Join me on my journey as a 45 year old to find my big love. Seven years of dating stories with honest unfiltered humor.
This week I share two sides of my story: the joy of feeling truly seen in a new relationship, and the courage to finally speak about a painful chapter from my past. For the first time, I’m opening up about an abusive relationship that changed me—and how therapy, friendship, and green flags have helped me reclaim my power.
From launching a business straight from my Jamaica daydreams to introducing J-Man to the kids (yeah, I did that), I’m all about bold moves this week. Spoiler: things are going really freaking well. Oh, and if you think your dating life is messy, wait until you hear the rant from a guy who’s mad about septum piercings, tattoos, and independent women. Bless his heart.
...This week I’m spilling the tea on belly flop parties, surprise costumes, and what it feels like to finally date someone who plans the trip (and buys the Starbucks). Plus, I share why sticking your tongue out in dating pics is an automatic “nope” and laugh through the infamous “no-go” first-date list.
This week I’m juggling school drop-offs, fresh starts, and the wild idea that love really is about slowing down and actually knowing someone. Plus, I share a few laughable (and cringey) confessions from men about what they find ‘unattractive’—spoiler alert: it’s ridiculous. Grab your coffee, your backpack, and your sense of humor for this one.
Fan mail made my week, a coworker crush popped up on Hinge, and my brunch date ended with a dog fight (literally). Add in a matchmaker pushing a “randoms only” guy, a dating app ego the size of Texas, and the awkward reality of dating someone who listens to this podcast… let’s just say, it’s been a week.
This week, I’m giving an update on my latest date—because of course there’s a twist. Turns out, someone my date used to see also has history with my ex... and now she’s got opinions. Not only that—she’s apparently on a mission to find me. Cool, cool, cool.
Also sharing a few funny and oddly insightful things I’ve seen from ChatGPT lately (shoutout to Alex, my most loyal digital companion...
You know dating is messy when your date casually mentions his ex—who turns out to be your ex-husband’s current love interest. I cannot make this stuff up. In this episode, I break down the wildest “small world” moment I’ve had on a date—and give you an update on how things are going with my last matchmaking setup.
This week I’m raising a glass to my parents’ 50th wedding anniversary (yes, FIFTY!) and reflecting on what half a century of love looks like. Spoiler: it’s not all roses, but it is pretty inspiring. I’m also spilling the tea on my very first matchmaking date—did sparks fly? Did I Google him mid-dinner? Tune in for all the updates, awkward moments, and a little perspective on love at ever...
What do you do when dating apps start to feel like digital doom scrolling? You hand your phone to your friend and let her take the wheel. In this episode, I talk about my friend’s attempt at becoming my personal matchmaker—swiping, messaging, and maybe even setting me up with someone who isn’t holding a fish.
In this episode, I’m fresh off vacation and even fresher off a few dating disappointments. From married men in miserable marriages to the eternal mystery of why men keep holding fish in their dating profiles—I'm talking about all of it. If you’ve ever swiped, sighed, and thought, “Is this really it?”—this one’s for you. Let’s vent, laugh, and maybe cry (just a little). Because dating aft...
Curious about what really goes down at a sex club (besides the obvious)? In this episode, I pull back the velvet curtain and give you a no-holds-barred overview of what to expect—without actually participating (yet ). From the vibe and the rules to the rooms you definitely don’t want to accidentally wander into too soon, I break it all down with curiosity, humor, and just a hint of wide-...
We’re not married anymore, but we’re still a family. In this episode, I reflect on a scary moment, how it brought clarity, and what it means to co-parent with grace and grit. It’s not always easy, but damn—sometimes it’s beautiful.
This week, I’m pulling back the covers—literally and figuratively—to talk about two loaded topics in today’s dating world: sneaky links and body count. (If you don’t know what those mean, don’t worry. I googled it so you don’t have to.)
We’re diving into:
What qualifies as a sneaky link (Is it just a late-night booty call with better branding?)
Why the term “body count” needs to ...
No prince, no magic meet-cutes — just me, two kids, and way too many churros. This week, I’m recapping our Disney trip: the highs (character hugs, kid smiles, and a few quiet moments of joy), the lows (meltdowns — theirs and maybe mine), and the real talk about what it’s like to solo parent through the chaos of the “Happiest Place on Earth.” Spoiler: I’m exhausted, my feet hurt, and I’ll...
It’s time we talked about the things that really matter when it comes to dating — expectations, accountability, and yes, sometimes size. Let’s get honest about what we say we want, how we show up, and why it’s not just about what someone has, but what they do with it. From awkward conversations to setting standards, I’m breaking it down with a little humor, a little heart, and a lot of r...
Things started off great — good vibes, good convo, and maybe a spark. But then… yeah, it took a turn. I’m sharing a story about a date that looked promising and quickly flipped into what the actual hell. Plus, a little Sam update (because of course there’s more), and a look at what it really means to reset after a handful of dates that don’t go anywhere. If you’ve ever asked yourself “Sh...
This week, I'm sharing the story of a man who went from cozy cuddles to total radio silence in 72 hours flat. One minute we’re having deep convos and sharing a bed—the next, I’m staring at my phone wondering if he joined the witness protection program. Spoiler: he didn’t. He just ghosted. So I did what any self-respecting woman with WiFi and self-worth would do: I blocked him.
In this ep...
Today we're cutting through the clichés, sis. 'Tall, funny, and has a job' might sound cute on a dating profile—but let’s be real, that’s the bare minimum. What we’re really craving? Depth. Safety. A man who can sit with emotions without trying to fix, flee, or make a joke out of it. In this episode, I’m breaking down what women say they want… and what we actually mean when we say it. Be...
Ever gone through a phase where your give-a-damn is broken and your standards are... on sabbatical? Welcome to what I lovingly call the Smut Goblin Phase — a glorious, chaotic chapter where healing sometimes means making out with a stranger and reclaiming your body one bad decision at a time.
No shame. No apologies. Just raw stories, real laughs, and the occasional reminder that your wil...
Let’s take it back—to basement couches, slow jams, and that wild era where your biggest goal was not getting caught by someone’s mom. In this episode, I’m diving deep (but keeping it PG-13... mostly) into the golden age of making out, dry humping, and teenage tension on squishy, questionably-scented water beds.
I’m also giving you an update on Sam , serving up some fresh funnies, and sha...
