How to Be Happy Single: Dr. Karen Gail Lewis on Dating After Divorce, Loneliness & Loving Your Life

What if you don’t love being single, but you still want to love your life? In this episode of Talk With Tara, Tara sits down with Dr. Karen Gail Lewis (relationship, marriage, and family therapist; author of With or Without a Man) to talk about the real emotional challenge many women face: living in the uncertainty of whether you’ll meet the right partner—and building a fulfilling life anyway. You’ll hear practical, therapist-backed advice on dating after divorce, the pressure of a “married society,” and why being single can feel like an ambiguous loss. Dr. Lewis shares how to stop the spiral of “what’s wrong with me?”, rethink your dating “list,” and focus on what you actually need in a healthy relationship. Tara and Dr. Lewis also dive into why weekends can feel lonely, how to plan a rich social life, and the underrated importance of friendship, community, and physical touch for mental health and well-being. In this episode, you’ll learn: • What “ambiguous loss” means for single women and how to live with uncertainty • How to stop self-blame and boost confidence, self-worth, and emotional resilience • A smarter way to evaluate dating criteria (and the real reason “tall” or “wealthy” ends up on lists) • The question to ask on a first or second date to spot emotional availability • How to handle online dating realities without losing hope—or yourself • Why strong female friendships can be the foundation for healthier romantic relationships • Tips for weekends, loneliness, and building a full life with or without a partner If you’re navigating midlife dating, single again after divorce, or simply trying to feel more empowered in your relationship choices, this episode is for you.   Follow me on Instagram @talkwithtarapodcast and please subscribe to keep my show going!  You can also email me at talkwithtarapodcast@gmail.com
