Flirting and seduction can be tricky business. For example, when you want to let someone else know you're interested, what do you even say? And how can you tell when someone is just being polite and friendly vs. actually flirting with you? Let's talk about it! Today's episode will tell you what you need to know about leveling-up your flirting game (in a non-sleazy way!), how read other people’s flirting cues, how to deal with rejection, and more.
I am joined by Dr. Alison Ash, a trauma-informed intimacy coach and educator, Stanford University Lecturer, author, and founder of TurnON.love. Some of the topics we discuss include:


Tips for ethical flirting.
The fine line between expressing attraction and desire for someone vs. manipulation.
How you can tell whether another person is really into you and isn’t just being nice--and how this is different when you're flirting online vs. in person.
How to build up your confidence so that you're not second-guessing yourself when you flirt.
How to de-escalate when someone flirts with you and you're not into it.
How to cope with rejection in the dating marketplace.
