  • In this episode, Franny continues last episode’s conversation about keeping it real when it comes to dating. She breaks down the three levels of authenticity: knowing yourself, owning your true personality, and making sure your actions line up with who you really are. Franny also points out that being genuine isn’t just key to finding the right partner—it’s also how you can experience more joy and fulfillment in your life.

    Key points:

    - Dating norms have shifted, and the old ways of thinking no longer match the complexity of modern relationships.

    - Authenticity is essential to finding compatibility with a partner. When you know and embrace who you are, it opens the door for real connections built on shared values and perspectives.

    - Authenticity has levels and is the key to a happier life

    - Self-compassion is the foundation for self-love and acceptance, which are the building blocks of healthy relationships.

  • Hey everyone! Welcome back to season six of the Dear Franny Podcast! 🎉 I’m Franny, and I’m super excited to kick off this new season with you all. Today, I’m diving into my journey of writing my first book, ‘How to Find True Love,’ and I’ve got some juicy insights to share.

    We’re chatting about why being your authentic self is a game-changer in dating and relationships. It’s all about moving from a fear-based mindset to one that’s rooted in love. Trust me, embracing this shift can make a world of difference!

    I’ll be talking about the whole love journey—why it’s important to enjoy the ride and make choices that really align with what you want. No more reacting out of fear or feeling pressured by society. It’s about being true to yourself and making decisions that reflect your desires and values.

    Plus, I’m giving you a sneak peek into our next episode, where we’ll dig even deeper into the different layers of authenticity.

    Here are some of the highlights:

    - “Dating apps have taken so much of people’s romantic agency away from them.”

    - “Love is a verb, and choosing love is all about growth and learning.”

    - “Dating from a place of love versus fear leads to better outcomes.”

    Can’t wait to dive in with you all. Let’s make this season the best one yet! 💖
