About a year after my marriage ended, my good friends Betsy and Kris told me I should start dating. They might as well have told me that I should move to the arctic and open a unicorn ranch with Publishers Clearing House winnings that were on the way.

At the time, I was so shut down sexually and romantically that the only relationship I had with my sexy parts was wiping and tampon-changing. All my energy was spent on baby-caring and business-hustling.

And honestly, if it hadn’t been for the loving intentions of these friends who set me up on a couple blind dates with very nice and smart men, I may have continued on, raising solid citizens, making money, wiping and administering feminine hygiene.

Instead, I am so grateful I was shoved onto the dating scene, and haven’t looked back.

In the past five years of single motherhood I have met so many wonderful men. I have been in love. I have had casual flings. I’ve enjoyed short relationships that taught me a lot. And I have had fantastic dates with brilliant and kind men. I’ve enjoyed just walking on the street next to a nice man who holds my hand and makes me feel like a woman. Plus, I’ve had incredible sex. Lots and lots of sex! The best of my life.

I am not alone.

Over these years of blogging about single motherhood, hundreds of women have confirmed that dating and sex at this stage of life are so, so much better than ever before — and far better they imagined. After all, the message out there is bleak!

The world tells single moms:

There are no good guys out there.

Any good man will not want to date a single mom.

If you don’t look like a 23-year-old lingerie model, you are unlovable. 

You are selfish if you take time away from your precious children to date. 

Good mothers do not enjoy sex.

Plus, if you’re like I was, I had no idea how to go about dating again! I hadn’t been on a date in 10 years! Tinder … huh?!  Online dating …. Yikes! Talk of the hook-up culture, open relationship and horror stories about creeps all freaked me out!

But I did get out there. Today, when I go on a date, I completely look forward to it. I am confident I will have a good time, I know where to meet nice, interesting guys, and how to make them interested in me. I’ve dated a lot. I’ve learned a ton, and eve more importantly, I’ve had a FANTASTIC TIME. I’ve gotten to be so great at dating that the New York Observer named me to one of ‘9 Most Eligible New Yorkers!’

That is what I want for you: I don’t want moms to be crapping their pants when someone mentions dating to them. I don’t want moms to be ashamed or worried or afraid of dating.

Dating as a mom is natural, healthy, and FUN! I want to take the stigma out of dating for every single mom out there!

That is why I created a whole video course Get Back Into Dating Again For Single Moms. 

In this 6-module course, I walk you through everything you need to know to get over your hangups about dating, get your sexy back, find a good man and go on ONE NICE DATE. I guarantee to jump-start your dating life.

The best part … for this Mother’s Day week, I’ve slashed the price from $199 to just $49. Mama … on behalf of women and moms everywhere … I WANT YOU TO DATE!

This price ends 8 p.m. Thursday May 12.

In Get Back Into Dating Again For Single Moms, with

7 professionally produced videos,

4 worksheets, and 3 awesome ebooks, 

you will learn:

  • Abolish negative thinking that holds you back from dating
  • Figure out what you want from dating (and how to get it!)
  • Get your SEXY BACK! (this is the really fun part … but the MOST fun part is at the end of the course, when you go on that date!)
  • Where to find that good dude
  • Prepare for that date! What to wear, where to go … all answered!
  • What the heck to do after that date! (not as complicated as you think)

Here’s the thing … The $49 price ends THURSDAY. I will send you emails with more info about the course before then, but that price won’t last forever.
