Say Yes to Dating Yourself is a raw, funny, and honest conversation for Gen X dads and men navigating fatherhood, divorce, dating, and loneliness, where we break down why learning to enjoy your own company is a game-changer for confidence, mental health, and relationships. In this episode, we talk about resetting your mindset after divorce or burnout, how self-dating helps men rebuild identity outside of being a husband or provider, and why loneliness doesn’t mean failure—it means it’s time to reconnect with yourself. Through real talk, humor, and emotional insight, we share practical ways men can reclaim peace, purpose, and self-respect while also helping women better understand the male perspective on independence, healing, and emotional growth. If you’re a Gen X dad feeling stuck, disconnected, or unsure how to move forward, this video reminds you that you’re not alone—and that saying yes to dating yourself might be the first step toward becoming the man you want to be.
