Did you ever wonder how feminist dating principles could make your marriage stronger? In this episode of The Marriage Life Coach Podcast, you’re going to find out. I was joined by Lily Womble, my favorite dating coach and founder of Date Brazen, a coaching framework that’s helped hundreds of women around the world build a clear path to the best relationships of their lives with unconventional, feminist-led coaching. I got a sneak peek of Lily’s upcoming book, “Thank You, More Please” which will be released in June. We talked all about the concepts she explores inside and how it serves as a feminist guide to breaking dumb dating rules. You know I could talk about navigating the patriarchy all day, so this was a super fun conversation and you’re going to love Lily’s insights. Just a few things we talked about included: - How women are taught to people-please and caregive in order to survive - What internalized patriarchy is and how it affects your relationships - Why I believe dating doesn’t end just because you’re married - How to recast your spouse in a role that you both value - My take on why it feels like women have to do “all” the emotional labor  You don’t settle in any other area of your life, so let’s not start with your most important relationship. This episode will give you the tools to envision and create a partnership you want to be in. Find full show notes, transcript, and links to resources at http://maggiereyes.com/podcast/159
