In this episode of Embrace the Journey, we dive deep into a pattern many of us know too well: dating someone not for who they are now, but for who we hope they’ll become. While vision and belief in someone's growth can be beautiful, it often blurs the line between love and a long-term project.
I share personal reflections and hard-earned lessons about the emotional toll of investing in potential over reality, the red flags we tend to excuse, and how this mindset can keep us in cycles of disappointment and self-abandonment. We’ll talk about what it looks like to choose partners who show up—not just promise to.
If you’ve ever found yourself waiting for someone to “get it together,” or staying in a relationship because “they could be so great if…”—this episode is for you.
🎙️ Tune in for real talk, clarity, and a reminder that love should meet you in the present, not a version of the future only you can see.
