Love, Brie

In this quick solo episode, I dive into what happens when you start dating outside your “type”—and no, I’m not just talking about looks. I’m talking energy, patterns, and the familiar dynamics we subconsciously gravitate toward. I share my own experiences with breaking the cycle, what I’ve learned about attraction, and why expanding your dating lens might be the key to finding something more align...

From my Seriously Single podcast archives: Okay guys—this one is for all my single girlies (and anyone who needs a reminder that you are the love of your life).

We talk about what it really means to come back to you : to unlearn the noise, stop...

Okay, let's talk about ghosting. It sucks. It's confusing, destabilizing, and can leave you spiraling, looking for validation and answers that might never come. In this solo episode, I share my own story of being ghosted — the anxiety it triggered, the constant urge to overanalyze and seek confirmation, and why chasing reassurance in dating can actually sabotage the connection you're h...

May is Masturbation Month, and we're going all in . In this episode of Love, Brie , I’m joined by certified sexologist and pleasure advocate Jordan Nelle for a candid, empowering conversation about solo sex, self-pleasure, and why it’s time we stop whispering about masturbation — especially when it comes to women's self-pleasure. We talk about: ✨ Masturbation techniques and tools that act...

In this episode of Love, Brie , I share what I believe is the best dating tip ever: stay single as long as possible . Yep, you read that right.

We get into why being single isn’t a waiting room for love, how it can actually be your greatest self-growth ph...

In this episode, I get personal about something that’s changed the way I date — and honestly, the way I see myself: dating with detachment . Not in a cold or disinterested way, but in the most self-loving, self-honouring way possible. I share where I used to be — dating from a place of anxiety, overthinking, needing clarity right now — and where I am now: dating with more ease, more softness, and...

In this episode of Love, Brie , I sit down with Canadian writer Simone Paget to talk about life in your 40s, being single, and the experience of living with our parents as adults.

Simone, who's in her 40...

In this straight-talking episode of Love, Brie , I’m calling it out: it’s time to stop shitting on dating apps and stop complaining about them. If you're stuck in a loop of frustration, blaming the apps for every dating woe, or constantly declaring that “dating is the worst” — this is your big sister wake-up call. I dive into why the apps aren’t the real problem, how complaining keeps you stuck, a...

Making friends as an adult can feel intimidating, but what if it’s not as hard as we think? In this episode, I dive into the art of building real friendships—not just meeting people, but actually forming meaningful connections. Inspired by last week’s episode on meeting people “in the wild,” this conversation is a reminder that social connection isn’t just about dating—friendship matters, too. I b...

A lot of people say, “Just get off the apps and meet people in real life.” Cool. But how? Because simply showing up somewhere—joining a hobby group, going to a coffee shop, or sitting at a bar—doesn’t magically mean you’ll meet someone. You actually have to make things happen. In this episode, I’m breaking down exactly what that means. It’s not about just existing in the right places—it’s about be...

In this episode, I dive into how my approach to dating has evolved and why I’m now dating from a more secure and confident place.

Feeling stuck this year? Same. It's not just you -- there's a major energetic shift happening and a lot of us are questioning what's next.

I joined a dating app this summer. This is something I didn’t think I would do. I swore up and down to friends and family, to even my dating coach, that I wouldn’t do it. “I like meeting men in the wild,” I said over and over again. “It’s more organic that way. It feels more aligned to me.” (This is still true, but we’ll get to that later.) In this week's episode I talk about my initial though...
