You did not expect to be here. Single at 47. Or 54. Or 61. Navigating dating apps, bad profile photos, and the strange sensation of putting yourself back out there after a marriage - or a loss - that reshaped everything about who you are. Starting Over. Again. is the midlife dating guide that takes you seriously. Written by a licensed marriage and family therapist (Vanessa Cole, LMFT) and a grief and life transitions coach who rebuilt his own life after loss (Cole Hale), this book gives you the honest, research-backed, no-nonsense guidance that most relationship books are too polite to offer.
