Dating apps, ghosting, and goat screams—oh my! In this solo episode, I’m opening up about what it’s really like to date in today’s swipe-left world. From personal heartbreak to the highs of hopeful banter, I share why modern dating often feels like an emotional rollercoaster and what I’ve learned about resilience, timing, and holding on to the magic of love. If you’ve ever felt like giving up, questioning your worth, or wondering if the spark is still out there—this one’s for you. Let’s get honest, let’s laugh, and let’s keep believing in the magic.
Topics Covered:
- How a soap opera obsession shaped my ideas of love.
- A vulnerable story of my first heartbreak and its long-lasting impact.
- What online dating looked like in the early days vs. now.
- A recent experience that triggered a wave of dating frustration.
- The grief and confusion that comes with ghosting.
- Cultural expectations around singleness and silent shame.
- How to reframe hopelessness and re-center your own joy.
- Practical mindset shifts for dating without losing your mind.
