This Dating App Founder Is Trying To Save Your Dating Life, One Match At A Time

Somehow this topic really hit close to home for me because I recently broke up with what I thought was my significant other for the rest of my tender life. I mean, I thought we had a thing but she thought we were growing apart by the day.

I know it’s part of life but I can’t help but thinking that building a relationship in the times we live in is what Tom Cruise really meant when he said : Mission Impossible.

While I’m considering my future single life as a shaolin monk, the statistic and a local dating app founder are telling me that I might not be the only one.

Indeed, Melanie Trudel is much more than a dating app founder. What I like about her approach, is the fact she really emphasize about educating her users.

Beyond using her platform GoSeeYou, she gives men and women insights about how to feel, connect and take risk with their dating life at a time where staying 2 meters apart from each other became the norm.

How do you create intimacy? How can you really get to know someone you can only physically interact with from 5am to 8pm?

The statistic don’t lie according to her. 44,37% of the population was single BEFORE the pandemic came.

Imagine what the numbers look like now! All the divorces, or other men or women that found themselves in a position to start things over like me.

You know where those people rush to after the fact? In case you’re still wondering, they’re going to dating apps like GoSeeYou.

Matter fact, after 3 years of operating the app. GoSeeYou has seen his a big traffic flow recently with over 50k to 150k exchanged messages between users.

Their audio/video features make it easier to connect in the safety of your home. You can pick and choose from a pool of local users and cease communication whenever you feel like it.

Valentine’s day is at the door. Whether you plan for a wild night or if you’re looking for a significant other.

Give GoSeeyou the chance it deserves and spark your inner flame while you’re at it.

The city has been quiet fashion wise over the years and as platform that mostly talked about fashion in its inception, we’ve felt it the most over here.

There would be sparks of hope here and there but besides Festival De Mode & Design, not a lot of things really stood out.

When I heard about ”The Glitch” it’s like I knew what it was about without nothing what it was about.

I mean good branding is good branding but it was more so who’s behind the good branding this time around. I had the chance to work with Myraï Lavoie in the past and one thing I can is : there’s a method to her madness.

Every artist has an eye and that eye is shaped by our views of the world and life experiences. Myraï had an interesting life.

One where being different is actually the move. One where if you don’t fit somewhere, you don’t try to get in the mold, you bend it.

For all the lack of support or misunderstand she got in Montreal, she found a place to be creative working or being in room with the likes of Paris Hilton & P. Diddy to name a few.

What she’s learned from coming out of her shell and experiencing the world she’s about the share it with us with her own fashion called ”The Glitch” tonight.

”The Glitch” is exactly what I thought it was going to be. A standout experience and experience and something you’ve never seen before just like its creator.

We are now entering an era where we want to know more about what is going on on the other side of the world.

How people are living, their culture and what is their reality compared to ours.

Sometimes the depiction of such reality is either unfair or made to look down at somebody. Other times, filmmakers have the challenge to depict a reality in a way to uplift what other cultures are bringing to the table.

Milan Bihlmann and Muammer Yilmaz are two filmmakers who know where they stand when it comes to that.

Rêves D’Afrique” is the epidemy of that. The two filmmakers decided to go to 7 countries in Africa to not only paint the picture for the world but to give the good people out there something we forget to give one another : ”a piece of yourself’.

Armed with a backpack, film gear and true altruism, the duo spread love and good deeds wherever they could throughout their trip.

Isabelle Mugwaneza Desmarais: An Unlikely Journey For An Unlikely Unique Success Story

A Change Is Coming…Finally?

I grew up in the 90’s and although we can only realize it now but seeing people like Isabelle Mugwaneza Desmarais striving in a space where not a lot of us do is what was missing this whole time.

The thing about representation is that you won’t know you need it until you need it. As most of us were just looking at society, we didn’t see ourselves but also normalized it.

I think Isabelle saw something that we couldn’t see in ourselves. The truth is not at the extreme it’s right in the middle. The intersection between being different but also a part of the ecosystem was what she saw.

Representation is not about doing what’s right because it’s right but more so because it needs to be done.

Starting her career in the public sector wasn’t a thrill anymore. Then she did some soul searching and probably came to the conclusion we all come to at some point in our existence:

Life Is A Joke

For her it was literal though. She figured out that humor and the business around it was her calling so what was the first step? Becoming a comedian herself and teach a thing or two to Dave Chappelle?

What about producing your own show with up and coming artists? Well, for Isabelle Mugwaneza Desmarais the start of this new chapter was simple as getting a non-paid internship.

Just For Laughs became her new home and with that started her mission to be at the forefront of what the landscape in comedy was to become.

Through thick and thin, work and dedication, intuition and know-how, she pulled through and the big way too!

Isabelle Mugwaneza Desmarais became the director of ZooFest. With her pulse on the scene, she fought and pushed for upcoming talents that are more than just tanned.

We’re seeing more BIPOCs getting a chance on stage and I would like to believe that this is just the beginning.

Speaking of ZooFest, if you want to see for yourself how this festival has grown in diversity and get a good kick out of it. You still have the opportunity to do so tomorrow as the last day of the celebration

With french performers like Lenny M’BungaAZMarine EllaMeryem BenouaAyoub Marceau & Hugo.

Live podcasting will also be a part of the last run of the show. In the corner of Jeanne-Mance & Maisonneuve, you can can get a good view, a good potential date, you get to see greatness in all shapes, size or color AND of course a good laugh!
