modern dating and feminine energy principles: love, expectations and discernment (145)

a modern woman's no BS guide to dating men in 2025

Summer love is in the air! Or is it? Let's get REAL about modern dating. In this episode I’m kicking off a much needed convo in response to comments on my recent TikTok post about dating men and making plans. As someone who’s just getting back into the dating world after a 2 year hiatus, I am approaching dating a bit different than I normally have in the past. This time around I’m way more intentional and have more self-love, more self-respect and knowledge of feminine & masculine energy dynamics. A woman who is committed to working on herself is always going to be high value. Remember that queens!

In this episode we also dive into:

  • setting the tone when dating and asking the right questions

  • allowing men to lead

  • the importance of using your intuition, discernment and active listening skills

  • making a list of the qualities that your perfect partner has

  • understanding your non-negotiable requirements and ideal partner traits

  • choosing to settle or not settle

Whether you’re a single girlie or just want to tap into this conversation, it’s a good one! Regardless of your dating status I believe that feminine energy principles, boundaries, and self respect are things we can all learn to activate in order to attract aligned partnerships (platonic and romantic).
