How curious are you?

Are you as curious as you used to be in your 20s when you were having new experiences more often?

Or have you become complacent with curiosity or too busy to cultivate it?

It recently struck me how important curiosity is to me. My husband, Vic, is the most curious person I know, and my friends are often original thinkers who enjoy questioning conventional wisdom, which I love.

Stoking curiosity also makes life more juicy and satisfying, which is why this episode is all about the different ways in which we can curate more of it.

I am SO excited to welcome bestselling author and counseling psychologist, Gay Hendricks, to the show to talk about themes from two of his books, The Big Leap and Conscious Loving.

Gay has been a huge inspiration for me personally and professionally, and he makes psychological concepts easy to understand.

We talk about upper limit problems (self-sabotage) first, and then move into how to create epic relationships. Throughout the conversation, Gay shares invaluable wisdom from his own life. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

Do you get offended if a date doesn't immediately get back to you?

How about when you ask a friend to call you later and they don't?

When you pass a stranger on the street and they glance at you, looking annoyed, do you assume their annoyance is directed at you?

Or do you cut others slack in these situations, rather than take it personally?

In this episode, I'm sharing what the research says are the four dimensions of the tendency for interpersonal victimhood, breaking down the difference between having a victim mentality and being a victim, and giving you ideas on how you can shift from a victim mindset into a growth mindset.

I am so excited to have my pal, award-winning journalist and menopause advocate, Tamsen Fadal, back on the show to celebrate her new book How To Menopause, which I had the honor of contributing to!

It has been amazing to watch Tamsen step into being a midlife mentor. She is truly leading the menopause movement we desperately need and I am here for it. I don't know about you, but it wasn't fun going through perimenopause and menopause with next to zero knowledge and no one publicly talking about it.

Tamsen shares how watching her mother go through menopause inspired her to cultivate a strong, shame-free community where women can talk about their menopause journeys. We're all going to go through it. Why not empower ourselves and the next generations with more knowledge? I think that's exactly what How to Menopause will do. ❤️

I am so excited to have Breeshia Wade, author of Grieving While Black: An Antiracist Take on Oppression and Sorrow, on the show to talk about fear of future loss and Elemental Grief™. She explains some ideas from the book: The way that fear of future loss has shaped society, and the responsibility that majority groups have to attend to their own feelings of fear so that they do not project those feelings onto members of oppressed minorities. Breeshia also shares her experience attending Stanford University as a Black student, and we chat about fear of future loss in our marriages.

Does it often feel like life is a grind of checking off endless to-do lists, where you barely have a moment for yourself?

The emphasis on hustle culture in society has conditioned many of us to believe that rest and reward must be earned through hard work.

It's no wonder "little treat culture," a trend on social media that encourages us to use small rewards to stay motivated, is exploding in popularity.

As a little treat gal for many years, I want to talk about the power of motivating yourself by using little treats throughout your day, the psychology behind why they work, and how treats can make life a little sweeter.

Have you ever lost someone close to you?

Or do you worry about the people you love dying?

Death and dying have been on my mind a lot because I recently lost a close friend of mine. Knowing that she was going to die brought up a desire to explore and talk about death and dying.

Whether you're actively dealing with this or anticipating it, I hope sharing my experience and what I've learned will help you feel more prepared.
