Pop-Up 07: Cuffing Season

“I want you to be fully human and experience life as safely, fully, and wisely as possible while getting your needs met and being available for others to do the same too.”
Intro:
Welcome as we kick off our short series titled "In My Feels” to get us through the fall, a series designed to keep you updated on all things Match Marry Mate™ while we're between seasons. As we dive into this fall season, we explore the phenomenon known as "Cuffing Season" and its impact on dating and relationships. Why do people tend to start relationships during this time? We examine both the cultural trends and some science behind them.
I also share my approach to this season, focusing on communication, intentionality, and self-care. I leave you with five essential things to remember during this time, from communication to managing expectations.
I hope you will join me on this journey through the fall as we discuss matters of the heart, connection, and companionship. Stay tuned for more episodes, and remember, love, light, and relationships are what we're all about on The Match Marry Mate™  Show! Have a Secret Story you want to share with me? I invite you to drop your truth for the next Secret Story episode!
