Tia Mowry is ready to stand on her own two feet.
On the upcoming WE tv series Tia Mowry: My Next Act, Tia, 46, “embarks on a fearless and fierce journey of self-discovery” following her divorce from Cory Hardrict, according to an official synopsis.
“Tia was always part of a duo, first as a twin sister, then as a wife…now she’s on her own for the first time in her life,” the description continues. “The struggle is real as Tia takes on dating again while juggling her acting career, businesses, & motherhood. Tia navigates her new normal, looks for love, and finds her happiness along the way with her village of larger-than-life friends and family!”
In the trailer for her upcoming reality show, which is exclusive to PEOPLE, she admits it’s “not easy” going through a divorce.
“I got tired of people thinking that everything was perfect when it wasn't,” she adds. “You want to know what really happened. I'll tell you, it ain't in a headline.”
Tia has her sights set on another chance at love, explaining, “I have this beautiful house, I have amazing kids, but the one thing that I don't have is love.”

However, she reveals that she “never dated” prior to her relationship with Hardrict, joking that her Sister, Sister character “Tia Landry got more dates than Tia Mowry.”
“I had no experience when it came to dating,” she explains and later tells her former Sister, Sister TV mother Jackée Harry, “I just put my foot, like just tiptoe into dating, and I quit.”
Jackée responds with some motherly advice, saying, “You gotta be out there and have fun. It's hunting season, child. Let me tell you.”
Tia wastes no time getting in on the fun as she seen having a girls night out — complete with a strip tease from a male dancer — in Las Vegas. “What I've learned is just let go,” she shares.
She then asks a potential new suitor, “You want me to kiss you?” before giving him a smooch on the cheek.

The actress announced in April that she's filming a new reality TV series that will provide “unlimited access to behind-the-scenes goings-on” of her “multifaceted life," and she later told PEOPLE that authenticity is a core theme of the upcoming show.
"What I love about it is that it's about inspiring women, people in general, when it comes to their transitions in life," Mowry said on the red carpet at the BET Awards on June 30.
"It's very raw, honest, there's lots of tears. There's lots of laughter. There's lots of fun," she also teased of Tia Mowry: My Next Act, which she says she's "been filming" and will "come out this fall."
Mowry's divorce from Cory Hardrict — which was finalized in April 2023, six months after the couple announced their split — will also be explored in the series, as she learns to be single.
"I mean, I'm all about being authentic. And I've showcased some of my feelings and my emotions on social media, whether that was Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, but there's nothing like a reality show," she said.
"[The show will] basically dive in and show the world who I am as a person. And I really wanted to do this to share my story," she continued. "I feel like a lot of people were creating narratives without knowing a story and understanding me and understanding my feelings. And this is my opportunity to use that platform to share my truth."
