Are you ready to date after divorce?

We are CEOs of Fortune 500 companies but still can’t figure out the dating game. Have you had a date lately? Don’t use COVID-19 as an excuse as to why the only text messages you’re receiving are from your BFF. Dating after 40 has its challenges, especially if you’re divorced with children, trying to maintain a co-parenting relationship with your ex and handling your business all at the same time. You’re exhausted and not in the mood for a man’s BS. Sound familiar?


Dating sucks! I know it seems more comfortable to pull out a fresh pack of batteries and handle it — multiple orgasms with no strings attached. But at some point, you’re going to crave the attention that only a man can provide.

The milestone of turning 40 for women isn’t all rainbows and unicorns. For me, it was the opposite. I was shook. I looked back on my life and couldn’t figure out where did all the time go. Yes, I’d invested quite a bit of time in failed marriages and having children, but seriously, it was as if I woke up and — poof! — I was 40.


Dating is a crapshoot. You’d think that the older you get, the wiser you become, but that isn’t always the case. To have a chance in hell of successful dating, there are things to consider when you’re ready to dive into the deep end of the pool.

Nothing out of the ordinary; unless you count trying to juggle a career with a family. I'm that woman that has failed more times than she cares to count, but consciously decided to say what the he--; let me try it AGAIN! I proudly proclaim that I’m 40 something and a happily married woman (I’m not bragging but I’m on my third marriage) with three beautiful children. I can scream from the mountaintop that I finally got it RIGHT! I’ve kissed quite a few frogs to get to my Prince Charming. I plan on discussing all topics, the good-the bad and the ugly related to navigating through life’s obstacles and road blocks into building and keeping successful relationships while trying to maintain your sanity. No taboo topics here.
