The start of a new year isn’t just about resolutions. It’s about acceleration. In 2026, the heaviness of the last few years begins to lift. The exhaustion, the repeating patterns, and the familiar question of why we keep ending up in the same place are finally giving way to movement and possibility. Astrologically and energetically, we are entering a rare window that supports forward momentum, emotional openness, and new beginnings.

In this episode of Shot@Love, Kerry Brett is joined by astrologer and psychic healer Jill Jardine for a deep look at what the planetary shifts of 2026 mean for love, connection, creativity, and personal growth. Jill explains why this year marks the official transition into Aquarian age energy and how the collective move from heavy earth and water influences into lighter air and fire elements creates space for inspiration, innovation, and emotional renewal.

Together, Kerry and Jill explore why 2026 is a year of acceleration rather than hesitation. The Year of the Horse arrives with momentum, encouraging people to stop dragging the past into the future and instead align with what is meant for them now. This episode breaks down why January sets the tone for the entire year, why intention-setting early matters more than ever, and how grounding practices help navigate a faster, more dynamic energetic landscape.

Jill offers a detailed snapshot of the first quarter of 2026, including the powerful Aquarius activations in January, the intensity of eclipse season and retrogrades in February, and the integration and forward motion that begins to take shape in March. She explains how these shifts may impact relationships, dating, creativity, and emotional readiness, while also offering guidance on how to stay centered during periods of rapid change.

This conversation is especially meaningful for anyone who has felt stuck, cautious, or emotionally weighed down in recent years. It offers clarity on how to work with the energy of 2026 rather than resist it, and why love becomes more accessible when timing and readiness finally align. As Kerry and Jill discuss, love is not about perfect circumstances. It is about being prepared when opportunity meets intention.

Listeners will walk away with a clearer understanding of why 2026 represents a collective reset, how to approach love and connection with optimism instead of fear, and what it means to move forward without carrying old emotional baggage. This episode is an invitation to trust the momentum, stay grounded, and allow the year ahead to unfold with purpose.

Some love stories don’t end with heartbreak — they end with unanswered questions.

Ana Walshe was 39. A devoted mother of three. Brilliant, driven, and building a life between Boston and Washington, D.C. But behind closed doors, her marriage concealed a chilling imbalance of power, control, and deception.

In this powerful and deeply personal episode of Shot At Love, Kerry Brett sits down with her daughter, Morgan Hurley — an interim court reporter who has been inside the courtroom covering the Brian and Ana Walshe murder trial. Together, they unpack what really happened, what the jury is hearing, and the warning signs that were tragically missed.

This episode is not about gossip.
It’s about truth.
It’s about red flags.
And it’s about the dangerous cost of ignoring them.

Inside This Episode:

The early warning signs that surfaced years before Ana disappeared
Brian Walshe’s long history of fraud, manipulation, and financial deception
The rise of Ana’s independence and why it became dangerous
The affair, the unraveling marriage, and December 2022’s final days
The disappearance and the disturbing timeline that followed
The chilling Google searches prosecutors call the biggest smoking gun
Surveillance footage, erratic alibis, and evidence from dumpsters across multiple towns
The eerie voicemail left for Ana’s boyfriend
The financial motive, including a $2.7 million life insurance policy
The courtroom dynamics and the challenge of proving murder without a body

Morgan also shares what it’s like to report on a case that happened in their own backyard and why this story deserves far more attention than it has received.

The Shot At Love Perspective

Ana was rising.
Her career was thriving.
Her independence was growing.

And for a narcissistic partner who depended on her financially, that became the greatest threat.

When your success threatens someone, they were never your partner — they were your prison.

Your Last First Date: Author & Hollywood Matchmaker Jaydi Samuels Kuba

This week’s episode of Shot At Love pulls back the curtain on Hollywood’s most fascinating matchmaking secrets with Jaydi Samuels Kuba. Inspired by her soon-to-be-released book Your Last First Date, Jaydi shares the patterns, mindsets, blind spots, and tiny shifts that help singles finally find their own Hollywood ending.

Jaydi began her career as a television writer with credits ranging from Family Guy to Salem. But after watching talented, successful women in the entertainment industry struggle to form meaningful relationships, she built a couples-curation service that grew into LJ Matchmaking. Today she is a certified dating and relationship coach, a co-host of the podcast Match Made in Hollywood, and one of the industry’s most respected matchmakers.

Kerry and Jaydi explore the truth behind finding love in Hollywood or anywhere else: why people stay stuck, how they repeat emotional patterns, and what finally creates lasting change. Jaydi opens up about the early days of her company, the unlikely way she met her husband while setting him up with other women, and the inner shifts that helped her leave a long-term relationship that no longer aligned with her life.

Together, they break down why matchmaking matters, why being “findable” is non-negotiable, and how small mindset adjustments can make all the difference. Jaydi shares how she vets clients, screens for compatibility, and guides people toward clarity before chemistry. She explains why great daters still end up in the wrong relationships, how date coaching transforms confidence, and why trusting your own intuition is ultimately your most powerful tool.

Jaydi also gives listeners a behind-the-scenes look at writing Your Last First Date: how her Hollywood storytelling background shaped the narrative, why she chose to teach through character journeys and real client case studies, and what she hopes readers will take away after they close the final page.

If you’ve ever wondered how matchmaking really works, what goes on behind the scenes, or how to stop repeating the same dating patterns, this conversation will shift the way you see yourself, your choices, and your path to love.
