Bitter to Better

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this short, straight-to-the-point episode of Bitter to Better, I share a PSA for women: beware of the lazy dater. I unpack what a lazy dater looks like—and why attractive qualities like looks, money, or status can mask minimal investment. I draw a clear distinction between companionship and partnership, and encourage you to align your dating choices with your long-term goals rather than accepting breadcrumbs or “scraps.”I offer guidance on recognizing mismatched expectations, redefining some connections as friends-with-benefits when appropriate, and taking responsibility for protecting your time and energy. If he’s not showing up, not following through, or repeatedly downgrading plans, pay attention to what he’s showing you. The bottom line: don’t be blinded by surface appeal—choose partners who date you well and demonstrate real partnership potential.--------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videos

I share practical, low-stress prep to help moms date with confidence: from creating a spring-ready rotation of five go-to outfits and nailing an easy hair and makeup routine, to proactively blocking calendar time during the kids’ spring break so dates (or self-care and solo dates can actually happen). I also walk through building your “Ready List” of five restaurants and five activities so you’re never scrambling for ideas. My goal is to help you be ready before dating season truly kicks in (May–September), so you can enjoy it while it’s here. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videosEp. 32: Preparing To Date In The Fall As A Busy Mom https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/32Ep. 45: Preparing To Date In The Winter/During The Holidays As A Bust Mom https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/45Ep. 28: Dating As the Default Parent https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--28-Dating-As-the-Default-Parent-e332a93Ep. 50: Making the Most of Your Child-Free Time https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/ep-50-making-the-most-of-your-child-free-time FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode I highlight the many small-but-mighty ways you’re likely making progress in your dating life—especially if you’re a mom juggling a lot. Dating is a process, not an event and acknowledging incremental wins is key to staying motivated. I walk through practical markers of progress: seeking resources, building and actively using a dating profile, engaging men in low-pressure conversations, saying yes to dates, and actually going on them. I also cover mindset shifts like bouncing back faster after disappointments, spending less energy analyzing poor behavior (ghosting, inconsistent texting), and continuing to engage with men who show up well while letting others vet themselves out. You’ll hear concrete tips for making conversations flow, lowering first-date barriers to the four essentials (attraction, safety, no offensive behavior, no major turn-offs), and maintaining momentum without letting one bad interaction derail you. By the end, you’ll see how much progress you’ve already made—and how to keep it going, one step at a time. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesEp. 15: How To EFFECTIVELY Use Dating Apps https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--15-How-to-EFFECTIVELY-Use-Dating-Apps-e23suk1Ep. 26: Lower Your First Date Standards https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--26-Lower-Your-First-Date-Standards-e2a3j5o FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

Jill shares how she collaborates with 200+ matchmakers worldwide, the heart-centered people she serves from their 20s to their 80s, and why preferences versus deal-breakers matters more than ever in an app-driven world. We dig into mindset: finding control in your own choices, using dating apps as a directory (not a destiny), and keeping first dates to a simple vibe check. Jill offers compassionate guidance on boundaries, pacing, and remembering that the joy—and clarity—is in the journey. We also explore her personal path through divorce, intentional dating, parenting teens, and building a values-driven business, plus practical first-date rules and mom-life systems that keep a household running as a true team.-------------------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videos--------------------------------------------------------Contact Jill:Website: https://www.jillinit.com/Phone:  888-JILL-LOVEEmail:  [email protected] FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of the Bitter to Better podcast, I wrap up the Empowered Dating Challenge with Challenge #4: Vet Him Out. Building on last episode’s focus on casually/rotationally dating, I explain why your time and energy are currencies—especially as a mom—and how to protect them by actively vetting out men who don’t meet your needs, values and Ideal Partner list dealbreakers. Think like a hiring manager: bring in new candidates, and release the ones who show unreliability, evasiveness, or misaligned lifestyles. I walk through practical scripts and approaches for ending things—ranging from a simple, respectful decline after a date or two, to a direct conversation with someone you’ve been seeing, to blocking/ghosting when safety or clear boundary violations are involved. The goal is empowered choice: you can’t control others, but you can control who gets your time and attention. Let go of stagnant dating, free up capacity for better matches, and seek connections that genuinely reciprocate and support your vision for a healthy relationship.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesEp. 54: Introducing The Empowered Dating Challenge https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/54Ep. 55: I Challenge You To Achieve A Personal Goal https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/55Ep. 56: I Challenge You To Go On A Date https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/56Ep. 58: I Challenge You To Casually Date https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/ep-58-i-challenge-you-to-casually-date FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn challenge number three of the Empowered Dating Challenge, I invite you to truly date casually—and explain exactly what that means for moms seeking a long-term, monogamous relationship. I break down the three distinct relationship stages (casually dating, exclusively dating, and committed relationship) and why getting exclusive too soon leads to sliding into mismatched partnerships. You’ll hear how to build and use your Ideal Partner List to distinguish a fun companion from a life partner, the importance of active vetting, and why you should avoid one-sided exclusivity and dating in the DMs. I offer concrete next steps: expand your roster, meet people both online and offline, keep options open until you’ve intentionally chosen exclusivity together, and assess fit in real life rather than in your head. Your mini-assignment: if you’re focused on just one person, get on the apps today, engage new profiles, and secure an additional date. Apply these challenges to date more effectively, efficiently, and enjoyably—so you can choose the right partner on purpose, not the wrong partner by default.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videos----------------------------------------------------------Ep. 54: Introducing The Empowered Dating Challenge https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/54Ep. 55: I Challenge You To Achieve A Personal Goal https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/55Ep. 56: I Challenge You To Go On A Date https://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/56 FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

