How do you know when someone is truly the person you want to build a life with?

In this episode, we talk about the big question so many people ask in dating: How do I know if they’re “the one”? We share how we each knew with our own partners, then walk through the real-life markers that can help you understand the long-term viability of a relationship.

In this episode, we explore:

Shared values
Emotional support
Healthy conflict
Lifestyle fit
Hard conversations
Intentional pacing

The goal is not to find a perfect person or a perfect relationship. The goal is to notice whether this relationship has the ingredients for safety, honesty, repair, joy, and a shared life that actually works.
