Seeing Other People

My fiancé Jake (AH!) joins me to recap our proposal week! We answer your questions about when we knew we wanted to marry each other, if/when we talked about a timeline for getting engaged, and if he asked my parents’ permission. We dive into our ring-making process, what “ring shopping” was like, how far in advance he got the ring, and more. Finally, we talk about our proposal day, whether or not I knew, and how the proposal unfolded. Jake shares his thoughts going into popping the question, and I open up about how it felt in the moment when he got down on one knee. Thanks to everyone who has been a part of our love story and shoutout to our families for making this such a magical week.

Shoutout to our amazing jeweler, Scott at Flawless Carat! Get in touch for the ring (or any jewelry) of your dreams https://flawlesscarat.com/ [email protected]

I’m joined by Ariella Azaraf, LCSW, to talk about expressing your needs, setting boundaries, and managing your dating anxiety. We discuss the language to use when you want to communicate about your needs (or your needs not being met) to someone new, when and how to trust your gut and intuition, coping with being blindsided, and what to do when you’re fresh out of a breakup and are afraid to go to the places that remind you of them. Ariella shares her expertise on where your anxiety comes from, what to do in moments of high anxiety, and how you can work towards healing your anxious attachment.

Ariella’s practice is currently accepting new clients! Check out www.ariellaazaraflcsw.com for more info and to get in touch.

I’m sharing one of my favorite podcast interviews I’ve experienced to date! Elevation Nation’s Sam Pantich and Parker Yablon invited me onto their show to discuss how I got to where I am today. We discuss my career path, including my struggle in the music industry post-college, my time at Hinge, and how I made the decision to go full time with Seeing Other People. I open up about the challenges I faced, my internal struggles, and what led me to start podcasting and opening up about mid dating life. We discuss the power of vulnerability, dating app tips, and more.
