About this episode

Are you tired of dating?

What’s your biggest dating struggle?

Today, Jay talks about the complexities of dating, relationships, and building meaningful connections in today’s fast-paced world. He emphasizes the importance of focusing on trust, emotional maturity, communication, and shared values – traits that truly matter in a partner – while learning to move past surface-level “icks” that can distract us from finding real love.

Through personal anecdotes and insights from Match’s Singles in America study, Jay explores why many of us are chasing outdated ideas of love, trying to recreate the romanticized relationships of our younger selves. Instead, shift your focus to the present, to nurture healthy dynamics built on honesty, respect, and mutual growth.

In this episode, you'll learn:

How to Build Trust in Relationships

How to Spot the Right Partner Through Their Actions

How to Ask Questions That Reveal True Priorities

How to Balance Patience and Expectations in Relationships

How to Handle Communication Differences Effectively

No matter where you are on your journey –single, dating, or in a long-term relationship – remember that love is a process, not a destination.

With Love and Gratitude,

Jay Shetty
