Date/able Podcast

This week we're turning the tables and Yue is interviewing Julie now! Julie shares her experiences (and surprises!) about married life, including the unexpected emotional aftermath of the wedding. She reflects on her personal growth over the past decade, the importance of stability in relationships, and also how her anxieties have now manifested in different forms. We discuss the big 'What's Next?' question and Julie opens up about the pressures and considerations involved along with how she's trying to regain her mojo and trust in the timing of life events. Enjoy!

It's easy to get wrapped up in the chemistry and connection with someone without actually being objective if they have the capacity of a relationship (or the type of relationship you want!) right now. As someone who learned the hard way spending years with people who weren't ready, Julie takes you through 5 questions she'd ask today to get a better feel of where someone was at (many of which she had discussed with her now-husband as well!). She shares why it's best to ask these types of questions early, how to ask them without it feeling like a daterview, and ways to really listen to the way they respond. Enjoy!

We're back with a crowd favorite of when we interview each other! This week, Julie interviews Yue, starting with her reflections on 2025 and how she learned to not shrink herself and embrace the freedom to be her true self. She also drops something so surprising (she even had Julie in shock!) related to her current relationship and how she's been able to work through the challenges of understanding each other's definitions of freedom. We discuss future goals for 2026, how she's aiming for more alignment, and the ways she's working to build a rich life for herself and with her partner. Enjoy!

With the throwback to 2016 trend, Yue reflected back to what she was like during that time when dating. As someone who was often told she was "intimidating", she shares how she used to view this as a badge of honor and as a way to attract men, but now realizes it was code for being emotionally unavailable and attracting all the wrong types of people. She shares why this actually held her back in dating, the shifts she made, and why she wants to be viewed as open and available instead. Enjoy!

We often ask "Are they ready for a relationship?" but the more important questions is "Are you ready?" We're revealing 10 questions you need to ask yourself now to see how you relate to others, know when to stay vs walk away, and trust yourself in the process of finding love. We're also doing a final segment with Dr Serena Sterling, the founder of the new dating app Satya, about taking initiative on dating apps to actually make dates happen (and how to make it crystal clear if you're ready or not).

We talk about the need for emotional intelligence all the time, but what about relational intelligence? In many ways, it's as important or if not more! In today's episode, Julie's taking about the 5 stages of Relational Intelligence and how to put them into motion when applied to the common dating scenario of someone you're into not texting or setting up plans as quickly as you'd like. Julie shares why regulating before you act is so important, the type of text you can send to get the clarity you need, and how to move forward with this information.

Being detached doesn't mean that you don't care or give up on dating. But it does mean that you know your worth and aren't going to settle for less than treatment because you got attached to someone or the idea of a relationship working out. We're joined with guest Sabrina Bendory for our Season 21 finale to discuss the power of detachment – through her own story and those of her clients – and how this subtle shift can help you reclaim your agency when dating. We discuss navigating ambiguity in dating in a way that frees you from anxiety, how to take control of what's in your control when dating (and detach from the rest), and ways you can practice micro-surrendering without surrendering your need for a healthy, fulfilling relationship.
