Why Modern Dating Is For The Birds

What does finding love look like in your 30s? From Tinder and Hinge to Bumble and Christian Mingle, modern dating isn’t for the meek. Jaretta understands this all too well. She’s been in this “wasteland” trying to find a partner, while Satta has been married for the past nine years and completely out of the dating game. But that doesn’t mean she hasn’t had her own dating disasters.

Join us, Jaretta and Satta, as we discuss not only the pitfalls of trying to find a partner but also:

• Social Media
• Actively dating
• Me Season
• Christian Dating
• Dating boundaries
• Dating apps
• Burner phones
• Manosphere
• Integrity
• Something New
• Christian Mingle
• Bad dates
• Celibacy
• Married at First Sight
