In this episode of After Reality, I'm joined by Jaydi Samuels Kuba — a Hollywood matchmaker, dating coach, and former Family Guy writer — to talk all things modern dating and what it really takes to find a lasting relationship. Jaydi shares insights from her newly released book, Your Last First Date: Secrets From a Hollywood Matchmaker (out January 27), and breaks down why dating can feel extra complicated in high-pressure worlds like entertainment (and honestly… just in general these days).We get into her matchmaking philosophy — focusing on quality, true compatibility, and ethical boundaries, rather than promising a certain number of “matches” like some high-cost agencies. Jaydi also opens up about her own love story, including the wild (and very unconventional) way she met her husband… who was originally a client, and yes, she eventually broke her own rules.Plus, she gives practical, actionable advice you can actually use right now: how to navigate physical attraction, communicate boundaries without killing the vibe, and update your online dating profile so it reflects the real you (and attracts the right people).@matchmadeinhollywoodhttps://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Your-Last-First-Date/Jaydi-Samuels-Kuba/9781668079645?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio Hosted on Acast.

On this episode of Taste Buds with Deb, host Debra Eckerling speaks with matchmaker, dating coach, and TV writer Jaydi Samuels Kuba, author of "Your Last First Date: Secrets from a Hollywood Matchmaker."   Food, dating, and Jewish tradition are all connected. They compliment each other. There's a right and wrong way to choose venues and food for first dates; like finding someone's perfect match, there's an art and craft to it.     For Kuba, matchmaking was a natural progression for her personality; it leaned into her love for connecting people to what - or who - they need.   "I always would help people find new friends, find new jobs, find a roommate, whatever people were searching for in their life," she explains. "As I started getting older, and there was more of a need around me, whether it was friends … co coworkers or colleagues looking for love, I just … started matching people in that way."    Kuba was working as a TV writer for "Family Guy" when she started her matchmaking side hustle, which turned into a full-blown business and passion. It's also how she met her husband, who she matched five times before they started dating. Her book, which she began working on during the writers strike, started as a "how to" before her publisher suggested she changed to a narrative style. In it, she gives dating advice to the characters in the book; info anyone reading can learn from.    Jaydi Samuels Kuba shares her matchmaking journey, what she hopes readers will get out of "Your Last First Date," and lots of dating advice, especially as it relates to restaurants and food recs. She also talks about her bubbe's beloved Jewmaican beef patties recipe, which you can find at JewishJournal.com/podcasts.   Learn more about Jaydi Samuels Kuba at LJMatchmaking.com, follow @MatchMadeinHollywood on Instagram and  TikTok, listen to the My podcast: Match Made in Hollywood podcast, and get a copy of "Your Last First Date" at your favorite place to buy books.   For more from Taste Buds, subscribe on iTunes and YouTube, and follow @TheDEBMethod on social media.

Jaydi Samuels Kuba is a TV writer, matchmaker, and dating coach, best known for setting up singles in the entertainment industry. The dozens of couples she's set up over the years affectionately call her and her business partner Lauren the "Love Agents of Hollywood," and her debut narrative nonfiction book about it all comes out January 27th through Avid Reader Press.

Getting back into the dating scene post-divorce can be a stressful experience when children are involved. When do you introduce them to the kids? How involved are the children with finding someone? What if the kids don't like your new partner? These are just a few of the questions that are likely to come up, and there is not a one-size-fits-all solution. These questions can be daunting and may even paralyze you from dating again.Sandy Weiner is the founder of Last First Date and is a renowned TEDx speaker, dating and relationship coach, author, and podcast host. In this episode of Divorce & Other Things You Can Handle, we discuss the ins and outs of dating post-divorce while having children. There can be several factors at play and it's easy to feel overwhelmed, so we are going to break down some of the concerns we hear most often!

