Damona Hoffman - The Future of Love | Real Love Ready Ep 09 Jun 16, 2026 5087 What does the future of love actually look like? Not the version we inherited, like the relationship escalator, the fairytale, the prince who saves you, the outdated rules about who texts first and who pays. But love as it's really evolving: in a world of dating apps, hot-take profiles, AI technology, and a communication crisis that's reshaping how we connect. In Episode 9 of Real Love Ready, Ro
Shaka Senghor - The Practice of Forgiveness | Real Love Ready Ep 08 Jun 9, 2026 4270 What does it actually mean to forgive?

Bob Dalton - Home: Where Love Lives | Real Love Ready Ep 06 May 26, 2026 3416 What does home really mean? When Bob Dalton asks people that question, the most common answer he hears is safety. Not a place. Not four walls. Safety.

Bob has spent his life ask
John Kim - Where Does Love Go When It Ends? | Real Love Ready Ep 05 May 19, 2026 4441 Does love ever really end? One thing about love is that it rarely prepares you for its own ending. It doesn't give you a manual for what to do when the marriage ends, when the house burns down, when the person you built your life around is suddenly gone. And you're left asking: where does love go when it ends? In Episode 5 of Real Love Ready, Robin sits down with her dear friend John Kim, known as

In Episode 3 of Real Love Ready, Robin sits down with authors, comedians, and best friends since second grade Matt Ritter and Aaron Karo. They are the men behind the book The Buddy System and the podcast Man of the Year. Their thesis is simple and radical at the same time: friendship is not a luxury, it is essential to our survival. And yet platonic love rarely gets the same

In this second episode of Real Love Ready, Robin sits down with author and girls' advocate Chelsey Goodan to explore the patterns installed in us long before we had the language to name them.
