14 | Intentional Early Phase

In the last episode, I focused on getting intentional about meeting new people this summer and setting some dating goals. That got me thinking about ways to be intentional if you've already met someone and are in the early, gathering information phase of dating. In this episode, I share some ideas for how to wisely go about getting to know someone.

13 | Summer dating goals (and a story about a dinner club)

This epidsode has a couple glitches- pardon the moments of silence! I could try to edit or re-do it, but I'm choosing to go with done and good rather than perfect. =) Anyhow, summer is a great time to meet new people and work on some dating goals. What if you set a goal to meet 15 new people by September? Let's consider going new places, trying new activities, and even being the one to host events where others can connect. I mention episodes 7 and 12 if you're looking for more tips on meeting new people.
