Dating After Menopause — Nobody Prepared You for This - #149

Dating After Menopause — Nobody Prepared You for This - #14928 aug1 u 07 min

Nobody prepared you for this part of midlife either. You survived menopause. You rebuilt yourself. And now, whether by choice or by circumstance, you are looking at the dating world for the first time in decades.

Today we are going there.

My guest is Alyssa Dineen, a New York City-based personal stylist and dating coach, founder of Style My Profile NYC, and author of The Art of Online Dating. Alyssa combines twenty years of styling expertise with her own personal experience re-entering the dating world after divorce at 41, and has spent the years since helping midlife women transform the way they show up, online and in person.

In this episode we cover the Date Vanilla mindset and why waiting for fireworks is keeping you from real love, what emotionally ready actually looks like before you touch an app, the profile mistakes that are keeping you invisible, which apps actually work for midlife women, green flags women over 50 consistently miss, how to handle ghosting, breadcrumbing, and app fatigue without losing your mind, how to dress for a first date when your body and your confidence have both changed, and what one year of dating with no results actually means, and what to do about it.

This is the conversation your divorced friends wished someone had given them before they downloaded Hinge.
