About this episode

The episode discusses important questions to ask while dating to ensure compatibility and understanding in a relationship.

In this episode, we’re talking all about dating with intention and the questions that actually matter when you’re thinking about a future with someone. Not in a scary interview way 😂 but in a real, honest way that helps you better understand compatibility, values, communication, goals, family, finances, faith, and the everyday things that shape a relationship long term. We’re sharing how to naturally bring up deeper conversations, what we personally think is important to know before committing to someone, and why asking the right questions early can save a lot of confusion later on.
