In this enlightening and entertaining episode of Meaning and Moxie After 50, Dr. Wendy Walsh—psychologist, author, media personality, and Time Magazine’s Person of the Year—joins us for a deep dive into the realities of love, dating, and relationships after midlife. With her trademark blend of science and sass, Dr. Wendy unpacks everything from attachment styles and emotional intimacy to why dating apps aren’t the enemy—and how to use them wisely. Whether you’re navigating new love, rekindling an old flame, or just tired of swiping left, this conversation brings clarity, humor, and hope to the modern midlife and beyond dating scene.
We also talk candidly about sex and aging, financial dynamics in later-life relationships, and how to spot red flags without losing your spark. Dr. Wendy shares her personal love story—finding her husband at 58—and offers tangible advice on how to build not just romantic connections, but secure, respectful, joyful partnerships. It’s an episode full of wisdom, wit, and the reminder that love doesn’t expire—it just evolves.
