Hi everybody, welcome to the women's dating and confidence podcast. My name is Amber, and today we're going to be talking about not allowing outside pressure to influence your dating decisions.

Before we get into that, I want to share my free guide called copy and paste texts for when he's pulling away or acting flaky.

The link for that is going to be in the show notes below.

It's an eight-page guide with everything you need to know about the different situations where somebody might be pulling

away and how you can best communicate with that person. Also, if you haven't already gotten on the

wait list for the next coaching program enrollment opening in April for my program called

From Dating to Exclusive, make sure that you join the wait list because that way

you can get an early bird discount, early enrollment, so you can secure your spot. Plus, it's just

an amazing, helpful program with so much support and so many tools that will help you create

the best dating experience possible and navigate that journey from dating to exclusive.

There are five skills that take you from dating to exclusive. You don't have to be perfect in all

of these skills, but you do need to build your confidence and capability with all of these skills.

The first one is creating dates on demand. The second one is connecting deeply and

playfully on those dates. The third one is guiding the connections towards exclusivity. The fourth

is speaking up, creating boundaries and communicating. And the fifth is having fun during the process.

You may be confident in some of these areas, but if any of these are missing, you will have a challenge going from dating to exclusive.

So the program is designed to build you up in each of these areas and showing you exactly step by step how to do that.

So don't worry if you feel overwhelmed hearing all of that,

or if there are multiple areas where you don't feel fully confident, that's what the program is for.

Okay, so today I want to talk to you about the pressures that lead us to ending up in the wrong relationship.

The one where we kind of always felt it wasn't really right,

but we were pressured to maintain that relationship,
