“You Don’t Need A Man… You Need Healing” Dr. Sarah Fontenot Gets REAL

Some conversations don’t just sound good… they shift you.

In this episode of The Love You Moore Show, I sat down with Dr. Sarah Fontenot (straight outta Saskatchewan, Canada) and we went all the way in on what’s REALLY breaking relationships in 2025.

We talked about:
• why so many people choose partners out of pressure, trauma, and fear
• the difference between high-earning and high-value
• how women can communicate needs without going to war
• why men feel like they have to stay “tough” and how that’s costing us
• and what it actually looks like to build peace, alignment, and a relationship rooted in God

And listen… when she broke down the “logic vs emotion” gap, and how masculinity and femininity collide when we don’t know how to repair conflict? Whew. It got REAL in that room.

If you’re dating, married, divorced, healing, or trying to do it right this time—this one is for you.
