Seeing Other People

I’m joined by Kirstie Taylor, a dating, relationships, and self-love writer & author of “What I Wish I Knew About Love.” Kirstie and I chat about practicing self-love when navigating modern dating, forgiving yourself when your actions caused things to go awry, and setting and enforcing healthy boundaries. We discuss what to do when going through a breakup including building back your self-worth, rediscovering yourself, and working towards getting back out there.

I’m joined by Hilary Weinstein, LCSW and Founder of HLW Therapy, a therapy practice that is currently accepting new clients. We discuss the importance of taking time to reflect on your dating experiences, the most common mistakes women are making in dating, getting back out there after going through a traumatic relationship experience, and how to have a “Who do I want to pick?” mindset instead of a “Pick me!” mindset. We answer listener questions about early signs a relationship won’t work, if relationships should be easy for a certain amount of time, and what to do when you feel demoralized about dating because of your past experiences.

UNFILTERED: I’m joined by a woman from Canada who shares the story of the LDR she was in during COVID while the America/Canada border was semi-closed.
