    Putting Yourself Out There | Rose Sweet and Tanner Kalina

    Jumping into a relationship can be equally exciting and daunting. What are the rules for entering the dating scene without being too forward? If you’re coming out of a hard breakup, how long should you wait before getting back out there? Rose Sweet and Tanner Kalina discuss how to send signals without being too forward, how to protect yourself against bonding with someone prematurely, and how to find identity in Christ rather than in a partner. Both bring unique perspectives from their own relationships that offer insight into fostering healthy motivations for seeking a relationship and guarding yourself against the pain of a harmful breakup.

    Help! I'm Still Single! | Madigan Maere and Brendan McCauley

    Dare to Be Different | Jason Evert

    Standing out in a crowd can be daunting, but it might be exactly what you need to find the right person in your life. Speaker and author Jason Evert lays out the importance of being clear with your intentions. That can be scary, and may scare off others…but perhaps it’s best to scare off the ones that aren’t meant to be in your life. The topics of chastity and exclusivity might often cause eyerolls, but is the pendulum swinging? Are devotion to commitment and safeguarding our boundaries the modern keys to successful dating? All that and more on this episode of Intentional Dating.   Single and Catholic?

    Am I Dateable? | Chris Meehan

    What does it mean to be dateable? Chris Meehan, a marriage and family therapist, talks through what it means to be the kind of person you would want to date. Psychological development can affect our behavior more than we realize, from reinforced insecurities to childhood trauma. Working through our own story and learning to live in our identity, we can learn what it means to authentically “be yourself” and be ready for relationships. We discuss questions of masculinity, whether couples really complete each other, the types of attachment styles, and more. By understanding what makes us who we are and reasons  behind our habits and emotions, we become better prepared to meet others by meeting ourselves first. Produced by Patrick Lehe and Alan Hewitt.
