Living Well with Janet: Dating Tips with Elite Matchmaker, Cassindy Chao

Published: Feb. 7, 2024, 1 a.m.

On a recent episode of ABG, I shared that I had a conversation with a matchmaker who offered me the tip to practice flirting more in 2024. Given we are about a week away from Valentine\u2019s day, I\u2019ve invited her to the pod for an extensive chat about dating. We talk about what makes two people compatible, common hang-ups that I (and probably other Asian American people) struggle with in dating, managing shifting gender role expectations, romancing versus womanizing, how a man\u2019s relationship with his mother can impact his relationship with you and how to manage boundaries from both the child and parent perspective.\nCassindy Chao is a matchmaker who comes from a family of Matchmakers. She is a former Goldman Sachs and JP Morgan Equities research analyst and happily married Mother of 3 but caught the matchmaking bug in college - matching dozens of couples at the \u201cWellesley College Asian Association Blind Date Semi-Formal\u201d. She believes in deep, purposeful connections based on shared values and common goals.\n\nAncient Wisdom Modern Love: https://www.awmlove.com/\n@matchmakercassindy\n__________________________________________\nHost: Janet Wang\nEditor: Victoria Cheng\n__________________________________________\nP A R T N E R S\n\u2022 BetterHelp: Get 10% off your first month with code \u201cABG\u201d at betterhelp.com/ABG\n__________________________________________\nC O N N E C T W I T H U S\n\u2022 Subscribe and Follow us @asianbossgirl on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/Amazon Music/YouTube/Instagram/Twitter/Facebook\n\u2022 Listener Survey: Let us know your thoughts on the podcast here\n\u2022 Shoutouts: Give a shoutout on the podcast here\n\u2022 Email: hello@asianbossgirl.com\n__________________________________________\nS U P P O R T U S\n\u2022 Merch: asianbossgirl.myshopify.com\n\u2022 Donate: anchor.fm/asianbossgirl/support\n\u2022 More about us at asianbossgirl.com\nLearn more about your ad choices.
