Bitter to Better

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn part 2 of Mom Moments with Sherie, we dive into her evolving career in mental health—from years of in‑home substance use recovery work and pandemic burnout to finding a new groove in research. We then pivot to self‑care and life outside the office: luxurious bath rituals, DIY home projects, and travel as restoration. From Vegas and Riviera Maya plans to dream trips across Japan, New Zealand, Peru, and national parks, we explore what it looks like to craft joy and adventure at every stage. We close with a very important mom hack—making space for kids to fully express themselves and practicing rupture and repair—which has transformed her relationship with her daughter and echoes her belief in therapy for everyone.------------------------------------------------------Date Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

Drawing from my own experience—especially on Hinge—I share why using mixed media matters (photos, a voice note, video), and the specific photo types that help best display your personality and lifestyle. I also explain why you shouldn’t lead with your trauma or a list of “don’ts,” and how to keep your profile warm, inviting, and easy for potential matches to engage with.Beyond the profile itself, I offer simple usage habits to improve your results: treat the app like a part-time commitment with daily 10-minute sessions, set small outreach goals, and remember that online dating is a numbers game. These quick, actionable tweaks can help you increase engagement and better dating partner quality. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 15: How to EFFECTIVELY Use Dating Appshttps://youtu.be/GPkmPMhLIYgDate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this powerful Part 2 of Mom Moments with Devon (with a Y), I sit down with Devon as she shares the raw, riveting continuation of her story—from discovering her partner’s devastating betrayal to executing a literal great escape with her kids from a tiny Caribbean island during COVID. She recounts the terrifying boat ride on a wooden fishing vessel named “Real Shit,” the scramble to safety, and the emotional aftermath that led to rebuilding life in the States. We also dive into the complexity of co-parenting with boundaries, choosing not to weaponize children, and the nuanced grief of ending a relationship with a “good person” who isn’t your person. Devon opens up about hitting her lowest low, the moment that kept her anchored as a mother, and the unexpected healing that came from saying yes to joy—whether that was Disney on panic-fueled cash, an extravagant divorce party, or learning to date again with intention. We talk about guilt, growth, YOLO seasons, and how prioritizing excitement and rest can actually make us better moms. If you’ve ever had to start over, calibrate your standards, or give yourself permission to live, this one’s for you.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date Better As A Mom Webinar Registration: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_k2p-vY5jS8iNdJauiFtkMADate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-betterJoin Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracieWebinar  FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

I guide you to dream big first then narrow into seasonal goals you can realistically integrate between now and early spring across areas like health, parenting, finances, relationships, and career. I share my own focus on building consistent habits plus how to identify your personal roadblocks and design simple, sustainable systems to overcome them. We also explore mindset practices that keep your energy aligned, including visualization and a powerful scripting ritual I use every year: the “look-back letter.” If you’re pausing dating this season, consider it your invitation to recalibrate, build small daily habits, and evolve into the version of yourself you’re excited to carry into the new year.--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Date Better as a Mom Webinar Registration: https://us06web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_k2p-vY5jS8iNdJauiFtkMA CORRECTION: Webinar will start 7:30PM ETDate Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ _r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6The Magic by Rhonda Byrne https://www.thesecret.tv/products/the-magic-book/Law of Attraction Changed My Life Podcast https://shows.acast.com/loacml FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

I cover practical ways to stay “date ready,” including curating a five-outfit cold-weather rotation, adjusting hair and makeup palettes, and lining up go-to indoor venues so you’re never scrambling for plans. I also share tips for setting realistic expectations as schedules slow down for travel and festivities, staying intentional with your calendar (hello, Thanksgiving Eve outing) and using travel to practice low‑stakes social skills. We also walk through potential winter dating pitfalls and I encourage self-reflection to consider whether a seasonal dating break serves you.------------------------------------------------------Date Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this Mom Moments episode of Bitter to Better, I sit down with my dear friend Kim Forte—mom, mediator-in-training, longtime attorney, and all-around truth-teller—for a wide-ranging, honest conversation about the highs and lows of parenting and partnership. We celebrate a community win from a small-but-mighty Election Day bake sale that far exceeded fundraising goals, and we unpack the power of rupture-and-repair after tough moments with our kids. We talk about shifting from dependence to interdependence as our fifth graders grow, letting children try their own solutions, and staying grounded amid the never-ending mental load of passports, school schedules, and the holiday season.Kim shares her transition from litigation to peacemaking and what divorce and relationship mediation can offer families who want to protect their kids’ wellbeing while separating with dignity. We dive into practical self-care that actually fits real life, including the three buckets—self, couple, and family care—plus creating go-to lists for dates and family adventures. From setting sacred quiet time to teaching kids to “read the room,” from snack sanity and balanced meals to evolving conversations about emotions and intimacy as kids enter tween years—this is a candid, warm, and funny kitchen-table chat for any parent riding the waves.------------------------------------------------------All Joy and No Fun by Jennifer Senior https://jennifersenior.net/all-joy-and-no-fun------------------------------------------------------Date Better Program: https://www.coachtracie.life/date-better Join Email List: https://app.podia.com/editor/pages/17498315/edit Coach Tracie YouTube Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@CoachTracie Website: https://www.coachtracie.life/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thecoachtracie/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thecoachtracie?_r=1&_t=ZP-91Qbt8bijc6 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/thecoachtracie FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode of Better to Better, I share why living a full life is an essential foundation for dating, healing from breakups, and managing stress. I walk you through starting with the dream—vision boards, journaling, and visualizations—to define what a full life looks and feels like for you in the next year to five years. I offer practical examples from my own life, from solo city getaways and low‑stakes solo outings to building experiences with friends and family, and I explain how purposeful experiences naturally raise your standards and expand your sense of what’s possible.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Join my email listhttps://www.coachtracie.life/newsletterJessica Chastainhttps://www.imdb.com/name/nm1567113/ FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services

FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/servicesIn this episode, I break down the risks of dating in a shallow dating pool—where you primarily connect with men you already know through friends, work, school, or your kids’ activities. I explain why this can feel convenient and safe (pre-vetting, familiarity, reputation), but also how it keeps many women stuck: more people in your business, higher potential for ex drama, tougher breakups due to community overlap, limited options, and ultimately more of the same unsatisfactory results. I share a clear path forward: intentionally expand your pool by meeting strangers in new places and spaces—networking events, hobbies, meetups, local groups, and venues outside your usual circles. If you’re not content with your current dating prospects, it’s time to deepen the pool and invite variety so you can create different (and better) outcomes.--------------------------------------------------------------Ep. 24: Cesspools or Infinity Pools: Which Are You Swimming In?https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--24-Cesspools-or-Infinity-Pools-Which-Are-You-Swimming-In-e28o75pMINISODE: Here For A Good Time Not A Long Time- No-Pressure Datinghttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/MINISODE-Here-For-A-Good-Time-Not-A-Long-Time--No-Pressure-Dating-e29sm1iEp. 26: Lower Your First Date Standardshttps://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tracie-pinnock3/episodes/Ep--26-Lower-Your-First-Date-Standards-e2a3j5oEp. 30: The 5 Tenets of Dating Betterhttps://serve.podhome.fm/episodepage/the-bitter-to-better/30 FREE Date Better As A Mom Webinar registration https://www.coachtracie.life/services
