Dating After a Divorce – Interview
Happy to help out on this piece about common challenges women face in dating after a divorce.
This is a really tough time for so many people. The most important thing is to be gentle with yourself, and look behind you at what you have accomplished – leaving a relationship that wasn’t working. It wasn’t easy, it took courage, and you need to give yourself time to heal. Remember you don’t have to get back into the dating pool right away. It is ok to focus on yourself and find some joy in being alone. Independent. And in control. Focus on yourself, and getting healthy in body and spirit. This is a great time to focus on doing things for yourself you couldn’t do before – don’t be afraid to make a list, and take action.
Putting energy into being your best self will pay off in confidence earned. Knowing yourself, and what you need, will also help you make better choices in your next relationship. Let confidence, health, and self respect be your calling cards – you don’t need a relationship to be complete, you want a relationship to enrich you. There is nothing more attractive that a woman who takes care of herself, knows what she wants, and is able to be alone.

Hi Julia,
Thanks for your comment, and sharing your inspiring story. Knowing that healing is possible, and that love can come again when we are brave enough to keep trying, is the kind of message people need to hear when they are struggling after a break up.
I hope you continue to find connection and love in your new relationship.
