EP. 15 | I’M DATING

In this episode, Jenna Marilyn steps into her dating era—on purpose.No scripts. No shrinking. Just curiosity, discernment, and a running check-in with her nervous system.She talks about dating multiple people for the first time and what it’s teaching her: that the “first-time” feelings we crown as fate are often just data. Calm after a date can feel like savasana—and it doesn’t make someone your soulmate. Chivalry (hello, car doors) is lovely, but it’s the baseline, not the banner.Jenna shares why she asks big questions early (kids, money, marriage, values), why a non-negotiables list is clarity—not rigidity—and how to flip the focus from “Do they like me?” to “Do I like them?” She explores living your 20s with intention, taking aligned action, and letting people feel the weight of you—then decide.There’s a real-life interruption (dog drama, ER and all), messy consistency, and a through-line of truth: don’t slip into a life; build one. Ask better questions. Make choices today your future will thank you for.For feedback or thoughts, email Jenna at [email protected]: Jenna MarilynProducer: JD FerrellPresented by: THE Modern Podcast Network and Themodern.fm
