In this week’s episode, I’m kicking off a mini-series all about ditching the dating apps and getting back into the real world. Think of this as part one of three, where I share a life update, some hilarious moments, and why I’m shifting my mindset from finding “the one” to simply getting out there and practicing how to meet people in everyday life. From matchmaking events to speed dating (coming up soon!), this is just the beginning of a new dating adventure—and it’s already proving to be way more exciting than swiping.

This week, I’m serving up a chaotic mix of dating misadventures, unsolicited advice, and one truly concerning footwear choice.

• First up: Hot Yoga Man™️—because apparently, you all need more details, and honestly, so do I.
• Then, a friend suggested I conduct a social experiment and date older men. So, like any reasonable person, I expanded my Hinge age range… and immediately regretted it. Terrifying. Might delete.
• Speaking of regrets, let’s revisit the blind date guy who showed up in Jesus sandals (yes, really) and the time I got catfished. Because apparently, the dating gods enjoy watching me suffer.

Listen in for the full saga, and as always, feel free to send me your own dating disasters so I don’t feel so alone in this mess.

In this episode, I dive into my unexpected reaction to Baby Girl, the new Nicole Kidman film. While the movie sets up a dynamic between Kidman’s character and her husband that you’re supposed to appreciate, I couldn’t shake this uneasy feeling about their relationship. Then, when the younger love interest enters the picture, I found myself enjoying their dynamic—maybe a little too much.

It got me thinking: why did I feel so drawn to something I knew I wasn’t supposed to? The feeling of being overly complimented, almost love-bombed, felt oddly familiar… and kind of triggering. That realization led me to a funny (and slightly uncomfortable) story from my own life, which I’ll share in this episode.

Let’s talk about unexpected emotional responses, love bombing, and the ways movies can reflect our own experiences—sometimes without us even realizing it.

It’s been a whole year since I last recorded, and honestly? I was just out here living. No updates, no sharing—just fully immersing myself in life. And now, I’m back with stories. Since we last spoke, I became a dog mom, an auntie, and somehow managed to go a whole year without being laid (which is wild for a dating podcast, right?).

In this episode, I catch you up on everything, including my latest thoughts on dating, the kind of energy I’m attracting now, and—oh yeah—the ridiculously hot guy at hot yoga. Have my dating standards evolved? Is the scene any better? Let’s talk about it.

Tune in for a fun, unfiltered catch-up—you’ve been missed "Wild Things"!

Okay, I did it! I joined Bumble Bff and the review is in... drumroll please. Needless to say, I'm obsessed. 5 STARS! I only wish I would have signed up sooner. The simplicity of making a new friend with similar hobbies and likes is almost impossible out in the wild. On Bumble Bff it's as easy as one swipe away. Listen to this week's episode for more details. 

There is something so special about being honest, and vulnerable. Especially, when it's about your biggest fears and downfalls. My goal this year was to work on all my fears, so in turn nothing can hold me back, including myself. Even if I fail and I know I will, I will have the confidence to try again and push harder. This past week was a "flop" (in my eyes)  but I'm not letting that stop me... 

Life is so much more fun when you put your words and/or thoughts into action... Let me explain. I had a craving and a desperate need for something going into the new year. The feeling was growing and becoming overwhelming and with therapy, I've been able to pinpoint exactly what it is. I did something gutsy and it worked out. But now, you have to listen to figure it out. Thank you for the support! For more info visit our Instagram @theforbiddentrainglepodcast and Catherine @catherine_kilgour Email us at [email protected]

As we end the year, I thought it would be fun to share my final date of 2023... I might have overshared my thoughts and feelings going into the date. So enjoy that part!! I just love being vulnerable. LOL. Spoiler Alert! I thought he was my future hubby and it ended up being a one-date-only situation. Not only will I share my date story but I will also share the lessons I've learnt this year and what my exciting plans are going into the new YEAR!! Pour yourself a glass of champagne and enjoy. Cheers to 2024 "Wild Things"! Thank you for the support! For more info visit our Instagram @theforbiddentrainglepodcast and Catherine @catherine_kilgour Email us at [email protected]
