What if the secret to dating after divorce isn’t who you meet… but who you are when you’re with them?
In this episode, I’m joined by dating coach Erika Ettin, founder of A Little Nudge. Since 2011 she has been helping people navigate online dating from the very first click to the first date, with her work featured in The New York Times, The Washington Post, NPR, and CBS.
Together we explore how to date like a force after divorce. We dig into the most important question to ask yourself: “Do I like me when I’m with them?” Erika shares simple wins you can try right away, how to recognize the red flags in your own patterns that might be holding you back, and what’s really happening with today’s dating trends. She also answers the big question about dating apps — are they on their way out? 👀
And be sure to listen through to the end of the episode, where you’ll hear the very first listener share their own “I’m a force after divorce” story.
