147. 104 Dates Later: A Single Parent's Guide to Dating with Heidi Friedman

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we welcome Heidi Friedman to the show, author of the book Love Lessons: 104 Dates and the Stories That Led Me to True Love.
After her divorce and stepping into life as a single parent, Heidi woke up one morning shortly after her fortieth birthday with a realization: she wasn’t sure she’d ever experienced romantic love. 
So, she set out on a journey — one that would take her on 104 dates, and we’re going to hear about some of those experiences today.
We’ll talk about dating after divorce, dating as a single parent, and what it means to find love.  We explore the fears, the logistics, the judgment, and the hope — and how even after the loss of a previous life, love can still surprise you.
Because dating in your 40s isn’t about starting over — it’s about beginning again. Which is kind of the same thing, but you get it!
Alright Flirties, let’s do this, and meet Heidi!

145. The Loneliness Paradox and the Craving for Connection with Dr. James Ellis

Coming up on this episode of Flirtations, we’re talking on of the most universal experiences we all share — loneliness.
Joining us is Dr. James Ellis, a psychologist known online as @lonelinessdoctor, whose work explores how loneliness shapes our lives — and what it takes to find connection again.
We talk about why meeting people can feel so hard in today, the visible and invisible barriers that keep us from reaching out, and how micro connections - those tiny, everyday exchanges - can actually rewire our sense of belonging.
We also explore how external validation ties into our self-worth, and how the search for connection can sometimes become a search for ourselves — because who we are often reveals itself through what we do, how we show up, and how we let others see us. How we connect with our world.
This episode is about more than just loneliness — it’s about rediscovering the art of connection, one moment, one breath, one flirt at a time.
Let’s do this Flirties, and meet Dr. Ellis!
