I’m always getting so many questions about what’s the best way to communicate with someone who you are starting to get to know or starting to date. So I decided to rate the most common ones.

Y’all let me know what you think and if you would rate them differently. 🤷🏽‍♀️

Do you only work with people in the US? No, we actually work with other matchmakers across the world. 🌎

#LTKWorkwear #LTKdayinmylife #LTKOver40

Do I get to see photos of the people I am being matched with? Of course! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

#LTKOver40 #LTKdayinmylife #LTKWorkwear

Is matchmaking for everybody? Nope! 😬

Can I see the people in the database? Absolutely not! 🤨

Shooting promo video for the company, one of my least favorite things about my work. 🥺

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKWorkwear

My first time being on TV and it had to be live, I was kinda nervous and extremely overjoyed by the fact that I was going to be seen by tons of people across their three stations. San Francisco will forever be one of my most favorite cities. 🙏🏼

Date Night, Dallas Symphony Orchestra (DSO). 😘

DIFFA is one of my most favorite charity events held here in the Dallas area. I had to share this photo as we get ready for another year of fabulousness of the best runway show, that is DIFFA! 🥂

I made a decision this year to only work with other local businesses to host our singles events. Because we work with singles across the country, we used to host singles events in other cities to bring them together but now I am enjoying getting to know more local business owners and spreading the love locally across DFW. #spreadthelove

#LTKWorkwear #LTKdayinmylife #LTKstorytime

This is how it all started, I personally never even knew that matchmaking was a real profession until I started looking for help finding my person. And need I say that it was as easy as I had hoped it would be. Here’s to Six years in this business that brings me so much joy in helping others find their person. 🥳🥳🥳

Maxwell and I attended the Boss Vision conference and as an Entreprenista we had to take a selfie in front of their sign. 🩷

#LTKdayinmylife #LTKWorkwear #LTKstorytime

I’m so blessed to have been recognized by the City of Dallas as a leader in the African American community here in the DFW area. I love the work that we do and the communities of people that we get to work with. ♥️

One of the things that I love most about being an entrepreneur is networking and learning from other local entrepreneurs. 🙋🏽‍♀️

I came across this really cool fairytale inspired donut shop in Flower Mound and I just had to go in, unfortunately they were already sold out by 10:30 in the morning, but no worries I will be back.

Over the past 6 years I have been asked so many times to share my favorite first date ideas so I decided to rate a few of my top favorite ideas. 😎

Y’all let me know what you think and if you would rate them differently. 🤷🏽‍♀️

I’d also like to know what some of your favorite first date ideas are and how you would rate them. 😊

I became single again when I was 55 and had no clue how to get back out there. This is one of the reasons that I decided to become a matchmaker and a date & relationship coach.

Recently I was having a conversation with some people who were trying to figure out my age and it was a really sweet conversation and it made me realize that having a peaceful and drama free relationship helps me to live a stress free life and I believe that shows in my appearance. ☺️

Target unboxing part 2, I love having my non food items shipped to my house from Target. The shipments typically arrive in a few days so I never have to wait long for anything.

I am a lipstick girly and I have been wearing Revlon’s rum raisin for years, it’s definitely one of my tried and true colors that I will be buying as long as they are selling it. 💄

Target unboxing part 1, don’t feel like you are settling when you’re pretty much getting what you want in a partner. I have always lived by the 80/20 and 90/10 rules as it relates to everything in my life and that includes finding a long term relationship. 👩🏽‍❤️‍👨🏻

How do I start prioritizing dating again as a single parent? 💭

Over the years, this is one of the questions I get a lot from single moms–and some single dads too–and the truth is that dating when you have children, especially young children, is difficult.

Being a parent is a full-time job in itself, and with everything else we have going on, dating can often be something that we put on the back burner of life.

But that doesn’t always have to be the case!

It might take more planning, but if anyone can do it, it’s you, Mama! 🫶🏼

And just know that if you ever need any help along the way, I’ll be here to lend a hand anytime 🙂‍↕️🌟.

One of the most favorite parts of my job is the venue tours that we do when deciding what other small businesses to work with. I am so happy that other entrepreneurs and small businesses support what we do to help bring singles together. 👩🏽‍❤️‍👨🏻

I have lived in Coppell for three years and I am not sure that I have ever seen the dog park before, so we had to take our dog there this morning.

He loves to walk around and explore and sometimes plays with other dogs but for the most part he’s a loner. 🐾

My sweater is from Loft, sweatpants from Amazon and my Adidas are from Kohls.

What a fun way to start the day. 🐶

Thoughts On Age Gap Relationships ⬇️

Truthfully, for the longest time I have been against age gap relationships where one person is more than 15 years older than the other person.

However, nowadays I am starting to loosen up on my hesitations against larger age gap relationships because at the end of the day, the most important part is that people find someone who they can enjoy spending time with, and who they can happily share their life with.

Am I still an advocate for dating someone closer to your age? Yes! Do I think that being in a 15+ year age gap at 25 v at 45 is a little different? Also yes lol 😅.

But ultimately, if that’s what makes two adults happy, who am I to judge?

What do y’all think?

We had to make a Target run to our local store in Flower Mound to get ready for spring and to get a jump start on all the deals that are happening right now. 🛍️

We had the best time hanging out with pugs and their families at the 30th Annual Pug Derby over in Grapevine. I can’t wait to host our singles event next month with CuppaPug and DFW Pug Rescue in Frisco. 🐾

We were back at Gallery DeFi yesterday wrapping up the clues for our singles indoor scavenger hunt tomorrow. This is probably one of my most anticipated events and I am excited that tomorrow is the day. 🎨

Shooting promotional content for events is one of my favorite parts of our work. The creativity and fun that goes into it is the best part.

Is matchmaking just for people who want to get married?!

Not if you don’t want it to be 🙂‍↕️…

My daughter and I went to @Target this week to do a little spring shopping 🛍️ and she was kind enough to model a few pieces for me for LTK!

Exact items linked below & recommendations for her socks too! 😹

Many of us have a love-hate relationship with dating apps (mostly in that we love to hate them 😂), and for the last video in our Dating App Tips series I am encouraging you to lean into that frustration!

Get off the apps! Go outside! Talk to people in real life, whether that’s at a singles event or on the sidewalk walking your dog, the connection you’re looking for can’t only be found online–so go out and find it where you most expect it. ♥️