In today's episode I interview Sandy Weiner. She is founder of Last First Date and The Women of Value. She's an internationally known TED X Speaker and Dating and Relationship Coach, as well as Women's Empowerment Coach. She's author of three books and is a podcast host. Dating and relationships is such an important topic because, as humans, relationships with other humans can be a source of joy and love, or it can be a source of toxicity. Whether you are currently in a relationship, dating, or not, this interview will be helpful because we discuss how it comes down to knowing and feeling comfortable with ourselves in order to have more fulfilling experiences with others. Sandy shares that it was after experiencing a difficult childhood, being brought up by two parents who had a terrible marriage, and divorcing her husband after 23 years of marriage, that she had an opportunity to reassess her life. She decided to reclaim the parts of herself that had been lost along the way, and one of those was her interest in helping others. She trained as a life coach which gave her so much self-awareness. She found herself helping friends who were dating, and in the process, started studying the deeper parts of dating, communication skills and boundary setting. This changed her life for the better and now it's doing the same thing for her clients every day. When You're in the Wrong Relationship Sandy finds that a lot of people realize later in life - in their 40s, 50s and even older – that they are not in the relationship that works for them anymore. It's often when their kids are grown, if they have kids, and they're starting to think about if they really want to spend the rest of their life with this person. Perhaps they realize they don't really enjoy being their partner anymore or it doesn't feel safe anymore. Sandy doesn't think divorce is the right thing for everyone. She says, you must assess for yourself and think if you really want to stay in a relationship. She sees people staying in terrible relationships and that breaks her heart. Couples may be having the same complaint every single time they talk, and yet they stay in the relationship. Of course, there could be a lot of reasons for this, such as fear of going out on your own, or financial concerns. You must believe in what you're doing and know why you're leaving. In the end, it's almost always for the better. You have to weigh out how you want to live the rest of your life. Avoiding The Same Patterns in a New Relationship We often make the same choices over and over, and don't even realize it. Or we go to the opposite extreme. It's not just about finding the opposite. And we can't make choices based on attraction. It's about analyzing if you're going into a relationship just because it feels familiar and think about it based on your attachment style. Knowing how you attach to your partners, how you tend to bring your past into the present, how to self-regulate, how to talk about the things that matter, how to bring up hard stuff, and how to ask questions when you have questions instead of keeping them inside, as well as knowing what you want in life… are all so important. These are things to work on before even going on dates, so that you can come as a whole person to the dating process. We also need to look at the patterns of core relationships in our life, and what they have in common. We also need to consider our limiting beliefs, and where we're struggling. When we really go deep into who we are, then it is easier to find someone that will be a good match for us. Attraction is Not The Most Important Thing in a Relationship You have to have some attraction obviously, but if you're so attracted that you lose yourself in that person's presence, it's not a good sign. This is something to look at - we need to analyze where does this come from? Is there abandonment involved? Does this person remind you of someone, and now you're trying to get that missed attention? If you do this, you then can rewire your brain for healthy attraction. There's a difference between attraction based on deprivation and attraction based on inspiration. Most of us are stuck in the attraction of deprivation. This is what we don't have, and so we want it. When we are attracted to somebody in an attraction of inspiration, we're inspired by that person, but we also bring value. That's called interdependence. With interdependence, we have a life; we have wholeness and fullness, but we also have the capacity to allow another person into our life to add value to each other and to complement each other. Narcissism in Relationships Sandy finds that the term “narcissism” is thrown around a lot, so she tends to focus instead on behaviors. If you were in a relationship with somebody who was self-centered, not empathic, they always had to be right, and