Welcome to premiere edition of Morning Sip.

I was in the back seat of an UBER car on my way home. Next thing I know, the uber driver and I are talking about marriage and divorce. Mainly, it's the UBER driver's experience since I've never been married. It was short and sweet. This was a 15-minute conversation packed of personal real life nuggets that I wanted to share with you while you sip and listen this morning at work, in the car, gym, or while you walk to work. This Ain't What I Signed Up For! How many of you have said this one time or another to yourself or someone else in a relationship or marriage? Hope you enjoyed this today's gulp.

Welcome to the Keep it 100 Girl Podcast. In this episode, I am revisitng relationships (SIGH). We're talking about emotionally unavailable men. Know one? They come in all shapes and sizes. Just to be clear, we're not bitter, just realistic. We've all had struggles. BIG ONES. You're not alone We're self-reflecting on lessons some of us may or may not have learned YET when it comes to choices we've made in selecting the wrong partner and coming to terms with it. Girlienation is made up of strong independent women, but these are the women that attract, and are attracted to emotionally unavailable men. You wan to know the irony of it is? Your strength and independence have not been an asset in attracting men. I am not pointing fingers. The lesson here is to stop trying to fix a broken person because you may end up cutting yourself on one of their one too many shattered pieces. What you're gonna hear:

1. Author Colin Tate pinpoint the genesis behind an emotionally unavailable man.
2. Colin and I define an emotionally unavailable man.
3. The kinds of emotionally bankrupt men.
4. The women attracted to emotionally unavailable men.
5. Two sides to every story. Meet an emotionally available man.

The inspiration for today's episodes starts in the kitchen with a lemonade recipe. Are you crazy or jealous!? Girlienation sip, guzzles, and opens up about their real life personal lemonade. stories See lemonades aren't always about cheating, but when it does, this is how we do. To understand it, you have to go through it. These are the important conversations women need to open up and have amongst each other.

In short, it's a rites a passagethat your Mother's may or may not warned you about when you wereyounger. We as women are reminded that everyone goes through it.Sometimes you don't get to pick your poisoneither.

Pay close attention to the redflags. More importantly, go with your intuition. The universe willsignal when something is off. There's a voice that doesn't usewords. You know the truth by the way it feels.

We have a real life example of a Mother who is Doing it Right with her Daughter. In my experiences so far, this is not the norm. We've all seen, heard, witnessed, or been a victim firsthand of this dysfunction that never goes away generation after generation.

This mother / daughter duo is what we should aspire to when it comes to have the frank, blunt, and continuous conversations from puberty onwards. Laura is the Mother in her 40s and Sarah her daughter is in her early 20s.

Plant the seeds. Invest in the uncomfortableness.Communication is key. It's all about the conversations and the TMI moments. Don't forget to set the expectations by sharing the emotion that comes with it these womanhood issues.

Struggling to have these conversations with your daughter. Need help with the anxiety and nervousness MOM? Want to break the cycle but don't know how? EducatingHer is a NEW Mother / Daughter retreat starting this summer, visit our website at www.educatingher.com to learn more.

The Cast of Characters

Nina Babel - Host

Male guest in his 40s

Dr. Megan Fleming, Psychologist and Expert Sex Therapist based in New York City.

About the Episode

In this episode, Nina asked girlienation to school the men and similarly asked one guy to man-up and school girlienation about the "5-Minute man". As usual, I've asked girlienation to chime in on their experiences and, similarly, I have my resident everyday "guy", who gives the male point of view.

What You're Gonna Hear

• What's a 1-Minute Man?
• Sexpectations
• The disappointment from women
• Are quickies acceptable?
• Is it grounds for dismissal?

The Urban dictionary defines a 5-Minute man as "a guy who cannot hold his load therefore not being able to please his woman". The term refers to a man who does not last long during sex or ejaculates/cums quickly.

I enlisted the help of expert sex therapist Dr. Megan Fleming, Nina explains possible scenarios when women find it is acceptable, but also when it isn't.

Dr. Fleming emphasizes the goal for couples is pleasure. Find workarounds to pleasuring each other if it's 2 minutes or less.

The Cast of Characters

Nina Babel - Host

Danny Koch - Owner of The Town Shop, New York City (NYC)

Alba Salas - Bra Fitting Expert

About the Episode

In this episode Nina explores "Caring for your Boobs with the Right Bra". Nina shares her trip to the Town Shop in NYC. The Town Shop is family owned and located on the upper west side of New York City. It was founded in 1888 and has a great history. They have over 100 years of providing the bra fitting experience.

What You're Gonna Hear

• The Role of a Bra Fitter
• The Anatomy of a Bra (Extra Oomph)
• How Long A Fitting Actually Takes
• The Biggest Complaints When It Comes to Bras
• The Care & Maintenance of a Bra

This was Nina's first experience and she found a new appreciation for bra's. She found herself confessing to Danny Koch (store owner) her inability or knack to select the right bra. Alba Salas helped Nina with her fitting. Alba was featured on the Meredith Vieira Show for expertise in bra fitting. Alba explains to Nina the anatomy of a bra. Nina learns that her bra size is actually between a C and a D, not just a C.

The Town Shop's process emphasizes that it's about the fit and finding the right size for their customers. Buying a bra is like shopping for jeans. No pair of jeans is the same exact fit. It is the same way with bras. Every bra is different.

Most of know our bra struggles and girlienation chimes in to share their personal struggles. Nina explains her embarrassing confession, which she calls "Bra and Makeup Syndrome". She has some bras (as well as makeup) she has kept for years. Nina admitted to having one bra that was bought in London15 years ago.

Nina reminds us "It's all about the experience." It's about taking care of you & your "girls." Going to a bra fitter or specialty store staffed with experts makes total sense to me now. I get it!
