Felicia Pride On Hiring a Dating Coach After 40, Setting Boundaries, and Healing for Love

Send us Fan Mail Have you ever thought about working with a dating coach? What if that decision didn’t just impact your love life but also changed how you show up for yourself?

In this soul-shifting solo episode, Head Honey Felicia Pride opens up about what inspired her—at 45—to hire a dating coach. From confronting deep-rooted childhood wounds to rethinking what it means to be “too accessible,” Felicia shares her transformative experience with raw honesty, relatable lessons, and her signature Honey flair.

This adventure started with a scroll on Instagram… and led to a year-long program that’s changing her life far beyond the dating apps. Felicia dives into the emotional work of asking for help, the power of being “inconvenient,” and the dating revelations that are reshaping her sense of self.

Plus, she dishes on how coaching compares to matchmaking, her boundaries glow-up, and what she’s finally ready to ask for in love and beyond. Honeys, did you catch that viral TikTok of the 39-year-old who dropped $10K on a dating coach and got engaged within a year?

Whether you were cheering her on or giving her the side-eye, one thing’s clear: more Black women are investing in intentional partnership and choosing themselves first. Read the story here And if you want support in your own dating or healing journey?
