    Lily Womble is the one!
    I discovered Lily Womble on TikTok, and I don’t even go on TikTok any more because her podcasts and dating & life advice have taken my focus off of the need to scroll for dopamine hits. This is real life-changing stuff. Whether you’re a woman or dating or a feminist or none of the above, her perspective on questioning cultural standards and biases and self empowerment & compassion is eye and mind opening. You know she genuinely cares about people or she wouldn’t work as hard as she does to give of herself so openly & fervently. Thank you, Lily, for continuing to share your quick-witted, heartfelt, always fun insight and support!

    what you want exists
    And this podcast is case and point. It is the only form of dating advice and coaching that has provided me hope, optimism, and inspiration and I have been looking for something like it for years and was convinced it didn’t exist! I can’t stop listening.

    Speaking directly to me
    After years of trying to get dating advice and opinions nothing has ever felt right to my heart or helpful. Finding Lily has changed it all for me and I feel like she’s my best friend speaking to me directly like she just truly understands my struggles and my heart. A lot of incredible tools to first and foremost to love and be kind to yourself and eventually know you’ll find the person that is right for you! What’s meant for you won’t pass you by. Thank you lily

    The best dating coaching podcast around!
    I stumbled upon Lily’s podcast by accident (or divine intervention one could say) about a month ago and since then have binged the first 89 episodes and just finished her book! I’ve never felt so seen and so accepted as someone who has struggled in the dating world for years. I’ve also never felt so hopeful that my person really does exist and is heading my way! Thank you Lily. I always wanted to believe it was true but knowing that you’re in Brooklyn believing it for me is the encouragement I’ve always needed. I’m even planning on joining the Main Character Dating cohort this August! Can’t wait to see where my dating life is this time next year 🥳

    Great podcast!
    Lily always feels authentic and has great insights to share. You feel seen and heard, but you also walk away with something to think about or a tip that you can actually apply in your life. 10/10

    I feel seen 🥲
    Thank you! I am listening to the how to meet in person and you have my attention! Actionable steps, realistic expectations, clearly laid out. You’re in my head! Gonna add this to my podcast rotation ❤️ Edit: knocking off a star because pretty much all the episodes end with a sales pitch. The advice around apps is also giving me whiplash; first it’s ditch the apps, then to complete the checklist you need to have just one app but only spend 20 min on it, then it’s you can find love without apps but there are no practical steps to achieving it. As someone who never wants to be on any apps ever again, the app advice is extremely irrelevant. Also I got an email saying to have the “opportunity” to “invest” in the couple thousand dollar coaching course you also have to be in therapy, which like I get, but also therapy is not useful for everyone and it’s also like really expensive and time consuming. I don’t want to spend my time and money thinking about dating, I want to actually date.

    Life changing
    I can’t even explain all the ways that Lily has made my life better. Her wisdom is earned and thoughtful. She brings you into a big warm hug with each episode! Enjoy!
  • christina920
    So relatable
    I feel like Lily hits the mark every single episode she puts out! Lily always feels authentic and you can tell she wants her listeners to feel seen and learn from each episode.
  • Jcole50
    Love love love
    Such a great listen, no matter where you’re at in your journey. Very inclusive. Very thoughtful and intentional. All the things you forgot you needed to hear. I missed the breakthrough cohort deadline this year messing around in Europe (literally yesterday 😭) and now I’ll be kicking myself until it opens again at the end of the year. If you’re looking for a supportive community about your dating and/or your feelings about dating, Lily can show you how to build one or you can join her mastermind community. Can’t wait. ❤️
  • R2Row Salazar
    Not just for women
    I’ve been listening to this podcast for months. The perspective it provides has been very insightful. We all struggle in very similar ways and knowing there are people like Lily helping guide us through those struggles is comforting. Keep up the great work!

    Lily is my new dating BFF
    Are you looking for a new bestie? One who will pump you up, who reminds you not to settle for less than what you want, and one who will give you really clear tools and strategies to show up for yourself in all your relationships? Look no further. Lilly is that bestie. Listening to the Date Brazen podcast has empowered me to SHOW UP for myself in my dating life, my friendships, and in my relationship with myself. I love the clear tools and strategies, live coaching sessions to feel seen and not alone, and Lily’s gentle cheerleading through hard moments. I’ve never felt so hopeful about what is possible for me. Thank you Date Brazen!
  • hannah0987654
    I love this podcast!!!
    Lily is so validating!!!! I listen to this podcast any time I’m feeling discouraged or down about my search for love, and it never fails to make me feel better. I feel so seen and understood. Thanks for keeping my vibrations high Lily!
  • wordssave
    I cried while listening to an ep as i do to Lily’s tik toks
    Everything Lily says just hits me where it hurts and reaches my deepest insecurities which I know sounds painful but it’s in the best way. It has helped me to know that rejection and dying alone terrify other people just as much as they terrify me. We’re gonna be ok y’all. We’re gonna be okay.

