Dealing with Emotional and Sexual Obstacles after Divorce Mar 22, 2012

Show notes

Getting over divorce and the emotional feelings that go along with it isn't easy. In this episode of Sex after Divorce with Juliana Neiman, we take a look at emotional obstacles that might prevent us from moving forward into healthy sexual relationships.

Some may enter into a new relationship only to find themselves still harboring feelings of low self-esteem and fear that their new relationship will go the same path as their last one. By confronting our emotional issues up front and gaining a better understanding of ourselves, our fears and negative feelings fade away.

Juliana also addresses sexual emotions and fears that cause some people to feel insecure about becoming sexually involved with a new partner, and we discuss how to feel more comfortable with our own sexuality.

The Role Hormones Play in Relationships, Health & Your Life Mar 16, 2012

Show notes

So how are you feeling post divorce? How's your energy, weight or mood? If you're feeling in a funk, it may be more than just your divorce, it could be a hormone imbalance.

As we age, both men and women's hormone levels change. This can result in depression, weight loss/gain, and reduced mental acuity. The loss of healthy hormone levels in women account for their menopause and the reduction of male hormones can cause andropause in men. Women don't have to suffer through menopause and men don't have to suffer depression and erectile dysfunction.

Balanced hormone levels in couples can equal a closer, loving bond, and in this episode of Single Again! Now What?, world renowned anti aging physician, Dr. Edward Lichten, joins the show to tell us why.

Joanie, Lesley and Steve talk to Dr. Lichten about:

Hormone replacement therapy (HRT)
The health benefits of healthy hormone levels
The ill effects of declining hormone levels
How hormones can increase your sex drive
The risks of HRT
Our toxic environment
And more.

Have You Suffered Trauma? Mar 14, 2012

Show notes

In this episode of The Intelligent Divorce with Mark Banschick, M.D., we discuss Trauma. Most of us has heard of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, a severe form of trauma. This is triggered by a severe event such a car accident, or the trauma of a battlefield.

We're going to discuss the most common form, Complex Trauma, and see how it can creep into our relationships. Complex trauma can occur as a result of domestic violence or from suffering a trauma at an early age and now in adulthood, issues trigger past trauma. So the question is, have you been traumatized and if so, is there treatment available?

Once you recognize your triggers you can begin the process of detoxifying the trauma. Dr. Banschick believes that traumas can be treated with much success and offers hope for a peaceful future.

Internet Dating, Singapore and More Mar 08, 2012

Show notes

On this episode of Single Again! Now What?, Joanie, Lesley and Steve discuss internet dating. The trio talk about their experiences and thoughts about this popular dating trend for the single again crowd.

Is dating after divorce different for men than women? How do you go from meeting on a dating site to meeting in person? Is face-to-face Skyping a better way to find a love interest? We cover it all and much more. We also touch on the topic of loneliness after divorce, and, as usual, we do it with plenty of laughs. We also give a shout out to our friends listening in Singapore. (We love Singapore!)

The program includes a visit from Cindy Sample, author of Dying for a Date and the sequel, Dying for a Dance. Her books are receiving rave reviews. Author Linda Lovely raves: "In Cindy Sample's newest humor-packed mystery, the author packages her whodunit puzzle in the glittering wrapper of ballroom dance competition. With pacing as energetic as a mambo, Dying for a Dance will have readers turning pages to see if the feisty single mom can calm a Bridezilla gal pal, squeeze in lip locks with a hunky detective, save her bank and her job, and figure out who is murdering dance instructors. Laughs abound along with ample thrills. When this dance ends, you'll applaud."

Getting Over Victim Mentality After Divorce Mar 05, 2012

Show notes

In this episode of Divorce Source Radio with Steve Peck, Certified Divorce Coach & Master Energy Practitioner, Karen McMahon, is our guest and helps us understand Victim Mentality.

Many people fee victimized after going through divorce and victimization is counterproductive in moving forward with our new life. When people feel victimized, their focus is centered on themselves and their personal energy becomes very low and destructive.

Karen teaches us how to shift out of victim mentality by addressing the following topics:

Realizing that getting angry is a step in the right direction
How to change your thoughts from why you can't to why you can
Understanding the first step is awareness
How to detach from conflict into detachment
The role forgiveness plays is detaching from victim mentality
And much more.

Ultimately, we all want to live in peace and joy. We need to get past conflict, into forgiveness and then to compassion. Once we reach that place, we can live in peace and move towards a more joyful life with less negative energy in our lives.

The Benefits of Taking a Personality Assessment test Mar 01, 2012

Show notes

Joanie, Lesley and Steve take an online personality assessment test to determine their personality traits. This is a fun test that listeners can take as well for more insight into their traits and what they should be looking for in a partner. Joanie's labeled a S. D. I., Lesley a I.D., and Steve's a I/SD. So what in the world does that mean and can knowing our personality traits help us improve relationships?

The online assessment test takes you only about 15-20 minutes to complete. It provides concise, yet very helpful insights based on your answers. The assessment also includes charts and your scores. Don't look at this as a test as this is something you can't fail. There are no right or wrong answers, just your individual preferences.

So come along for the ride as we get a better handle on what makes us tick. Only Joanie, Lesley and Steve can make test taking fun! ;) For more on the Single Again!
