About this episode

Listening to our gut when something’s off can save us a lot of time and stress when we’re dating . . . but what if we can’t tell the difference between when our gut is warning us and when our anxiety is trying to sabotage us? What if the red flags we think we’re seeing are actually our fears in disguise? If you have a tendency toward anxiety, this second-guessing can make the early days of dating extra stressful, because you may have a hard time separating an important concern from your ever-vigilant anxiety. If you’ve ever wondered, “Is it me or is it them?” you can’t miss today’s episode, in which I share five ways to tell if it’s a major concern or your anxiety talking.