Danielle shares how she’s re-emerging professionally after years of prioritizing parenting, rebuilding her wedding and family photography business post-divorce and post-pandemic, while navigating the constant juggle of time, boundaries, and self-care. We swap stories about meaningful mom self-care, daily logistics and the household hacks we swear by—plus the chores we hate.We also get candid about the fifth-grade frontier: independence, friendship drama, and the wild world of kid tech—group chats, devices, and the line between protection and preparation. From the infamous “zoo trip primate video” lesson to planning responsible cell phone introductions, we explore how to scaffold digital life skills before middle school. Danielle opens up about dating readiness after divorce, choosing intentionality over pressure, and setting standards that protect hard-won peace. We round out with goals for 2026—growing a values-led business, dating with purpose, modeling healthy relationships for our kids—and a frank mini-chat on perimenopause, sleep, and feeling like ourselves again. Cheers to building on strong scaffolding this year.----------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videos FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of the Bitter to Better podcast, I introduce the second challenge in our Empowered Dating series: go on a date. I share simple, practical criteria for saying yes—feel safe, haven’t been turned off or offended, and you’re at least somewhat attracted—so you can get out there, practice, and learn what you want, how you like to be dated, and how to show up confidently. I encourage low‑stakes engagement as a first step, from replying to a dating app message to “dropping the handkerchief” in everyday situations, and I remind listeners to prioritize safety and choose public venues. I also speak directly to women who’ve been avoiding dates or settling for casual hangouts, urging them to set up real dates—whether through apps, social circles, or meeting someone out in the world—and to consider expanding beyond a shallow dating pool. The challenge: talk to a guy, accept (or lightly suggest) a date, and get some reps in. Then report back—DM or comment to share your wins and questions.-----------------------------------------------FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesWatch the pod on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie/videos FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this kickoff to the Empowered Dating Challenge, I invite you to start with a challenge that’s all about you: choose and pursue one personal goal. While it isn’t directly about dating, showing up for yourself, building momentum, and feeling proud of your progress naturally boosts confidence, passion, and presence in every area of life—including how you show up on dates. I share how practices like scripting “look back letters,” manifestation habits from The Magic/The Secret, and consistent micro-actions (hello, hula hooping, Supernatural on Meta Quest, and light weights) have helped me feel grounded, motivated, and joyful. Use this episode to brainstorm and then commit: list what you want to try or achieve (big or small), pick one, and reduce friction by planning access and logistics in advance. If your goal is a book a month, line up titles now, decide how you’ll get them (buy, borrow, library), set up library cards, and consider tools like Hoopla or Libby. Anticipate roadblocks, choose motivators (a buddy, a club, a favorite space, or sharing progress on social), and create an environment that makes it easy to show up. This is the first step in our series—choose your personal goal and begin today.

We then pivot to self‑care and life outside the office: luxurious bath rituals, DIY home projects, and travel as restoration. From Vegas and Riviera Maya plans to dream trips across Japan, New Zealand, Peru, and national parks, we explore what it looks like to craft joy and adventure at every stage. We close with a very important mom hack—making space for kids to fully express themselves and practicing rupture and repair—which has transformed her relationship with her daughter and echoes her belief in therapy for everyone.------------------------------------------------------Date Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

We dive into the emotional rollercoaster of her daughter’s college years, what the first year of empty nesting felt like, and the freedom she found in solo travel—complete with a tearful layover in Hong Kong. We also celebrate her first-place win at a pole competition and talk about movement as therapy—pole for her, hula hooping for me.We also get real about dating: mindset, boundaries, and the difference between companionship and partnership. Sherie shares about why she dates, what’s a dealbreaker (hello, dogs in the bed), and how oversharing on first dates and refusing to accept “no” kill the vibe. From ghosting confessions to why neither of us is interested in “building a man,” this conversation is equal parts honest, funny, and affirming for moms redefining themselves while their kids fly.

