June 2020 – This Just In…
MONTHLY NEWSLETTER: Holy Sh*t, It's June.
Dashing Date was in The New York Times!
We usually kick off each BTS newsletter with a monthly dating challenge but we were just too excited about this… Dashing Date was in The New York Times, and in a big way!
Owner of Dashing Date, Kavita Ajwani, was interviewed on ‘Together Apart’, which is The New York Times podcast.
Soon after, they asked us to collaborate on a joint virtual speed dating event, hosted by Kavita herself! The event was for New Yorkers and it was a special experience, to say the least.
After the event took place, a reporter reached out for a follow-up interview for a written article. Not only that, the article ended up making the front page of The New York Times website! You can read the article and listen to the podcast by clicking here.

MONTHLY CHALLENGE
If you had to guess this month’s dating challenge based on this photo, what would you say it is?
The answer is: NOTHING! Zip, zilch, diddly-squat. That’s right, this June, we’re not putting you to work because, well, we’ve been challenged enough lately!
So instead of a challenge, let’s set an intention this month, which is to simply be kind(er). Kind(er) to each other and kind(er) to ourselves.
That’s all folks!
