Ghosts of Dates Past

In today's episode, Leslie and I share a lot of commonalties in our early dating years. We both didn't have our first kiss until 16 years old (gasp)! Through our shared understanding of dating later in life, we discuss how we navigated being single when our friends were in relationships, our experiences on the dating apps, whether or not you should put all your eggs in one basket, as well as dating burnout.

Leslie Grant is a New York-born, San Diego-raised, Los Angeles resident who's now lived and dated in LA for over 13 years. Her podcast, Interstates & Heartbreak, provides the honest, unglamorous perspective of what it's like to date in the city of Los Angeles when you don't have a blue check mark next to your name, or enough social clout to get onto Raya. @interstatesandheartbreak

In this episode, Kevin and I sit down to have a beautifully authentic conversation about the addictive qualities of familiarity, how to change your behavior, the struggles that all 20s and 30 somethings experience, and more. We talk about how to focus on your confidence, why communication in relationships is so important, what the hardest step to changing really is.

Kevin Nahai is a public speaker and personal coach. Diagnosed with an excruciating, incurable stomach disease at 19, he quickly fell into a dark spiral of depression, anxiety, and severe anorexia. With no direction, failed health, and an abysmal love life, it took him 7+ years of therapy and coaching to begin to change his thoughts and actions, overcome his challenges, and create the results he wanted to see. He discovered how to live an extraordinary life; one made of authentic confidence, fulfillment, and beautiful relationships. Now he teaches others how to do the same. @kevinnahai

In this episode, Stevie and I discuss how impactful short dating experiences can be on our lives. We discuss the power of saying no both to a person and to a date in the moment. We also talk about romanticizing the person we are on a date with and how to take a pause before getting ahead of yourself idealizing a 'could be' relationship.

Stevie Bowen is a Fashion Director, and Founder & Author of The City of Dating. A Memoir turned dating community platform dedicated to helping others date to find themselves, not their soulmates. After another failed situationship, Stevie took to writing to work through her dating journey. She wrote thank-you letters to past dates, relationships, and one-night-stands, finding lessons and self-love at the core of them all. Instead of sending the letters to her exes, she published them instead and built The City of Dating to help fellow daters find lessons on their own dating journey.

Stevie believes every date is an opportunity to grow. She is dedicated to encouraging people to date for themselves and to embrace the power of being alone in between all those dates. You can find her book The City of Dating, A Memoir on www.thecityofdating.com and everywhere ebooks are available. You can connect with the community @thecityofdating on Instagram!
