In this episode, we break down the pressure to rush into relationships, the beauty of high standards, and why waiting for the right person is wisdom—not fear.In a world full of wedding bells, social timelines, and “you’re next!” comments at every family gathering, it’s easy to feel like you’re behind. But here’s the truth: if we wanted a relationship, we could absolutely have one tomorrow — we just don’t want a subpar one.In this episode, we dive into the difference between being “always single” and being a woman who holds actual standards.Inspired by a hilarious TikTok by the creator Davi that said:“Sometimes I wish my standards were low so I could find the love of my life eight times a year like some of you.”WHAT WE GET INTO: The Myth of the “Perpetually Single Woman”Why high standards don’t make you picky — they make you wise.It’s not selfish to want alignment in faith, kids, finances, values, and long-term vision.Comparison fatigue heightens with weddings, proposals, and curated highlight reels.Fear of being alone vs. the fear of being with the wrong person.Divorce is more expensive — emotionally, spiritually, financially.The wrong relationship can dull your calling, delay your purpose, or derail your vocation.Peace is priceless.
