In this episode of Dating Yapps, I sit down with the brilliant Shade Adekunle—therapist, podcast host, and all-around wisdom queen—to unpack the beautiful chaos of modern dating. We talk about everything from balancing vulnerability and self-protection (hello, boundaries!) to why courageous communication is the ultimate turn-on. Shade spills some seriously helpful tea on building self-worth, dating after a breakup, and how to actually ask for what you need in a relationship without spiraling. Plus, we dish about how rom-coms may have totally warped our brains and finish with some rapid-fire therapist-approved advice you do not want to miss.
