81. Life After Love: Dating Again After a Long-Term Relationship, Part 1 with Sadie Marie

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we’re asking the question, “Is there life after love?”

Spoiler alert: Hell Yah!

With our guest, podcast host and dating coach Sadie Marie, we explore what it means to date after a major breakup, the challenges that come with it, and how to embrace new experiences with confidence.

Starting over after a divorce or long-term relationship can feel overwhelming, but it can also be an opportunity for growth, self-discovery, and redefining what you truly want in love and life.

We discuss the importance of having a support squad as you navigate dating again, how to know it’s time to walk away, and why relationships aren’t just about checking a box.

Plus, we’ll talk about the loss we feel when a relationship ends and go into common dating struggles, like why we’re drawn to the “bad boy” archetype, the frustration of ghosting, and how to find emotionally available partners.

If you're stepping back into the dating scene after a long-term relationship or divorce, this episode is for you.

Let’s talk about healing, rebuilding, and finding love—on your terms!
