About this episode

With societal pressures and a ticking clock, being newly single in your mid-30s can be challenging. In today’s episode, I want to share advice on navigating being newly single and the mindset for dating, and honouring the desires you have without feeling hopeless or overwhelmed.

We'll cover:

  • Grieving a future you thought you would have
  • The opportunity for reframe
  • Comparisons to other people’s lives
  • Creating a full and vibrant life for yourself