    SO GRATEFUL FOR THIS PODCAST AND COMMUNITY
    This podcast leaves me feeling affirmed and hopeful not just towards dating but about myself! Such a gift! If you are single (and even if you aren’t) and are disillusioned by dating or the prospect of finding a partner, you must listen to this. So many helpful tools and mindset shifts!! Thank you endlessly!
  • Smilespeechie
    Finally!!!
    I LOVE THIS PODCAST! Finally there is a podcast for singles that gives great advice, affirms where we are now and encourages us in where we want to go! Thanks to Lilly for finally recognizing and do something positive to address the dating crisis we are experiencing in this country!! Love love love!
  • KellyR25
    Transformative!
    I LOVE this podcast. I saw Lily on TikTok and I loved her energy. The first video I watched was how to live your best main character life. I started listening to Lily’s podcast and whoa boy did it change my perspective on dating. I feel so much more confident and so much better about taking chances in dating. Lily is also just so real and I love how her topics relate to everyday life and self love as well. I now know I don’t chase because I’m the tequila not the lime! Thank you Lily!
  • MrEnglish599
    Great Podcast
    I was introduced to this podcast through TikTok and I really enjoy it. I love how Lily inspires her listeners to believe and strive for getting what they really want in a relationship. Also,as a man, sometimes I wasn’t aware of how patriarchy has negatively affected us too. I will keep learning from this.

    This podcast helped me shift my mind on dating
    Where do I start: well, I hate dating. I feel like I connect with men who dumped me a few months later or cannot find someone who wants to try to make a relationship work. Or I’m just a rebound for some guy going thru a massive life transition. Each time someone talks to me, I try to make something work or try to give them a chance. Lilly’s podcast has helped me shift that scarcity mindset and realize I need to be the main character of my own dating life- and also realize I have a lot to offer and that it’s a two way street on making a relationship work. And never settle. After listening to a few episodes, I was talking to someone on bumble who gave me one word answers to some basic get to know you questions. So, after trying to have a messaging conversation, I realized that this was someone who didn’t make me feel wanted or desired…so I unmatched with him. It felt empowering and like I took the reins of my own love life finally. I credit Lily’s podcast with helping me dig deep and find that empowerment and belief in my own worth.
  • Luckiest.Girl.In.The.Universe
    Too much negative ranting
    I listened to the episode about being a main character in your life and there was just so much negative ranting about how hard it is today when you get older and it just went on and on AND ON … AND ON ….. (stuff that we as women have heard 1 million times and I don’t need to hear somebody ranting about it) I understand about hearing where the person was coming from before they became the main character but I never even got to the part about talking about becoming a main character all I heard was a bunch of negativity while I was stuck in my car unable to change what I was listening to due to traffic…… finally just turned the volume off feeling stressed and frustrated.

