❤️ Your Modern Dating Survival Guide

Hey Dateables,

Happy Wednesday! We're on cloud 9 returning from our vacations to Italy + Mexico...and digging into how to harness our dreams. Yue's alllllll about the dream journaling and lucid dreaming. Julie was skeptical at first...but ended up being blown away by this conversation and guest (and how much it related to helping with your love life). So def listen to this week's episode if you haven't yet.

We also have some exciting news about pre-orders of our book to share! We are excited to bring you some FREE gifts for every pre-order of the book. Hardcover, Audiobook, and Kindle are all eligible! If you pre-ordered already you can claim your gifts now on our site (go to step #2), and if you haven't yet, go get your copy and then redeem: https://howtobedateable.com/

Why are we doing this? Look, we get it. Pre-ordering a book isn't always the norm. We both admittedly only have pre-ordered books of authors we wanted to support. So we want to give you extra value and incentive to order early. Pre-order gifts are pretty standard, but it's up to the authors of how much they give away. We wanted to go big with a $108 value to make pre-ordering more beneficial to you and have it be an absolute no-brainer to order early (especially if you're already planning on doing so!). Because as debut authors, pre-orders really make or break the success of a book. And in the meantime, you'll have all our guides to hold you over until the book comes out in January!

We're already so gracious for all the support we've already gotten. And we're hoping this will help get even more people to act now! Let's make this world more dateable, Dateables!

This Is What You Need To Hear Right Now: Your dream relationship awaits

Staying on the theme of dreams: we know it's out there. Even if this feels so far away right now, we really truly believe you can have the love life you've always wanted + modern relationships may actually be the most fufilling partnerships in history. Yes, there are a lot of challenges with modern dating. But the benefits of having more equality, shared roles, communication, awareness of our mental heatlh, diverse relationship models, and even technology – can ultimately set us up to have healthier relationships for the long-term.

So yes, modern dating can be a slog. But only if you let it be! We truly believe there is a way out – to date differently and to not let modern dating culture get in your way (ahem our book haha).

The other day we looked back at our Sounding Board meet-up in San Francisco from three years ago. Pretty much every single person in that photo had transformed their dating lives – many in happy, healthy relationships! If they all can do it, so can you! Just stick with us, and you'll see :)

❤️ Forward to a friend that also needs to hear this as well.

What We're Up To This Week

🎧 New Episode Alert! Harnessing Your Dreams (For Dating)

As we mentioned up top, this week's episode SO freaking good. We loved talking with dream expert Charlie Morley about how your subconcius could be the missing ingrediant for clarity in your love life. We love how he mixes the practical (using dream interpretation as a starting point in therapy) to the woo-woo of lucid dreaming and asking yourself questions in your dreams. Go listen today if you haven't yet.

🥳 Get your Relationship Readiness Score

We're so excited that we released this first version of our Relationship Readiness Score last week! We've already seen TONS of people getting their scores and will be rolling this out more mainstream in the upcoming weeks. If you haven't yet, this tool will help you uncover how ready you are for a realtionship. And you'll also get a 5-day free jumpstart filled with relevant episodes, advice, and resources to get you to that next level!

🗳️ Julie's deep in election season, but more focused on local elections as we all tend to focus on the big flashy national news cycle. Yet local is where the actual change happens! Getting involved in your community can make all the difference, so def encourage you to think local wherever you live.

💒 Yue just realized this is the first year she doesn't have a wedding to go to, in over a decade mind you (excluding 2020).

Your Deal of the Week:

Yue is rocking her fall gear from Quince. She can't get over how high the quality is for the price!

Upgrade your wardobe now and get free shipping and 365 day returns.

Julie is also OBSESSED with Wildgrain frozen baked goods delivery subscription service. Upon coming back from Italy, she needed to have pasta ASAP so it was only logical that she immediately made the frozen pasta from Wildgrain. Which is so delicious btw!

Have a great week, all! And remember to stayyyy Dateable.