you felt that your needs didn't matter, that is something you need to look at and consider why you chose that relationship. She helps clients to trace back in order to understand their choices - who did that person remind them of and in doing so, they start to rewire their brain for attraction in a healthier way. She doesn't believe in hard and fast rules. She believes in principles, and self-care, and knowing how you function best so that you can advocate for that in relationships. To be able to succeed in a relationship you have to be able to communicate your needs in three main areas: worldview, lifestyle and sexual. If you don't communicate your needs, you can't expect them to be met. Lifestyle has to with whether you like hot or cold weather, and whether you are vegetarian, or not, and can you be with somebody who is a meat eater. What time do you go to bed, and are you an introvert or extrovert. It's really important to understand that lifestyle piece. The next area is worldview, which is how you see the world. How do we view religion, politics, God, miracles, faith, community - all the things that are the bigger picture because that's really the core of you see the world. And then the last category is sex, including what kind of sex you like and how often. You have to be able to communicate all these things. When you get comfortable advocating for yourself, as well talking and sharing your stories in a way that make the other person want to share their stories in a way that's healthy, that's a big win. A Healthy Way to Be Motivated About Choosing a Relationship Sandy shares that a lot of people have a hard time picturing what it is like to imagine a healthy relationship. We can create a vision of what you want, not just what you don't want, or what you think is out there regarding relationships. Also, it is not healthy to be too rigid or specific about it because you could end up overlooking some amazing people who don't have all those things that you think you need and then love shows up in a surprise package when you're open to it. It's when we get out of our heads and into our hearts that we make room for real love. But we have to understand what would work best for us. We have to have certain parameters of who that person has to be in order for us to feel that way. That's where we start to really attract not just the right partner but the right friends and the right work - it's all connected. And most people really don't have an idea and so they get distracted, discouraged, and they just shut down to dating, but what would it feel like to be in a partnership, what would it feel like to have somebody to travel with, to come home to at the end of the day and take a walk and share a meal. It's those small things that matter. Communication Is Key in a Successful Relationship We also need to look at our needs and feelings without judgment. We normally bring in history to our arguments or needs that were not met when we were growing up. When you start to see that needs and feelings are connected it's helpful. Then you don't have to say it all out loud. You could even just process it for yourself without feeling upset because of something your partner did or did not do. Maybe you had a need for communication; maybe you had a need for respect. And then you get curious about the other person; maybe it wasn't disrespectful on their part to them but now you can have a conversation about what was going on for you, so your partner knows about it. This takes practice and openness on both parts. We have to be able to honor the other person and see their needs being as important as ours. Sometimes we're taught is we say something then the other person might get mad and then we feel like we can never say anything, and then we never do say anything, and it just becomes a tense situation. It is also very important that we give ourselves time after a breakup before dating again, to process what happened, and to analyze what we learned, what worked, what didn't, and what would we like our next relationship to feel like; what type of communication would we like to have. Give yourself the time to feel it in your body - to feel all the feelings. A lot of people miss companionship and the feeling of intimacy so much that they will either go back to the person or they'll find somebody to replace them too quickly and end up repeating the same thing over and over. We have to take our time to really picture what it would feel like to be in a healthy relationship. What would that look and feel like to you because the more you have it as a felt sense, the more you're going to recognize it when it comes. Sandy finds that a lot of people are waiting to be saved and rescued. Instead, she encourages people to enjoy their life while dating and find somebody who adds value. Don't settle for less.

