  • 9. Love is Blind: Dating Outside of Your Race

    Hey, bestie! Today, let's chat about race and dating/interracial dating. It's a taboo topic, yes...but why, especially in 2023? In this episode, I want you to ask yourself if you are truly open-minded when it comes to dating.

    This conversation was inspired by watching Love is Blind, Season 5, which led me to start watching Season 1.

    To know me is to know that I don't watch a ton of TV, but maybe I should start because it gave me the content for today's episode. I hope you enjoy! ILYSM.
