LET'S TALK ABOUT SEX: How to communicate with your partner to have better sex with host of the Good Girls Talk About Sex podcast, Leah Carey! Sep 04, 2019

Show notes

Is sex my favorite thing to talk about? We'll never know.

Leah Carey became a sexual communication coach when she realized she needed to teach what she wanted to learn. She realized that "talking about things in advance can either set me up for great experiences or prevent me from getting down with the wrong person."

And we are so lucky to have her be teaching us this week on this important topic. No one gives us roadmaps about having sex or being in a relationship. Leah wanted to close that gap by helping people communicate in something that is really hard to do (SEX!).

WE STAN A PHILOSOPHICAL CONVERSATION: Talking about millennial life, boundaries, and relationships with writer Megan Wildhood Aug 28, 2019

Show notes

Thanks for listening to the SYNTK podcast!

In this episode, I talk with Megan Wildhood (https://meganwildhood.com/) about everything under the sun. I originally am not sure why I asked her to be on the show, other than that I like interesting poeple and talking to them about interesting things.

That's how we got talking about her life and mine - anything from life, love, relationships, family, and everything in between. I enjoyed her philosophical take on things, and I hope you do, too.

CREATE YOUR FUTURE or STAY AT A JOB YOU HATE? The choice is yours! with Lauren Armstrong of Created Future Academy Aug 21, 2019

Show notes

If you're like me, you have a 9 to 5 job. Maybe you sometimes catch yourself on Twitter or Reddit for a little too long and then suddenly wonder how it got to be 2 pm and you haven't done any work all day?

Yeah, me neither....

Lauren was just like us - she worked at a fancy job in Houston, TX that paid a lot but that she hated. She realized that everyone was overworked, super tired, and not following their dreams. Lauren realized that it was possible to have a job you love, she just had to create it first.

Created Future Academy allows Lauren to help guide women during this transition from corporate to CEO as well as helping them get clear on the steps they actually need from start to finish to create their online business. From being trapped in a cage of their own success to living their freest, fullest version of their lives.

HOW TO SET YOURSELF UP FOR SUCCESS: Tips for personal development and mindset mastery with Lucy Smith Aug 14, 2019

Show notes

In this episode of the podcast, I speak with Lucy Smith all the way from the UK! We chat a lot about what it takes to be successful, and what you need to do to "manage your mind" to overcome self-dobut and any worries or confidence issues you may have.

And trust me - I've been there. I have definitely felt low in confidence and have had plenty of self-doubt. Learning about mindset and making sure I could practice self-care was HUGE for me in overcoming anxiety and setting myself up for success.

Lucy Smith is a Personal Development Mentor after her own struggles with anxiety, fears and confidence. Lucy found her way out of this and continues to manage it using personal development, self-care, a morning and evening routine. After this life changing transformation it became her mission in life to support as many people as possible with their own struggles through personal development. Lucy blogs and has a membership site on Succeed Now and has created a resource library for children at Cheerful Children.

Meet my new co-host, COLBY! Aug 07, 2019

Show notes

Please give a warm welcome to Colby for his first episode as a co-host! I'm so excited to have a co-host for this next chapter of the podcast. As a reminder, there will still be a couple more weeks of interviews, I just wanted to introduce Colby first before the show transitions into its new phase.

Colby and I met online in a Slack community for a podcast we both listen to. Listeners will remember that same podcast caused me to spontaneously book a ticket to Nashville and go to Con of Thrones.

I knew I liked Colby when I realized he was younger than me and even more enthusiastic about memes than I was. He's a podcast veteran of his own show, Never Made Varsity, so I also knew that he knew what he was doing (even though he might tell you differently).

I'm so excited to have Colby on my team going forward! It will be the same podcast, just a slightly different format. There is still a lot of shit you need to know in the world, and we will be making sure that we cover all of it to the best of our abilities.

If you have any suggestions on what we should talk about, feel free to let us know! As a reminder, there are still a couple of interviews left. You'll hear Colby again in September.

A Conversation on Women's Health and Abortion with Amanda Kingsley Jul 24, 2019

Show notes

CONTENT WARNING
This episode contains frank discussion of abortion. Political commentary will not be tolerated.

This episode was such an interesting one to edit and listen to because abortion is not something I have dealt with. However, I know that many women have and on Sh-t You Need to Know, I like to include perspectives from all sorts of people. Amanda and I have a great conversation how why she decided to abort, how it has affected her life now, and what she wishes people would know about her decision. We also talk about how to talk to people about abortion, very #meta, I know.

Amanda Kingsley is a life coach that aims to show women their superpowers. But before all that, she attended midwifery school and practiced as a doula for 3 years! Amanada has been committed to women's health and health issues since day 1, and uses her experiences to help guide women through their feelings surrounding abortion.
