What makes 2nd Acts different from other dating books?

This book combines practical advice with a lighthearted tone. It’s grounded in real-world experience and focuses on actionable strategies, without unnecessary fluff. The emphasis is on empowering readers to embrace this chapter of their lives with joy and confidence.

How do the QR-coded video features enhance the experience?

The QR codes offer an interactive element, providing access to video coaching on topics like

crafting a first message or

navigating difficult situations. It’s a way to make the guidance more dynamic and personal.

With so many dating apps available, how can someone choose the right one?

I recommend starting with apps that align with your values and goals. For those over 50, niche apps like OurTime or SilverSingles can be helpful, but broader platforms like Match or Bumble may also be a good fit depending on your location and preferences.

How has your personal journey influenced the book?

My own experiences have shaped the advice I share. Dating later in life taught me resilience and the value of authenticity—lessons that are central to the book.

What feedback have you received from early readers?

The response has been heartening. Readers have shared that the book makes them feel seen and motivated to re-enter the dating world with optimism. Hearing that the book resonates with readers has been incredibly rewarding.
