I am so excited to host the goddess herself Jayne Gottlieb. She is Aspen Shakti's owner
and founder and the creator of Shakti Method. She and I are talking about SHAKTI
ENERGY: what it means, the fact that you have it and how you can harness it, live it,
love it, and let it guide you home to your inner goddess so that you can walk in the
physical world with that gorgeous, potent, powerful, feminine, female presence.
In this episode...
● Shakti energy
● Anxiety & Fear
● Courage
● Next right step
● The illusion of self
● Sharing your gift
● Rebalancing
Quotes
“I've come to define shakti as the divine creative energy of the universe. Shakti is alive,
luminous and desirable. It’s that inner magnetism, that inner sparkle, that inner thing
that we can't quite touch, but we can see it and smell it and hear it in the way that
people speak.” - Jayne Gottlieb
“I think a lot of us long to feel at home within any space. Not from an egotistical
standpoint where we want other people to notice it in us, but for us to realize it within
ourselves.” - Nikki Spo
“Shakti is walking the talk of what is the truth of your soul.” - Jayne Gottlieb

This week I am spearheading a LOADED conversation with Lauren LaRusso About ROMANTIC AFFAIRS 😐
We are here to talk about all the things that no one wants to talk about… and we are going to answer the questions that have probably crossed your mind when it comes to ROMANTIC AFFAIRS.
Lauren is a psychotherapist specializing in marital affairs. She has helped countless individuals and couples process the unexpected and inalterable impact of infidelity on their lives. Let’s jump right in!

“As betrayed spouses, we become complicit sometimes because we adjust our expectations based on the slow creep of changes in our partner.” - Lauren LaRusso
“As humans, we always want what we can’t have.” - Lauren LaRusso
“You have to be hyper vigilant for yourself. You need to be connected and in tune to yourself enough to be looking outside and sending the signals of unavailability of loyalty to your primary relationship.” - Lauren LaRusso
“I would recommend handling your shit as soon as you possibly can.” - Lauren LaRusso
“I think that the affair itself removes the power of choice for the person who doesn’t know about it.” - Nikki Spo

Jamie Lee Ruiz is BACK, baby, and this time we are talking about… AGE DIFFERENCES IN RELATIONSHIPS LFG 👀
In this episode…
Quotes
“Women have to get a lot more comfortable in their own skin to understand what they want, what they like, and what they expect.” - Nikki Spo
“Men don’t know what they don’t know. They don’t know what you like or what you want if you don’t say it.” - Jamie Lee Ruiz
“I had to grow up very quickly and because of that I’ve learned that children should never be placed in adult roles. Parents sometimes emotionally dump on their children when it's not a child's responsibility to hold the emotional or physical capacity or weight of an adult.” - Nikki Spo
“There are men that have healing to do and either don’t know that they have to do it, or don’t want to do it and so it’s easier to get a young woman who is easily manipulated or molded that isn’t going to challenge them to grow.” - Jamie Lee Ruiz

What is up my friends and welcome back to The Know! Today we have Marni Battista who is the founder of Dating with Dignity and the Institute for Living Courageously. Marni is one of those women who is walking the talk, she's just doin it all! We have so much to cover today but some of the heavy hitting topics you can expect from this episode is dating after divorce in today's complex social environment, were talking about why women date unavailable men, and how we can move away from suffering through unfulfilling relationships and into relationships that are fulfilling, love centered, want based, happy, and safe. With that, let's get started!
I also have some exciting news to share…I know first hand the power of community and shared experience and I am so honored to announce that I have created an online women's community where we talk about all of life's topics. In my group Becoming HER, we are striving to become the best versions of ourselves and realize that SHE is ME and that we can become the her of our highest desires. I have a special promotion for my podcast audience and I want to welcome you all to becoming her where we will do great things together!
In this episode…
Quotes
“Dating with dignity is waking up the next day feeling great about yourself. It's about not taking rejection personally, it's about having an abundant life, it's about setting boundaries and acting on the behalf of your highest self and knowing your value.” - Marni Battista
“In this new dating scene post divorce I have had to rediscover who I am as a single woman and what I want in a new relationship moving forward.” - Nikki Spo
“If you have dignity, self worth, and self respect and you have the actual tools to communicate appropriately, dating is actually kind of fun.” - Marni Battista
“At this point in my life, men now are competing with my peace. I love myself so much and so if somebody else loves me, that's just icing on the cake” - Nikki Spo
“You’re creating your soul's journey for a reason, wake up and listen. - Marni Battista
“People tend to rule out before they rule in and my invitation is to rule in before you rule out. Let a guy rule himself out.” - Marni Battista
