Did you know dating in the way you know it is changing as we head toward 2026? What if you could decode the trends, ditch the overwhelm, and finally feel confident navigating love in this new world? In Episode 425 of The Charisma Quotient, "Dating Trends 2026: What's Really Working Now" Kimmy walks you through what's in and what's out for dating in 2026.
In this episode, Kimmy tackles the burning questions and anxieties that so many later-life daters are quietly asking: How do you date confidently when the "playbook" keeps changing? Are there actually new dating skills you need, or is it all just noisy hype? She shares a candid story from one of her clients, walking listeners through mindset shifts and practical strategies that empower real connection—whether you're fresh out of a long relationship, fed up with online fatigue, or just craving authentic romance in an era that feels crowded and confusing.
You'll hear:
Why endless swiping, ghosting, and "situationships" are on the way out—and what's replacing them.
How in-person interactions ("IRL dating") are becoming the hottest trend, especially for later-life daters.
How learning about the latest trends will help your dating success
Actionable strategies for shifting mindset, getting out of scarcity, and slowing down to build confidence.
What it means to date "smarter, not harder"—from micro-moments of connection to authentic flirting.
