#39 Finding Connection in Contrast and Differences
What if our connections are with people who are not like us, who did not lead the same life? "Seek out similar" is among the most common pieces of dating advice. But as a Later Dater you're going to interact with this idea in a whole new way because many Later Daters chose different paths and pursuits. Listen in as Lakshmi walks you through how to connect over differences and contrasting lives.

Share this with anyone who thinks that they "must" date someone who has the same relationship history as them (divorced, kids, didn't marry, widowed) etc. The best part about Later Daters today is the diversity of choices that were made by people.

The Later Dater Today is a podcast all about dating Later In Life but mostly the 45-59 window. This overlooked and often misunderstood part of the dating timeline is both under-discussed and wildly undervalued. Host, Lakshmi Rengarajan has been trying to bring both innovation as well as an analog approach to how we date today for the past 15 years.
