This week’s Dating Made Simple takes a lighter but honest look at a heavy topic: the loneliness epidemic. We break down what loneliness really is, how it differs from isolation, and why half of U.S. adults say they’ve struggled with it. You’ll hear surprising stats, personal stories, and the very real health risks tied to chronic disconnection—heart disease, stroke, even depression. But it’s not all gloom: We share practical, everyday ideas for building connection, from simple check-ins with friends, trying new groups and activities, and of course, just going out to dinner. Tune in for laughs, insight, and encouragement to get reconnected.

In this episode, relationship coach Kristi Reeves dives into the power of vulnerability in dating and relationships. She shares why true connection starts with the courage to be open, honest, and real—first with yourself, and then with others. Kristi explains that healing and healthy love aren’t about convincing someone you’re lovable, but about showing up authentically so connection can grow naturally. From self-work to emotional openness, she offers practical insights on how to break down walls, embrace vulnerability, and create the kind of relationships that feel safe, meaningful, and deeply fulfilling.
