In this episode, I break down why we crave being chosen in dating and how shifting into being the chooser transforms your confidence, clarity, and relationships. I unpack the media messages, attachment patterns, and personal experiences that keep us chasing validation, and I walk you through how to date from a place of self-worth, clarity, and mutual choosing. At the end, I dive into a dating dilemma about catching feelings for someone who isn’t ready to date.
