The After 30 Podcast

We're one year into the global pandemic and the waves and troughs of fatigue are familiar AF. We’re in a race to normalcy and in the Northern Hemisphere anyway, we’re in the dead of winter with even less ability to pull in the things that give us joy and self-care. In this ep we have a heart-to-heart on all the feels we've been experiencing over the past year, we recap our roses, Anis pulls from her psychotherapy expertise and explains why what we're feeling rn is trauma, and we indulge ourselves on what we can't wait for post-pandemic. 

Also, we created some cute cards inspired by what we'd love to receive and send you all right now! Check 'em out here!

We hope you love it.

Business owners, entrepreneurs, freelancers - listen up!!! This episode is for you. We chat with Darielle Teitelbaum, a corporate lawyer and the founder of AWE Legal and AWE contracts to find out everything we need to be thinking about for our legal needs. It becomes so clear through our conversation with Darielle, that so many of us are not properly set-up with the right policies to cover our liabilities but ALSO to protect our time, our rights, and even our financial opportunities. This episode gives you the vocabulary to be able to have the right conversations with your clients, and a clear roadmap for the contracts you should have in your back pocket. We talk about what the pandemic exposed for many business in their cancellations/refund policies & what you need to include now (*note why the pandemic is not considered force majeure). We dive into IP and the many complications and existing rights surrounding IP, privacy policies including with kids online classes, and what side hustlers should be thinking about too. Also we talk about the tomato feta drama, obviously.  

One of the best things about this conversation is that it's accessible. Darielle created AWE contracts during COVID specifically to service small businesses that are often underserved by the cost-prohibitive and lengthy process of individually drafted contracts. They've taken all the guess-work out by offering all of the relevant contracts required to operate your business, and they include the essential contracts you need or may need in the future as you grow, tailored to your industry.  

Srsly this is the way to go if you’re an entrepreneur and want to be sure you’ve got all the bases covered from the start, we're so excited to connect you to them. Get your Contract Kit here. (https://www.awecontracts.com/?aff=AFTER30)

Just in time for Love Day, we're getting intimate with sexuality educator, intimacy consultant, and HIV activist Goody Howard. We chat about normalizing pleasure, how to create more sensuality in your everyday life (which therefore leads to far more pleasure in sex), and what to do if you're just not feelin' it. Goody also keeps us cool on what's happening in sex toys, how to create new erogenous zones, and she explains how many types of orgasms there are (guaranteed there's more than you think). Explicit warning in effect, you might blush, but you're also welcome. 

Happy Valentines Day!

We chat with Sarah Schwab, founder and president of Content Creation Coach, author of the bestselling book “Content That Dances”, and host of the podcast 'Inspired and Amused' about what creativity looks like as we get older. How it's so common for life to take over as adults, leaving your connection to creativity and hobbies be a thing of your childhood past that we no longer dedicate time for. We chat about how to get into the creative flow, the importance of business and leadership allowing for additional time and space for creative exploration, and how to reconnect or get inspired to things that light you up. 

Enjoy!

Inspired by one of our favourite reads Range, Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialised World by David Epstein we debate the + & -'s of being a generalist versus an expert in your career, particularly as we advance and gain additional experience, knowledge, and connection to ourselves. Which path are you taking? Is one better than the other? We seem to make the case for the generalist, but we admit some of that comes from a deep jealousy of epidemiologists. 

At the end of the day, don't feel behind. 

We hope you love it.

Facilitated by the release of their new book, Get Your Shit Together: The Rebel Mama’s Handbook For Financially Empowered Moms, we pulled out the otherwise snooze worthy or often mansplained topics of finance that they cover in the book in a refreshing and approachable way. We cover things like wills, insurance, understanding marketing algorithms, and ultimately, how to get in the driver's seat of your financial future.

In our first episode for 2021 we're kicking off with a 3 part money series because we want you to be rich, and to not feel bad about your holiday money hangover. There's also A LOT to talk about with money right now, our spending did who knows what in 2020, the gender pay gap widened even more, meanwhile we're adults and still have to figure out how to manage that house/car/keep our business alive/pay for kids and actually make sure we save and invest. So we're talking about money from three angles over the next week and a half. 

Today we're joined by Stephanie Wolfe who’s the founder of Wolfe Collective Wealth, Inc. a financial coaching company that helps ambitious women bring their financial goals to life. In this episode we focus on how to get financially naked with your significant other. How to talk about money if you're newly dating or married, what you do if it's getting tense, and how to get more comfortable having the money chats in social settings . Included are some helpful tips on how to practice mindful spending and what percentage of your net income should go where. 

Tune in on Monday for Part 2 - Alternative Investments with Joseph Barron.
