In this episode I chat with my friend Carlyn Oswald as we try to lend some online dating tips to my listeners about setting up your profile, first impressions, red flags and background checks. I even share my limited experience using Tinder.
My first Aupair gig landed me in Austin, Texas when I was twenty years old. I had never written a song, and I have very few memories of what it was like being single and dating. Now I'm 43 years young, and chatting on my podcast with my guest Carlyn, who was only six years old when I lived with her family as their summer Aupair. Now she's all grown up, and has a plethora of experience to bring me up to speed on what it's like living single in Northwest Arkansas. It was so fun to re-connect with Carlyn after all these years.
