A lot of relationship stress comes from the small stuff you keep letting slide until it becomes normal. In this episode, you’ll learn how to set clear relationship standards that protect your time, energy, and self-respect in dating, marriage, and friendships.

We break down what standards actually are (not control), how to spot patterns early when you’re dating, how to reset expectations inside an existing relationship, and how to handle one-sided friendships without blowing things up. If you want healthier relationships, better communication, and stronger boundaries, this gives you practical language and simple steps you can use this week.
