Dating Yapps

It’s the season finale of Dating Yapps, and I’m going out with a bang—naturally! In this episode, my beautiful friend Amanda is back for a juicy, reflective, and laughter-filled wrap-up of the season. We’re interviewing each other and talking all things dating and relationships: divorce, healing, friendship, and even dipping a toe (or two) into the world of non-monogamy.

We get real about what it’s like to be single and thriving in your 40s, the power of good communication, and how sex and intimacy don’t have to be taboo—especially when you’ve got the right people around you. From the highs to the heartbreaks, we’re celebrating the wild, messy, magical ride of modern love. 💫

In this episode, I’m yapping with Carly and Hannah, the hilarious and wise voices behind the podcast My Therapist Hates You. We dive into allll the juicy overlaps between dating and mental health—because honestly, if you’ve ever cried in your therapist’s office about a situationship… you’re not alone.

We chat about how therapy has shaped our relationships, what red flags we now spot a mile away, our personal coping styles, and the wild ride of launching a podcast. Carly and Hannah also share how they balance mental health awareness with keeping things light, real, and relatable.

Whether you're deep in the dating trenches or just here for some emotionally intelligent laughs, this one’s for you.

In this episode, I’m getting personal and talking all about my decision to be child-free by choice. It’s something that took a lot of reflection, honesty, and unlearning, and I’m sharing how I got there—from thinking I’d definitely have kids one day to realizing… maybe that’s just not for me. I talk about the ups, the downs, the guilt, the freedom, and how eldest daughter syndrome definitely played a role.

I also get into what it means to live a full, joyful life on your own terms—and why millennials are out here redefining what family and fulfillment look like. Whether you’re on the fence, firmly child-free, or just curious, this one’s for you.

In this week’s episode I’m flying solo and getting a little woo-woo about one important topic: compassion — for ourselves, for others, and yes, even for that situationship who ghosted you.

But first, I share what’s been on my heart lately, from my newfound love and respect for Lady Gaga, to my new appreciation for rave culture and fully living in the moment. Then I dive into what compassion actually means (spoiler: it’s not just being nice) and why it’s such a game-changer when it comes to dating.

Whether you're healing from heartbreak or just trying to be a little gentler with yourself while navigating the apps, this episode is your reminder that soft is strong.
