from Love-ly: Exploring Modern Relationships · host Immigrantly Media

This week, we're featuring an episode from Dating Intentionally, a podcast dedicated to making dating more enjoyable. Dating coach Erika Ettin joins Talia Koren to break down the mindset shifts that make dating feel calmer, clearer, and more intentional. You’ll learn about dating NATO (not attached to outcome), avoiding pen-pal dynamics, reading texting patterns, and staying open without over-investing too early. At the end, they dive into a text support question from a listener about a promising first date that turns into confusing texting, and how to handle it.
