Julie Krafchick

Active Dater turned Dating Sociologist

Julie Krafchick is an expert on human connection in a digital world. She's the co-creator and co-host of Dateable, which has been named one of the top podcasts about modern dating and relationships by the New York Times, The Huffington Post, AskMen, BET, and more. With the success of Dateable, Julie and her co-creator Yue Xu have grown their brand to include online courses, special events, and the limited series 'Exit Interview' with iHeart Radio.

With over a decade's experience working in Silicon Valley, Julie has applied her app design and qualitative research background to understand better how technology impacts human connection. She's interviewed thousands of modern daters and world-renowned experts to understand why people date the way they do. Previous guests have included Mark Manson, Emily Nagoski, and Candace Bushnell, as well as dating app creators, psychologists, therapists, behavioral researchers, and relationship coaches.

Julie's work with Dateable has been featured on CNN, NBC News, MSNBC, The Washington Post, and New York Public Radio. She's currently writing a book with her Dateable co-creator, Yue Xu (published by Simon & Schuster), to be released in 2025.
