Summary

On this electrifying episode of Women of Impact, host Lisa Bilyeu welcomes the powerhouse media personality and dating expert Kendra G, known for her refreshingly real perspective on relationships and her popular dating show. Kendra G has been a leading voice in reshaping how women view their value in the dating world—and she’s here to deliver some truth bombs that might just change how you approach love, men, and your own self-worth. In Part 1 of this special two-part conversation, Kendra and Lisa break down the modern dating landscape, from the rise of social media and shifting power dynamics to the stark realities of “preferences” and “worth.” Kendra unpacks why so many strong, successful women still find themselves single, the double standards between men’s and women’s dating standards, and why knowing your non-negotiables is essential. Prepare for an unfiltered, empowering deep dive into why your worth is never tied to anyone else’s preference, and the mindset shifts you need to thrive—single or partnered.
