Welcome to Living Well (or Trying To), I’m your host Janet—wellness enthusiast, yoga pose outfit-checker, and someone who’s maybe 73% thriving at any given moment. On this show, we talk real-life wellness: the messy, the mindful, and everything in between.
This is a place where we love our veggies and meditation, but we also love a good night out dancing, pizza and ramen, and the occasional tequila shot…or 3. And we know that 5am mornings and 20-step routines are for some people, but not I - because I’m a night owl, but I can be healthy too. ‘Living well’ means different things to different people - what does a life well lived mean to you? Let’s dig in together.

Episode 43: 5 Dating Archetypes: Reimagining Modern Dating with Yue Xu
Let’s be real—modern dating can feel like a chaotic mess of apps, mixed signals, and awkward coffee chats. In this episode, I sit down with dating coach and podcast host Yue Xu (Dateable podcast) to unpack how building a friendship first might be the most underrated—and powerful—strategy in love. We talk about why so many of us perform on dates, how to tell if you actually like the person or just the date activity, and what it means to connect with someone as a human before labeling it romantic. We also talk about the 5 Dating Archetypes - The Maverick, The Achiever, The Thinker, The Energizer, and The Dreamer - which are you? Whether you’re swiping, reconnecting with an old flame, or just trying to feel less weird on first dates, this one’s for you.
Catch part one of this conversation in Episode 42: The 30-Day Relationship Incubator: Reimagining Modern Dating with Yue Xu. Yue’s new book How to Be Dateable
