Living Deeply with Markieta Carter episodes
- Southern Roots, Humanist Heart: A Woman's Journey
Listen in as Markieta shares what its like being a humanist woman in the South.
7 min - When Light Hurts Love: Navigating Light Sensitivity in Relationships
Coach MJ explores how light sensitivity (photophobia) affects highly sensitive people and the relationships they’re in, explaining the physical and emotional ways bright or flickering light can trigger overwhelm.
She describes common conflicts—overhead switches, bright restaurants, screens at night—and how these sensory differences can be misunderstood as moodiness or distance.
The episode offers practical, low-effort solutions (warmer bulbs, lamps, dimmers, screen adjustments) and encourages simple accommodations and compassionate communication to build safety and connection.

About Living Deeply with Markieta Carter
From the publisher's feed
The Living Deeply Podcast with Markieta Carter is about what it means to live authentically, feel deeply, and choose yourself in a world that often encourages us to shrink, conform, forgive before we’re ready, or prioritize everyone else’s comfort.
Through personal stories, honest reflections, and real-life lessons, Markieta explores relationships, boundaries, grief, healing, emotional sensitivity, LGBTQ+ life, humanism, family, self-love, identity, personal growth, and the complicated experiences that shape who we become. This isn’t a podcast about pretending life is perfect. It’s about having the deeper conversations—the ones about walking away, trusting your intuition, protecting your peace, navigating loss, redefining relationships, challenging beliefs, setting boundaries, and creating a life that actually feels like your own.
Some episodes are reflective. Some are educational. Some are deeply personal. All of them are rooted in one idea: you deserve the freedom to live your life deeply and authentically.
