Hey my friends, it's Kate Worman here and I just want to welcome you to week three of our mini series all about navigating the beginning stages of dating.

The first week of this mini series we talked about a guideline for stage one dating and then last week we talked about the art of intentionality and how you can be intentional and four main areas at the beginning of dating.

Intentional in your ask, intentional in your questions,

intentional in your comments on the date,

and intentional in your follow-up.

Now today we're gonna talk about how to not be awkward in this beginning stage of dating,

which also includes knowing the best kind of dates to do at the beginning of the dating process.

But before we get into the content of the episode, I want to share with you guys that

we're actually able to do these mini-series because of our incredible sponsor, Faithful Counseling.

Faithful Counseling is a faith-based online therapy network that falls under the incredible

Better Help umbrella.

I am such a fan of therapy, you guys probably know that already, but I especially also love

therapy that incorporates Christian principles and spiritual things and just prayer.

It's so awesome to have a Christian therapist.

Getting connected with an affordable Christian therapist is really easy through faithful counseling.

All you got to do is fill out a form about yourself and your needs and your past,

and then faithful counseling will connect you with a fellow believer within their large network of licensed professional

counselors. Once you're connected to a therapist you can start communicating with

them in under 24 hours. You can log into your account at any time you can shoot

them over a message especially if you have a question about something that just came up, and you will get a timely and thoughtful response back from your counselor.

You can also schedule weekly video or phone sessions, and you can do all of it from the comfort of your home in your most comfy attire, I might add.

I've been doing virtual therapy for about a year now and you guys I love it it is great another huge
