You're "Mom" 24/7. But who were you before? And who do you want to become now?
Swiping feels foreign. Flirting feels rusty. And the "rules" have completely changed since you last dated.
Every minute spent on yourself feels stolen from your kids. The mom guilt is relentless.
Divorce, kids, stretch marks, career demands—you wonder if anyone could handle your "complicated" life.
Society has opinions about single moms dating. You feel the side-eyes and hear the whispers.
"I've been there. In the chaos. In the guilt. In the loneliness.
This book is the friend I wish I'd had."

Is This Book For You?
This book is NOT for: Those who think dating should be your whole identity, or that a relationship will "complete" you. This is about adding love to an already whole life.
Words to Live By
I cancelled a date because of a science project. Then I realized I deserved both.

Meet the Author
Three daughters. A career in government health systems. A divorce behind me. Two miniature schnauzers at my feet. And a heart that still believes love is possible—not as an escape, but as an addition to an already full life.
I've cancelled dates for science projects. I've cried in parking lots after dropping kids off. I've swiped right while stirring mac and cheese. I've felt the guilt of wanting something just for me.
In my forties and post-divorce, I've rebuilt my life with intention. As a Senior Business Analyst and Informatics Specialist working in government health systems, I've proven that career pivots and reinvention are possible at any age. My analytical mind and strategic approach to work have surprisingly informed my approach to dating—knowing my worth, setting boundaries, and seeking genuine connection.
When I'm not working or mom-ing, you'll find me enjoying murder mysteries, savoring spicy food, or dreaming about my next venture (a podcast is in the works!).
If you've ever whispered "I'd rather be alone than lonely in someone's presence"—I wrote this for you.
"You don't find self-worth in someone else's hands; you remember it in your own."
It's time to stop choosing between them.
