How did I get to 38 and still dating? Easy! I share what happened in my twenties and the 10 year ex-boo, and I'll also share what lies we tell ourselves (and that others tell us) that you absolutely must forget if you want to date well and successfully.

Have you ever wondered why you keep attracting broken people? A great girlfriend of mine told me she KNOWS she attracts broken men and she’s okay with it. What?
