Seeing Other People

Mariah Grippo, TikTok’s dating queen and founding member of Little Words Project, joins the show to talk about the struggles she and many other women face in their dating lives. We discuss how draining it feels to continue to form connections and relationships with people only to be told they’re “not ready,” questioning if there’s something wrong with us when it keeps not working out, staying with people for too long, making purpose out of the situations that break us, and finding a partner who unconditionally supports your passions.

I’m joined by a listener who shares the story of the relationship and breakup that changed her and set her years back on the timeline she had imagined for herself. We discuss going from that high of being so in love with someone who loves you back to breaking up and feeling the lowest you’ve ever felt in your life, what it felt like to see her ex in a relationship with someone new shortly after their breakup and the fear and anxiety surrounding falling for the wrong person again that is holding her back in her dating life.

In this episode, I’m joined by Whitney Goodman, LMFT, author of Toxic Positivity, and the brains behind the popular account @sitwithwhit. We discuss how our culture doesn’t allow for negativity and has become a competition for who can seem happiest and most positive, how toxic positivity invalidates people struggling with relationship problems, how we can better support our friends and loved ones who are unhappy with their timelines and their singlehood, the overuse of the term “gaslighting,” and how we can learn to accept our negative emotions.Book a Dating App Profile Revamp or Emotional Support Human session with me! Overcome your dating anxiety just like I did by taking Mindset Wellness CBD's Happy gummy before a date and Calm gummy after!

I sit down with my friend Sammy who shares her highest highs and lowest lows throughout her dating journey. We hear about a six-year relationship that ended because he was having doubts, going through her “hoe phase” in her mid-twenties, how she’s managed to stay friends with most of her exes, finding out her most recent relationship ex was in a relationship with someone else weeks after they called it quits, and what she says when someone says they feel more of a friend vibe after a date.

Jake and I answer listener questions about our relationship and reflect on how we got to where we are now as a couple. We discuss what Jake thinks of dating rules, the honeymoon phase and if we’re still in it, the biggest challenges we've faced together, how we knew we wanted to commit to each other, who said “I love you” first, if we ever run out of things to talk about, the surprising perks of dating someone who’s never been in a relationship before and more.

On this episode I’m joined by Kate Steinberg, the internet’s early 2000s queen who met her fiancé Chad on HBO Max’s “12 Dates of Christmas.” Kate shares how she remained calm and confident while knowing Chad was going on dates with other women and the benefits of not sharing every detail of your dating life with friends.

On today's episode I talk to a woman who reached out to me after listening to the unfiltered episode called "Married at 25, Divorced at 26, Dating at 27". She wanted to share her story of being on the other side of that situation, dating someone who was married at 25 and divorced at 27. She shares how their relationship unfolded, what her initial reaction was to him sharing that he was divorced and how his previous marriage has impacted their current relationship.
