Many people have a love-hate relationship with online dating. On the one hand, dating apps provide a convenient way to meet potential matches without even leaving your couch. On the other hand, trying to find others on the apps who align with your relationship goals and standards can be frustrating. Despite some of the highs […]
Whether you’re out playing the field, or snuggling every Thursday-Sunday on the couch with your beau, you might have considered where and which healthy boundaries in relationships come into play.

Dating in today’s world is a time-suck that requires proficiency with technology. Even if you don’t meet on an app, no one seems to want to talk on the phone anymore.

Modern, conscious living offers us the opportunity of challenging traditions and customs, or at least trying to understand them. However you may be celebrating this February 14th–aptly named Singles Awareness Day, Palentine’s Day, and Galentine’s Day–we’re here to make sure this rose, by whichever other name–smells just as sweet. We’ll provide context and ideas for […]
