In this powerful finale of the PREPARE for Love series, Elana shares how to set healthy boundaries in dating—so you don’t lose yourself in the name of love.

• The 5 must-have boundaries for dating with wisdom
• Real examples of what emotional, physical, digital, social, and financial boundaries sound like.
