The majority of this episode was originally recorded with an anonymous guest in February, 2021. After hearing the devastating news of SCOTUS overturning Roe v. Wade, she and I jumped back on the mic to share how we are feeling, how this impacts someone who has previously gotten an abortion, what we can do to help, and how it feels to be a woman in 2022. Then, we replay the original episode where she shares the story of her unplanned pregnancy her senior year of college. She shares the moment she found out, how her friends and family helped her through it, why she decided to not tell the guy she had slept with, the trauma she's dealt with as a result of the unplanned pregnancy, how you can support your friends who are going through something similar, and more.  Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/seeing-other-people/donations Learn more about your ad choices.

UNFILTERED: I'm joined by a 40 year old woman who shares the pressure she's felt over the last twenty years to find her person, get married, and settle down. We discuss how our society makes us feel like we're running out of time and have to meet someone by a certain age, what it's like to see your friends get into relationships and move forward with their partners while you're not, and how to accept that some relationships aren't right, no matter how much we sometimes wish they were. We hear how she's learned to get comfortable with the idea of being alone and appreciate the amazing life she's built for herself.  Learn more about your ad choices.

I’m joined by Helena Rosen (Former SOP Guest “27 Years Single”) and Laurina Sachetti, hosts of Funny Girls podcast. Helena reflects on being in her first relationship at 28 years old, how she met someone shortly after accepting that being single, and how the conversation went when she told her now-boyfriend that she had never been in a relationship. We hear about Laurina’s bizarre dating experiences including learning her date had a kid from his phone background, and being taken to a funeral on a date. She shares how she wen from being the bitter single person to embracing her singlehood, and we hear about her experience being guarded after an unhealthy relationship and how she’s turned that experience around to help her filter out who isn’t right for her.

I'm joined by a woman who tells us about her partner asking to remove the "boyfriend/girlfriend" label just weeks after he asked her to be his girlfriend.

I’m joined by Jared Freid and Jordana Abraham, hosts of Betches’ U Up? Podcast', or as I like to call them, the mom and dad of modern dating. We discuss whether or not there’s truth to the most common dating phrases we hear including “you’ll find someone when you stop looking,” “there’s someone out there for everyone,” “you have to love yourself before you can be loved by someone else,” and more. Later, we answer listener questions about vulnerability, overcoming nervousness and date anxiety, determining your dealbreakers (and sticking to them), if women wrongly read into situations like meeting the friends, and how to make sure you’re on the same page as the person you’re dating.Get your tickets for the U Up?

I’m joined by a 30-year-old man from Washington, D.C. who shares what his dating journey has been like since it began when around 27 years old. We hear about how being bullied in school ultimately led to anxiety and self-confidence issues that held him back from putting himself out there in the dating world. He shares what he learned from working with a dating coach and a matchmaker, the feedback he received from his dates that helped him improve, how he navigates not being able to use his phone during the day due to his government job, and how he’s developed a growth mindset and tries to be upfront and work on his issues head-on.Schedule an Emotional Support Human session or a Dating App Profile Revamp with me at direct.me/ilanadunn.Overcome your dating anxiety just like I did by taking Mindset Wellness CBD's Happy gummy before a date and Calm gummy after!

I’m joined by Molly Fedick, my former Hinge colleague and the founder of Buzzkill Wines, an Alcohol-Removed Sauvignon Blanc. Molly shares sober dating tips and reads a hilariously relatable excerpt from her high school journal. Later, Molly opens up about how going to rehab helped her rediscover herself and reevaluate her values, how therapy helped her realize she had been going for the wrong types of people, why we’re way too quick to judge someone, how she approaches meeting people IRL instead of on dating apps, and how she’s setting herself up to live the life she wants and have children even if she doesn’t meet someone to do it with.

On this Unfiltered, I'm joined by a woman who was raised Mormon. She shares how she lived by the rules, was extremely obedient and felt promised that if she did everything right and married a "good guy," she would be blessed. After 11 years of marriage, she learned that her husband had been unfaithful nearly their entire marriage and was a sex addict. Fast forward and she's exploring the dating world for the first time while reevaluating her faith, her values, and her beliefs about sex. Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/seeing-other-people/donations Learn more about your ad choices.
