I never imagined that at this stage of my life I would find myself single, navigating a world that had completely changed since the last time I was in it. Dating after a long marriage isn’t just awkward — it’s a full emotional excavation. It means showing up for someone new before you’ve fully figured out who you are again. The Dating Chronicles is my honest, sometimes hilarious, occasionally cringe-worthy account of that journey — the hope, the missteps, the unexpected moments of clarity, and the slow, beautiful realization that I was worth showing up for. Pull up a chair. It gets interesting.
