Episode #23 Essential First Date Dont's (Part 2)
If you're a single woman over 40 and you're serious about finding a real, emotionally available partner — this one's for you. In this episode, I'm sharing the most important first date DON'Ts to help you stop wasting time and start getting clear on what actually moves you closer to love. These are the same patterns I had to break to find my own Mr. Right (yes, it happened in my 40s — and yes, it's absolutely possible for you too).
Think of this episode as a loving, intuitive wake-up call. I’m not here to sugarcoat — I’m here to help you become radically self-aware, so you stop repeating the same dating cycles and start honoring your feelings, your body, and your truth.
What we cover in this episode:
- Why ignoring your intuition is the #1 mistake most women make on a first date
- The two ways we talk ourselves out of or into dates — and how both can be self-sabotage
- How "making excuses" and "defending someone you barely know" could be hurting your chances at love
- The emotional red flags that signal you might need a dating break
- Why focusing too much on him pulls you out of your own power
- What it really means to emotionally check out — and how to reconnect with yourself before, during, and after a date
- The dating mindset shift that helps you stop pushing for a fairytale and start choosing from your intuition
- A powerful mantra to remember when you're tempted to settle: You can't love an unavailable man enough to make him into Mr. Right.
This episode is part two of my First Date Do’s and Don’ts series — so if you haven’t listened to the Do’s yet, make sure to go back and check out the previous episode. Both are designed to help you date with more clarity, confidence, and emotional safety.
Dating over 40 doesn’t have to be exhausting or disappointing. When you know what to stop doing — and start truly tuning into yourself — everything changes.
Let’s get you closer to love, without wasting one more minute on the wrong people.
