281. Reclaim your power in dating

This podcast episode focuses on reclaiming personal power in dating, particularly for those in their 20s. The host shares a personal anecdote about losing her agency in a past relationship, then outlines three main reasons people lose power in dating: repeated rejection, relationship trauma, and scarcity mindsets. She offers five actionable tips: taking a dating detox, creating a list of non-negotiables, stopping dating games, using positive self-talk before dates, and reframing rejection as a filtering process. Listeners are encouraged to prioritize self-respect and focus on their own needs and desires in dating.
