggling in any aspect of life, remember this: seeking a coach can be the catalyst for profound change and success.
Read “Love Factually” and talk to Duana Welch.”
Infinite Learning… Infinite Possibilities…
