<description>&lt;div&gt;I’m so excited to share this week’s powerful story, featuring a journey of resilience, hope, and finding love again against the odds. In this heartfelt episode, we dive into the incredible experience of one of our listeners who, at 48, faced a life-changing loss: the sudden passing of her husband from a heart attack. Grieving and single for over a decade, she never imagined herself dating again, let alone getting remarried.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
But everything changed when a friend issued a life-altering challenge: give &lt;a href="http://match.com/"&gt;Match.com&lt;/a&gt; a shot for six months. Little did she know that this challenge would lead her on a transformative journey, one that would ultimately bring her to the doors of the Smart Dating Academy.&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;We talked about:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Overcoming the Fear of Starting Over&lt;/strong&gt;: Imagine not dating for over 32 years. How do you even begin to navigate the dating world again? We discuss the struggles and triumphs of re-entering the dating scene after loss.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;The Power of Support and a Clear Process&lt;/strong&gt;: Teresa opens up about how the guidance, tools, and support from the Smart Dating Academy helped her identify and attract the right type of partner.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Defining What You Want in a Partner&lt;/strong&gt;: Why is knowing what you want so important, and how can you stay true to that vision? We explore the mindset shifts that made a difference.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Taking Things Slow and Building Friendship First&lt;/strong&gt;: The magic of getting to know someone as a friend before diving into romance, and how this approach created a solid foundation for her current marriage.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Using the Marriage Map Tool&lt;/strong&gt;: Learn about the impact of this tool and how it guided Teresa to determine if her partner, Curtis, was the right match.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;div&gt;Teresa's story is a beautiful reminder that love can come back into your life when you least expect it, and that with the right approach and support, you can find a partner who complements your life perfectly.&lt;br&gt;
