53. Will HumHum For Dates

On this week’s episode, our hosts welcome Guest Courting Cutie Danielle to talk about her experience virtually dating with humhum, a digital platform for conscious dating and connection. Before talking with Danielle, Chatrice and Luis catch up. Since last time Luis is thinking social connection outside their relationship and therapy is pushing back on Luis’ notion of productivity at work; meanwhile, Chatrice and bae went to the movies, visited museums, and are finalizing their baecation details. For the main topic, Daneille shares with our hosts her experience with humhum from the sign up, to the actual experience, and what happened after.