Drawing from my own experience—especially on Hinge—I share why using mixed media matters (photos, a voice note, video), and the specific photo types that help best display your personality and lifestyle. I also explain why you shouldn’t lead with your trauma or a list of “don’ts,” and how to keep your profile warm, inviting, and easy for potential matches to engage with.Beyond the profile itself, I offer simple usage habits to improve your results: treat the app like a part-time commitment with daily 10-minute sessions, set small outreach goals, and remember that online dating is a numbers game. These quick, actionable tweaks can help you increase engagement and better dating partner quality. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 15: How to EFFECTIVELY Use Dating Appshttps://youtu.be/GPkmPMhLIYgDate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of Bitter to Better, I dive into how single and default parents can intentionally create and maximize child‑free time—especially around the holidays. I share my personal approach to planning with two different co-parents in two different circumstances, and why thoughtful, proactive communication helps me carve out time for rest, errands, work, travel, and simple enjoyment. A key focus is setting and holding healthy boundaries with an ex, clarifying what information is and isn’t owed, and avoiding patterns that enable last‑minute disruptions. I walk through real examples of coordinating pickup/drop‑off, using school calendars and known work schedules, and confirming plans in advance so you can design breaks that actually happen.I also offer practical ideas for what to do once you have that time—from solo staycations and quiet TV binges to catching up on organizing, pursuing hobbies, or scheduling dates—plus a reminder to plan child‑free time just as intentionally as any other vital resource. Whether it’s winter, spring, or summer break, the goal is the same: lighten the load so you can show up well for yourself and your kids by making space that supports your energy, priorities, and peace.

She recounts the terrifying boat ride on a wooden fishing vessel named “Real Shit,” the scramble to safety, and the emotional aftermath that led to rebuilding life in the States. We also dive into the complexity of co-parenting with boundaries, choosing not to weaponize children, and the nuanced grief of ending a relationship with a “good person” who isn’t your person. Devon opens up about hitting her lowest low, the moment that kept her anchored as a mother, and the unexpected healing that came from saying yes to joy—whether that was Disney on panic-fueled cash, an extravagant divorce party, or learning to date again with intention. We talk about guilt, growth, YOLO seasons, and how prioritizing excitement and rest can actually make us better moms. If you’ve ever had to start over, calibrate your standards, or give yourself permission to live, this one’s for you.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date Better As A Mom Webinar Registration: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_k2p-vY5jS8iNdJauiFtkMADate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-betterJoin Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracieWebinar  FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

Devon shares candidly about balancing motherhood with dating, pushing back on judgment, and insisting on reciprocity in relationships.

I guide you to dream big first then narrow into seasonal goals you can realistically integrate between now and early spring across areas like health, parenting, finances, relationships, and career. I share my own focus on building consistent habits plus how to identify your personal roadblocks and design simple, sustainable systems to overcome them. We also explore mindset practices that keep your energy aligned, including visualization and a powerful scripting ritual I use every year: the “look-back letter.” If you’re pausing dating this season, consider it your invitation to recalibrate, build small daily habits, and evolve into the version of yourself you’re excited to carry into the new year.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date Better as a Mom Webinar Registration: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_k2p-vY5jS8iNdJauiFtkMA CORRECTION: Webinar will start 7:30PM ETDate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ _r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6The Magic by Rhonda Byrne https://www.thesecret.tv/products/the-magic-book/Law of Attraction Changed My Life Podcast https://shows.acast.com/loacml FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

