239: So Worth Exploring with Yash Tekriwal
Manage episode 335080164 series 2150239
Founder, Innovation Consultant, Data Scientist, and Executive and Career Coach, Yash Tekriwal went on 63 first dates in NYC, until determining dating apps leave a lot to be desired. Joining Chelsea 9:20 minutes in, he opens up about his controversial Tweet and dating journey, unpacking people’s most common assumption: if you’re still single, what went wrong? This episode is about how life and (self) love can actually go right.
Topics explored within: love at first sight vs the X-Factor, intellectualizing our stories vs feeling our stories, fake vulnerability, the upside of meeting in community vs one-on-one with the expectations of online dating, swiping for validation while in a committed relationship, the difficulty of letting oneself be loved, the cruel side effect of projection, the fine China analogy of trauma, the little you vs big you in family systems theory, the lonely reality that life moves on with or without you, opening to love when you’re healing vs healed, the moving target of success, leaning into strengths, and how aspirations and our own high standards can prevent us from letting love in today.
