Is dating today just love—or a luxury lifestyle subscription? In this episode, Michele pulls back the curtain on modern dating’s pricey expectations: fly-outs, five-star steakhouse “standards,” and the influencer culture fueling entitlement.
With a mix of cultural critique, listener stories, and straight-up advice, she unpacks where healthy boundaries end and unrealistic demands begin. And her message is clear: before you look for a sponsor, make sure you’re sponsoring yourself.
If you’ve ever wondered whether “buy me a bag” counts as romance or just retail, this is the conversation you don’t want to miss.