While I always encourage consistency and showing up for your goals, I’m just as committed to honoring self-care—and sometimes that looks like pausing to recalibrate. I walk you through how to check in with your needs, set boundaries, and use this time to soothe your nervous system while also reflecting on what’s worked (and what hasn’t) in your dating life this year.  I offer a practical two-part framework for your intentional pause: relaxation and work. On the relaxation side, focus on what brings you peace, joy, and excitement—whether that’s stepping back from dating and dating apps, enjoying solitude, or setting holiday boundaries with loved ones. On the work side, take inventory of your goals across life domains—health, parenting, home, career, finances, dating—and get specific about what you want to upgrade in the new year. I also encourage a mindful review of how you’ve used dating apps, the quality of your dates, and what you want to carry forward. This is not “giving up”; it’s a strategic reset to step into the next season clear, calm, and intentional.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date Better Webinar Registration:https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_k2p-vY5jS8iNdJauiFtkMA#/registration CORRECTION: Webinar will start 7:30PM ETDate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-betterJoin Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/editCoach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracieWebsite: https://www.coachtracie.life/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ _r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 35: Chase That Great Date Feelinghttps://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/35MINISODE: Thankful For Solitudehttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/MINISODE-Thankful-For-Solitude-e2cakrgEp. 15: How to EFFECTIVELY Use Dating Appshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--15-How-to-EFFECTIVELY-Use-Dating-Apps-e23suk1 FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

We celebrate a community win from a small-but-mighty Election Day bake sale that far exceeded fundraising goals, and we unpack the power of rupture-and-repair after tough moments with our kids. We talk about shifting from dependence to interdependence as our fifth graders grow, letting children try their own solutions, and staying grounded amid the never-ending mental load of passports, school schedules, and the holiday season.Kim shares her transition from litigation to peacemaking and what divorce and relationship mediation can offer families who want to protect their kids’ wellbeing while separating with dignity. We dive into practical self-care that actually fits real life, including the three buckets—self, couple, and family care—plus creating go-to lists for dates and family adventures. From setting sacred quiet time to teaching kids to “read the room,” from snack sanity and balanced meals to evolving conversations about emotions and intimacy as kids enter tween years—this is a candid, warm, and funny kitchen-table chat for any parent riding the waves.------------------------------------------------------All Joy and No Fun by Jennifer Senior https://jennifersenior.net/all-joy-and-no-fun------------------------------------------------------Date Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of Bitter to Better, I break down my framework for healing after a breakup using four “buckets”: distractions, peace, joy, and processing. I explain why grief from a breakup mirrors other significant losses and how each bucket offers tools to help you function, soothe your nervous system, reconnect with joy, and do the deeper reflective work that actually heals the wounds. You’ll learn concrete ideas for helpful distractions, peace-bringing  joy-bringing practices and processing tools. I also guide you through an Emotional Identification Exercise to name your feelings, understand why they’re there, and pair each emotion with soothing actions—so you’re not just waiting for time to pass, but actively tending to the hurt. If you’ve felt stuck in bitterness or overwhelmed by the breakup mourning process, this episode offers a clear, compassionate roadmap to move from surviving the breakup to genuinely healing and growing beyond it.

I walk you through starting with the dream—vision boards, journaling, and visualizations—to define what a full life looks and feels like for you in the next year to five years. I offer practical examples from my own life, from solo city getaways and low‑stakes solo outings to building experiences with friends and family, and I explain how purposeful experiences naturally raise your standards and expand your sense of what’s possible.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Join my email listhttps://www.coachtracie.life/newsletterJessica Chastainhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm1567113/ FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this breakup recovery episode of the Bitter to Better podcast, I dive into managing post-breakup impulses—the sudden urges to text your ex, check their socials, vent online, or act out of anger or grief. I walk through practical ways to reduce triggers you can control (like strict no-contact or limited, business-only communication when kids or legal ties are involved) and offer specific tools for when the waves hit: take a walk with music or a podcast, call a trusted friend, schedule therapy, distract yourself with organizing or creative work, and record or write what you want to say—but don’t send it. I also encourage making a personal “impulse plan” you can access anywhere, and using past painful outcomes as motivation to pause. The goal isn’t perfection; it’s fewer impulsive moments and more choices that support your healing, day by day.I close with a reminder that your feelings are valid; it’s the actions we take that matter for our long-term peace. Create distance from avoidable triggers, keep communication tight and purposeful if you must co-parent or share assets, and build your menu of healthy alternatives for those intense moments. We’re in this together—step by step toward feeling better and moving forward. FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode, I break down the risks of dating in a shallow dating pool—where you primarily connect with men you already know through friends, work, school, or your kids’ activities. I explain why this can feel convenient and safe (pre-vetting, familiarity, reputation), but also how it keeps many women stuck: more people in your business, higher potential for ex drama, tougher breakups due to community overlap, limited options, and ultimately more of the same unsatisfactory results. I share a clear path forward: intentionally expand your pool by meeting strangers in new places and spaces—networking events, hobbies, meetups, local groups, and venues outside your usual circles. If you’re not content with your current dating prospects, it’s time to deepen the pool and invite variety so you can create different (and better) outcomes.--------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 24: Cesspools or Infinity Pools: Which Are You Swimming In?https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--24-Cesspools-or-Infinity-Pools-Which-Are-You-Swimming-In-e28o75pMINISODE: Here For A Good Time Not A Long Time- No-Pressure Datinghttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/MINISODE-Here-For-A-Good-Time-Not-A-Long-Time--No-Pressure-Dating-e29sm1iEp. 26: Lower Your First Date Standardshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--26-Lower-Your-First-Date-Standards-e2a3j5oEp. 30: The 5 Tenets of Dating Betterhttps://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/30 FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

