This week we have the gift of being joined by one of our best friends, Dakota Adan. A poet, author, and artist, Dakota provides such a beautiful lens on life and how to discover meaning in our every day. In this conversation we talk about his journey of navigating the world as an artist, meeting the love of his life, and the moments that defined our friendship. He shares the ins and outs of being a 'professional' creator - from staying grounded in Hollywood to monetizing your passions. He also shares the lessons he's learned from love and overcoming adversity.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
