Heidi shares how turning 40 sparked her quest to understand what true love looks like by interviewing couples in strong relationships. What began as research turned into 11 core themes about authentic connection. With refreshing honesty, Heidi opens up about her 104-date journey, complete with hilarious mishaps, surprising insights, and the beautiful moment when she finally met her husband Will.This episode cuts through the anxiety about modern dating to remind us that love requires resilience - and is worth 100 disappointing dates.Key MomentsTurning 40: Heidi realized she didn't know what true love looked like or felt like and decided to interview couples in solid partnershipsResearch: Heidi interviewed 50+ couples separately to find themesMutual reciprocity: The most impactful insight was how partners take turns supporting each other through life's wavesThe myth of love at first sight: No one Heidi interviewed mentioned this - instead they talked about initial connection and safetyD04 dates: Heidi shares both hilarious dating disasters and meaningful lessons learnedFinding Will: How she met her husband through yoga connections and recognized the difference in how she feltDating in the wild vs. apps: The benefits of meeting people through activities vs. onlineQuotes"I had to put on my big girl underwear and go back out there." - Heidi on persevering after dating disappointments"I think it's not us. This is the way we are socialized...to value relationships, which is awesome. But then we're also socialized to put our own personal value in relationships, and that's what's harmful." - Sade Curry"Mutual reciprocity and safety... even if you didn't have all the other sprinkles in a relationship, but you had these, you could make a good relationship out of that." - Sade Curry"What if the next date is him?

    231. How to Ask Dating Questions

    Play Episode Listen Later Apr 28, 2025 30:41 Transcription Available


    In this episode, I dive into why asking questions is both an art and a crucial skill on your dating journey after divorce. Most women I work with struggle not because they lack intelligence or communication skills, but because the drama attached to dating turns question-asking into self-sabotage.You might think asking questions is straightforward, but are you using them to protect yourself or to people-please? Both approaches block authentic connection and prevent you from gathering the information you need to make wise decisions about potential partners.Key InsightsCuriosity is your superpower: Approach dating with curiosity—not just about your date but about yourself. Your reactions hold valuable information about your patterns.The protection trap: Going into dates with a rigid checklist of questions turns dating into an interview. You miss crucial nuance and context when you're focused on checking boxes rather than truly connecting.The people-pleasing pitfall: When you avoid asking important questions because "you don't want to be nosy" or "you don't want to chase him away," you sacrifice your needs for a stranger's comfort.Reclaim your authority: Dating involves meeting a stranger, knowing them for months, and potentially committing to them for life. This requires active participation, not passive acceptance.Your dating rights: You have the right to know about people who want access to you. You deserve to have potential partners earn your trust through honesty and transparency.Practical TakeawaysStart with broader questions about lifestyle, career goals, and weekend activities before diving into deeper topicsDesign questions based on your core values rather than using generic listsPay attention to how someone responds—defensiveness, vagueness, or dismissal tells you something importantRecognize when you falter in asking important questions and get curious about what's happening within youRemember timing matters—questions should match the relationship phase you're inDating After Divorce WisdomThink about it: we've known our siblings, cousins, and best friends our whole lives. Yet romantic relationships expect us to meet someone, know them for months, and commit to them forever. That's wild! Since this is our collective social agreement, we need to approach it with intention and courage.Your Next StepIf you don't know what questions to ask, that's a sign you need clarity on your core values and relationship vision. This isn't just about having a list of questions; it's about knowing which answers matter specifically to you.Ready to transform your dating experience?

If I wanted a different life, it was all on me"At 35, living with her parents, Kim decided to date against her usual "type."When her dog died, she approached her neighbors' son—a "good boy" completely unlike her typical "bad boys"—and invited him on walks.The walks were uncomfortable because she felt unworthy next to someone without baggage or poor life choices.But they fell in love, because Kim redefined attraction.With previous relationships, she described feelings as "exciting" but chaotic.Coming from a chaotic family, she had mistaken intensity for love.Her previous relationships were "exciting" but destructive.With her current husband, attraction feels different: "It's a partnership. Very calm, not emotionally charged all the time"Biologically, women are drawn to the strongest "buck"—evolutionarily sensible for survival instead of choosing based on companionship and values.You might initially find this "boring."But Kim questioned: What's boring about peace?What's exciting about fighting over a parking space and being too angry to enjoy the concert?Her most profound insight: "Part of why I dated bad boys was because I got to feel better about myself. At least I wasn't on drugs."With her husband, she couldn't feel superior—and that's what made her uncomfortable.In the end, Kim chose calm over chaos, partnership over drama, growth over stagnation. And it changed everything.Kim's journey from toxic relationships to healthy love exemplifies the work I do with women.If her story resonates, join my masterclass: "Beyond the Spark: The 10 Elements of Chemistry & Attraction"March 30, 2025 (4pm ET/3pm CT)You will learn:The science behind attraction patternsHow brain chemistry influences choicesTechniques to reduce attraction to toxic partnersDefining your needed level of attraction for sustainabilityRegister for live event or replay: sadecurry.com/masterclass

It's about the stories we tell ourselves. I see clients in their 40s saying men their age are "too old," while my clients in their 50s and 60s express the same concern. What's fascinating?

