Are you holding something back? Are you staying quiet when there's a part of you aching to speak up? I hope this lesson I recently received about self-expression encourages you to open up, use your voice and find your peace.
Exactly one year ago today I recorded a podcast episode from the beach in Playa del Carmen, Mexico and shared that I was determined to relocate to the country and start my next chapter there. Well, one year later -- here's how I made that happen, and the lessons I've learned along the way!
You'll also notice that I've updated the name of the podcast from Support is Sexy to The Elayne Fluker Show. If you've been a long-time listener since I launched the podcast in 2016: (1) I appreciate you so much and (2) You can expect more of the same great conversations as well as my own life lessons on the show. I believe the name change allows us to be more expansive with the conversations and for me to present leaders, innovators and motivators who will support YOU no matter where you are in personal or professional journey. I hope you'll continue to take this ride with me!
Onward!
I'm here, on the beach in Mexico, taking the first step toward my dream of living in this beautiful country full-time. I'm exploring the possibilities -- and I'm encouraging you to do the same. Where are you standing still in your life when you know deep down it's time to make a move. Where are you settling when you could be soaring? Now is the time to dream of the possibilities, and put a plan in place. Let's do this!

"Who's going to take care of me when I'm old?"
As someone who is childfree (and who is also primary caregiver for my elderly parents), I have often asked myself this question. In fact, the question gave me lots of anxiety. That is until I came across a recent article featuring Childfree Wealth Specialist Jay Zigmont.
Jay Zigmont is an Advice-Only, Fee-Only, Fiduciary, CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™. He holds a PhD is in Adult Learning from the University of Mississippi and he has been featured in Wall Street Journal, Market Watch, Business Insider and more.
Jay provides life and financial planning advice to childfree individuals. As one of only few men to appear as a solo guest on Support is Sexy podcast, I asked him to join me for a LIVE CHAT to talk about being childfree, financial independence and what his top financial tips are that we should keep in mind for peace of mind. Here's a replay of our great conversation!
