⚠️ Trigger Warning: Emotional abuse, manipulation

Why do we miss red flags… even when they’re right in front of us?

In this episode, I sit down with Justin Smith, creator of the dating safety app CRAY, as he shares his story of betrayal after an 8-year relationship.

He thought he was careful. Guarded. Smart.
But even he didn’t see it coming.

This conversation will help you understand why we ignore warning signs—and how to finally start seeing them clearly.

✔️ What “meeting their representative” really means
✔️ Why red flags are easy to miss in the beginning
✔️ How trauma affects who you choose to date
✔️ The difference between “nice” and “kind”
✔️ How to trust your gut again

You’re not crazy. You just weren’t taught what to look for.
