If you’re among the millions of women for whom dating after divorce is a reality, our discussion with Ann Cutbill Lenane is for you. Searching for love – or simply dating for fun – comes with frustrations and challenges such as being ghosted or searching countless online profiles in hopes of finding a connection.

As a busy mom to college-age daughters and founder of a group called Wise and Wonderful Women, Ann has faced some unique challenges. Along the way, she’s learned that boldness, courage, and a lighthearted approach makes all the difference, particularly when you’re searching for romance. 

The implications of age come into the conversation too, as Ann explains how her decision to mention her age in her viral taxi ad led many to question whether she was ruining her chances by openly stating that she was “56, fit, and looking for love.” 

In This Episode

Ann and Jennifer share some real talk about the realities of dating after divorce, particularly while balancing the demands of work and family. During the conversation, Ann shares some of her own unusual experiences with dating, searching for a great relationship in NYC’s crazy dating environment.
