Together, they explore how intentional, phone-free spaces create deeper conversations, stronger chemistry, and real opportunities for both romantic and platonic connection. This is not a singles event and it\u2019s not networking. It\u2019s an evening designed to help you unplug, talk like a human again, and experience what dating and socializing feel like without doomscrolling, distractions, or performative small talk. Expect thoughtful prompts, honest dialogue, and a room full of curious, emotionally available people who are actually worth putting your phone down for. Come for the connection. Leave with clarity, community, and a reminder that presence is still the most attractive quality in the room. &amp;nbsp; \u2600\ufe0fget yourself a last minute holiday gift and go to https:\/\/agapeescapes.com\/ &amp;nbsp; use ESCAPES150 for an early bird discount! \u2600\ufe0f Be sure to use the promo code: roundtable50 to join Maria\u2019s community or submit your own dating question! \ud83d\udc49 https:\/\/www.matchmakermaria.com\/ \u2728 Don\u2019t forget to order Maria\u2019s book, &amp;nbsp;follow us on social, and leave a review if you\u2019re feeling lovable and likable. \ud83d\udc95 \ud83e\udd29 &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;Check out My Websites and Socials! &amp;nbsp; \ud83d\ude4c \ud83d\udc96Podcast Website: https:\/\/www.askamatchmaker.com\/&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Agape Match Website: https:\/\/agapematch.com\/&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Matchmaker Maria TikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@realmatchmakermaria&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Matchmaker Maria Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/matchmakermaria&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Agape Match Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/agapematch\/&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Agame Match Facebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/AgapeMatch&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\udc96Agape Match Twitter: https:\/\/www.x.com\/AgapeMatch&amp;nbsp; \ud83d\ude4b\u200d\u2640\ufe0fOur Producer Venetia AKA V&amp;nbsp; Website - https:\/\/www.venetiageras.com\/&amp;nbsp; Twitter - https:\/\/X.com\/venetiaageras&amp;nbsp; Instagram - https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/venetiaageras\/&amp;nbsp; \ud83c\udfa5 by WTF Media Studios Website - https:\/\/www.wtfmediastudios.com\/home&amp;nbsp; ABOUT THIS PODCAST \ud83d\udd17 Ask a Matchmaker is your weekly go-to podcast for all things love and relationships.
