If you've ever had thoughts like...

Are there any quality people out there my age?

You’ve done the work. You know yourself better than ever. But it feels like most people your age are either unavailable, uninterested in something meaningful, or carrying more emotional baggage than they’re willing to unpack. You’re not looking for perfect — just someone emotionally mature, kind, and real.

I am a woman of a certain age who is entering the dating arena following a 13-year marriage...

​

Time had slipped by me in the world of dating.  With the advent of “on-line” dating, every thing had changed and I felt like I didn’t know where to start meeting eligible men. Working with Suzanna has helped me to gain confidence and to move forward. It has also helped me to know better who I am and what I am looking for in a relationship.

I am excited to see where I will be in another year! I have appreciated Suzanna’s honesty and encouragement along the journey."​
