In this special pre-Valentine’s Day edition of The D Shift, I sit down with certified professional life coach Amy Schoen to discuss the art of post-divorce dating and finding new love.


Amy shares her personal journey of divorce, dating, and eventually finding love in her forties. As the creator of the Motivated to Marry Dating Secrets coaching program, Amy brings a wealth of insight and experience to the table.


Together, we talk about the intricacies of dating with intention, understanding relationship values, and navigating the world of online dating. Amy's passionate and pragmatic approach to helping individuals redefine post-divorce relationships is sure to provide valuable insights for anyone seeking to embark on a new romantic journey.


A few points we discuss include:


1. Embrace Your Values: Take the time to identify and ground yourself in your core relationship values and non-negotiables to set healthy boundaries and make informed decisions.


2. Online Dating Strategies: Infuse your values and goals into your online profile to attract the right kind of connection and utilize tools to vet potential matches before meeting in person.


3. Self-Confidence Matters: Focus on what you have to offer, be true to yourself, and obtain the support needed to make better decisions and avoid falling into familiar traps.
