🎙️ THE AFTER WIFE — Season 2, Episode 6

SWIPE RIGHT?

What Your Dating Profile Really Says About You

Ladies, we need to talk about dating profiles. 😂

🎣 The fish pictures.

😎 Sunglasses in EVERY picture.

🚽 Bathroom mirror selfies.

👥 Group pictures where we have to play Where’s Waldo? to figure out which one you are.

📸 Pictures that are clearly from 2013.

And our personal favorite…

“Just ask.”

SIR. THAT IS WHAT THE PROFILE IS FOR. 😂

This episode, we’re breaking down the world of online dating profiles:

🚩 The photos that make us immediately swipe left
💚 The things that actually catch our attention
📱 Dating profile clichés that need to retire
😂 The profiles that leave us with SO many questions
❤️ What makes someone seem genuine and approachable
👀 And whether dating apps have made us way too picky

Because your dating profile is essentially your first impression.

And the goal isn’t getting everyone to swipe right.

It’s getting the right person to stop scrolling.

🔥 “Authenticity will always outperform perfection.”

Now we want to hear from YOU:

👇 What is your automatic dating-profile SWIPE LEFT?

Fish picture?
Bathroom selfie?
No bio?
Every photo in sunglasses?
Something else?

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨

IS AGE REALLY JUST A NUMBER?

Inspired by Netflix’s Age of Attraction.

Would you date someone 10 years older?

What about 10 years younger?

And does your answer change after divorce?

In this episode, we’re talking about:

❤️ Age-gap relationships
🧠 Age versus emotional maturity
⏳ Being in different stages of life
🚩 Red flags that exist at every age
💚 The qualities that matter more the second time around
👀 Family, friends, and everyone else having an opinion
🔥 The double standard older women face when dating younger men

Age may affect your lifestyle, family dynamics, retirement plans, and future goals—but it cannot tell you whether someone is kind, emotionally available, independent, or capable of building a healthy relationship.

Our takeaway?

Age tells you how long someone has lived. It doesn’t tell you how they’ve lived.

So tell us:

What is the biggest age difference you would consider—and would you date older or younger?

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨

🎙️ Season 2, Episode 4

Don’t Become Naomi

Inspired by The Divorce by Freida McFadden.

This isn’t a book review.

It’s a conversation about what divorce can teach us.

As we read Naomi’s story, we couldn’t stop thinking…

How many of us have ignored our intuition because we wanted to believe the best in someone?

We’re talking about:

💔 Being blindsided by divorce

🧠 Gaslighting and doubting your own reality

⚖️ High-conflict divorce tactics

🚩 The mistakes heartbreak can lead us to make

❤️ Why trusting yourself matters

👯 Finding your “Cora”

🏡 Starting over after your life changes overnight

One of our biggest takeaways:

“The most dangerous thing Jeremy steals isn’t Naomi’s marriage… it’s her confidence in herself.”

And maybe the biggest lesson of all:

“Believe yourself.”

Whether you’ve read the book or you’re simply navigating life after divorce, this conversation is about rebuilding, boundaries, and refusing to let someone else rewrite your reality.

🎙️ Season 2, Episode 3

The Crash: Parenting, Accountability & Resilience

Last week we talked about heartbreak.

This week…

we’re talking about parenting.

Netflix’s The Crash has sparked countless conversations, but one question keeps coming up:

What can parents learn from this case?

This episode isn’t about debating the verdict.

It’s about discussing the lessons every parent can take away.

We’re talking about:

❤️ Parenting vs. being a friend

❤️ Emotional resilience

❤️ Teaching kids how to survive heartbreak

❤️ Accountability versus excuses

❤️ Preparing our children for disappointment instead of protecting them from every difficult emotion

One of our favorite takeaways:

“Our job isn’t to prevent every heartbreak. It’s to help our children survive it.”

Whether you’re raising young kids, teenagers, or navigating co-parenting after divorce, this conversation is one every parent should hear.

🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts.

💌 Have a story to share? We’d love to hear from you! If you’ve experienced divorce, co-parenting, remarriage, or another major life transition and would like to be a guest on The After Wife, send us a message or email us at [email protected].

🚨 NEW EPISODE 🚨

🎙️ The After Wife
Season 2, Episode 2

💔 The Crash: Love, Attachment & Heartbreak 💔

Inspired by Netflix’s The Crash and the Mackenzie Shirilla case, this episode isn’t about debating the verdict.

It’s about the conversations the documentary raises:

👉 Why does losing a relationship sometimes feel like losing yourself?

👉 What’s the difference between love and attachment?

👉 Why does rejection hurt so much?

👉 How do we survive heartbreak?

👉 And how do we teach our kids that heartbreak is survivable?

Because whether you’re going through your first breakup or a divorce after decades together, one thing is true:

Sometimes what we’re grieving isn’t the person.

It’s the life we thought we were going to have.

Join us as we discuss heartbreak, emotional dependency, identity, red flags, and rebuilding after loss.

Mother’s Day after divorce hits differently.

Not just because the logistics change…

👉 the entire emotional weight of the day changes.

Before separation:
family photos
forced smiles
trying to make the day “perfect”
carrying everyone emotionally while quietly feeling unseen

After separation:
grieving traditions
rebuilding new ones
trying to stay strong for your kids
learning to celebrate yourself

This week on The After Wife, we’re talking about the before and after of Mother’s Day after divorce.

💔 the loneliness no one talks about
🔥 emotional labor moms carry
😂 Coparenting Chaos stories
📱 social media vs. real life motherhood
✨ and learning to rebuild the holiday on your own terms

Because some of the strongest mothers…

👉 are rebuilding while still showing up every single day.
