Living Well (or Trying To) with Janet

Episode 42: The 30-Day Relationship Incubator: Reimagining Modern Dating with Yue Xu


Listen Later

Dating in 2025? Whew. It’s a whole thing. From app fatigue to ghosting to unsolicited advice from well-meaning friends—how do you actually date well these days, especially if you're emotionally exhausted but still believe in love? This week on Living Well (or Trying To), I sit down with Yue Xu, LA-based dating expert and co-host of the Dateable podcast, to talk about her personal approach to finding love after heartbreak. We get into everything from “energy work” and Tai Chi grandmas to Yue’s concept of a “30-day relationship incubator” and why intentionality and privacy can radically transform how we date. Whether you’re single, partnered, or somewhere in between, this one’s for anyone navigating relationships while trying to stay sane and grounded.

✨ Mentioned in this episode:

  • Yue’s new book How to Be Dateable

  • Earth vs. cosmic energy (and why you want both)

  • The love crisis no one’s talking about—but everyone’s feeling

    What’s your current dating energy? Let’s talk about it.
