Are you tired of swiping, hoping, and guessing your way through the dating world? Do you actually know what you want in a partner—or are you just winging it? Could you be unknowingly sabotaging your own love life? In honor of Valentine’s Day and the month of love, I sat down with renowned matchmaker (and former owner of It’s Just Lunch) Lisa Purdum to uncover what successful daters do differently. Spoiler: It’s not about luck—it’s about strategy. Lisa also shares her own journey of reinvention, proving that it’s never too late for a fresh start, in love or in life! Together, we banter about what daters get right—from keeping a positive mindset to being intentional about relationship goals. And, of course, we dive into some of the biggest dating missteps—like oversharing too soon, unclear expectations, and leaving things up to fate instead of having a game plan. We also tackle:  Why emotional connection should come before physical intimacy  How to balance communication so you’re not monologuing or interrogating  The power of self-awareness, setting boundaries, and thinking outside the box Whether you’re new to dating, back on the scene, or just looking to refine your approach, this episode is packed with insights to help you find the right match—without the unnecessary drama.
