Snow on the ground means Christmas is officially here—so let’s unwrap today’s episode. After chatting about breakups last week, we’re jumping into the messy, magical question: How do you know you’re ready to date again?

We talk about why there’s no single “green light,” how to protect the healing you worked so hard for, and why one bad date doesn’t mean love is canceled. I break down the art of patience (because being ready doesn’t mean they are), the importance of noticing where you meet people, and the power of trusting your gut when something feels off—or surprisingly right.

We also challenge the idea that you have to be perfectly healed. Spoiler: you don’t. Some people actually help you grow. And through it all, we lean into God’s timing—asking for clarity, direction, and protection from anything that isn’t meant for us.

A quick, honest guide to stepping back into dating without losing yourself in the process.

Welcome to our first series of Season 2!

In this episode, we unpack the emotional aftermath of a breakup and explore what it looks like to heal with intention instead of attachment. We talk about reflecting on both the good and the bad—without romanticizing, rewriting history, or slipping into the “what if” spiral. These reflections become powerful teachers, helping us redefine our standards, reinforce our boundaries, and understand what we truly want moving forward.

We dive into the importance of no contact, and how stepping away can become a lifeline rather than a punishment. We discuss what it means to feel your emotions without tormenting yourself, and why curating your environment—what you see, who you follow, what you expose yourself to—matters during this delicate phase.

This episode is about rediscovering strength in yourself and in your faith. We explore becoming the reason you get back up, rebuilding motivation from within, and recognizing that singleness is not a setback—it’s a season of power, clarity, and identity. We talk about having faith that what comes next will be better, not because you’re hoping… but because you’re growing.

We address the truth we all avoid: we may want someone, but we don’t always need someone. Breakups become more painful when we exhaust ourselves trying to hold onto people who no longer choose us. And sometimes, the most freeing realization is that not everything needs a reaction—some people won’t change, and that simply means life has something brighter aligned for you.

This episode is a reminder that healing is not about getting someone back—it's about getting yourself back.

In this episode, we dive into what it really looks like to be in the process — that in-between stage where you’re outgrowing your old self but not quite living as your dream self yet. It’s that messy middle where you’re learning, healing, and preparing for the version of you you’ve been envisioning.

We talk about what this “becoming” season feels like — the waiting, the quiet growth, the uncomfortable stretch — and how it’s all part of your preparation. Because before the dream version of you arrives, you have to make space for them. You have to build the discipline, the self-awareness, and the peace that version of you will stand on.

This episode is a reminder that you don’t need to have it all figured out to be becoming. You just have to be willing to grow through the in-between.

Welcome to the FIRST EPISODE of Season 2!

In this episode, we unpack the very real and relatable experience of being in a funk — those seasons where you feel off, unmotivated, or disconnected from yourself and the world around you. We talk about why these funks happen in the first place — from emotional burnout, overstimulation, and lack of structure to deeper causes like self-comparison, unprocessed change, and disconnection from purpose.

But we also talk about how to rise from it — not with unrealistic routines or forced positivity, but by reconnecting with what’s real. We explore what it means to rebuild discipline when you’ve lost momentum, find stillness when your mind feels chaotic, and take small steps that help you feel grounded again.

This episode is your reminder that a funk doesn’t mean you’ve failed — it’s often your body and mind asking for a reset. Sometimes, slowing down, showing up differently, and choosing yourself again is exactly how you find your way back.

I'm so happy you are here!

In this episode, we dive into the power and importance of accountability—specifically within your relationships with others. It’s easy to point fingers or let emotions take the lead, but true growth comes from looking inward first. We talk about how taking accountability starts with you—your choices, your reactions, and your ability to stay grounded in who you are, even when things get tough. This conversation explores how responsibility and self-awareness strengthen not just your character, but also your connections with the people around you. When you can admit where you’ve fallen short and learn from it, you build deeper trust, emotional maturity, and genuine respect in your relationships.

In this episode, we dive into the art of slowing down in a world that glorifies hustle. We talk about how easy it is to get caught in constant motion — always chasing the next goal, plan, or distraction — and how that often leaves us feeling disconnected from ourselves. This conversation explores the power of stillness: what it truly means to pause, to breathe, and to be present. We reflect on how stillness isn’t about doing nothing, but about creating space to listen to your thoughts, realign with your values, and find clarity amidst chaos. Because sometimes, the most productive thing you can do is simply be.

When it comes to love, knowing your non negotiables isn’t about being “too picky” — it’s about knowing your worth. In this episode, we talk about the importance of having high standards in romantic relationships and what it really means to honor them. From understanding what you truly need versus what you’ve been taught to settle for, to recognizing the difference between connection and comfort, this conversation is all about protecting your peace. We dive into why self-respect is the foundation of every healthy relationship and how standing firm in your values invites the right kind of love — one that feels safe, mutual, and genuine. Because the right person won’t be intimidated by your standards; they’ll meet you at them.

Growing up isn’t just about getting older — it’s about learning how to carry the pieces of yourself that once felt simple, free, and full of wonder. In this episode, we dive into the fear of growing up — the part that feels like losing your youth, your spontaneity, or even yourself. We talk about how comparison, timing, and pressure can make adulthood feel like a race instead of a journey, and how easy it is to push away the version of you that still deserves space in your life. But what if growing up isn’t about leaving your younger self behind — it’s about learning how to bring them with you? This episode is all about redefining what it means to “grow up” and finding ways to keep your light, curiosity, and authenticity alive through every season of your life.

So often in life we only see the start and the finish line—the person we used to be and the person we hope to become. But in the waiting, in the messy middle, is where real growth is happening. In this episode, we talk about the importance of noticing and appreciating your transformation as it unfolds. Healing isn’t instant, and growth doesn’t happen overnight, but every version of you along the way matters. To truly love who you’ll become, you have to learn to love who you are right now—the version of you carrying yourself from point A to point B.

In this episode, we talk about what it truly means to build a relationship with Christ. God is the most consistent presence in our lives, and faith is learning to trust with absolute certainty how He is working, even when we don’t see the full picture yet. This kind of relationship doesn’t happen overnight—it develops over time as we lean into His presence and respond to His call with urgency. Together, we’ll reflect on how God is moving in your life right now, and how drawing closer to Him transforms the way you see yourself, your circumstances, and your future.
