This week on The Midlife Mess, I’m talking about love—but not just the romantic kind.

After revisiting 8 Rules of Love by Jay Shetty, I found myself reflecting on something that hit even harder this time around: society teaches us to place romantic love at the top of the pyramid, while often overlooking the many other forms of love that shape our lives just as deeply.

As someone navigating singleness in midlife, this conversation felt personal.

I talk honestly about the tension between wanting partnership while also learning to love yourself more deeply. About how singleness can feel peaceful one day and painful the next. About the life you pictured versus the life you have now—and how to stop treating your current chapter like a waiting room.

We also get into:

  • Why self-love is more about boundaries than bubble baths
  • How we confuse chemistry with compatibility
  • The patterns midlife helps us finally recognize
  • Why peace matters more than potential now
  • The love of friendship, children, family, pets, and community
  • Building a richly loved life—even before romance arrives

If you’re single, partnered, healing, hopeful, or somewhere in between, this one is for you.
