In this solo episode, I break down the modern dating scene—flirty, fun, and fear-free. Responding to a listener submission, I dive into the truth about first dates, what makes them worth it (even when they don’t go anywhere), and why they can be powerful tools for self-discovery! Whether you’re dating again after a break, terrified of putting yourself out there, or just wondering if “he has to check every box,” this episode will help you reframe dating as a low-pressure, high-reward experience!
✨ Why first dates aren’t supposed to end in a love story
✨ How to use dates as market research for your heart
✨ Confidence, chemistry & checklists—what really matters?
✨ Real talk: Pressure, patience & personal pace in early dating
✨ Reclaiming your energy, magnetism & standards
This one’s for anyone navigating dating with curiosity, intentionality, and self-respect.
🎧 Listen in if you’ve ever wondered:
– “What if I’m just not ready?”
– “Is it okay to not feel sparks right away?”
– “Am I taking this too seriously?”
– “Can I date just for fun… and still be intentional?”

In this deeply candid and empowering episode, international pop star Sofia Reyes joins Yanina for a full-circle conversation over a decade in the making. From their early creative days together to now, they unpack how Sofia has evolved both as an artist and a woman. The two dive into everything from navigating the music industry, identity, age, femininity, heartbreak, self-worth, and her bold new creative chapter.
With her signature honesty and charisma, Sofia opens up about:

• Her evolution from girl group to global solo artist
  
• Letting go of labels and expectations in her career
  
• How her 30s are ushering in freedom, authenticity, and play
