In this episode, I'm sharing a transparent update about the podcast: why I decided to rename it The Feminist Dating Show. I talk through the intention behind the previous name, what I heard from listeners over time, and why I want the podcast name to immediately feel inclusive and clear—especially for people who are new to this work.

If you're stuck in a spiral of overthinking — replaying conversations, asking 15 friends what to do, imagining every worst-case scenario — this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

In this episode, I break down: • Why anxious rumination feels so real and so urgent • How patriarchy, people-pleasing, and fear of rejection trained you not to trust yourself • The difference between
