Episode 273
Wednesday, 3 December, 2025
What if Catholic dating wasn’t just swiping, overthinking, and feeling like “there’s no one out there”… but real conversations, real formation, and real freedom?In this episode of The Catholic Coaching Podcast, Matt & Erin sit down with Taylor O’Brien, founder of Candid Dating — a Catholic speed dating app and events apostolate that’s exploding in popularity (including huge events at SEEK).Taylor shares the story of her broken engagement, the season of deep healing with Jesus in adoration, and how the Lord led her into creating Candid: a space where Catholic singles can actually talk, get “reps” with the opposite sex, and grow in human formation, not just chase a ring.Together we talk about: • Why Catholic speed dating is often less pressure than apps or traditional dates • The lies Catholic singles believe ( “God will just drop my spouse in front of me,” “I can’t say yes to a first date unless I know I’d say yes to a second,” “I’m responsible for their feelings if I say no” ) • How locus of control & mindset coaching help you stop carrying what isn’t yours • Why dating is about authentic encounter, not shopping for a spouse • How God uses the “waiting” and even heartbreak as powerful formationWe also share what we’re doing together at SEEK in Columbus: • A shared Candid + Metanoia Catholic booth • Free temperament assessments (with buttons 👀) so you can better understand your wiring in dating • On-site Catholic mindset coaches to help you prep for the Candid speed dating event • Practical help to show up free, peaceful, and yourself—instead of desperate, shut down, or overthinkingWhether you’re: • A Catholic single coming to SEEK • Discernment-tired and wondering if your “picker is broken” • Or just curious what healthy Catholic dating can look like……this conversation will give you hope, language, and tools to step into dating with more freedom, courage, and trust in God.► Learn more about Candid Dating and upcoming events: https://www.candiddating.net/Send us a textSupport the show____________________ ► Make sure to SUBSCRIBE to the Metanoia Catholic YouTube Channel!► Find out your temperament: Take the Free Quiz► Take the Quiz: WHAT TYPE OF COACH ARE YOU?► GET THE DAILY SEVEN JOURNAL!This interactive journal will help you transform your life from the inside out by teaching you how to grow in gratitude, set healthy goals, and gain mastery over your thoughts.► JOIN THE ACADEMY!Your online resource of classes, tools, and community to ramp up your growth and really change your life.
