In this episode, I discuss how fear can prevent us from taking action, whether it's starting a new relationship, pursuing a career change, or just trying something new. I will also introduce the concept of the "risk manager," that inner voice that tries to protect us but often keeps us stuck.

Whether you're trying to move forward in love, work, or personal growth, this episode will help you quiet that inner critic and take meaningful steps toward your goals.

In this episode, I chat with Dr. Carolyn Lovewell, the author of Existential Kink, about the power of shadow work. We talked about how it feels to get stuck in repetitive relationship patterns, which sets the stage for Carolyn's insights on integrating our unconscious desires and painful experiences.

She explains how acknowledging our shadow selves can lead to personal growth and healing. Carolyn also shares her journey of transforming pain into opportunities for growth by reframing challenging experiences. I encourage you to explore your shadows, embrace your full range of emotions, and find empowerment through acceptance.

In this episode of Midlife Love Out Loud, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Marla Mervis-Hartman, a body image expert and specialist in emotional eating and self-acceptance. Together, we explored some of the biggest challenges women face in midlife regarding loving and accepting their bodies. We talked about what emotional eating really is — it’s not just about overeating; it also includes controlling food as a way to cope with emotions.

We also touched on the societal pressures we all feel around body image, the importance of finding support, and practical steps for improving our relationship with food and our bodies. Marla shared some great advice on self-care and even gave a sneak peek into her upcoming book. I’m so excited for you to listen to this conversation because it’s packed with real, actionable takeaways that can help you embrace your body and find peace in your relationship with food.

In this Midlife Love Out Loud podcast episode, I delve into knowing when to take a break from dating. I outline signs of burnout, such as feeling overwhelmed or viewing dating as a chore. I caution against "outcome obsession" and having a scarcity mindset, advocating for a pause to recharge and regain focus. I emphasize the significance of enjoying the journey, embracing solitude, and finding happiness independently. My advice revolves around prioritizing self-discovery and personal growth before reentering the dating scene.
