A popular narrative that successful, beautiful, kind, full-package single women in their 30s often hear is that their standards are too high.
I know because they come into sessions with me saying it, questioning themselves and, in the process, questioning their worth.
But more often than not, I don’t think their standards are too high.
I think they’re simply focused on the wrong standards.
A woman who doesn’t fully know her worth will often prioritise the man who looks good on paper over the man who actually treats her well.
The chemistry.
The status.
The lifestyle.
The potential.
Instead of asking…
Does he make me feel emotionally safe?
Does he communicate consistently?
Does he respect my boundaries?
Does he bring peace instead of confusion?
Does he choose me with his actions, not just his words?
Does he make my life better?
So yes, keep your standards high, ladies.
Just make sure they’re high in the ways that actually matter.
Prioritise the man who will…
• Celebrate your wins.
• Speak to you with kindness.
• Make you feel emotionally safe.
• Repair after conflict.
• Keep his word.
• Make you laugh and also hold space when you cry.
• Bring you peace, not anxiety.
• Love you in a way that feels like home, not something you constantly have to earn.
Because often our girl friends will do that for us but we forget to hold those same standards for our partners.
