<p>Hey loves, welcome back to <em>The Brave Table</em>! 💫 Today, we’re diving into one of the most requested topics: <strong>dating in the modern world</strong>. And guess what? You’re in for a treat. I’m sitting down with the <em>OG Dating Coach</em> himself, <strong>Evan Marc Katz</strong>—the world’s first dating coach and a bestselling author.

He spills the tea on compatibility, courtship, and how to build a "dating practice" that works. Plus, we deep-dive into the five C’s you need for a thriving relationship: <strong>Character, Kindness, Consistency, Communication, and Connection</strong>.
