If you follow me on Facebook and Instagram, you may have seen my Maui trip with my boyfriend and kids. Jeff and I decided to have a commitment ceremony, and it was magical.

Let me tell you, six years ago, I never thought I would find a love like this again. I hope that my story will inspire you to finally step out into the world and discover the amazing connections that are waiting for you on the other side.

Tune in to this episode on Finding Love Again After Divorce - My Story.

Key points covered in this episode: 

✔️ Dating teaches you about yourself. Seeing yourself reflected in others helps you learn your strengths and weaknesses. You can also hone your mental muscle in spotting red and green flags and setting boundaries.

✔️ Dating teaches you to open your heart again. This can be extremely tough if you’ve been cheated on. Once I allowed myself to trust, my intuition got even stronger than before. Your senses will speak to you and let you enjoy people’s company once more.

✔️ Build intimacy. One of the things I love about my current relationship is our strong foundation of honest communication. I highly recommend getting to know your date through consistent phone calls before meeting in person.

✔️ Maintain your identity outside of your relationship.  I remember sacrificing my values and interests during the course of my marriage. With my current boyfriend, I’ve sworn that I’d never let that happen to me again.

✔️ Do the work. It took me six years to do it, and I don’t regret a single day it has taken me. Learn to love yourself again and know what you REALLY want in a partner. Write it all down. Make it your mission to never settle for less.
