So many of us were taught how to be chosen instead of how to choose.

In this episode, writer, filmmaker, and podcast host Rory Uphold (Crimes of the Heart) joins me to talk about unlearning the dating rules that keep us stuck, why self-trust is the most underrated green flag, and how to finally stop settling for people who breadcrumb you.

We dive into the fear of being single, the difference between intuition and anxiety, and the quiet confidence that changes everything about how you date. Rory shares how to rewire the beliefs that keep you chasing validation, what “fun certainty” really means, and why the right person will never make you question your worth.
