Anna from It Starts With Yoo talks with podcaster Kash Hovey (On Air with Kash) about mindful dating and wellness in LA’s dating culture. Kash reflects on how LA changed from the pre-reality TV era, where ambition, name-dropping, and hidden agendas shaped relationships, and discusses how meaningful connections often endure even when people drift apart. They explore how social media and constant access to information affect communication, risk-taking, and the ability to connect, along with concerns about performance, privacy, and fear of being posted online. The conversation touches on cancel culture, Me Too, hypocrisy in entertainment power structures, and examples like Terry Crews and Bill Cosby, emphasizing how narratives shift with podcasts and public scrutiny. Anna shares that her podcast began as personal journaling about commitment issues and trust in big-city dating, and Kash describes the traits he values in a partner. They close with Kash’s social links and Anna’s support and Instagram info.
