Sleepless in Seattle with Talia Koren: Rom-Com Vom17 May 202600:32:05

This episode originally aired on Sex Ed with DB!

In Sleepless in Seattle, a woman hears a stranger’s voice on the radio and decides she has to be with him. A few cross-country flights, some light stalking, and one dramatic Empire State Building finale later. Was it a recipe for true love? Or just another rom-com ignoring boundaries in the name of "destiny?"

In this episode, I joined DB to unpack the film’s gender dynamics, its borderline obsessive premise, and why rom-coms always overlook the stable, reliable guy.

259. The 5 Stages of Dating & Why Most People Don't Make It to Commitment w/ Amy Chan01 May 202600:50:44

I'm chatting with Amy Chan, relationship expert, retreat founder, and author of the brand-new book Unsingle, about why most people are just a few strategic adjustments away from finding their match. We're discussing everything from the dating funnel (and which stage you're most likely sabotaging) to the spectrum between having no standards and over-icking yourself out of love to why dating is a personality game, but relationships are a character game. Amy also breaks down the difference between preferences and non-negotiables, why narcissists are actually great daters, and how to build intuition so you stop overriding your gut. At the end, we tackle a dating dilemma about taking it slow with a work crush you've known for seven months.

174. Navigating Relationship "Firsts" (Meeting Friends, Parents, First Sleepover etc)16 May 202500:38:10

In this episode, you’ll learn how to navigating the milestones you’ll hit in a new relationship. All of these “firsts” can be both exciting and nerve-wracking! From the first sleepover to meeting each other's friends and family, these "firsts" often come with their own set of challenges and considerations. I want you to approach these significant moments with intention and authenticity. I’m discussing timing, boundaries, and communication strategies for various relationship milestones, including weekend getaways, deeper conversations, and holiday celebrations. Whether you're currently dating or preparing for future relationships, this episode offers practical advice on handling these important transitions while staying true to yourself.

173. Tips For Managing Your Mind Drama & Anxiety While Dating w/ Britt Frank13 May 202500:46:12

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Britt Frank to dig into the messy, complicated world of the inner critics, especially how it shows up in dating. We talk about recognizing the nature of our inner dialogue and why it’s so important to validate our feelings instead of brushing them off.

Throughout our conversation, we explore how to move from letting our inner critic take the lead to guiding it into a more supportive role. We get into why self-leadership matters, how anxiety plays into our lives, and why being kind to ourselves makes all the difference in relationships. This episode is all about shifting from self-judgment to self-acceptance and building the kind of inner dialogue that helps us thrive.

172. When You're Looking For A Slow Burn, But They're Rushing It09 May 202500:23:11

In this episode of Dating Intentionally, I’m talking about the very real and very common experience of rushing a connection in dating. You’ll hear the signs to look out for, like constant texting, premature intimacy, or talking about the future way too soon. While some of this can feel exciting, I explain why it’s often a red flag, not just enthusiasm. I’ll walk you through how to recognize when things are moving too fast, how to set boundaries without killing the vibe, and why it’s so important to actually get to know someone before you start planning your life together. I wrap things up with some concrete ways to slow it down and find a pace that feels right for you.

171. How To Rewire Your Attraction To Pursue Healthier Connections w/ Louise Rumball06 May 202500:52:20

In this episode, we’re getting into why we’re so often drawn to the wrong people and what it takes to break out of those old attraction patterns for good. If you’ve ever found yourself chasing a certain vibe or dynamic in dating (even when it never really works out), this conversation is going to hit. I’m joined by Louise Rumball, host of the Healing Honeys podcast (formerly Openhouse) and creator of Daily Devotion, a somatic wellness studio helping women feel better in their bodies. Louise shares her own experience of rewiring her attraction patterns, how she met her current partner, and what healing looks like in real life. We also talk about embracing single life, the importance of a slow burn, decentering romance, what to focus on if you’re at the start of your healing journey, and what growth looks like even after years of therapy and self-work.

In this episode, you'll learn all about "the shift" which is what you experience when someone goes from super enthusiastic about you, to suddenly pulling away, sometimes out of nowhere.

In this episode, you'll learn why so many dating app profiles start to look and sound the same and what that means on a deeper level (It's deeper than you think). I’m joined by Dr. Jennie Young, a writer, English professor, and creator of Burned Haystack Dating Method. BHDM is a framework for understanding the patterns and formulas people use in their bios (usually without even realizing it). We talk about why these patterns show up, how they shape your experience swiping, and how to create a dating app profile that actually stands out without trying so hard. At the end, we analyze some profiles and messages together to identify rhetorical patterns. This episode is going to change how you look at dating app profiles!

