Get expert, personal advice from someone who met their spouse by online dating. Twice!

I met both my first and my second husband through online dating, so I’m a firm believer in its powers, whatever your age or stage of life.
I’m also someone who has done online-dating the right way and the wrong way. The first time, I was solely focused on meeting Mr Right. The second time around, I set out to meet the person who was right for ME.
And I did.
When I rejoined Match the second time, I was statistically more likely to get struck by lightning than to marry again. I was over 40, a single mum, and a redhead (by far the least popular hair colour online).
But I knew what worked.
I’d worked with Match as their Dating Expert for 10 years, and had got the inside story on dating websites. I’d met thousands of members, and the engineers who built the site.
Using everything I’d learned, I met my second husband within 3 months of joining Match.
I’m now the Dating Coach for Ourtime – the UK’s dating website for the over-50s. I write advice columns and run online-dating coaching live events, where you can ask me all your questions about online dating.
I also offer personal, 1:1 online-dating coaching, and profile check-ups.
Personal Online-Dating Coaching
This is a great option if you want someone to walk you through the whole online-dating process and get you started. I can help you:
- Break through your blocks
- Realise who you’re really looking for
- Create a profile that attracts only those people – not time-wasters, or your standard “type”.
We can also craft the perfect first message.
Online-dating coaching is fun, helpful, warm, and confidence-boosting. Nobody is born knowing how to date online!
My personal coaching focuses on practical information (like setting up your profile), giving you a fresh start, and reigniting your confidence. I help you to enjoy the process.
Finding The One should be fun.
Thank you so much for your notes, and for a wonderful session – your warm and kind approach gave me a genuine hope for the future – not to mention the practical suggestions.

Online-Dating Coaching Live Events
I absolutely love running these events. They’re fun, interactive, and really uplifting. Between 30 and 150 guests attend either in person or (more recently) online, and we discuss 2 or 3 different dating topics, give advice, and have a live Q&A. There’s usually a good mix of male and female attendees and yes, we’ve sparked a few dates.
