Dating can feel scary.

Not just because there are men out there who don't have good intentions.

But because at some point, you're supposed to trust someone you still don't fully know 🫣

Let your guard down.

Believe they're who they say they are.

And hope you've got it right 🤞

What if you miss the red flags?

What if you trust the wrong man?

What if you end up hurt, blindsided or wishing you'd listened to yourself sooner?

It's a horrible position to be in.

Because you want love.

But you also want to feel safe.

And it can feel like in order to have love, you have to leap at some point and just hope the man you’re on a date with, or dating seriously has the best intentions.

Thankfully, that's not your only option.

Because feeling safe with the man or men you’re dating isn’t actually about putting your trust in men.

It’s about leaning more fully into something you already have access to and that prioritizes what’s right for YOU above all else.

In this episode you’ll see:

• Why trusting men isn’t the goal you want if you’re dating to find love
• What makes it easier to spot red flags and see through all the dating BS
• And actually walk away when you first see them 🚩
• How smart women accidentally hand their trust to the wrong men
• Conditions that make it easier to spot the men who do have the best intentions.

If you’re a woman who’s dating, this is an episode you NEEEED to take the time to listen to.

Because your safety is what matters most 😘 and this is how you ensure it.
