What happens when you have to choose between love and a career opportunity on opposite sides of the globe? Join me as I spill the details of navigating the tricky waters of long-distance relationships and career decisions, all while sharing some of my most hilarious and cringe-worthy dating stories. From debating whether to pursue a job in the Philippines or stay for a budding romance in Calgary, to the emotional chat that led to going exclusive with my ex, you'll hear about the highs and lows of balancing heart and ambition.

Ever texted someone for a month, only to find they’re allergic to meeting in person? That's what happened with Whitney, a digital romance that was full of emotional texting but hit a roadblock at the physical meetup stage. Tune in for a tale of hope and surprise plot twists, like a contrived emergency before a first date.
