You Do Not Have to Choose: Kim Waller on Having the Career and the Life

I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2421631/fan_mail/new] What if you never had to choose between the career you built and the life you actually want? Kim Waller spent more than three decades at the highest levels of corporate America, holding senior leadership roles at Aon, Willis Towers Watson, and Korn Ferry, helping organizations navigate transformation, inclusion, and culture change. And somewhere in the middle of all of that, she also built a lake house she calls the House of Healing, deepened a yoga practice that has sustained her through divorce, career pivots, and personal reinvention, and became a yoga teacher whose classes fill up every single week. In this conversation we get into what it really means to own your power, why self care is not a luxury but a leadership strategy, the role yoga and mindfulness played in keeping Kim grounded through decades of high pressure leadership, her thoughts on inclusion and why diversity drives high performance, what retirement actually looks like when you have been quietly building a full life all along, and why the most important thing you can do is trust that you have what you need. This is one of those conversations that makes you want to rethink how you have been spending your energy.

Four Ways You Are Stealing Your Own Peace Without Knowing It

I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2421631/fan_mail/new] I have a story I tell sometimes that gets the same reaction every single time. People ask me if I am crazy. It involves a $75 shirt, a register total that did not add up, and a decision that, looking back, taught me more about honesty than almost anything else in my life. Asteya, the third Yama in the Yoga Sutras, is what got me thinking about that story and it completely changed how I define stealing. Turns out there are four different ways we steal without realizing it, and most of them have nothing to do with a cash register. This episode gets into all four, drawing on Deborah Adele's book The Yamas and Niyamas, including the one that might be stealing your own peace right now. Want More?

Real Girls Guide to Midlife: Author Angela Burk on Rewriting the Rules After 50

I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2421631/fan_mail/new] Angela Burk spent years being the good girl. The rule follower. The one who showed up exactly the way everyone expected. Then her forties hit and everything she thought she knew got rewritten all at once. A difficult divorce. A career leap into a pre-IPO startup with no safety net. Menopause she did not see coming until she was already in it. And somewhere in the middle of all of it, falling for a man who lives in Australia while she lives in California. Angela is the founder of Real Girls Guide to Midlife and author of the book by the same name. In this conversation she opens up about the rulebook she spent decades following without ever questioning where it came from, the moment she realized the best parts of herself had gone missing, and what it took to burn that rulebook down and build a version of her life that actually belongs to her. We get into self possession, the stories we let define us at work and at home, why no is a complete sentence, and the simple practice of saying out loud what you need even when no one else is listening. Angela also shares how her sons are responding to the woman she has become and why she has almost no regrets about any of it. Plus Angela is giving away three copies of her book to three lucky listeners. Details on how to enter are in this episode. If you are in the middle of your own midlife rewrite, or you think you might be circling one, this conversation is for you.

Stop Editing Yourself

I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2421631/fan_mail/new] Are you a good blender? Not the kitchen kind. The kind where you walk into a room and immediately start editing yourself down to something safer, smaller, and easier for everyone else to digest. In this episode we get into Satya, the second of the ancient yogic principles called the Yamas, and what truthfulness actually means when you apply it to yourself. Spoiler: it has nothing to do with being brutally honest with other people and everything to do with stopping the performance you have been giving your whole life. Plus what Human Design revealed about why some of us were never built to blend in and what happens when you finally stop trying. Want More?

Can Sex Actually Get Better With Age? with Susan Bratton

I LOVE hearing from you! Drop me a text! 💬 [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2421631/fan_mail/new] What if we’ve been given the wrong story about aging? In this episode of A Beautiful Fix, Tracy sits down with intimacy expert Susan Bratton for a candid conversation about desire, connection, pleasure, and why some things actually do get better with age. Susan shares her own journey from Silicon Valley executive to one of the world’s leading voices on intimacy and sexual wellness. Together, they explore why so many women disconnect from this part of themselves, the difference between sex and intimacy, how pleasure impacts confidence and vitality, and why intimacy can be viewed as a skill set that continues to grow throughout life. This conversation isn’t just about sex. It’s about possibility. It’s about self-trust. It’s about questioning the idea that certain parts of life have an expiration date. In this episode, we discuss: * Why intimacy and pleasure don’t have to decline with age * The difference between sex, connection, and orgasmic intimacy * How cultural conditioning shapes the way women think about desire * Why pleasure, confidence, and vitality are more connected than we realize * The role communication plays in creating deeper intimacy * Why many women are told the wrong story about aging * Susan’s concept of the Upward Pleasure Spiral and how intimacy can continue to evolve throughout life * What becomes possible when women stop assuming the best part is behind them Whether you’re curious about intimacy, navigating midlife, looking to deepen connection in your relationship, or simply interested in what it means to feel more alive, this conversation will give you plenty to think about.
