Summary

Carli, a former Unfiltered guest, is back to share her recent experience dealing with "the shift" AKA a sudden communication change in the early stages of dating someone new. She shares how she's approached the shift by managing her anxiety, being upfront, and communicating her needs. We share advice on how to approach dating when things start to feel off, and we answer listener questions about making dates feel less like interviews, what to do when they say they need space, and how much someone's physique matters in a relationship.
