Where did the idea of “happily ever after” or “finding the one” even come from in the first place? Is it even obtainable? What are some of the common myths that people buy into regarding dating and relationships? What are some of the ways people can break free from those dating myths and create the dating or love life they truly desire?

About our guest: Damona Hoffman is a celebrity dating coach, host of the award-winning podcast Dates & Mates, and the official love expert of The Drew Barrymore Show. She has written dating columns for the LA Times and the Washington Post and worked as a dating expert and spokesperson for top dating apps including OkCupid, Match, and Bumble. She lives in Los Angeles with her husband and two children.

In F The Fairytale, Damona Hoffman dismantles the dating habits and beliefs that have been leading us astray—those notions of instant chemistry and the relentless quest for "the One." She points out how modern daters are clinging to outdated rulebooks that served our grandparents and parents well but have failed to adapt to the seismic shifts in technology and gender equality. Like many, I too once subscribed to these outdated ideals. The consequence? We find ourselves in an era with more single adults in the U.S. than ever before.

But Damona empowers readers to shatter these limiting dating myths and seize control of their own love narratives. This isn't just another dating book; it's a refreshing exploration of how factors like race, class, and gender intersect with our dating lives.

Dr. Drew Pinsky calls the book "entertaining, smart, and fun; the reader will find something here that speaks to them and enhances their dating lives."
