56. Date Like a Matchmaker

On this week’s episode I interview Ariel Rosen about her experience in a career field she was seemingly destined for – personal coaching and matchmaking. She reveals some of the most valuable dating philosophies she imparts on her clients, and how that impacts her own approach to relationships. We also dive into how her career impacts men’s perceptions, and why her romantic rejections are often met with awkward and unsexy replies like “Can you coach me on how to get you?”

55. Miss/Mister Independent

This week I’m independently recording for Independence Day to discuss involuntary independence – aka how to cope with a break-up. We’re skipping past the cliches and diving into the lessons I learned from drunk dialing my exes, crying by myself in movie theaters, and adopting a drastic hairstyle change post-breakup.

47. I Love You, [Wing]Man

This week on Interstates & Heartbreak, we hear a male perspective on dating in Los Angeles. I interview the primary beneficiary of my wingwoman skills, Ryan Pantages, to reflect on the role our friendship has played in our respective dating journeys over the years – including my unsolicited input into Ryan’s choice of wardrobe and neighborhood, and his strong disapproval of two very specific individuals I dated in the past. ​
