#brunchtalk: Dishing About Surprise Run-Ins with Dateable Listeners, The Actual Definition of Dating Intentionally & Saying Goodbye to The Wrong People
With all the buzz about dating intentionally...what does it even mean?

We talk about surprise run-ins with Dateable listeners, if it's even possible to use dating apps intentionally, and why it may be more intentional to get rid of people who you know AREN'T the real deal instead of try to set up intentional boundaries with them.

#brunchtalk: Dishing About Our Biggest Fears In a Relationship, How Many People To Date at Once, And What To Do When You're Unsure About Someone
There's so much to unpack this week as we chat about everything from air fryers to Mark Zuckerberg's mid-life crisis.

We're going in deep as we dissect when to disclose you're sleeping with others, when to double down on someone versus playing the field, and what to do when you're still unsure and feeling lukewarm about someone.

Quickie w/ Julie: The Magic of The Middle
It's so hard to not be focused on the milestones, but Julie had a reality check recently that she wanted to share on this quickie with you. Because as Dr. Laurie Santos discussed in this week's episode the arrival fallacy is exactly that – a fallacy.
