Serena Kerrigan, aka SFK, turned Let's F*cking Date from a digital series into a bestselling card game, sold-out live shows, a Peacock series, and a community of over a million people. Her new book is out now to help you pimp your dating game. We get into which dates are potential, practice, or plot, dating multiple people at once, and her ritual for letting go of bad matches. Obviously, we break down the behaviors in all her tactics like rejection as exposure therapy, doing absolutely nothing after a date, and why leaning back changes the roles.
Mandy Grass, aka The Family Behaviorist, joins us this episode to get honest about balancing your BCBA side and mom side, plus how spotting a function is a lot harder when you're the variable.

Plus: dating as a "parenting expert," realizing she was fueling her own kid's whining, and more mom struggles.
