In this episode, Zipporah Monique joined us to discuss the idea of dating yourself. This means taking the time to focus on your hobbies and interests and giving yourself the love and attention that you need.
It also involves setting goals for yourself and telling yourself positive things. The speaker notes that this can be especially helpful for people who have been covering up their pain for a long time and don't know who they are anymore.
Zipporah talked about how important it is to get to know oneself, and how doing things alone can be a great way to do that. We talk about how asking oneself questions and going on dates with oneself can help to uncover things that you may not have known about yourself before. We also talk about how the pandemic has forced many people to spend more time alone, which has helped them to get to know themselves better.
This episode will open the idea of dating oneself, which includes solo activities like hiking and going to the movies, as well as traveling to new places alone. We talk about the benefits of self-love and how it can raise your standards in the dating world. Zipporah, advises people who want to be more independent to start small, by doing things like going to Starbucks or the mall by themselves. She says that after she went to a festival by herself, she realized that she could do anything and that it was a great way to meet new people and connect with herself.

Wisdom words from Zipporah Monique
"Dating myself means one shedding out. I don't want to say shut out the world. I want to say that it's those things that the hobbies that I love."
"We have these hobbies that we never get around to doing because our life is so busy or we're so focused on other people's tasks."
"Beautiful is the woman in alignment with her divine assignment, and the princess has no idea what her assignment is."
"I thought to myself, is, this is the only love that I can get. This is all that I'm worthy of." "So I incorporated that just for the women who didn't have a mom to write them that letter."
"A lot of us high performers, we sometimes do it because we feel like our validation is connected to our work or our productivity."
"In what areas or in what ways are you going to live a more bold and more courageous life?" "If you're not asking the right questions, you're headed down probably the wrong road."

Are you caught in the chaos of addiction, constantly cleaning up emotional, spiritual, and physical messes that aren't yours? Welcome to Faith Over Addiction, where faith meets real life. Hosted by Family Recovery Coach Tanya Gioia, this podcast is designed to offer Christian women hope, healing, and practical tools to navigate the challenges of loving someone with addiction.
Through biblical truths, heartfelt stories, and actionable guidance, you’ll learn how to set healthy boundaries, find peace in the mess, and reclaim your God-given identity. You don’t have to carry what was never meant to be yours. It’s time to shift from “this is happening to me” to “this is happening for me,” and let God transform the chaos into something that glorifies Him.
Every week, I’m here to encourage you, offer clarity, and remind you that as a daughter of the King, You Always Have Other Options (YAHOO). Together, we’ll embrace faith as the foundation, boundaries as the bridge to healing, and God’s truth as the ultimate guide to freedom, strength, and grace.
Blessings,
Tanya Gioia 🌸
