Sherry and Carla kick off the show with a Love Fix question from a recent divorcee who is looking for tips around dating, especially when they aren't sure if they ever want to get married again. This leads to a conversation about how important it is to work on your issues before you enter the dating game. They then welcome internationally known psychotherapist, speaker, author and divorce recovery expert, Vikki Stark. Vikki is the director of the Sedona Counseling Center of Montreal and is known for her groundbreaking book, Runaway Husbands, which has led her to mentor a worldwide community of women recovering from unexpected divorce.
