I Know What I Deserve Now and This Is NOT It

EPISODE 20: I Know What I Deserve Now and This Is NOT ItA few weeks ago, I went for dinner with two of my besties and as we enjoyed our food, I revealed all about a new guy on the scene who would be taking me on a date 4 days later.They suggested I record a pre-date episode that I could reflect back on after this initial date.And that’s exactly what this episode was *supposed* to be.But something happened……In this episode of The Date with Confidence Podcast, we’re having a candid and empowering chat about setting boundaries and knowing your worth when it comes to dating. It’s not the episode I had planned but it’s packed full of powerful reminders we all need from time to time.Here are the key topics covered:1. The Anticipated Date: Initially, the plan was to delve into the pre-date excitement, expectations, and the lead-up to a potentially exciting rendezvous with a brand new match.2. The Unexpected: The message I had a feeling was coming but didn’t want to receive and why I was so outraged by it.3. Boundaries and Self-Worth: I’m sharing how proud I am of my own personal growth when it comes to setting strong boundaries and recognising my own value. Gone are the days where I’ll settle for second best.4. Empowerment through Experience: Each disappointing encounter reinforces my commitment to high standards and self-worth. I want to encourage you to adopt a similar mindset to the one I share, recognising when a situation doesn't align with your value.Remember, you're not alone in navigating the dating world, and setting boundaries is a powerful act of self-love. Until next time, stay empowered and confident.For the full story that will never be shared publicly, join The Date with Confidence Podcast Substack here.Get Involved!You can contribute your stories to the Date with Confidence Podcast here.
