Ladies, let’s talk about something we all feel but don’t often admit—the pressure to rush in our dating lives. In this episode of The Bougie Dating Coach Podcast, Stacey Bessard is here to remind you that it’s okay to take your time. Using the story of Mary and Martha from the Bible, Stacey breaks down why rushing through life and dating like Martha won’t get you closer to what you want. Instead, she encourages you to lean into the peace, presence, and purpose of being like Mary. This episode is packed with relatable truths every successful, single Christian woman needs to hear: You’re not desperate. You’re worth so much more than settling. The inventory isn’t running out. The right person for you is still out there. All you need is one. It’s not about quantity but about finding someone who truly aligns. Plus, Stacey gives real-life tips on what to do while you’re taking your time—like being present for yourself, taking intentional breaks, and surrounding yourself with environments that match the life you’re building. If you’ve ever felt like time isn’t on your side, this episode is your reminder to slow down, trust God’s timing, and focus on showing up as the best version of YOU. Tune in for the encouragement you need to keep dating boldly and unapologetically!
