  • Good Advice

    Hi I like the general content but I do have one issue. Quite often, like in episode 293, I’ll hear the woman talk about a dinner date and that things went well but they knew the guy wasn’t the one for them then say he paid and they went home. Women in this day and age should insist on going half as paying for dinner soon mounts up for the guy. If you know he’s not the one for you then it’s even worse to let him pay.

  • Well done podcast

    I think this podcast and host has evolved. The advice makes sense and is actionable. I also had issues with a situationship that I eventually went no contact with, and then met my solid current relationship of 2 years. I’ve listened to her advice recently, to understand my past attachment to the situationship, after the fact, and it is solid. Well done, Talia!

  • A Must-Listen for Daters!

    As a 49-year-old single parent coming out of a long marriage, stepping into modern dating has honestly felt like landing on another planet. The last time I dated, apps didn’t even exist — and navigating this new world has been equal parts overwhelming, confusing, and unexpectedly hopeful.

    Talia’s guidance on dating intentionally has been such a grounding force for me. I deeply appreciate the thoughtful, compassionate, and practical way she approaches relationships and connection. Instead of fee... more

  • Too many commercials

    Too many commercials and reruns Love Talia but maybe she should switch to once a week for fresher material

    The amount of commercials have gotten too distracting and makes her cred questionable when they get written in like real dating advice

  • Great podcast! Too many ads.

    Talia is so insightful and I learn so much but sometimes it feels like there are about 15 minutes of ads in the middle of a podcast.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

297. Hidden Ways Low Self-Worth Shows Up in Dating (And How to Change It) w/ Dr. Marisa G. Franco
Q: What should someone do if their partner seems to have low self-worth and resists reassurance?
Validation is usually more effective than trying to rebuild their self-worth for them. Listen, bear witness to their feelings, and offer grounded support. If needed, acknowledge their struggle and avoid forcing affirmations that may feel inauthentic or manipulative.
297. Hidden Ways Low Self-Worth Shows Up in Dating (And How to Change It) w/ Dr. Marisa G. Franco
Q: How can someone start building self-worth if they feel unworthy?
Begin with acknowledging all emotions without judgment, practice self-soothing and care, and use memory-focused strategies like memory reconsolidation to reshape how past hurts influence present responses. Small, honest validations from within, not external reassurance, are key to long-term change.
297. Hidden Ways Low Self-Worth Shows Up in Dating (And How to Change It) w/ Dr. Marisa G. Franco
Q: What is the difference between self-worth and self-esteem, and how do they show up in dating?
Self-worth is about openness to your internal world and feeling that you matter, whereas self-esteem can be more about external assessments of self—people with high self-esteem can still have low worth if they cannot acknowledge their own feelings. In dating, low self-worth leads to fear of rejection and avoidance, while higher self-worth drives authentic action and willingness to take risks.
291. Are No Red Flags a Green Flag? (First Date Vibe Check)
Q: How did the date end and what were your feelings afterward?
The date ended with a somewhat awkward kiss and a hug; Jenny felt surprised it lasted as long as it did, but considered it a normal part of dating with new people, and she discussed subsequent texting and the possibility of a second date.
291. Are No Red Flags a Green Flag? (First Date Vibe Check)
Q: What was your recent dating experience like with Breeze and Steve?
She explains the app mechanics, the venue, the multi-venue date, and the general flow from matching to meeting, noting there were green flags like good conversation and shared interests, but also occasional awkward moments.
