This week on Cohosts for Life, we talk about being in a season where friends are moving out of the city, buying homes, and stepping into new phases of life, while we’re still in New York figuring out what comes next. We unpack how friendships change with distance, how to stay close when you no longer share a zip code, and the mix of sadness and excitement that comes with watching people move on. Plus, adult hobbies, major gratitude, a big career update for Ilana, race sign-ups chaos, and more.

TW: this episode includes discussion of disordered eating and body image. Please take care while listening. I’m joined by Alana Paris, who opens up about her experience with GLP-1 medications and how the changes to her body have deeply impacted her confidence, dating life, and relationships. We talk about food noise, body image, dating avoidance, navigating vulnerability with new partners, and what it looks like to show up for dating when you finally feel at home in yourself.

In this solo episode, I answer a few listener questions that all point to the same thing: why dating feels so confusing right now. I talk about how to stop hoping potential will turn into effort when someone’s energy changes, how to figure out which dating “rules” actually matter, and how to tell the difference between needing a break from dating and giving up out of burnout. I also explain why sending texts to the group chat for interpretation often creates more confusion, how to create clarity instead, and what to pay attention to when you’re unsure.

This week on Cohosts, we dive into a debate about which anniversaries actually matter once you’re married. We also answer a listener question about five great dates followed by sudden uncertainty, what it really means when someone says they “need to think,” and how to handle it without spiraling or settling. Plus: social media chaos, internet trends we don’t understand, surprise date planning for friends, and why timing and communication matter so much in dating and relationships.

Liv Schreiber is back on the podcast, and we’re getting real about dating, love, and connection after the wedding glow fades. From meeting people IRL and surviving dating burnout to choosing the right partner when life gets hard, Liv shares the lessons that actually matter. We talk green flags, why opposites work, and why being yourself beats playing it cool—plus bold takes on weddings, money, friendships, and the pressure to do things “the right way.”

In this episode, I’m joined by Sunny, a Syracuse junior who’s doing it all — media, Greek life, friendships, and dating — and somehow staying deeply self-aware through it. We get real about college dating culture, situationships, exclusivity, and how proximity can blur the line between liking someone and just being attached. Sunny opens up about toxic dynamics, knowing when to walk away, and learning to choose herself before a relationship.

Brandon, from the episode “How to Not Lose Hope That Your Person Is Still Out There,” is back today to share what’s shifted since we last spoke. We talk about dating in your late 30s after divorce, dating app burnout, asking someone out in real life, and the quiet pressure of timelines around marriage and kids. Brandon opens up about holding hope while preparing for different futures, redefining success, and learning how to build a meaningful life—even when it doesn’t look the way you imagined.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Chris Moore, psychology professor and author of The Power of Guilt, to unpack why guilt shows up so intensely in dating, friendships, and relationships, and why it’s not always a bad thing. We talk about the difference between guilt and shame, why women tend to feel guilt more deeply, how guilt can keep us stuck in dating situations longer than we should, and when it’s actually a signal for healthy relationship repair versus something to let go of.

 Jake and I talk through our 20-week challenges, from ambitious reading goals to posting trial reels and what consistency actually looks like in real life. I open up about my ongoing social media identity questions, the pressure to “pick a lane.” Plus, we answer listener questions, including mixed signals after a first date, getting ghosted, deciding if you’re ready for a dog while single, and navigating a potential relationship with someone mid-career pivot.
