Preparing for Marriage Starts Long Before You Meet Someone (w/ David Huish) [Ep. #344]

Being single can sometimes feel like something you're supposed to get through as quickly as possible. But what if it isn't a waiting room? In this episode, Andrew sits down with David Huish to talk about singleness, personal growth, and what it actually means to prepare for marriage. David shares how Core evolved from a small group reading Core of the Universe into an online program and community designed to help people become more connected to themselves, their community, and their future relationships. They talk about why being comfortable in your own skin matters, how phones and modern culture can make it easier to avoid ourselves, and why communication, self-awareness, and connection are foundational skills for healthy relationships. David also reflects on his own experience of preparing for marriage while remaining single. After several years of intentionally doing the work, he describes himself as a happier and clearer single person, with a greater ability to be a blessing to the people around him. The goal isn't simply to get married. It's to become the kind of person who can build a healthy relationship when the time comes.
