Hey there! If you’re a single woman over 40 looking for Mr. Right, you’re in the right place. In this episode, I’m sharing essential first date dos that will help you get closer to meeting the love of your life. With over 15 years of experience as an intuitive dating coach—and having found my own Mr. Right in my 40s—I know firsthand what works and what wastes your time. Let’s dive into part one of this mini-series, where I’ll cover exactly what you should be doing on a first date.

• Why dating after 40 requires intention and self-awareness
• The importance of preparing yourself emotionally and mentally before dating
• How to use online dating as a tool for actually meeting potential matches

• Setting clear parameters for deal breakers and must-haves

• Following your heart and intuition throughout the dating journey
• Deciding on personal boundaries ahead of time

First dates can be exciting, nerve-wracking, and full of possibilities—but they don’t have to be overwhelming. By preparing yourself emotionally, staying intentional, and checking in with yourself along the way, you’ll be in a strong position to attract the right person. Be sure to tune in to part two, where I’ll cover the biggest first date don’ts to help you avoid common pitfalls.
