Most of us think readiness means having a stable job, moving out of our parents’ home, or feeling financially secure. And while those things matter, they only scratch the surface. What if the deeper signs you are not ready are less obvious, but quietly showing up in how you think, react, and relate?

After years of matchmaking and nearly six years of marriage ourselves, we have seen subtle patterns that reveal more than any checklist. In this episode, we share five overlooked signs of unpreparedness that could be holding you back. This one might challenge you, but in the best possible way. Curious? Press ‘Download’.
