    Episode 11: Navigating the Playing Field
    Jul 6 2025
    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.

  • Episode 9: Let Them! Playing the Game

    Episode 9: Let Them! Playing the Game
    Jun 24 2025
    In this episode, we’re calling one of the most powerful plays in your dating playbook: combining the viral “Let Them” theory with the strength of putting yourself first. If you’ve been chasing love, second-guessing your worth, or lowering your standards to keep someone on the roster — it’s time to get back in control. Chavonne breaks down what it means to lead with confidence, protect your peace like a solid defense, and stop running after teammates who won’t show up. Because in dating, just like football, you don’t chase the ball — you call the play.

    What You’ll Learn:
    • Why “letting them” reveal themselves is your greatest filter
    • How putting yourself first is a winning defensive move
    • The difference between confidence and control
    • Why rejection is a turnover, not a tragedy
    • How to lead the game without losing yourself
    Key Quotes:
    • “You’re not sitting on the sidelines — you’re choosing to play smart.”
    • “Let them sit on the bench if they’re not ready for the field.”
    • “You don’t fall apart. You fall back — and let them show you they were never the right teammate.”
    Power Takeaways:
    • Stop trying to intercept red flags — let them unfold
    • Boundaries protect your peace, not your loneliness
    • Lead the relationship with clarity and calm, not desperation
    • You don’t have to prove your worth — just protect it

    It’s week four and when it comes to dating, this is one of my favorite things to think about when establishing yourself as an elite player on and off the field. And a “Women’s Playbook to Dating” wouldn’t be a playbook if we didn’t talk about our uniforms, logos and becoming your own publicist.

    We’re just about ready for pre-season, but before we step onto the field, we need to suit up and show up looking RIGHT!
