218. Overcome your fear of never finding love
Our fear of being alone forever and never finding the right one is scary, but it's also pretty natural. Whether you have never dated before, or are worried that you have missed your chance for true, long term love, it can be hard to imagine ourselves finding the right person without getting really caught up in the dating process.

- The fear of missing out
- The impact of social pain
- The societal narrative towards singlehood
- Single shaming language + the role of ambiguous loss
- Does a fear of being alone make us less selective?
- How to be self partnered and actually LOVE it!
All of that and some much more! Listen now!
