This episode is for anyone who’s ever second-guessed themselves in love (which is pretty much all of us!)

I’m walking you through my personal dating and relationship checklist, not as a set of rigid rules, but as a tool to stay in alignment with who I am and what I really want. Think of it as a gentle nudge back to yourself when the noise of dating, relationships, or even marriage gets too loud.

I’m sharing the real questions I ask -  the kind that cut through the fluff and help you see what’s working and what’s not. Whether you’re dating, in a long-term relationship, or just getting curious about what you truly need, this one’s going to get you thinking. Expect honesty, a little humor, and a lot of heart.
