Drop in with Carli and I as we discuss the beauty and pain of dating post divorce. I feel like Carli is such a mirror for me in so many ways; I look to her for wisdom and comfort in these trying times. In this episode we discuss: 🎤 When do you know when to leave and when to stay? 🎤 How listening to your inner compass changes everything. 🎤 When to ask yourself if your defense mechanisms are necessary? 🎤 The self confidence and self worth you gain from doing hard things. 🎤 Holding space for the strange paradox of learning how to save a relationship after it ends. 🎤 Being patient pays off in that you aren’t miserable while you are waiting for a quality relationship. 🎤 Carli’s mission is to get women out of autopilot Carli is a 37-year-old Sagittarius living life in full color, leading creative vision at a marketing agency by day and crafting bespoke bridal jewelry by night. A lifelong equestrian with a serious case of wanderlust, she’s built a career that favors instinct over routine, with a constant pull toward the unknown.

Episode 1: "Your Growth Lies on the Other Side of Your Perceived Victimhood"

This conversation with Daniel is playful, deep, and full of self-awareness that is only accessible if you truly choose to do the work to connect with yourself. I feel honored that Daniel took the time out of his weekend to record with me and I am grateful to have had the chance to learn from him. That quote in the title is a direct quote from Daniel; it felt a little jabby but nurturing to hear. This episode is available in it’s entirety, but eventually I will only have a portion of future episodes available for free. The Lessons From Love series will be intimate interviews that will only be available to my paid subscribers (its just $5 a month). Let me know if you have any feedback! Love, Amy A little about Daniel: Daniel Quay is a designer, writer, artist, yoga teacher, and ex of Amy’s. He is passionate about self-growth, somatic therapy and conversations on queer relationships and non-normative masculinity. Daniel lives in Baker with three boy cats and is co-raising a little girl with his queer housemates. She just turned two. He is currently learning Spanish, and spends his free time running, practicing yoga, climbing, cycling, figure drawing, and taking naps. Daniel has been a Denver mainstay for almost 20 years, and is looking forward to one day being able to go into a coffee shop without seeing an ex. Ask him about his rich inner life.
