What If Safe Is the Dream? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This episode is a little different. After two weeks away, I’ve been thinking about what I’m putting my energy into, what I’m asking for, and whether the stories we tell ourselves eventually become the lives we create. When I started Flirtin’ After Forty, I was looking for love. Somewhere along the way, the terrible dating profiles, ridiculous men, heartbreak, and chaos became part of the entertainment. But what if focusing on all of that has also been keeping me focused on exactly what I don’t w

This week, I’m talking about chemistry, trusting that little feeling when something seems off, and realizing that “nice” is not always enough. I’m also fresh off a surprisingly wonderful trip to Michigan with my kids, slightly less wonderful interactions with my ex, and the very real realization that I am tired,

This line from the episode is gorgeous. It also ties beautifully to Safe Kept Legacy without feeling like a sales pitch. When the Universe Whispers This captures the book, the movie, the boat, the house, and the feeling that something keeps nudging you forward. First-Person Episode Summary In this episode, I’m stepping away from dating for a minute and talking about life, legacy, memory, and the strange little ways the universe keeps whispering when we’re trying not to listen.
