Listen Later

This episode is for every Black woman who’s ever asked: Where are the men who match my ambition, education, and values? We’re diving into real research that discusses some of the woes, I'm sure most of us have experienced during our dating journeys: a skewed dating market. But we’re not stopping at the stats. We’re unpacking:

  • Why the numbers don’t lie
  • The emotional toll of dating in a limited pool
  • The most common strategies Black women are using to navigate the gap
  • Whether education or race matters more when it comes to compatibility
  • How to move from frustration to clarity without settling
