Dating Roster

FLX • STNY

Matchmaking • Singles Experiences

Real matchmaking, by a real person, for people who are done with the apps.

WHY THE ROSTER EXISTS

You've done the apps. You've gone on the dates that went nowhere. You've explained yourself to strangers a hundred times and still felt unseen.
The Dating Roster was born from my desire to connect people in a deeper way. I'm building a community of singles who want an intentional dating experience, and as I get to know each of you, I'm inspired to find that missing piece in your life that will complement and bring a deeper sense of love and community.
No swiping. 
No algorithms. 
No wasted time. 
Just one person who wants to get to know you and work towards finding your person.

HOW IT WORKS

On Boarding Call

We start with a real conversation - a full 60 minutes where I learn your story, your values, your lifestyle, and what you're truly looking for. This is the foundation on which everything else is built.

Our check-ins

Every 4-6 weeks, we talk. A short call to see how you're feeling, what's changed, and what you're learning about yourself. Your search stays active, and you stay supported.

Curated introductions

When I find someone who genuinely fits, I make the introduction. Quality over quantity, always.

How can I be apart of the Roster?

Date with confidence

Experience my coaching 
Consider working with me on a one-on-one basis to prepare you for the right person.  
When we go into a relationship not aligned with ourselves, not healed, we tend to settle for comfort.  But the long-term effects of this are never comfortable, and as an adult, you need to take responsibility. 
Whatever belief systems, habits, or lifestyles are getting in the way of you finding the right person are not worth holding on to, and you know that.  So when you are ready, I am here.  If you are not sure what is in the way, I am also here to explore that with you.  
Working with a coach is NOT about me telling you what is wrong with you.  I am not in your shoes. 
I am a professional, who unconditionally explores your situations/story with you in an ethical way so we can move past with confidence and consciously create the life you dream of.

Testimonials

  • Justina, First, I wanted to share how excited I am for the Dating Roster. As a middle aged woman it’s hard to meet new people. We have had the limited choices of the non vetted apps or crossing our fingers and hoping we meet that special someone in a bar or the grocery store. The more people I talk to the more that they say this service is what is needed in our area and it such a great thing you do! I have a few singles varying in ages interested in the program and I hope to get signed up soon. Secondly, my overall experience has been great! Unfortunately I missed movie night and pottery class which is are awesome ideas for likeminded singles. My first event that I attended was a casual get together of a variety of singles at an adorable venue. You worked with us as a group to introduce ourselves and provided ice breaker questions to see who have similar interests or interesting things about that person. Then as all the singles conversed you took the time to check-in and was attentive to each single who was struggling (Hint: ME lol). By the end of the evening I felt I left with maybe a friend or 2. It was a great first experience for me and I can’t wait for the next event! Third, Justina…You are just awesome! Our initial one on one meeting you took the time to get to know me and what I was looking for in a special partner. You kept in contact and really tried to get to know me the person and not just the basic statistics of the apps. I’m looking forward to my individual date once you find that special someone that may be right for me. I am excited about the service you are providing. You are putting all your effort into finding new singles, creating events to bring us together to mingle and managing to maintain connections with all the members. You are providing the service that I have been needing for years. Thank you so much for taking the leap and creating the Dating Roster!

  • Hi Justina,

    Thank you so much for all that you have been doing with the Dating Roster. I attended my first event, and I really had a great time. Choosing a venue that's relaxed and comfortable is great, and the icebreakers really did help.

    You definitely have a variety of people as members, and I'm sure that will only grow over time!

    This is so much more reliable and trustworthy than online dating, and it's a lot more comfortable than trying to go out and "find" people in random places.

    I'm really enjoying the service, and I appreciate all of the work and care that you're putting into it!

    Thank you so much!

  • The way Justina structured the dating experience made it very easy for me to go into meeting someone without feeling nervous. My date was a perfect gentleman, and I believe we both enjoyed our time. I’m thankful there is a service to help me get back into dating.

  • About four months ago, which was one year after the death of my
    husband, I realized that, although I was still enjoying a wonderful
    and active life, I wanted there to be a man in it again. A friend told
    me about The Grow Parlor. This is exactly the kind of dating service I
    was looking for.  After my very thorough introductory call with
    Justina, I decidded to become a member.  I am enjoying my membership
    very much.  I have attended some of the activities.  Besides helping
    me find the right man to have in my life again, I am benefiting
    greatly from Justina's outstanding dating coaching. I have been seeing
    someone for a short period of time.  Since it has been many years
    since I have dated, talking to Justina every two weeks about him is
    extremely helpful.  She is a very good listener and also asks
    questions that make me think very hard about what I am doing.  I
    greatly value her advice.  I am looking forward to enjoying the
    services that the Grow Parlor offers for a long time.

You may have noticed the calendar is gone, and so have the recurring experiences.
This is because I have decided to pull back my energy and focus on my members who are seeking intentional relationships.
I am, however, keeping the premium experiences like this dinner party, The Art of Connection, for people who want to make new friends which is the basis of the dates I set my matches on: rule #1... go in expecting to make a friend.
Thank you for visiting the site. I am deeply sorry if this is disappointing, but I need to focus on the mission of the Dating Roster... creating connection.

  • Yes. Every membership can be paused and reinstated with no term limits.
