If you are seeking something in life that you simply cannot find, but feel the need for it, then you can create it yourself. Just because you have done one thing and done it very well, doesn't mean you have to continue on that path, simply because others believe you should. In today's episode with educator Jennifer Degenhardt, we talk about  following the breadcrumbs towards your purpose in life. It can be scary, but if you are brave enough to move towards your dreams, even with nay-sayers in your ear, then you just might find yourself living your best life! When we get out of our own way and stop living in fear and embrace what is possible, we start living life on our own terms and feel a freedom like nothing else.

Does the start of a new year bring you anxiety or joy? Do you get excited for what is to come or are you too busy sweeping the last bits of the previous year under the rug? In this final episode of 2023, I talk with you about all the reasons we should celebrate instead of rush to get the year over with. Reflection of all we've accomplished, all we've endured and survived, and all of our growth in 2023 cannot be forgotten in our quest to welcome in a new year. Like many of you, I too can get tangled up in the holiday chaos. But when I catch myself melting down over lost almond extract, I realize the humor of the situation and right myself. I embrace the beauty of another day, and invite you to give yourself grace during these transitional times. We are perfectly imperfect. We deserve to honor all we have been through, all we are going through, and anticipate wonder and excitement for all that is to come in 2024.

Keeping space open for yourself is something we aren't programed to do. I know most of us are at the bottom of the list of priorities, if we even make the list. On today's episode, I talk about keeping space open for the things that are important to us, cutting out the B.S. that holds us back, and allowing ourselves to follow those bread crumbs of curiosity that are leading us towards our True Selves.

Women are so powerful, but sometimes we need support through all we endure. It is possible to reclaim agency over our changing bodies during and after peri-menopause and menopause. We should be celebrating the evolutions through life instead of hiding and living in the darkness. In this episode we discuss a new option for cooling relief of hot flashes with Fria Cooling Jewelry. My conversation with Founder and CEO Sheilisa McNeal, shines light on the topic of female reproductive issues, and how women are changing the narrative on the conversation from shame and hiding, to embracing and normalizing the natural cycles of life.

It makes sense that what satisfied us in our youth might not be what we want in midlife or beyond. Our mind, bodies, and appetites change over time. So, it is natural that what we desire in the bedroom is going to change as well. In this episode, I talked to sex and intimacy expert, Daniela Stevens about normalizing  the conversation around sex. We cover menopause, hormones, and the difference between connected sex and goal-oriented sex. Daniela helps us to better understand and clarifies the path to enjoyable sex no matter our age. If you are curious about tapping into your sexuality in this second half of life, then this is the episode for you!

Life doesn't follow logics. Just because according to you and your judgement of how things should progress, doesn't mean what you expect to happen will happen. So what do we do when we realize the truth is we aren't going to get out of this life everything we wanted?  How can we accept the lot we are given in this life and still be enchanted with it? In this season finale episode, I talk about  lessons I've learned from powerful speakers and spiritual teachers such as Caroline Myss, and Dr. Wayne Dyer. I share how if we respect our Light that is our Truest Self, that we will be honoring how powerful we really are.

I'm feeling it again. That calling. It's CHANGE. When you get that knowing inside of you, do you silence it, or do you heed the call? On this episode I share with you how I've learned to listen to my inner voice and deep knowing  for when The Universe is guiding me towards change. How now, in this season of Fall and the time of letting go, I understand that once again, I'm being guided to make a shift towards something else...and I'd like to take you along with me. Since change is the only constant in life, we need to find a way to be more fully present, have more joy for the journey, and use the wisdom we've learned from our years to adjust and work with what we have in the moment. Nothing is meant to stay the same. By pivoting, we can move along the river of life as it flows instead of working against it.
