Whether you’re facing a similar diagnosis, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about the realities of living with hip dysplasia, this episode offers an honest and informative look at navigating this complex journey. Tune in for insights, encouragement, and a story of resilience and hope.

Today we are joined by Bethany Gardner-Blue who is a Licensed Associate Marriage and Family Therapist specializing in relationship issues, Women’s issues, ADHD, LGBTQ+, and sex therapy.

In this episode, we will be discussing sexuality and getting comfortable with having "sex" conversations. I hope that by the end of this episode, you will feel less guilt, shame, or fear surrounding this topic. So many individuals aren’t raised in a sex-positive environment, which creates problems with their future partners or their self-down the road. Let this episode serve as an education and awareness check, so that future you can feel more at-ease when it comes to your sexuality.

In my 25 years of life, one thing has become increasingly clear: adulting is not easy. We're put into a world where bills, taxes, and life's complexities demand our attention, but we're rarely equipped with the necessary tools to navigate it. Today we’re going to talk about all of it.

Today we have a very special guest with us, 10-year-old Charlie. We're here to explore the world through her eyes, talk about girlhood in the modern world, and normalize the conversations that are often challenging but so important.

Feeling uncertain about your romantic relationships? If so, this episode is for you, from someone who completely gets it. Today we'll be talking about the importance of knowing what you need in a romantic relationship, understanding your self-worth, and recognizing the signs that it might be time to move on.

It's easy to fall into the trap of thinking that you have to settle for less than you deserve in a relationship, but that's not true. We are going to talk about finding the courage to end/move on from "red flag" relationships + opening up the door for finding a more meaningful kind of romantic relationship.
