The Midlife Sex Coach for Women™ Podcast

200. Giving Your Last F*ck Aug 28, 2024

Starting this podcast was my way of saying, "I’m done playing by the rules," and sharing my journey with all of you. Which is why I wanted to shift the focus to a powerful concept of “giving your last fuck”. This isn't about sexual intimacy or specific acts - it's about living boldly and authentically, on your own terms. Midlife brings a newfound freedom, where the expectations and judgments of others start to fade, leaving us with the most important question: Are you truly happy?

Tune in to this final episode as we dive into how you can live your fullest life - authentically and unapologetically. We’ll explore how to trust your intuition, prioritize your own happiness, and disregard the societal rules that were designed to keep us small. This is your moment, your second half of life, and I’m here to celebrate it with you. Let’s make it count.

179. Manifestation with Coach Lisa Hatlestad Feb 14, 2024

By closing ourselves off to possibilities, we are also manifesting, but what we manifest is the absence of possibilities. This week, Master Coach Lisa Hatlestad is back on the show to talk about manifestation and the importance of believing that magic and possibilities can happen.

178. The Power of Manifestation Feb 07, 2024

Earlier this year, I started a new series for 2024, using tarot cards as means of discussion. I use them to introduce a concept, rather than focus on the cards themselves because I love what they can represent in our lives. In today’s episode, I explore the meaning of the Magician. I share how it represents manifestation, and how it takes the intention of the Fool and adds in will and determination to turn something imagined into reality.

Tune in to discover how to make your dreams a reality with the help of the Magician. Learn how to work on what’s blocking your beliefs, ask yourself what it is that you want in your life and in your sex life. Allow yourself to take the first step to make your dreams come true.
