What happens when a dream you’ve been putting off suddenly becomes real? 

Canadian magician Kameron Marshall joins Nicole Servinis on Miss Matched after earning four YESes on Season 21 of America’s Got Talent and advancing to the quarterfinals. But his journey to the AGT stage started long before the cameras were rolling. Kameron shares how a Grade 8 teacher first introduced him to magic, why he eventually wrote “America’s Got Talent” on his whiteboard after years of telling himself he’d audition “one day,” and what it felt like to finally stand on the stage he grew up watching. 

We get into the reality behind making magic look effortless: hours of practice, performing through nerves, recovering when a trick goes wrong, reading a room and developing confidence through repetition. Kameron also opens up about the period when he stopped doing magic altogether, what brought him back to the craft, and why remembering the reason he started changed his relationship with performing. 

Plus, he shares the daily habits that keep him focused — including more than 1,200 consecutive days of journaling, rating his days, setting goals and holding himself accountable — and why he believes writing down what you want can actually change the way you pursue it. 

And, of course, Kameron puts Nicole to the test with a card trick that leaves her completely speechless.

Can Kameron Marshall bring the AGT trophy home to Canada? 

Tune into Youtube to see Kameron perform some magic on Nicole — and follow his journey as he heads into the America’s Got Talent live shows.

Has social media changed beauty for the better — or created standards none of us can actually live up to? 

This week on Miss Matched, Nicole sits down with beauty industry veteran and entrepreneur Lyndsay Craig to talk about how the beauty world has evolved after more than 20 years working behind the scenes with major brands. From kids shopping at Sephora younger than ever and the pressure of unrealistic beauty standards, to influencer and celebrity beauty brands, AI, K-beauty and the products actually worth the hype — Lyndsay gives us an insider's look at where the industry is headed. 

Then, we get into the business of beauty. After spending years helping other brands launch and grow through her agency, Lyndsay Craig Beauty, Lyndsay decided to create something of her own. But the idea came from an unexpected and deeply personal place. After her son experienced a serious medical emergency and underwent multiple lifesaving surgeries at SickKids, something Lyndsay learned during his recovery stayed with her. Years later, combined with life as the mom of a young hockey player, that experience inspired Happy Squad — a Canadian personal care brand designed with young athletes and teens in mind. We talk about finding white space in a crowded market, the two-year product development process, the realities of entrepreneurship, trusting an idea enough to invest in it, and turning one of her family's darkest chapters into something with purpose. 

PLUS: Lyndsay shares the beauty products she can't live without and her summer beauty dos and don'ts.

The most important relationship you'll ever have isn't with a partner—it's the one you have with yourself.

In this deeply honest episode of Miss Matched, Nicole Servinis sits down with former psychotherapist, identity transformation coach, author, and podcast host Hina Khan to explore how our self-worth, identity, and inner stories quietly shape every relationship we enter.

Why do we ignore red flags? Why do we keep attracting the same patterns? And how do we know if we're listening to our intuition—or our past wounds?

Hina explains that the partners we choose often reflect the relationship we have with ourselves. Through powerful conversations on identity, confidence, healing, and personal growth, she shares how changing your inner world can completely transform your outer relationships.

In this episode, we discuss:

- Why your relationship with yourself determines your relationships with others

- The connection between self-worth and who you're attracted to

- How to break unhealthy dating patterns

- Learning to trust yourself after heartbreak

- The difference between intuition and trauma

- Why we ignore red flags (and how to stop)

- Identity shifts and becoming the person you're meant to be

- Confidence, imposter syndrome, and self-image

- Why healthy love can feel uncomfortable after chaos

- The courage to stop shrinking yourself for someone else

- How healing yourself changes the people you attract

Whether you're single, dating, healing from heartbreak, or in a long-term relationship, this conversation is a reminder that lasting love doesn't start by finding the right person—it starts by becoming the most authentic version of yourself.

If money has ever caused tension in your dating life (or made you swipe left) or friendship, this conversation will make you feel seen, smarter, and way less alone.