It's been a while since I've done a solo episode, and I'm thrilled to dive back into sharing practical, hands-on advice to propel your dating journey forward. Today, I'm focusing on a crucial aspect of modern dating: succeeding on dating apps in 2024.As a seasoned coach and someone who has navigated these waters personally (I met my husband on Bumble six years ago!), I understand the mixed feelings towards dating apps. They can seem daunting, frustrating, or even cringe-worthy, but I'm here to help shift that perspective. Dating apps are tools, and like any tool, it's all about how you use them.In this episode, we'll explore common misunderstandings about dating apps and why they may feel overwhelming. I'll debunk the myths and offer insights into why dating apps work for some and not for others. We'll also discuss the unique advantages of dating apps, especially if you've lost a significant part of your social circle during a divorce or live in a small community.One of the key points I want to highlight is the importance of how you approach dating apps. It's not about hoping to find Prince Charming instantly; it's about understanding the apps as a tool to connect with potential partners. We'll delve into the significance of crafting a well-thought-out profile, learning the art of swiping, and setting clear boundaries.Additionally, I'll share my personal journey and the lessons learned from using dating apps. You'll hear about my initial challenges, how I tweaked my approach, and the transformation in my dating experiences. This journey led me to meet my wonderful husband, and it's a testament to the effectiveness of dating apps when used correctly.To provide you with actionable tips, I've outlined seven key strategies to help you succeed on dating apps in 2024. These include getting a realistic view of what the apps can and cannot do, experimenting and learning from your experiences, and being willing to go on a journey filled with learning curves.Remember, success on dating apps isn't just about finding your partner; it's about connecting with good people and enjoying the process. So, whether you've had negative experiences in the past or are new to the app dating scene, this episode is packed with insights and advice to set you up for success in 2024.If you're ready to change your dating game and want more personalized guidance, I invite you to join my coaching program.

    On today's episode, I'm joined by the incredible life coach, Dr. Manuela Powell. She focuses on women over 40 and illuminates the challenges these women face, oftentimes shadowed by societal norms and patriarchal structures.We get candid about motherhood expectations, societal norms, and personal identity. I share my own story of feeling subservient to my children and others, despite my independence and success and how I uncovered my true self, shedding the weight of these expectations. Dr. Manuela Powell shares how she successfully maintains a long-distance relationship and offers insights into establishing boundaries, communication, and defining relationship terms.We discuss the beauty of long-distance relationships and the sense of independence they foster. We also touch upon the idea of ethical non-monogamy, challenging societal pressures and norms,  the importance of authenticity and personal growth within relationships. It's a packed episode that will speak volumes to you. Featured on the Show: Dr. Manuela PowellDr. Manuela Powell is a life coach for 40+ women who are ready to start living the sparkliest, loudest, most outrageously real years of their lives. After finally getting the memo that she was queer at the tender age of 47, she realized most women could use some help to come out of whichever bullshit closet they've been stuck in forever, so she took upon herself to be their soul fluffer. For almost 20 years, Manuela was a breast cancer surgeon, but after having her second child she decided she wanted to free herself from endless work hours, toxic work environments, and unflattering scrubs. She put away her scalpel to, instead, dissect women's minds and help them excise the “shoulds”, "musts",  and “not-good-enoughs” from their brains forever, so they can stop people-pleasing and learn to fully trust themselves, to the horror of the patriarchy police. She's a native of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, and after living in NYC, Washington, DC, and Hawai'i, she currently calls Austin, Texas her home, as a single mama to her 2 sons. She dances every day, curses like a sailor who stubbed his toe, and doesn't give a single shit to people who think she should start behaving her age.Dr. Manuela's WebsiteDr. Manuela's FacebookDr. Manuela's InstagramDr. Manuela's TikTokDiscover Your "Core Values Dating Blueprint" And How You Can Use It On: Dating AppsText Messages and Social Events To Meet & Attract Eligible Men Who Match YouClick Here to Sign UpThe Core Values Dating Blueprint Helps you:DISCOVER YOUR CORE VALUES❤️ Take the core values test and discover your core values❤️ Explore the parts of your mission, life story, beliefs and lifestyle that are most important to your relationshipCREATE YOUR CORE VALUES BLUEPRINT❤️ Get the exact framework for crafting your core values dating blueprint that shows you what to say and how to date to meet the partner who's right for youPUT YOUR BEST SELF OUT THERE AT EVERY STAGE OF DATING❤️ Learn exactly how to apply your core values to every part of dating - Add it to your dating profile so that it is as unique and compelling as you areGet Your Core Values Dating Blueprint Now
