About this episode
Many of us didn't grow up learning how to date in a world of endless options and quick rejections, and those of us who have don't know a life without it. So it's no wonder so many people feel disoriented, burned out, or discouraged by the dating scene.
In this episode, Justin and Abi are joined by Bryant Ellis, owner and CEO of The Adventure Challenge, for a candid conversation about how online dating is changing our brains—and what it takes to stay grounded and authentic in the process. Together, they explore the hidden impact of dating app culture, how to stay human in the middle of it, and what to do with the fear of rejection that stops so many people from putting themselves out there.
They also talk about how to approach dating with purpose instead of passivity, how to create a plan for emotional resilience, and how to build genuine connection in a culture of swiping.
If you've ever wondered how to date with clarity and confidence (without losing your soul in the process), this episode is for you!