In this solo episode of Miss Matched, Nicole shares the dating story she’s never told — a relationship that started with chemistry and love bombing but spiraled into jealousy, manipulation, and one night that changed everything. She opens up about confusing intensity with intimacy, ignoring early red flags, and realizing that someone else’s insecurity is not your responsibility to fix.

Nicole also reflects on walking away, rebuilding her confidence, and learning that the right person will never be threatened by her freedom. If you’ve ever stayed too long or tried to shrink yourself for someone else’s comfort, this one will hit home. Press play for the full story — and the chapter that heartbreak helped her grow into.

Ever wondered, “Are we actually meant to be?” or “Why does love feel so hard sometimes?” 💭 This week on Miss Matched, I’m sitting down with Dr. Mary Marano — psychotherapist, founder & CEO of Life and Family Counselling Services, and the woman who says, “Change isn’t a skill, it’s a choice.” We go there.We talk about why we’re drawn to certain people, how our childhood shows up in our adult relationships, why some of us date the same person in a different body, and how to tell the difference between “this is hard because growth is hard” and “this isn’t good for me.” Dr. Mary breaks down emotional regulation (why you flip your lid), fair fighting rules, why couples should argue in their functional adult not their adaptive child, and how to rebuild after a breakup that felt like a death. We also get into parenting, fostering, generational trauma, and how overhelping your kids actually steals their confidence.🎧 Listen now on Spotify / Apple / YouTube💬 Comment your biggest “that’s me” moment.

What happens when a billion-dollar builder gets real about relationships? In this episode, entrepreneur and philanthropist Michael Hyatt (two exits, Hyatt Family Office/CIO, CBC commentator) goes deep on the crossover between company building and couple building—how the same habits that scale a startup can strengthen a marriage and family.

We cover: why winners are tortoises, not hares; the danger of “hope as a strategy”; founder-led sales and unit economics; working with family without blowing it up; “trust but verify” leadership; EQ > IQ in an AI world; and why the most important decision you’ll ever make (in business and life) is who you choose as your partner. Michael shares candid lessons on dating while scaling, marrying and having kids later in life, making small daily deposits into your relationship, and the rule that changed his parenting: be present.

If you’re a founder, operator, or ambitious romantic trying to have both the hustle and the heart, this one’s your playbook.

Subscribe for more conversations at the intersection of love, work, and everything messy in between.

Guest: Michael Hyatt — Entrepreneur, Investor, Chair of the Hyatt Family Foundation
Topics: Entrepreneurship, relationships, family business, leadership, AI, resilience, parenting, dating while building

Failure doesn’t mean you’re a failure — and this episode proves it. This week on Miss Matched, Nicole sits down with Marsha Druker, community builder, podcaster, and the force behind Fuckup Nights Toronto. For the past eight years, Marsha has built a space where entrepreneurs, creatives, and professionals share their biggest mistakes instead of their polished success stories. Together, they dive into why failure is really just feedback, how Marsha’s own layoffs and pivots shaped her path, and how to separate the idea of failing from being a failure. They also explore the power of community in turning setbacks into comebacks and the lessons learned from hundreds of unfiltered stories.

From crying over test scores as kids to losing jobs and relationships as adults, Nicole and Marsha get real about what it means to fall, get back up, and find purpose in the mess. If you’ve ever felt like you’re “not good enough” after a setback, this conversation is your reminder that failure isn’t the end — it’s just part of the story.

On this episode of Miss Matched, I sit down with writer, editor, and organizer Hayley Mlotek, whose debut book No Fault: A Memoir of Romance and Divorce dives into the messy, layered reality of relationships ending. Hayley has lived a thousand creative lives — from makeup artist to essayist to editorial lead at Feeld — and she brings that same curiosity and candor to her writing.

Together, we explore what it means to grow up with a high school sweetheart, why divorce doesn’t equal failure, and how cultural narratives around marriage are shifting. We talk about why divorce is both grief and freedom, and how community (friends, family, and chosen families) can carry us through heartbreak.

We also get into love in the modern age: the realities of dating apps, redefining intimacy, and why embracing ambiguity can be liberating. This conversation is honest, layered, and full of hope — reminding us that endings are rarely just endings.

If you’ve ever questioned what it means to stay, to leave, or to start over, this one’s for you.
