    💌 Ghosting, Modern Dating & Advice You Actually Need with Meredith Goldstein

    Let’s face it—dating in the digital age is a wild ride. One minute you’re vibing in the DMs, the next… they vanish into thin air. If you’ve ever wished for a wise older sister (with a killer sense of humor) to decode modern love for you, this episode is it.

    In this honest, hilarious, and totally validating convo, I sit down with Meredith Goldstein—beloved Boston Globe advice columnist and author of the “Love Letters” column and podcast—to unpack the messy, magical, and maddening ways we fall for each other in today’s world.

    Meredith has been answering love and relationship questions for over 15 years, offering grounded, compassionate advice that makes you feel seen. Her memoir, Can’t Help Myself, and YA novel Chemistry Lessons prove she knows a thing or two about both heartache and humor.

    In this episode, you’ll hear us dive into:

    👻 What ghosting really says (and how to stop blaming yourself)

    📝 The behind-the-scenes of writing a wildly popular advice column

    💡 Why your questions—no matter how “silly” they seem—deserve to be heard

    🦠 The emotional complexity of pandemic dating, and what it taught us about connection

    🤝 How empathy can be your secret weapon in dating (yes, even when you’re pissed)

    Whether you're in the dating trenches, trying to figure out where it all went wrong, or just love a good love story, this episode is a balm for your heart—and a laugh-out-loud reminder that you are not alone.

    🎧 Press play and get ready for some refreshingly real talk about love, loss, and everything in between.

    163: Get your FLIRT ON: Dating Smarter, Bolder, and with More Fun Than Ever
    Jun 16 2025
    What if flirting wasn’t awkward, dating didn’t feel like a second job, and attracting love could be playful and powerful?

    In this episode of the Smart Dating Academy Podcast, I sit down with the dazzling Lauren Frances, and let me tell you—she brings the magic. From the moment she opens her mouth, you’ll understand why she’s been dubbed The Flirt Fairy by Victoria’s Secret and The Doctor of Love by EXTRA. Lauren knows how to light up a room—and more importantly, how to help you do the same in your love life.

    We get into it all: how to flirt without feeling fake, why boundaries are the ultimate aphrodisiac, and how to gracefully exit the “situationship spiral.” If you’ve ever felt like your romantic GPS was off, Lauren’s loving (and hilariously spot-on) advice will have you re-routing with a smile.

    What You'll Learn in This Episode:

    • How to make flirting fun again (yes, it’s a skill—and yes, you can totally learn it!)

    • Why flirting is less about seduction—and more about connection

    • What a Love Magnet Makeover is—and how it can help you glow from the inside out

    • The politics of dating: how to read signals, set standards, and navigate modern romance like a pro

    • How to avoid relationship ruts and start attracting high-quality connections

    If you’ve ever felt like dating was more stress than sparkle, this episode will remind you that love isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being playful, powerful, and totally aligned with who you are. You’re not too late. You’re not too much. You’re just getting started.

  • 162: 🧠 Conscious Dating: How Inner Work, Self-Worth & Energy Shape the Love You Attract with Angela Nicole Holton

    162: 🧠 Conscious Dating: How Inner Work, Self-Worth & Energy Shape the Love You Attract with Angela Nicole Holton
    Jun 2 2025
    If you’re done with surface-level situationships and ready for soul-stirring, conscious connection—this one’s for you. ✨

    In this episode, I sit down with internationally recognized dating and relationship coach Angela Nicole Holton for a heart-opening, no-fluff conversation about what it really takes to attract lasting, authentic love.

    Angela was named one of Yahoo’s Top 10 Relationship Coaches of 2020 and is the author of “Date Night Ideas for Couples” (endorsed by none other than Dr. John Gray of Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus) and “The Secret Method to Conscious Love.” She teaches dating from the inside-out, helping individuals and couples tap into their authentic truth so they can love—and be loved—fully and fearlessly.

    This conversation will inspire you to ask better questions (of yourself and others), show up with unapologetic authenticity, and date in a way that feels good in your soul.

    We get into:

    💫 Why being present matters more than being impressive — and how authentic energy makes you magnetic on a first date.

    🧠 How curiosity and intentional questions spark real connection — and turn first dates into powerful data collection, not performance.

    ✨ The game-changing role of self-worth in dating — and how doing the inner work shifts what (and who) you attract.

    🚩 Why honoring your truth helps you date with clarity — and how tuning into your feelings reveals whether someone truly aligns.

    🧘‍♀️ How self-love transforms your dating life — and why the relationship with yourself is always the starting point.

    Angela's wisdom is deep, soulful, and practical—like having your most evolved, heart-centered girlfriend give you the loving truth.

    If you’re craving a new way to date—one that feels aligned, conscious, and truly magnetic—this episode will have you rethinking everything (in the best way possible).

    🎧 Tune in now and get ready to date with more purpose, power, and pleasure.
