Dateable: Your insider's look into modern dating and relationships

Ever ask your partner for support and end up getting a TED Talk you never requested? We’re exploring how unsolicited advice shows up in partnerships, why it can feel so invalidating, and how well-meaning intentions can still land the wrong way. We're discussing the difference of wanting to help and overstepping, how to to not overstep boundaries (especially in a world with ChatGPT where everyone can be the expert on anything!), and why sometimes, just being there is the best support.

Is love coming later than you expected? We're back with a quickie where Julie talks about what she learned about getting married a bit "later" in life and how letting go of timelines helped find the type of relationship that actually works. This isn't to say you have to wait until 40 to find your person, but there are benefits if you can find them! Hoping this serves as a reminder to trust in your timing and eventually it'll all make sense.

What if the secret to a healthy, lasting relationship isn’t finding “the right person”… but designing the relationship that’s actually right for you? We’re here with Ellecia Paine who experienced first-hand what it's like to be in a relationship that looks good on the outside but feels empty on the inside, – and how she used this experience to completely redefine what she was looking for in a partnership. We discuss how to break out of the inherited “shoulds” when searching for love, why it's not "too much" to ask for more when it comes to your relationship, and how to create a structure that’s built for who you are, whether you’ve found your person or not.

TW: We talk about an abusive relationship at the start of the interview.

In a world where everything feels uncertain, is it actually possible to future-proof your relationship? In today’s episode, we’re diving into one of the biggest dating trends of 2025: the rise of future-proofing. With people becoming more intentional about who they commit to, long-term compatibility is suddenly more attractive than fleeting chemistry — and psychologists are backing it. In fact, a recent Forbes article calls future-proofing “the healthiest dating trend of 2025,” but is it realistic? We're unpacking why trying to predict the future with a partner isn’t foolproof. In this episode, we break down what future-proofing really means, why it’s trending, where it goes wrong, and how conscious dating (not perfection-hunting) is still the most powerful way to build a fulfilling relationship.

Does dating feel less like a rom-com and more like a horror show these days? We’re here with Rory who has survived it all – from the ghosters, narcissists, and all the other characters out there. But more importantly, how she became a 'final girl' who made it out alive. We're discussing some of the common 'monsters' in dating, how you break toxic dating patterns that get you involved with them in the first place, and ways you can be the final girl (or guy) romanticizing your own love story – whether you've met your person or not.
