The Power of Gratitude and Meditation

Gratitude and meditation are two practices that have made a huge difference in my own life. I would even go so far as to say they’ve been life-changing.  Today’s guest Lori Saitz is the CEO of Zen Rabbit and host of the podcast “FINE is a 4-Letter Word.” She shares with us her journey to understanding the power of meditation and gratitude and why she now teaches others to do the same. In this episode, we chat about how we allow busy thoughts to clutter our minds and keep us from acknowledging important truths that need to be addressed.  Lori agrees with me that you can only run from your truth for so long before life will find a way to make you listen. Will it take a whisper or will it take a brick upside the head?

Through her first business, Lori introduced the world to The Gratitude Cookie and built what looked like a million-dollar business.

Sexuality: The Final Frontier of Self-Discovery and Self-Knowledge

In this episode, we explore the definition of sexuality and our relationship with it with Dr. Juliana Hauser, a licensed marriage and family therapist and expert in the field of sexual health.
I will be honest; going into this interview I had a very different perspective on what it meant to explore your sexuality meant and was very curious to find out how Dr. Juliana’s work impacted midlife women’s lives.
By the end of our conversation, I understood how our sexuality is linked to discovering and understanding the core of who we are and how we relate to the world and each other.  It was a fascinating and eye-opening conversation. 
Tune in to understand the importance of your sexual story and how it can help you to harness the power of your sexual agency and create deeper fulfillment and authenticity in your life.

Changing Your Energetic Relationship With Money

Today we're talking about money and more specifically your relationship with it with finance expert Connie Vanderzanden.   We all relate to our money through some level of past conditioning and programming that can impact how our money works or doesn’t work for us. Becoming aware of our perceptions of money can help us create the financial outcome we want. We also talk about how our conditioning as women can also hold us back from financial success. I come clean on my own past relationship with money which I likened to a booty call. Yep, you read that right!!!  We also talk about the impatience of your money relationship if you are a female business owner. Connie shares the story of how she was unconsciously letting her husband play a role in how much her business earned.

How Resilience and Belief Turned Tragedy Into Triumph

This week we turn the podcast spotlight to an incredible story of resilience and triumph with disabled army veteran, entrepreneur, and philanthropist Major Jas Boothe.  Having survived a military career-ending illness, depression, and homelessness all while navigating single motherhood Jas dug deep to find a way to turn each tragedy into triumph. Instead of allowing her life experience to get her down, instead, she asked - "What's next?" and started her own non-profit, ‘Final Salute Inc’ which raised over $4 Million to provide homeless veterans with housing. That resilience now has her positioned as an entrepreneur with a skincare line focused on helping women focus on self-care.
 
Tune in to hear this amazingly inspiring story of tragedy that led to a spiritual journey of self-love and belief.

The Power of Trust: Create the Life You Want

This week on the podcast we get into the “woo" in a conversation with my personal spiritual mentor Kisma Orbovich. We talk about trusting the power source within us to create the life we dream about. We all have the power to change our experience and create the life we want but we haven’t been taught how to tap into it.  We talk about the spiritual power of decisions and taking action which have both been game-changers in my own life. 
 
Midlife can often be a very spiritual journey for some of us, but even if you’re not into the “woo",  I think you will find this a really interesting episode with lots of practical advice for your life.

Menopause: The Awakening

In this conversation, Alexandra Pope and Sjanje Hugo Wurlitzer of Red School talk about a different perspective of menopause as not a physical betrayal but rather an awakening to new and different dimensions of you.
Our bodies hold so much wisdom and through our menstrual cycle and menopause, we can tap into our innate wisdom to create sustainably vibrant health, unlock our true potential, and reclaim our natural powers as a woman.
This is an enlightening episode that is sure to leave you thinking very differently about the natural cycles of your body.
