In this episode, Gretchen wakes up in a spicy mood and turns into the blunt big sister you didn’t know you needed. We’re talking dating men, being in control of your emotions, and how to keep your standards high without slipping into pick-me energy, over-explaining, or handing some dusty guy the remote control to your emotions.She breaks down what high-quality men actually respond to (self-respect, boundaries, emotional control), what dusty men look for (desperation and easy access), and gives real-life scripts for texts, cancellations, and early red flags, including love bombing and isolation tactics. As always it’s unfiltered, and wildly practical, it’s the playbook for dating with standards, not desperation.📧 To get in touch with the podcast, email: teamgretchen@avoiragency.com__💕 Watch episodes on Youtube and follow Gretchen on Instagram and Tiktok__✅ Please make sure to subscribe, follow, rate and review!Hosted on Acast.
