Today, I’m joined by financial planner and author Julie Murphy to discuss how aligning with your authentic self can transform your financial reality. So many of us are not living the life we want because we feel stuck in our financial situation. Julie offers a fresh perspective on how that shifts when we love ourselves first and create the safety that allows us to choose adventure. Here's what we cover: How to embrace a new kind of discomfort that will enable you to pivot to the lifestyle you actually want How our programming has led us to “make do” or “figure it out” even when it's not our job Why listening to your body is the most effective way to make the right financial decision How building your trust muscle will help you toward financial freedom Examples to help you learn how to accept disappointing someone in a financial setting The value of a support system when you're finding financial empowerment I can't wait for you to listen.

I'm excited to welcome Dr. Casperson to the podcast today to discuss the impact of cultural stigmas about women's health and sexuality, and expand on last week’s episode about practical ways women can advocate for themselves when it comes to perimenopause. Here’s what we cover: The narrow societal definition of who deserves a sex life and the misinformation it has caused How good girl rules are often reinforced by medical professionals even when it’s not intentional The female body isn’t a niche–every physician should understand it Changes in women’s sexuality that can signal perimenopause: arousal, desire, pain, and orgasm Why one of the biggest menopause myths is that you “get over it” at a certain point The goal of perimenopause education isn’t perfection–it’s living life at the highest quality possible I can’t wait for you to listen.

This stage of life has had a significant impact on me, as well as my sisters and friends—just as it does for all women at a certain point. In this episode, I investigate how the lack of information and support for women going through perimenopause ties back to one important factor: how religious teachings about Eve have influenced the way society views and treats women. Here's what we cover: A poem by Danielle Coffyn that highlights the way men and women are viewed differently based on how Eve is depicted as morally and intellectually inferior How the story of Eve is directly linked to so many hardships women face–from victim blaming to not receiving adequate medical care Examples of good girl programming that often stops women from demanding more for themselves Why it is important to listen to the message that feminine rage sends us What you can do to advocate for yourself and receive the care and support you need during perimenopause I can't wait for you to listen.

Here’s what we cover: Why just having a plan on paper is never going to create lasting results because we have to go the extra step to evaluate what actually works How planning triggers the reward centers of the brain because you are imagining doing the plan perfectly, but this often leads to inaction instead of achievement We know we can do hard things, but a plan shifts our focus to wishfulness instead of doing the work How to speak to yourself with compassion so your evaluation doesn't feel like self-punishment 5 questions to help you uncover the reason your plan didn’t work and how to adjust moving forward It’s possible to allow yourself to feel your emotions while also being curious and realistic Why it’s important to acknowledge your efforts every step of the way - not just when you get a result I can't wait for you to listen!

Instead, if we get to a place where we are generous and can grieve our mistakes, we can move on to be better versions of ourselves. In this episode, I talk about how the themes of Wicked relate to my journey of becoming an ex-good girl and the importance of self-compassion when you have to question your beliefs. Here’s what I cover: How the representation of power structures fueled by patriarchy in the Wicked movie relate to our society Why you can't grow into better versions of yourself without acknowledging that past versions made mistakes How my experience as a member of the Mormon church has similarities to Glinda’s character arc in Wicked Two good-girl beliefs that are roadblocks to learning from our mistakes and becoming better friends and allies How we have been conditioned to react to shame and think negatively about changing our mind Why we often jump to defend our beliefs instead of being open to the idea of exploring new ones I can't wait for you to listen!

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedSend us a text In this episode, you’ll get a glimpse into my musical-loving heart as I discuss the feminist themes of the movie, Wicked , and moments in the film that took me back to a time when I had to realize a hard truth. Here’s what I cover: Why we all deserve to have beliefs consistent with having autonomy and being able to find what we like and what we want to do How the song “Defying Gravity” helped me through a challenging time in my life Why the realization that something that provides goodness and safety is actually doing us harm is a shared experience for many Each of us is worthy of being in relationships, friendships, and careers that do not exist inside circumstances that require us to ignore part of what is going on in order to be happy An important truth about people pleasing and gender equality is illuminated in an essay by Celeste Davis I can't wait for you to listen.
