Dating in your 20s and 30s is a journey...and not always a fun one. This week, I’m joined by Jackie (@looks.by.jac), a content creator who’s mastered the art of embracing single life and romanticizing everyday moments. We’re spilling the tea on dating in a new city, why we ditched the apps, our best (and worst) date stories, and how to actually enjoy being single.

If you’ve ever been ghosted, gone on a date so bad it felt like a social experiment, or just needed a reminder that being single is not a waiting room for your next relationship, this episode is for you. Grab a matcha (or a glass of wine) and let’s chat.

Turning 31 feels like a milestone, so I’m sitting down to reflect on the lessons, advice, and hopes that have shaped me. In this episode, I’m breaking it down into three parts: 10 things I’d tell my younger self, 10 lessons I’ve learned by 31, and 10 things I’m hopeful for in the next decade of my life. Plus, I’m wrapping it all up with the biggest takeaway from my 31 years so far. If you’re in the mood for introspection, some laughs, and a few 'aha' moments, grab a coffee (or a glass of wine) or go for a hot-girl walk and tune in.

Birthdays are the perfect time for introspection! Use these birthday journaling prompts to help you reflect on the past year & set intentions for the next:

1 - In what ways did I grow the most this year? What challenges or moments helped shape this growth?

2 - What am I most proud of accomplishing in the past year, personally and professionally?

3 - Are there any situations where I felt taken advantage of or that drained my energy? How can I honor my boundaries better this year?

4 - What are three big dreams or goals I want to pursue this year, and what steps can I take to make them a reality?

5 - What role do I want creativity to play in my life this year?

6 - What activities or experiences make me feel joyful and alive? How can I incorporate more of them into my daily life?

7 - What are my core values, and are my actions aligned with them? If not, what can I adjust?

8 - If I imagine my life five years from now, what do I hope it looks like? How can I take one small step toward that vision today?

9 - Are there parts of my story that I haven’t explored yet? What might I need to let go of or embrace to live authentically?

10 - What am I most grateful for as I reflect on this past year? How can I nurture more gratitude moving forward?
