If you’ve just re-downloaded a dating app for the first time in forever… welcome. You are so not alone.
Eight years ago, I thought I was done with dating for good. I was married, I was all in, and then… plot twist. Divorce. (Didn’t see that one coming.) A year ago I swore I’d never go back on the apps. Even a month ago I still wasn’t ready. But things change—and holy hell, have the apps changed too.
In this episode, I’m sharing how my entire approach to dating has shifted now that I’m 40, single, and way more self-aware. We’re talking before-and-after glow-up vibes, not just in my relationship status, but in how I view love, partnership, and self-worth.
You’ll hear:
Why I finally decided to dip my toe back into Bumble (and what surprised me most)
The biggest shift in how I’m approaching dating this time around
The unexpected, uncomfortable (and rarely talked about) moment that happens when you’re actually going after the life you want
And a popular song you might want to stop singing if you’re trying to keep your vibe high…
Whether you're in a new season, a scary transition, or just craving more realness around dating and personal growth—this one’s for you.
✨ So get comfy… because this episode is about to swipe right on the version of you who isn’t settling anymore. ✨
