| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to the clearer, not louder podcast. My name is Beatrice and I'm your host. |
| 0:07.4 | And this week, as I'm sure you could probably tell by the title, we are continuing with part two of |
| 0:14.5 | the love is not enough series. I don't know how long this thing is going to go on, but I have a feeling |
| 0:19.9 | we might even have a part |
| 0:20.9 | three because there is just so much to talk about when it comes to this topic. And so much is at |
| 0:27.6 | stake. So much is at stake when it comes to relationships when it comes to marriage. It's only right. |
| 0:34.1 | It's only right we have these conversations. So if you didn't listen to last week's episode, let me catch you up. |
| 0:40.1 | So I essentially spoke about the things that I learned to look for that I, to this day, would continue to look for. |
| 0:49.4 | And I shared sort of my insight as to why it's important to consider those things. |

| 1:20.1 | critically about what actually matters long term, you know, if a relationship were to progress |
| 1:26.7 | into marriage. |
| 1:28.2 | And that's where this week comes in. |
| 1:30.7 | This week I'm speaking to those things, those critical, crucial things I didn't consider |
| 1:37.3 | before that I now consider and I evaluate heavily. |
| 1:43.4 | Things that I've heard from women that they don't discover until |
| 1:48.4 | years later in marriage or post-divorce or after having kids. So this, I consider this a more |
| 1:59.6 | robust and I would dare to say a more mature look at dating. |
| 2:05.6 | These are not necessarily sexy things that you think about when you're 24 and you're just like, oh, he's so cute. |
