"To the Local DJ Who Had a Gravitational Pull" with Amber Abundance

We’re so back! In our season two premiere, we have the absolute pleasure of sitting down with the delightful and ridiculously charismatic Amber Abundance who tells us about how a series of almost-meet-cutes in the LA queer arts scene fueled an unrequited crush… Or was it? 👀 Before we get to what happened next, we dive into the context leading up to Amber’s story, taking notes on her approach to going “low and slow” in dating, and how she pursues connection as a full, real-life human outside of dating apps.