Dating and communication with a partner, or potential partner, can be confusing and stressful... But if you're armed with the right toolkit, then it can also be a lot of fun! To communicate, is to express yourself in a healthy way. If you can do this when looking for your next romantic relationship, you will save yourself a lot of confusion and heartbreak down the road. Healthy communication also helps couples de-escalate a situation, staying calm under stress, seeing each other's points of view and becoming closer and more connected. Hayley Quinn is a leading dating coach for men and women, on a mission to make dating great again. Talking to host Gabby, Hayley offers advice on the best way to communicate with someone when you haven't heard from them in a while, what to say if you've been dating for some time and want to make it an exclusive relationship, and why not having ‘the spark' straight off should not be a dealbreaker. Hayley also shares her concerns on when dating, or trying to date, is done as a form of distraction from dealing with uncomfortable feelings, emotions or a situation... and why Walt Disney has a lot to answer for! If you are in need of some help to be better at communicating; either whilst dating or in a committed relationship, this episode is for you.   To download the free My Possible Self App: https://mypossibleself.app.link/podcast For more on Hayley Quinn: https://www.hayleyquinn.com/ To pre-order Hayley's debut novel ‘The Last First Date': https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0008511047

Sandy believes it's never too late to have the life and love you want!   In today's episode, Sandy talks to widows and widowers, giving great advice about dating, explaining how and when to date, and also when it is OK not to date.   Key Takeaways: Sandy shares how she started helping people approach dating after/during grieving. When is the right time to start dating after losing your loved one? How does a widow or a widower communicate to a new partner that space needs to be created to honor the late spouse? You can love more than one person at the same time. How we talk about what happens to us is how people perceive it. Be open to something new happening to you. It is OK to be vulnerable and tell the person you are dating how awkward and hard it feels to be dating again. Susan and Sandy talk about how to explain to children the fact that their parents are dating again. What happens when someone is ready to date but does not know how? Online dating: Sandy explains how to approach it and stay safe in the process. Stay away from trauma bonds. Dating can be an opportunity to redefine yourself. Dating is also an opportunity to grow and evolve. Sandy shares her “morning pages” journaling activity as a way of practicing self-care.   Resources Tendrilsofgrief.com Email Susan: susan@tendrilsofgrief.com The Artist's Way, Julia Cameron   Meet Sandy Weiner Visit Last First Date Follow Sandy on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube Email Sandy at sandy@lastfirstdate.com

“People go for their ‘type' and that's the worst for them,” says Sandy Weiner, dating expert and CEO of LastFirstDate.com. “Women I work with are now in their sixties and they go for CEO types. They say, ‘I'm really attracted to his resume.' But that doesn't make for a good relationship. You need to focus on the long term: can this person talk to me, resolve conflict? Have they created a life for themselves or are they stuck blaming someone else for who they are today?” Weiner, who is also a life coach and founder of the site, Women of Value, finds many dating clients are too “airy fairy” in their profiles which confuses men. She helps them create profiles designed to get men to think, “I'd love to meet this woman.” Quite a strange turn for a woman who graduated with a degree in art therapy, wandered through businesses in illustration and painting furniture, authoring children's books, becoming a head writer for Nickelodeon, and eventually returning to school for her degree in coaching. When her 23-year marriage went south, Weiner found herself in midlife transition and dating again. “My friends were, too. But I was better at it and guiding them because of my training in coaching.” What has she learned? “Pay attention to your intuition. It holds the key to your ‘why'. Try things. Be bold. Make mistakes.”  FREE GIFT! Don't start your reinvention without downloading CoveyClub's starter guide called “31 Badass Tips for Launching Your Reinvention Without Fear!”

Loved having Sandy on. I think dating in mid-life is relevant to so many people. But so many of us feel like we are the only one going through it. What I love about Sandy is that through her work--whether it's her Podcast, Tedx Talk, or with clients--she has BEEN THROUGH it as well. And she shares her story to make us feel like we aren't the only ones who are totally disenchanted with Tinder. Sandy's the real deal, y'all.

In episode 44, I have a conversation with Dating Coach, Tedx speaker AND the host of last first date radio, Sandy Weiner. You may remember her from episode 24 when she shared with us boomers the low-down on how to find love after 50… or maybe you'll remember that steamy episode 35 where she told us how to have great sex after 50 and beyond. In this episode, Sandy shares with us the do's and don'ts on how to make your valentine's day special…or at the very least tolerable. In this episode Sandy answers the following questions: • Valentine's day, it seems like we either love it or hate it. Why is it that so many of us have such a hard time with this holiday? • What are the common mistakes that many of us (mostly guys) make for Valentine's Day? • The way we handle Valentine's Day evolves as our relationships change. Couples just starting out face more unknowns and pressure than those of us who have been together for longer periods. What advice do you have for those just starting out as a dating couple? • I know it's very important to keep the fire and romance in our relationships and it's very easy to become complacent and predictable with our romantic overtures, especially on Valentine's Day. What advice do you have on how to keep the day special for long term couples? • Some of us are all alone and have to deal with friends, and the media flooding us with hallmark holiday of love and roses. This can be very depressing. What's the best way to deal with Valentine's Day if you're all alone? • Do you have any final advice for us boomers on how to make the most of Valentine's Day and better yet, how to keep that romance going for the other 364 days of the year? • What is the latest happenings on the Last First Date?
