  • You Do You, Episode 70: Is Love Blind?
    For this week's episode, Sarah and Kaley could not resist jumping on the bandwagon and asking "Is Love Blind?" Hot off the heels of Netflix's reality show by (almost) the same name, your co-hosts dive deep into the show and wonder whether you can fall in love with someone sight unseen and if love at first sight is real. Tune in to hear what we have to say about this age old question!

  • You Do You, Episode 69: String Theory - Are You A Stringer or a Stringee?
    This week, Kaley and Sarah discuss string theory-and no! We're not talking science. Have you ever strung along a friend you're not really that into in the hopes they'll be around if you're both single and haven't found partners yet? Have you ever been strung along by a friend who's in a long term relationship because they like having lots of attention? Yah, we've heard stories. It happens! But like crushes, being a stringer and/or a stringee feeds off your low self esteem-and we want you to banish that! Tune in to this week's episode to learn how we all get into this bad habit and how to break it!

  • You Do You, Episode 68: What's Better: Dating Online vs. IRL?
    This week, Sarah and Kaley sit down to discuss the age old discussion of whether it is better to find dates online or in real life. Online dating services began in 1994 and over the last 26 years couples have been using the internet to date. Online dating does pose some risks to safety and potential cat-fishing. However, online dating has many advantages in regards to efficiency and meeting people you may not encounter in real life. But still, there is resistance from people who feel that meeting in real life makes your chances at sparking a relationship better. But in this day and age when our time is becoming more constricted and the interactions we have with strangers are fewer and fewer, how does one go about meeting someone IRL? Tune in this week to find out the pros and cons of both sides!

  • You Do You, Episode 62: In Defense of Ultimatums
    This week, Sarah and Kaley examine the stigma surrounding ultimatums. Our fearless co-hosts dare to ask, "Are they really that bad?" Whether you're tired of waiting for a partner to propose or you can't agree on whether to have kids, sometimes issuing an ultimatum is an effective way to find out if there's a path forward. Issuing an ultimatum isn't coercing your partner; you're asserting a boundary, letting them know you want someone who can meet your needs. And if they can't? Thank u, next!
