We’re back from the dead 😅—sickness, moves, mom life chaos, studio lighting fails, and all—and this week we’re diving straight into one of the most talked-about dating theories on the internet: the infamous three boxes men put women in.

You’ve probably heard it:
👉 The friend box
👉 The “fun” box
👉 The fiancé box

But is it really that simple?

In this episode, we unpack where this theory comes from, why it resonates with so many women, and—most importantly—how it can actually take your power away if you’re not careful. We talk honestly about dating experiences, mixed signals, inconsistency, boundaries, self-worth, and the painful moments when effort isn’t being matched.

Then we flip the script.

Instead of asking “What box am I in?” we introduce a new framework: unboxing the man. We break down the questions every woman should be asking to determine if someone is emotionally available, ready for a relationship, capable of sustaining intimacy, and aligned with the life she wants.

We also get real about:
• Why “if he wanted to, he would” is usually true
• The difference between attraction and intention
• How social media and validation play into modern dating
• Why over-performing never leads to commitment
• And why choosing yourself changes everything

This episode is for anyone who’s ever waited, overanalyzed, lowered their standards, or questioned their worth in dating. You’re not broken. You’re not behind. And you don’t need to fit into anyone’s box.

Pull up a chair, sister. You’re safe here. 💛
