Modern dating is complicated, and most conversations about it either stay too polite to be useful or tip into territory that generates more heat than light. Casiah West and Chase chose a different approach when they joined Sean Kelly on the Digital Social Hour — an honest, wide-ranging discussion about what confidence actually means in relationships, why so many dating dynamics have shifted, and what it looks like to build a real connection in today's social landscape.
The conversation moves across a lot of ground — from the role of insecurity in attraction to the influence of social media on expectations — and it doesn't dodge the topics that usually get avoided on podcasts.
