About this episode

Talia Koren chats with Dr. Jennie Young about her dating method, personal success, and insights on dating challenges.

I'm chatting with Dr. Jennie Young , creator of the Burned Haystack Dating Method and author of the brand-new book Burn the Haystack , on round two! This time, we're getting into everything from her own success story to how to spot toxic dating coaches to why the "ick" deserves way more credit than it gets. Jennie also breaks down how she uses Burn the Haystack beyond the apps, the rhetorical patterns that didn't make it into the book, and the exact opening prompt that reveals her matches political affiliation 99% of the time. At the end, we tackle a dating dilemma about a woman two and a half months into a relationship with a really nice guy she just isn't falling for.
