6 Dating Tips to Help You Find Love After 40

January 21, 2020

Many of my clients are over 40, thus they have lived a considerable amount of time understanding what they like, dislike, what they want from others and themselves and most often what they expect life to give them. The only problem is, sometimes this inherent knowledge of what we want from ourselves, others, and from life in general, can be more of a dating hindrance than an advantage. Unless this knowledge comes with the right tools and mindset older singles often find themselves lost in the modern dating world[...]

The Fine Line Between Compassion and Self-Abandonment

Learning to recognize when your empathy becomes self-sacrifice. It took me years to understand that constantly putting someone else’s needs before my own wasn’t love...it was a pattern that led to resentment and losing myself in the process. 

Real love doesn’t require you to abandon who you are. Sometimes the most compassionate thing you can do is maintain your boundaries and not enable harmful behavior. 

Growth means learning that you can care deeply for someone without sacrificing your own well-being.

Misunderstandings will happen. Conflict will happen. That’s part of being human. You can explain yourself, open your heart, and speak your truth but you can’t control how others receive it. If someone chooses to walk away even after you’ve tried to explain yourself... let them. 

Their departure isn’t your failure…it’s their choice. Your peace isn’t found in making everyone understand you; it’s in knowing you showed up authentically. Some doors are meant to close so better ones can open. Trust the process. Trust yourself.

✨ A day late but the love is just as strong! Happy Mother's Day to my beautiful mom! ✨

Couldn’t let today pass without shouting out the woman who’s been my rock through it all. Thanks for always believing in me, even when I didn’t believe in myself.

Your wisdom, your laugh, your incredible strength – you amaze me every day. So blessed to call you Mom.

Love you beyond words! ❤️

When we truly become still and listen to understand others, something magical happens. By setting aside our mental chatter and focusing completely on what someone else is saying, we create a space of genuine connection.

Active listening isn’t just waiting for your turn to speak. It’s being fully present—noticing not just their words, but their tone, their body language, what remains unsaid. When we listen this deeply to others, we’re actually strengthening our ability to tune into our own inner voice.

Think about it: each time you quiet your mind to truly hear someone else, you’re practicing the very skill needed to hear yourself clearly. The mental stillness required for deep listening becomes a pathway to self-understanding.

Try this today: in your next conversation, take a deep breath and intentionally slow down. Notice when your mind starts forming responses before they’ve finished speaking. Gently return to simply being with their words. This same practice of quieting the noise helps us recognize our own inner wisdom when we need it most.

The gift of your complete attention is precious—both to others and to yourself.
