EPISODE 49

Taking Back Your Power

Don’t underestimate the power of NO, especially when it comes to dating. If someone is the wrong fit, call it. And if someone ignores, ghosts, or just leaves you hanging, you can reclaim your power with one simple strategy.

Some of the biggest concerns about dating in midlife are how to stay true to yourself, remain in control, and not settle for less than you deserve. In today’s episode, Nancy talks about common dating mistakes, reminding us that they are just part of the story—not the end of the road.

Dating in midlife isn’t a scarcity-based game of musical chairs, so don’t give in to internal pressure to make the "wrong" person "right"—that is the fastest way to self-sabotage on your search for love. Recognize when a relationship isn’t a genuine fit, and remember, if you don’t find anyone this round, there are more chances to come. Think of dating as your opportunity to find connection without the need to settle.

For anyone who’s been ghosted or ignored, Nancy shares how to reclaim your power and shift the narrative. She shares a personal story about learning that “no response” is a decline, and emphasizes that calling it out and having the last word can empower you to move forward without feeling left hanging. Her approach is about empowered self-respect—an essential asset at any stage of life.

Nancy also talks about staying curious and authentic in the dating world. Experimenting with different facets of your personality is great if you stand firm in your values and don’t lose yourself in the process. Flexibility is a virtue, but holding to your core identity is non-negotiable!