    My new favorite pod!!! ♥️
    I’m a new fan of Date Brazen. Earlier this week I was scrolling TikTok and I came across the amazing Lily. After watching one video I knew this was something I needed and I immediately began to binge her podcast. Her topics are compelling and her guests are moving and I can’t get enough of it! My new favorite mantra is, “When I trust myself, I am doing the right thing”. ♥️ If you are looking for an empowering pod, this one’s for you!
  • kay_ne
    Lovely podcast
    Very informative and very engaging host!
  • MtntoCoast
    Absolutely incredible
    Phenomenal podcast. Listened to one episode at the recommendation of a friend, now I can’t stop binging them. Lily has opened my eyes to so many things already!
  • NancyMcTalks
    Say YES to ♥️
    You don’t even have to be seeking a date or relationship with another to get something out of this podcast. Self-care and boundaries!
  • thankyou278
    YES!
    Transformative. Enlightening.
  • kyleTXwahoo
    As Empowering As It Gets
    Listening to Lily is so comforting because she doesn’t want women to settle or change anything about themselves or what they want. That is not the dating advice I usually get! Love the different people she brings on the podcast. A great listen before you open that dating app!
  • Cxcggujm17
    She gets it!
    Lily has a way to make you feel seen, validated and heard without even knowing your personally. Thanks for saying what others won’t say about dating and the affects it has on our mental health!
  • hashtagsinglepod
    Like an awesome hug on a really bad day
    Listening to Lily is like having a great, confident best friend who knows you better than yourself and believes with her whole heart that you’ve got this. Her insight and action plans make sure that you don’t leave just feeling better but knowing how to take charge of your dating life in a strong empowered way. If you’re feeling lost and vulnerable in the sea that is dating, Lily is your lifeboat!!
  • sjsethi13
    One of my favorite podcasts!
    Lily’s energy is infectious! She shares new perspectives on so many old ideas and patterns that play out in dating. She encourages her listeners to align with their true self and learn to trust their journey. None of her advice is ever fear driven but rather, leaves space and inspiration for abundance and joy.
  • Zaz810
    Fresh + Empowering!
    Lily is the real deal—what an incredible offering this podcast is. From worthiness to desire (and everything in between) she gives dating and relationship advice that actually works and empowers women.
  • Amanda_Carly
    Love Lily!
    I haven’t found any other ‘dating’ podcast that’s so zoned into helping me figure out what I want/need, rather than just providing the steps to to match with someone. It’s refreshing - and eye opening!
  • clemsonkd
    Refreshing Approach
    Her optimistic and yet grounded approach to dating is refreshing. As someone who no longer is interested in figuring out what I need to change about myself to attract someone and has an inner voice telling me that there is something greater out there for me, I find this podcast empowering. The only thing I don't like is on several episodes it feels like an informercial for her Brazen Breakthrough which is off putting. 1 minute promo is fine - 9+ minutes is overkill and cheapens the amazing substance.
  • AndreainChicago
    A revelation
    Feminist dating advice- yes!! It didn’t occur to me that this is why other dating books and advice always feel terrible. lily isn’t reaching you how to “catch a man”- she’s like a therapist making you do the introspection to realize what you are really looking for, combined with tactical tools and methods to then go out there and find it. Have shared with all my single friends!
  • broadcityforever
    Belonging! Mindfulness! Self compassion!
    This podcast has it all! Lily has helped me feel less alone, more confident, and more positive about identifying my goals and believing in myself when it comes to my dating life. I have shared this podcast with several friends and it has helped create a space for us to support and encourage each other in a more wholistic way. I am not alone in my dating challenges and I deserve extraordinary love from myself and from my future partner! Thanks lily and the Brazen team!
  • Jelisha Gatling
    A must-listen if you’re feeling stuck with dating!
    This podcast is absolutely fantastic and perfect if you are on the verge of hopelessness when it comes to dating. Lily gives so many awesome tangible tips and she has such a vibrant energy. I am still in awe over how much just listening to a few episodes has empowered me not only in dating but in many aspects of my life. The shift has been unreal. If you’re feeling stuck in dating, don’t deny yourself of this gem for another minute!

    A From A Human Behavioral Specialist
    As a specialist in human behavior and willful motivation I think Lily’s podcast does a great job of breaking down self-limiting beliefs in tangible ways! Definitely a podcast worth subscribing to if you’re looking to get out of the dating rut!
  • LaurenMaek
    What I’ve been waiting to hear
    Lily brings the dating gospel to a captivated audience - if you are a strong woman with any amount of dissatisfaction in your dating life, this podcast is for you.

    A mystery we can live with
    The whys and hows of relationships and dating are mysterious, but Lily’s energizing and entertaining podcast helps us live in that mystery with optimism and hope.

    Thanks for sharing your story and modeling how to be thoughtful about undertaking this big ol dating journey!
  • Max is NOW!
    Yes. YES. YUSSSS!
    Lily Womble is a great gal and a great coach. She doesn’t just want to sell you a method to get dates, she wants you to be happier and date healthier. I cannot recommend her podcast and services enough. Great point-of-view, great person, great guests.
  • SRM_134
    This is exactly what I’ve been looking for.
    Dating can be really stressful and I often don’t think of it as something “fun”. But this podcast has totally changed my mind! Every week there’s a new concept or idea that Lily explains that completely changes the way I view myself and what I’m worth. Absolutely love.
