At 32, writer and self-proclaimed late bloomer Allora Dannon had never been kissed, never been asked out, and had never been on a date. Then one cuffing season changed everything 💛 This week on Ask a Matchmaker, Matchmaker Maria sits down with Allora, author of the new memoir Who Is She: A Late Bloomer's Survival Guide, to unpack what it means to start dating later in life. They talk about growing up as the oldest of ten, learning to prioritize yourself after years of caretaking, breaking through embarrassment, and finding confidence (and community) as an adult beginner in love! Whether you're navigating your first real relationship or just learning to date with more intention, this heartfelt conversation will remind you that it's never too late to bloom 🌷 🎧 Follow Allora and grab her new book! https://www.alloradannon.com/book https://www.tiktok.com/@alloradannon https://www.instagram.com/alloradannon ☀️ https://agapeescapes.com/ use ESCAPES150 for an early bird discount! ☀️ Be sure to use the promo code: roundtable50 to join Maria's community or submit your own dating question! 👉 https://www.matchmakermaria.com/ ✨ Don't forget to order Maria's book, follow us on social, and leave a review if you're feeling lovable and likable. 💕 🤩 Check out My Websites and Socials! 🙌 💖Podcast Website: https://www.askamatchmaker.com/ 💖Agape Match Website: https://agapematch.com/ 💖Matchmaker Maria TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@realmatchmakermaria 💖Matchmaker Maria Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/matchmakermaria 💖Agape Match Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/agapematch/ 💖Agame Match Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/AgapeMatch 💖Agape Match Twitter: https://www.x.com/AgapeMatch 🙋♀️Our Producer Venetia AKA V Website - https://www.venetiageras.com/ Twitter - https://X.com/venetiaageras Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/venetiaageras/ 🎥 by WTF Media Studios Website - https://www.wtfmediastudios.com/home ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗 Ask a Matchmaker is your weekly go-to podcast for all things love and relationships.
