    The Later Dater Today

    Between the ages of 45-59? (Give or take a few years) and dating or thinking about it? You’re in the right place.

    There’s never been a better time to date later in life. Let us show you the advantages of dating later in life AND the places you might overlook or trip.

    Lakshmi Rengarajan, host and guide of the The Later Dater podcast has spent almost 15 years trying to improve and shed an illuminating light on the culture of modern dating. She’s designed one-of-a-kind events that challenged the idea of the dating profile, she worked at the world’s largest dating conglomerate (Match), she studied the art of the set-up and co-hosted Season 7 of Vox Media’s award-winning podcast Land of The Giants: Dating Games.

    And now she’s turned her attention to folks dating “later in life”. Her work to change, improve and challenge modern dating culture and its tropes have been featured in the New York Times, Vanity Fair, Cosmopolitan, Oprah Daily and The Guardian and she’s been a guest on the Pivot Podcast with Kara Swisher and Scott Galloway among others.

    Later Daters are folks who came of age before the smartphone but also have the smarts to leverage and use technology. Modern dating culture has changed quite a bit since the introduction of dating apps but your dual existence might be just to thing that helps you navigate it today.

    You’re not late, you’re right on time. More at www.TheLaterDaterToday.com

    #32 Organic Connections Today and The Power of Tupperware Jan 05, 2024
    Show notes

    Let's dive into the gradual decline of everyday organic moments instead of any "resolution" type content, This isn't meant to be a bummer, it's meant to remind you of things we've lost along the way. It's not just tech and the pandemic. And if we understand a bit more about what happened we can tap into some of our 20th Century wiring:)

    #31 Rethinking Wasted Time In Dating Dec 29, 2023
    Show notes

    Conversations about modern dating can often revolve around an intense desire to "not waste time". Let's dig into it. As we get older, we might feel like time is not on our side, but maybe it's on our side in a new way.

    If you have some time to think more about time, we recommend Episode 15: "Longer Doesn't Always Mean Stronger"

    #30 The Heartbreak Plan For Later Daters Dec 23, 2023
    Show notes

    After many conversations with Later Daters, Lakshmi heard something to the effect of "I just can't get hurt or risk having my heartbroken as I date." We get it. So let's take a look at this common concern and talk about it before, instead of after, it happens.

    #29 What Gen Z Understands About Dating, Why It Matters and Why They Love Gen X Dec 15, 2023
    Show notes

    Between the introduction of Tinder and the 2020 pandemic we have a decade of swiping behind us. Tinder made its mark because it brought an influx of singles (20 somethings) into a dating pool that nobody ever thought they'd find themselves in. Now that same demographic but a different generation is rejecting it. What can we learn about how to better accept what dating apps have to offer by taking a closer look at why Gen Z seems to be rejecting them? Lakshmi brings her thoughts to the headlines.

    Why you should listen to this episode: Not getting married isn't and shouldn't feel like a mark against you. But it's easy to feel or think that it is. But EVERY Later Dater can potentially feel like there is a label slapped on them (divorced, never married, widowed, married multiple times). It's what we make it mean that matters.
