Hey friends—real talk? I haven’t dropped a You’re Too Picky episode in over a month. Between summer slowdown and my own capacity hitting a wall, something had to give.

This little chaotic dating podcast has been such a fun ride... but I’ve realized I can’t keep running two separate shows. So we’re evolving.

Starting now, You’re Too Picky will live on as a bonus dating series inside my other show, Burnout-Proof. Same vibe, same voice, just one home that’s easier to maintain—and honestly? Makes way more sense for my life right now.

Don’t worry: the archives are staying up, and I’ll keep dropping new “Too Picky” episodes when I’ve got dating chaos worth ranting about. But for now? Follow me over on Burnout-Proof and keep an eye out for episodes labeled You're Too Picky.

We’re still dating while ambitious. Still burnout-prone. Still hot messes. We’re just doing it smarter.

Stay picky, babes. I’ll see you over there. 💅

Ever had someone start teasing you on a first date—and it didn’t land?

Yeah, me too.

This week, I’m diving into the weird little world of early relationship ribbing. Because I don’t care how many dating podcasts say "banter is flirting"—if I just met you, and you're already poking fun at my tattoos or my career? We're not flirting. You're being disrespectful.

In this episode, I talk about:

• The "8 Mile effect" and why we call ourselves out before others can

• The difference between playful teasing and crossing a boundary

• Why I actually think early ribbing is a red flag

And if being "too picky" means you don’t give strangers permission to make fun of you? Then yeah. I’ll own that.

What do you do when a date isn’t bad… but isn’t great either? In this week’s episode of the You’re Too Picky podcast, I break down a date that was the definition of “meh.” No sparks, no drama—just two hours of pizza, coffee, and a guy who could only talk about food.

We're talking:

• The fine line between giving someone a chance and wasting your time

• Why “not bad” isn’t the same as worth seeing again

• How to handle dates where the vibe is just… flat

• Why you don’t owe anyone a second shot just because they paid for lunch

If you’ve ever felt guilty for not giving someone a second chance just because they were nice, this one’s for you.
