If you are going,  or have gone through, a divorce, this episode is for you.  It is time to loose the shame you may have and realize that a divorce can be your new beginning.  Divorce is not something that we need to feel bad about or believe that we have failed.  A divorce may just be the path you needed to travel, in order to get to the life you want.  We discuss how to be open and honest with your children, and why being honest is not teaching them that you don't believe in the value of marriage.  We, of course, talk about dating again, and how and why you need to be real about why you are dating, and what you want from your dating experience.  We also discuss why you don't have to box with your ex, just because he invites you in to the ring.  That was a lightbulb moment for me!

Episode 87, and you will love listening to this fun talk with Lauren Hubert MS, RD, who is the Registered Dietitian and Weight Loss Expert behind The Sorority Nutritionist. After gaining nearly 20 pounds as a freshman at Florida State University, Lauren was left struggling with her self-confidence and insecure about the way she looked. Determined to lose the weight, Lauren began her weight loss journey sparking an intense interest in food and exercise. Like many young women, to shed the weight she began running for hours every day and cutting out calories from her diet, leading her to being super restrictive with her food choices and scared to go out to drink with her sorority sisters. It wasn’t until she began studying nutrition and changed her degree to Dietetics that she totally realized the self destructive dieting path she was going down. Lauren and I talk about why there is a stigma today about wanting to look hot, lose weight, look good.  Like there is anything wrong with that?  Listen while we break down some of these barriers and have real talk about how it is OK to want it all, a career, a family, and still look, um, HOT!  You can find Lauren at www.thesororitynutritionist.com or on Instagram @sorority.nutrionist You got this.

Episode 85, I am interviewing Erin King, who is a best-selling author, 3x entrepreneur and the CEO of the Socialite Agency.  She is the author of “Digital Persuasion” and “You’re Kind of a Big Deal” which both draw from her personal and professional experiences having founded three companies before the age of 40. On today's episode we explore her story of resilience and how a set back can come right before your comeback, or a few set backs, as may be the case for Erin and many of us.  This is a timely episode as we as women navigate our professional relationships and learn to make bridges to a more personal relationship, at work. This can be even more difficult when the dynamic may be a male / female relationship.  We talk about how we can be persuasive and find our superpower.  We, as women, are often second guessing our relationships in, and out of, work.  This is our time to level up and be ok with saying, I'm Kind of a Big Deal!  You got this.  Be Brave!
