Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we welcome Erica Turner to the show, the creator of The Relationship Reset on Instagram and the Secure Dating Playbook, to have a conversation with us about communication in early dating!
We open the show with how to reset the relationship we have with ourselves and reframe some common experiences we might have out there dating. Experiences like feeling like it’s never going to happen, feeling like we’re not enough or like we’re too much, and ultimately how we can develop more secure connections within ourselves.
Then we get into communication questions as we talk about frequency and pacing, how often to text, what to do when someone’s communication style feels different from yours, are we following on social media, and how we can navigate perhaps difficult conversations when we need to express a need or boundary.
Finally, we’ll share guidance on building emotional intimacy and compatibility in early dating, how to know if someone might ghost you, and why vulnerability is the key to authentic connection.
So, whether you’re just starting something new or trying to move beyond surface-level small talk, this episode is your invitation to flirt with deeper connection.
Let’s do this Flirties, and meet Erica!
