Episode #211: Rob Mack Guest - Attachment, Aloneness & Modern Love & Dating
About this episode
Elle Russ chats with Rob Mack about the modern state of dating, relationships, loneliness, happiness, and human connection in an increasingly disconnected world. Together, they explore everything from dating app fatigue, commitment paralysis, and "strategic singledom" to the rise of polyamory, self-awareness culture, trauma patterns, friendship, and the misunderstood meaning of "alpha" traits in men and women.
Drawing from both positive psychology research and personal experience, Elle and Rob unpack the emotional realities behind modern relationships with humor, insight, honesty, and philosophical depth. The conversation dives into modern loneliness, the paradox of choice, attachment, self-worth, emotional presence, and why learning to enjoy your own company may be one of the foundations of a healthy relationship.