Drawing from my work with women and my own experiences, I outline the core truths of the dating process: you have to engage with strangers, you will encounter poorly behaved matches, misaligned preferences are part of romantic interviewing, you may need to make changes (or decide not to) in yourself or your circumstances, and there will be disappointment and frustration along the way. I walk through how to set realistic expectations, strengthen your vetting skills, and protect your emotional wellbeing by choosing disappointment over heartbreak when things aren’t a fit. You’ll learn practical ways to prepare mentally, cut off misaligned or inappropriate dates efficiently, reflect on what you’re willing (and unwilling) to change, and keep dating momentum with a roster mindset so one setback isn’t the end of your story.

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn today’s wonderfully real and slightly chaotic episode, I share an update on the “mom friends” journey I first talked about back in episode two—recording between kid cameos, dog breathing, and a rogue fungus gnat. Four years into my new town, these friendships with other moms have blossomed into a supportive, reciprocal network that enriches my life, my kids’ lives, and even my dating and partnership. From emergency pickups, childcare swaps, and school drop-off help, to shared resources, playdates, pool days, and planning couples’ nights as life evolves, I talk about how these relationships create safety, reduce stress, and expand possibilities—especially for single moms who are dating.I also offer practical, intentional ways to build your own local circle: show up at school events (even the boring ones), say hello to neighbors, try Meetup, and dive into local Facebook mom groups tailored to your stage of parenting. You only need one or two solid connections to feel held—and to give that support back. If you haven’t yet, go back to episode two for the origin story, then listen in for how those early introductions turned into a community that makes dating logistics easier, parenting lighter, and everyday life more joyful.------------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 2: Making (Mom) Friends https://creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--2-Making-Mom-Friends-e21kddd FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of the Better to Better podcast, we delve into the art of swiping left or right on dating apps, focusing on the preliminary vetting process. I emphasizes the importance of using dating apps as a directory to meet potential partners rather than attempting to date within the app itself. By doing so, users can avoid missing out on opportunities due to over-vetting. The discussion highlights the significance of physical attraction as the first impression on dating apps and advises listeners to consider whether they are attracted enough to a profile before swiping right. The host also shares personal experiences and insights on how men and women present themselves differently on these platforms, often catering to what their own gender finds appealing rather than what the opposite gender might be looking for.The episode further explores the concept of baseline preferences and deal breakers, encouraging listeners to have a clear idea of their ideal partner list before engaging in the dating scene. The host provides practical advice on identifying key preferences such as lifestyle choices, location, and family plans, which can be crucial in deciding whether to swipe left or right. By focusing on these preliminary deal breakers, listeners can make informed decisions and avoid wasting time on incompatible matches. The episode concludes with a reminder to lower first date standards and prioritize in-person interactions to truly get to know potential partners beyond their online profiles.-------------------------------------------------------Ep. 15: How to EFFECTIVELY Use Dating Appshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--15-How-to-EFFECTIVELY-Use-Dating-Apps-e23suk1Ep. 26: Lower Your First Date Standardshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--26-Lower-Your-First-Date-Standards-e2a3j5o FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

I discuss the societal pressures and negative narratives that often discourage women from dating, especially those over 35 with children. By sharing my personal experiences, I aim to empower women to acknowledge their circumstances, identify what they want to change, and prioritize those changes to enhance their dating lives. I emphasize the importance of being intentional about the type of partner you seek and the necessity of reassessing your dating strategies to ensure they align with your personal goals and circumstances.Additionally, I share a personal affirmation inspired by a quote from Audre Lorde, "Nothing I accept about myself can be used against me to diminish me." This affirmation underscores the importance of self-acceptance and living unapologetically, free from the judgments of others. I encourage listeners to write their own affirmations to reinforce their self-worth and navigate life and dating with confidence.
