  • Unsure

    It’s challenging to date again after losing your life partner. You know you don’t want to be alone for the rest of your life, but the dating world has changed, and you may not know where to start. If you’re like me, you may be thinking thoughts like: Am I ready to date again? Where do I even begin? Are there any good men left? Why would someone be interested in me?

  • Overwhelmed

    When you’re a widow, the thought of dating online, texting, and meeting someone new can seem overwhelming…and exciting. I help widows and widowers navigate the complexities of modern romance, guiding them through dating with tools, grace and confidence.

  • Hesitant

    You know that nagging thought that creeps in, whispering that you'll never find a love like the one you lost? I've been there. Staring into the mirror, feeling the weight of loneliness, I remember thinking that love had left my life for good. Fear and guilt clung to me like shadows, whispering, 'Why even bother?'. But you know what? There's a truth I discovered on my journey from heartbreak to hope. I felt awkward, scared, even angry at times. But amidst those emotions, I also found curiosity, courage, and happiness. I realized that the death of my husband didn't have to be the end of love for me. Staying single wasn't the only answer.

It’s lovely to meet you,

I get it. After losing my 41 year-old husband to cholangiocarcinoma, a rare cancer, I plunged into the depths of grief, swore I'd never love again, and began to rebuild my life. My path took me from Auckland to Hong Kong and Sydney, where I relearned to live on my own and discovered I wanted to open my heart and find love again. It wasn't about moving on; it was about moving forward into the future with hope, an expanded heart, and the courage to find love. I knew what real love felt like, because I once had it, and I wasn't about to settle for anything less.

My mission is to help other widows and widowers find the love they want in a way that honors their past. I've navigated the painful waters of grief and rediscovery, and I'm here to share what I've learned. I hold coaching certifications from the Life Coach School and Grace Papers, and a degree from U.C. Berkeley.
