Serena Kerrigan on Dating in Your 30s, Healthy Love & Why “You Are the Prize”

Serena Kerrigan joins Alexandria Rizik on *Love Sex LA: Unfiltered* for an unfiltered conversation about dating in your 30s, confidence, relationships, egg freezing, and what it actually takes to find healthy love. Serena — creator of the “You Are the Prize” philosophy and author of *Let’s Fucking Date* — opens up about the heartbreaks that shaped her, becoming “Serena Fucking Kerrigan,” and what happens when the dating expert has to confront her own patterns. Alexandria and Serena get into dating with intention without letting the biological clock or societal pressure send you into panic, the difference between confidence and emotional armor, wanting to be taken care of while still being fiercely independent, and Serena’s decision to freeze her eggs at 28. They also talk about why so many women mistake anxiety for chemistry, what changed when Serena finally experienced safe and healthy love with Felix, how female friendships influence our romantic relationships, and which *Sex and the City*character Serena really is. Plus, Serena puts her own dating philosophy to the test with Date or Ghost, rapid-fire dating questions, and one very important question: can “I’m the prize” ever become “I’m never the problem”?
