Dating is data collection. Every conversation, every red flag, every moment of joy—it’s all information that helps you understand what you want, what you need, and who you’re becoming in the process. In this episode, Michele + River unpack how to shift from high-stakes pressure to curiosity, explore the four types of “dating data,” and reframe rejection as just one more piece of the puzzle. Tune in and learn how to turn your dating life into a practice of discovery. 

Here’s the thing: dating isn’t about finding ‘the one’ on the first try—it’s about gathering information. Think of it like research, not a final exam. Every date, every conversation, every little interaction is a piece of data that tells you something—about them, but also about yourself.