164. Dating Standards: Are You Too Picky or Not Picky Enough?11 Apr 202500:26:58

In this episode, we're getting into what standards in dating are (and what they're not) and how to tell if your standards are too high or too low. I get into the dangers of each and how to adjust your standards no matter which category you fall into. Are your standards holding you back? Hint: Too-high standards are a form of self-sabotage, and too-low standards are a form of self-abandonment.


Examples of dating standards:


  • I date people who have the time to see me in person within days of matching or first starting to talk.
  • I continue to date people who are consistent in their communication
  • I sleep with someone when I feel confident there’s alignment in what kind of relationship we’re both looking for 
  • I date people who have the ability to share times that work for them for dates, make plans with me and follow through 
  • I continue seeing people who I’m attracted to by the third date

163. Why High Achievers Struggle To Feel Secure In Love w/ Clare Cui08 Apr 202500:50:03

In this episode, I talk to Clare Cui from @bethathealinggirl about anxious attachment, intellectualizing emotions, and other ways we hold ourselves back in dating and relationships. We talk about the deep conditioning that drives us to seek control through logic, how we end up triggering ourselves without realizing it, and the confusion between intuition and anxiety. Clare shares how anxious attachment often hides in plain sight for high achievers, and we dig into why so many of us look for safety in others instead of creating it internally. This conversation is packed with mic-drop moments and hard truths that will get you thinking differently about your emotions, how you handle them, and how that relates to your love life.

In this episode, I'm deep-diving into ten relationship green flags that aren't talked about enough, how to spot them, and their red flag counterparts. You deserve a partner who has the basic green flags we always talk about like consistency, respect, listening, effort etc. But today, we're going deeper into what it looks like to have a truly supportive partner and the real signs that your partner is empathetic and compassionate. At the end, I address a question about navigating dating someone who shows up in all the right ways but misses the mark on one small but important thing.

    156. The Best First Date Questions + What Daters Regret Not Asking Sooner14 Mar 202500:41:19

    Get 90+ questions to ask in early dating


    Do you ever struggle with what to talk about on a date? Or maybe you want to get better at building real connections? In this episode, I’m sharing tons of inspiration for great questions to ask in early dating, the worst ones to avoid, and navigating tricky conversations without derailing the date. We’ll also dive into the number one topic that so many daters regret not bringing up sooner, how to answer "why are you single" (and what to ask instead). I also share how to ask better follow-up questions and scripts for handling tough topics like past relationships, STI talks, and career gaps.

    257. What Reality TV Says About Dating Culture (And What We Can Learn) w/ Dear Shandy24 Apr 202600:57:33

    I'm chatting with Sharleen Joynt and Andy Levine, the husband-and-wife hosts of Dear Shandy, one of my favorite reality TV recap podcasts. We're discussing everything from what Love Is Blind contestants keep getting wrong (and how it mirrors real life) to why Andy believes online dating is the slow death of modern romance, to how to bring up the "big" topics on a first date. This episode is packed with practical dating advice from a couple who have seen it all. At the end, we tackle a dating dilemma from a woman who's not sure whether her boyfriend's travel issues are a dealbreaker.

    Situationships are messy, undefined, and often leave you feeling stuck.

I’ll share how to get out of a situationship, whether you're the one who wants more or the one who can’t commit, plus tips on avoiding them altogether. I also answer a listener’s question on recognizing red flags early and share my own experience with a situationship that dragged on for years.

    151. Bisexual & Queer Dating: Advice & What To Expect w/ Casey Tanner25 Feb 202500:50:50

    In this episode, Casey Tanner, founder of Queer Sex Therapy and The Expansive Group, shares their journey, from navigating insecurities as someone newly exploring queer dating to meeting their current partner. We dive into dating IRL as a queer person, long-distance relationships, and what to do if you're intimidated by dating women. Casey also breaks down common queer sex myths, explores how gender roles translate in queer relationships, and shares mistakes they've made along the way. I love Casey's honest take on how it feels to date women as a woman with zero experience. Even if you’re straight, there’s plenty to learn from this fun conversation!

    If showing interest in the person you're dating is scary, this episode will help! Showing interest when you're interested is key in developing a secure, healthy relationship in the early dating stage - even when things feel uncertain.

    256. How To Actually Stay Motivated While Dating (throwback)21 Apr 202600:25:34

    I went on about 150 dates with over 60 people in a year before I met my now husband, and don't for a second think "hope" is what got me through it and kept me motivated. In this episode, which originally aired in 2024, I'm sharing why hope is useless and what to focus on instead: your beliefs. I didn't hope I'd meet someone; I believed it was inevitable. Listen to this episode if you're ready to work on your beliefs so you don't burn out after the rejection, false starts, and ghosting (that's also inevitable if you're dating). At the end, I get into a new dating dilemma about a dramatic reaction to a last-minute date switch-up.

    I'm chatting with Rebecca Ore, a relationship coach and former anxiously attached dater who transformed her own relationship experience after discovering thought work and coaching.
