Hosted by entrepreneur, mother, and modern-day reinventor Erin Madsen, Lay Low is where deep conversations meet real life. We talk about growth, relationships, healing, ambition, energy, identity shifts, business, motherhood, heartbreak, confidence, and building a life that actually feels good to live. Some episodes feel like a late-night conversation with your smartest friend. Some feel like therapy. Some feel like the push you needed to finally change your environment, trust yourself, and evolve. This is for the people in-between versions of themselves. The ones outgrowing old lives. The ones quietly becoming. So pour the wine, go for the drive, take the walk, or lay low for a minute. You’re right on time.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-14T22:17:12.332006+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lay-low-pod-7859524"},"episode":{"title":"Dating Advice I Wish I Had Sooner","slug":"dating-advice-i-wish-i-had-sooner","published_at":"2026-06-16T11:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lay-low-pod-7859524/dating-advice-i-wish-i-had-sooner","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/lay-low-pod-7859524","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/ea7e887d78d4249a46b2e2005a8da0f028726289daf10c40e23659c5a89224a1/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI3ZDJhYjRmNi04ZjdhLTRkNmYtYjMxOC03MjUxYmIxZTRjY2YiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIyNGQ0YTFlZC04NGRiLTRjNWItYWVmMy1iY2VjZTU4ZTg4Y2YiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OWQ2N2E3NzcyYTcxNTVmNTkxZDUzOWQiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmEyZjIxNmYxNThhMDExMDEwNWRjYjllL2VyaW4tbWFkc2Vucy1zdHVkaW8tY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi02LTE0X18yMy00Ny0yNy5tcDMifQ==.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/ea7e887d78d4249a46b2e2005a8da0f028726289daf10c40e23659c5a89224a1/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI3ZDJhYjRmNi04ZjdhLTRkNmYtYjMxOC03MjUxYmIxZTRjY2YiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIyNGQ0YTFlZC04NGRiLTRjNWItYWVmMy1iY2VjZTU4ZTg4Y2YiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OWQ2N2E3NzcyYTcxNTVmNTkxZDUzOWQiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNmEyZjIxNmYxNThhMDExMDEwNWRjYjllL2VyaW4tbWFkc2Vucy1zdHVkaW8tY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi02LTE0X18yMy00Ny0yNy5tcDMifQ==.mp3","summary":"In Episode 8 of the Lay Low Pod, Erin shares her honest journey through dating in three completely different chapters of life: a young college student searching for certainty, a newly divorced woman looking for security, and a 44-year-old who has learned to seek alignment instead. From awkward first dates and dating apps to heartbreak, healing, and learning to trust herself, Erin reflects on the lessons that changed how she approaches relationships today. This episode isn't about finding the perfect person. It's about becoming the person who knows what she wants, trusts her instincts, and recognizes the difference between chemistry, compatibility, and true connection. In this episode: • Dating at BYU and searching for the \"perfect\" husband • The chaos of dating after divorce • Why chemistry isn't the same as compatibility • Learning to trust your intuition • The danger of dating potential instead of reality • Why actions matter more than words • What love can—and can't—fix • The gift of dating later in life If you're dating, healing, starting over, or wondering if love is still out there for you, this episode is for you.
