🎙️ Ep. 8 Relationship Advice for Our Younger Selves
What would you tell your younger self about love, dating, and heartbreak?
In this week’s episode of The Couples Edition, we’re sharing the relationship advice we wish we had in our teens and 20s — before dating, getting engaged, or married. From the cringey mistakes to the red flags we ignored (and green flags we overlooked), we’re spilling all the tea on how our perspectives have changed.
We open up about the pressure to settle, the difference between attraction and alignment, and the self-worth lessons that changed how we love. If you’re navigating the dating world, reflecting on past relationships, or just want real talk about what actually matters in a healthy partnership.. this one’s for you.
