Emotional Equity: Measure Shared Effort

If you led your love life like a business, you’d never settle again. In this episode of Tiger Sisters, we break down five powerful frameworks to help you date with clarity, confidence, and intention. From setting boundaries to building emotional equity, it’s time to make relationship decisions that truly help you grow.

We share:

✅ The truth about invisible labor and mixed signals

✅ Chemistry vs. compatibility and how to tell quickly

✅ Emotional equity — what balanced effort looks like

✅ Clean deal terms & boundary scripts that stick

✅ 3-question Litmus Test to stop over-giving yourself
