In this episode, I sit down with Emotional Reactivity Strategist and Divorce Composure Coach, Jeanine Tripodi, to talk about one of the most emotional and destabilizing experiences a woman can walk through — divorce.

During this episode, Nicole and Jeanine discuss:
Why high-stress seasons — especially divorce — can activate emotional reactivity and nervous system overwhelm
How composure impacts court, mediation, and difficult conversations when credibility and clarity really matter
What’s actually happening internally when women “lose it” under pressure — even when they’re self-aware
How subconscious patterning and past relationships shape our reactions
Practical tools to stay steady, grounded, and self-led through divorce
The value of support and coaching during divorce — and how regulation protects your well-being and your future

Jeanine helps women regulate their nervous systems in the moment during mediation, court, and hard conversations — so they can stay composed, clear, grounded, and credible when it matters most.

We talk about why emotionally intelligent women still lose composure under pressure, how our subconscious programming shows up in high-stakes moments, and how learning to regulate internally can completely change the direction — and emotional toll — of the divorce process.

I also share my own reflections on how powerful this kind of support can be for women — because so many of the divorces I see drag on for years and take such a deep emotional toll. Jeanine’s work brings steadiness, self-respect, and clarity back into the process — and I have so much admiration for the way she serves women during such a vulnerable chapter.

If you’re navigating divorce, or supporting someone who is — this conversation offers both compassion and grounded tools to help you stay centered in yourself.

Life, love & healing - shared honestly Growing, learning, rebuilding out loud.

In this episode, I sit down with Marriage & Relationship Coach, Lisa Kneller, to talk about what it really takes to create — and sustain — a loving, connected marriage in midlife and beyond.

Lisa shares how doing the inner work of self-love and awareness becomes the foundation for emotional intimacy, meaningful communication, and long-term partnership. We explore acceptance, releasing unrealistic expectations, leading with compassion, and bringing lightness and play back into your relationship.

We also reflect on the beautiful — and sometimes vulnerable — journey of rebuilding your relationship with yourself first, and how that inner healing can ripple into every connection in your life.

If you’re longing for a marriage that feels more grounded, soulful, and emotionally safe — this conversation will speak to your heart.

How midlife marriages can lose intimacy — and the real inner-work that helps rebuild emotional connection

• Why acceptance (of ourselves and our partners) is essential to reducing criticism, judgment, and resentment in long-term relationships
• The role of communication, compassion, and conscious leadership in creating a marriage that feels safe, loving, and alive
• Playfulness, curiosity, and intentional energy — and how couples can keep things light, fun, and “spicy” over time
• Why doing your own healing work first can transform the way you show up in partnership
• The importance of protecting, nourishing, and honoring marriage when both people are willing to grow and be healthy together

During this episode, Nicole and Sybil discuss:

1. Overcoming the Fear of Being Seen — why so many women entrepreneurs avoid capturing content, even when they deeply want to grow.
2. Content Ready for Everyone — how her sessions create a non-intimidating environment for women to record footage that reflects who they are, not pressure.
3. The Confidence Spark That Happens in Community — how supportive, like-minded women elevate the experience, making business and content creation more fun and more impactful.
4. From Content Capture to Clarity — the exact system she uses: film in the morning, and confidently build strategy around it in the afternoon.
5. The Added Value of Showing Up Together — the built-in social media momentum, collaboration, support, and connections that follow the process.

Episode Listener Preview

• How entrepreneurs can show up even when they’re camera shy

• Why capturing footage is the missing link for many female business owners

Guest Bio

Sybil Imel is a confidence coach who specializes in helping female business owners show up with intention online. Through her one-day, momentum-driven Content Ready Sessions, Sybil creates space for entrepreneurs to capture genuine, confidence-fueled footage — even when they’re camera shy or unsure where to start.

Her belief is that content creation doesn’t have to feel forced or perfect — it just needs to feel authentic, strategic, and empowering.

Sybil also speaks passionately about community-based content creation — how collaborating, filming, and posting together feels like being part of a supportive girl group. Her clients leave not only with powerful footage, but new friendships, connections, social media support, and renewed excitement about finally stepping into their visibility.
