Have you ever found yourself in a heated moment with a loved one, wondering, "How did I get here?” and “Can we get past this?" 

We often jump right into defensiveness and blame the other person for what WE might be feeling, which immediately disconnects us. 

But what if you took a u-turn and used it as an opportunity to better understand the other person and most importantly, better understand YOURSELF?

A rupture in a relationship can be a golden opportunity to build an even stronger, more resilient bond with them and yourself. 

In this episode, I'm joined by my dear friend and licensed marriage and family therapist, Tina Hartney. Together we explore the topic of relationship repair and how to build stronger connections through effective conflict resolution.

In our conversation, you'll learn:

• How connecting with your body’s reaction during a conflict can increase your emotional intelligence and help you learn to communicate your feelings more effectively.
• Why "blame, shame, and defensiveness" are the DEATH of healthy communication and of the repair process.
• What does it mean to make a "U-turn” and how can you use it as a self-reflection tool that can shift how you approach conflicts? 
• The power of using "I" statements, active listening, and validation in resolving conflicts and promoting understanding between partners.
• Why some people might struggle with an “apology” and the difference between a head and heart apology.
• 4 strategies for improving your communication skills during a conflict to foster healthier connections with your loved ones.

Join us and find out how we can turn your relationship conflicts into opportunities for growth and deeper connections.

Female relationships are the lifeline for most women, yet sometimes they can be hard to cultivate. Between raising kids, working, and caring for family members it can leave little time for our female friends.

When we are raising our kids, it can be easier to develop friendships, but as we age it can be more difficult to find like-minded women. 

Yet, imagine having a circle of women who are more than just friends, they're your cheering squad, your rock. They lift you up, understand the real you, and are there through thick and thin. 

That’s the beauty of true friendships among women.

In today’s heartwarming episode, I’ll explore the power of female friendships. I share my story of feeling like an outsider to building a tribe of incredible women who've become my lifeline. I'll talk about why female relationships are crucial to our health. In fact, one study showed that having strong social relationships decreases your chances of dying prematurely by 50%, which is a reason in it’s self to start working on your female tribe!

In this episode I’ll share:

• How my main tribe of friends was formed. 
• The essential role female friendships. (Hint: we need them for our emotional support and personal growth.)
• Simple steps to find and nurture your own circle of friends.
• How being more vulnerable led to some of my closest relationships. 
• Real conversations with some of my closest friends on what makes our connection so special.
• Actionable advice on how to put yourself out there and attract you tribe with intention.
• The importance of self-reflection in building and maintaining strong friendships.
• 5 ways to cultivate, create, and maintain strong, meaningful connections with other women.

This episode is for anyone who's ever felt a bit lost in the crowd or is yearning for deeper connections.

Tune in and discover how to build the supportive, joy-filled friendships you deserve. 

Much Love,

Laurie

Have you ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?” Maybe you woke up one morning and realized how unhappy you were, even though from the outside everything looks perfect.

If so, this episode is for you!!

Most of us don’t get to midlife without going through several transitions. Sometimes you make them consciously and other times they are made for you. Many things can lead to this and it's easy to forget about what’s important to you only to one day realize how unhappy you are and don't understand how you got there.

So how do you move forward when you are ready to make a change or don't know where to start?

Today I'm joined by Kathy Batista, a certified coach, Thought Coach, and trained in Quantum Time Technique. She's the go-to coach for midlife women. Together we will shed light on how to navigate these pivotal times. We discuss the beauty and complexity of midlife, offering you valuable insights and strategies to thrive during this window of time.

In this enlightened conversation, you'll discover:

• How numbing herself with excessive shopping and drinking led Kathy to make a midlife transition for the BEST!
• The importance of addressing the physical, emotional, and spiritual challenges that come with midlife.
• How to harness your values and strengths to help navigate midlife changes positively. (There are links to freebies below.)
• What mindfulness is and how it can forge a deeper connection with your inner self so you can find more freedom.
• Kathy's 3 Pillars of Growth and how they interact to support your journey through midlife and so much more...

Whether you're feeling uncertain about the future, seeking deeper meaning in life, or simply curious about what the midlife years can offer, join us for an empowering conversation designed to help you create a joyful, purpose-driven second half of life.

Much Love,

Laurie

Divorce is the second most stressful life event one can experience. It can also be emotionally draining and legally complex.

I know, because I went through a divorce five years ago. It was layered with caring for my aging parents and preparing my youngest, twin girls to go to college. I landed in the hospital for three days after the courts formally approved my divorce. Two weeks later, I was back in the hospital for another 4 days. It took me six months to recover and it's a path I don't recommend.

That’s why I put together the top advice I wished I’d known before, during, and after divorce in the hopes that you don’t struggle or land in the hospital like I did! 

In today’s empowering solo episode, I share my personal experiences through the scariest yet most liberating decision of my life. I include the top insights and wisdom I learned before, during, and after my divorce process. 

In this episode, you'll learn:

• The top 5 things I wished I would have known before I decided to divorce. 
• Why it’s important to allow yourself to grieve the loss of your divorce and embrace the healing process.
• The importance of understanding your legal rights.
• The value of a divorce support group.
• The transformative power of therapy—especially somatic therapy or somatic healing.  
• Why you can use divorce as an opportunity to intentionally build a new life for yourself instead of shrinking away.

Join me so you can learn how to face the complexities of divorce with more clarity and confidence when everything feels out of control. Doing so will allow you to start your next chapter sooner and begin living an intentional life with more freedom and joy!

Much love,

Laurie

We are often our own worst critic, especially when it comes to dating. Our negative self talk and how we care for ourselves during the process can sabotage our efforts and outcomes.

That’s why I’m ending my dating series with an episode on self-love. 

Whether you are dating or not, it’s important to notice when you tell yourself you’re not good enough or when you aren’t taking care of your own needs and emotions. 

In today's episode, I cover the importance of self-love, self-worth, and recognizing one's dating worth while dating in midlife. I'll share a story from my own life that might sound all too familiar – those dates that leave you feeling less than.

In this episode you'll learn:

• The definition of self-love and why it's essential while dating and in general.
• Why letting go of perfection is freeing and will set you up for more success.
• Learning what self-love really looks like and how it can change your dating experience.  
• Practical tips to boost your self-worth.
• What dating worth is and how it can transform the way you view potential partners
• How setting healthy boundaries helped me become stronger when I was dating and will help you too!
• Simple somatic exercises that can help you feel more connected to yourself and calm your nervous system before, during, and after a date. 

So grab those ear buds and press play so you can give yourself what you need whether you are dating or not. Because YOU are the most important person and YOU deserve more self-love!  

Remember, your value doesn't decrease based on someone's inability to see your worth, there’s does. 

Love, 

Laurie
