Is it true that "the right person will love you just as you are"? Yes… and no. In this episode, Keshia breaks down the uncomfortable but necessary truth: if you want a healthy, loving, stable relationship, you will need to grow. Not change your identity but absolutely evolve your habits, your mindset, your emotional patterns, and your expectations.

This episode is a loving (but firm) invitation to look inward so you can stop repeating toxic cycles and finally become the woman aligned with the relationship you want.

What You'll Learn

Why "new year, new me" actually matters when it comes to your dating life

The hidden ways women resist change and how that sabotages relationships

Why chemistry is often trauma bonding, not compatibility

How your brain pulls you toward what's familiar, even when it hurts

Why healthy men expect accountability, communication, and reciprocity

Why relying on a man to "save" you financially or emotionally creates desperation

How to become more interesting, grounded, and emotionally mature — without changing who you are

Scripture to Anchor This Episode

"Everything that's good to you isn't good for you." Wisdom from Grandma, backed by Proverbs 14:12
There is a way that appears right, but in the end it leads to destruction.
