About this listen

In this episode of A Woman’s Playbook for Dating, we’re swapping player positions for field positions — breaking down what different parts of the football field represent in the world of dating. Whether you’re stuck at the 50-yard line in the “talking stage,” pacing the sideline in a situationship, or one yard from the end zone wondering what’s taking so long, this episode is your map for knowing where you stand — and how to move forward with clarity and confidence.Because dating isn’t just about who you're seeing — it’s about where you’re standing on the field. And today, we’re calling plays that get you into the end zone.

What You’ll Learn:
  • How the 50-yard line represents early-stage situations that feel like more than they are

  • Why the Red Zone can be a trap if you confuse proximity with progress

  • What to do when you're stuck at the Goal Line with someone scared of commitment

  • How the Sideline shows up in situationships — and how to get off the bench

  • Why the End Line isn't failure, but an opportunity to reset

  • How hitting the Goal Posts (small wins, strong boundaries) builds momentum

Power Takeaways:
  • If you don’t know where you stand on the field, you can’t move the ball forward.

  • Don’t confuse activity with progress — proximity to the end zone isn’t the same as scoring.

  • Walking away from the wrong field is often the strongest play you’ll ever call.

  • Field goals count too — protect your peace, enforce your standards, and celebrate every step.
