let's make dating fun again!

fyi: he's not going to change once he's in a relationship
Let’s have a little come-to-Jesus moment, shall we? In this episode of Love, Brie, I’m delivering a much-needed pep talk for anyone hanging onto the hope that maybe he’ll change once he “commits.” Spoiler alert: he won’t.If he’s confused now, if he’s inconsistent now, if he’s not choosing you now — guess what? A relationship isn’t going to magically fix that. In fact, committing to a man like this
why i'm choosing to believe i'm in my meeting season
today I’m talking about something I'm calling: my meeting season. That subtle, sacred shift from simply being single to knowing, or at least hoping, that you're entering the season where love shows up. The season of “almosts” turning into “oh, this could be something.”I woke up feeling a little heavy this morning — not because I don’t love my single life (I do, deeply), but because I’m human. And

you don't want him obsessed with you, trust me
You don’t want him obsessed with you — you need to be obsessed with you.

don't date like a black cat, date like a human
In this solo episode of Love, Brie, I go on a bit of a rant (surprise!) about the state of modern dating and what I’ve been noticing lately — more detachment, more aloofness, and a lot less actual connection. It feels like everyone is trying to date like a black cat: cool, mysterious, unavailable. But here’s the truth — that vibe might be aesthetic on Instagram, but it’s not sustainable when you a
why dating outside your type might be exactly what you need
In this quick solo episode, I dive into what happens when you start dating outside your “type”—and no, I’m not just talking about looks.

why dating with detachment changed everything for me

living with parents, single in your 40s, and navigating modern dating with Simone Paget

yes, you can meet people in the wild—but you have to make it happen
A lot of people say, “Just get off the apps and meet people in real life.” Cool. But how? Because simply showing up somewhere—joining a hobby group, going to a coffee shop, or sitting at a bar—doesn’t magically mean you’ll meet someone. You actually have to make things happen.In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what that means. It’s not about just existing in the right places—it’s about bei

why we're all feeling stuck right now
Feeling stuck this year? Same. It's not just you -- there's a major energetic shift happening and a lot of us are questioning what's next.

i finally joined a dating app
I joined a dating app this summer.
This is something I didn’t think I would do. I swore up and down to friends and family, to even my dating coach, that I wouldn’t do it.
“I like meeting men in the wild,” I said over and over again. “It’s more organic that way. It feels more aligned to me.” (This is still true, but we’ll get to that later.)
In this week's episode I talk about my initial though

PLEASURE YOUR DAMN SELF
How to love yourself a little more this summer?
PLEASURE YOUR DAMN SELF
Pleasure is one of those things that I don’t think we experience enough or allow ourselves to experience enough. I think when we allow ourselves to experience pleasure in all forms in our lives, we begin to further understand how and why our body responds to pleasure.

how to trust yourself
this is week #3 in the "love yourself a little more" series.
how often do we say before we date someone, “Well, I need to be able to trust them.” Or “They need to be trustworthy.”
I get it. We want to remain safe. We want to remain in control. If they are trustworthy, then everything is OK. I will be OK.
But this isn’t how it works. This is a “you” thing — not a “them” thing. What I’ve

the importance of making new friends and navigating old friendships as a single person (with friendship expert Shari Leid)

why i'm taking texting off the table when it comes to dating
I don't know about you but I hate texting in the beginning stages of dating or getting to know someone.

Who wants to be waiting by the phone just to hear from their latest crush?!
