Monique Alemán · Founder, TrueLuvTake2
After decades of leadership working with people, teams, and complex decisions, Monique noticed something she couldn't unsee — the care used to evaluate meaningful professional partnerships was far more thoughtful than anything available for love.
"TrueLuvTake2 was created to honor the richness of this stage of life."
I didn't want to open the doors before the room was ready. The Garden opens when 250 people have arrived — not because of a rule, but because connection requires community. You deserve to walk into a room full of possibility.
"Wisdom is not something we acquire.
It is something we uncover."
Monique's understanding of love began at home — watching her parents move through life together with grace. Her father was the first sacred masculine presence. The love between them set a powerful imprint for what partnership could look like.
"The quiet dignity of a king and queen." Not dramatic. Not performative. Simply consistent — showing up on ordinary days with steadiness and care.
"Love, at its truest, is not dramatic. It is consistent. It shows up on ordinary days."
Different relationships through the years shaped Monique's understanding of love — some brought joy and family, some brought lessons, others revealed new dimensions of intimacy, friendship, and connection.
But her two sons have been her greatest teachers of all. They have shown her what it means to love without condition, to give without keeping score, and to be fully, joyfully present in someone's life.

Whether you're looking for love or showing up for someone you love — there is a place for you here.
