Widow We Do Now?
Ep. 277 | The Modern Dating Survival Guide (Widow Edition) with Lauren Salaun

Dating is already complicated—add grief, trauma, and modern communication norms, and it becomes a whole new landscape. This week, Lauren Salaun helps Anita and Mel dig into what it actually looks like to date after loss: how to approach it as a widow, how trauma can show up in your body (yes, even your immune system), and how to figure out what you really want now.
They talk attraction vs. compatibility, must-haves vs. deal breakers, and what makes a relationship not just exciting—but sustainable. There’s also a candid look at the unspoken “rules” of dating today: who pays, who texts first, and how to end things in an era where everyone avoids direct communication.
