S1E1: Dating After a Big Breakup w/ Rachael

In this episode, I talk with my friend Rachael about starting to date after a big break up. Many people in their late 30s, 40s, and older find themselves on the dating scene after the end of a significant relationship. I've been through a divorce and had a second long-term relationship of almost eight years end unexpectedly. Rachael called off her wedding just two weeks before the date. We discuss our experiences of the public nature of these types of break ups and what it was like to get back out on the dating scene.

As always, I share a question from a listener for my guest and me to respond to. The question for this episode is "How do you balance small talk and depth on a first date?"
