From Thanksgiving to the Chinese term Sheng nu (which translates to "leftover woman"), we're discussing the pressure we often get from family, society, and even internally to settle down by a certain age with comedian Bernice Ye. We discuss how to tell your family to respectively back off when it comes to your love life, why we can't let labels shape our identity, and how to let go of the pressure and enjoy life.

Whether you're into porn or you have a partner that is, we're chatting with Matt Sinkovitz about how his porn habits became compulsive and eventually led him to become a porn abstinence coach. We discuss how porn shapes our perception of sex, how porn addiction (and any addiction for that matter) can interfere with our relationships, and how people can reignite the passion in their actual relationships + marriages.

Trigger Warning: There is a brief mention of thoughts of suicide when Matt shares his story.

From mental health to physical impairments, more of us are dating with disabilities than you may think. We're chatting with Tiffany Yu about her own experience and how she's overcome the shame and insecurity that spilled into her dating life. We discuss why we tend to hide certain aspects of ourselves whiled dating, how to navigate dating apps vs. more organic connections with these said "imperfections", and how we can all start to see each other (and ourselves) as the beautiful people we are.

Maybe you've had the thought 'once I get in a relationship, then I'll be happy' or 'once I get married, THEN I'll be happy'. We're chatting with positive psychology expert and celebrity happiness coach Rob Mack about why we often look to relationships as our source of happiness, when this is something we can find from within. We discuss how we're wired for happiness, how to come out of situations that don't make us happy, and why it's more important to find someone who supports our happiness over becomes our happiness.

Trigger Warning: There is a brief mention of thoughts of suicide when Rob shares his story.
