Listen Later

Welcome home, lovely!

In this episode of The Socially Delightful Podcast, I sit down with Sade Curry, a dating coach for divorced women, to unpack the intricate dynamics of relationships post-divorce. We dive deep into how divorce can reshape personal identity and friendships, emphasizing the vital role of self-care and emotional support through these life transitions. Sade opens up about her own journey of rediscovery after divorce, sharing valuable insights on rebuilding confidence, connections, and a sense of self.

We also explore how friendships can often take precedence over romantic partnerships and why nurturing a strong community is essential, especially when dating after a major life shift. Sade and I discuss the challenges of dating in smaller towns, offering practical tips on staying authentic while navigating those unique social landscapes.

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone going through a major life change or looking to strengthen their sense of connection and community.
