Big Kid Problems

Spring has Sprung and that means Wedding Season is in the air! Now I don’t know about you guys but I actually love wedding season. Free food, dressing up, open bar – that’s all my favorite things. But I know it can get old fast and become a real #bigkidproblem if you’re shelling out a ton of money over and over again to celebrate OTHER peoples happiness. And to be real.. its gotten a little out of hand recently. . But that’s why I thought it would be fun to kick this wedding season off with a little specialty episode, where we can get the real dirt behind the scenes of weddings with two all-star Wedding Planners who have SEEN IT ALL.

That’s why I ventured to Nashville Tennessee to sit down with the duo behind H-3-Events, Hugh Howser and Kate Steele. They are my panel AND my experts this week because they live and breathe all things weddings and have some tea to SPILL. We talk everything from Momzillas, to missing Brides, bad bridesmaids, open bar fails, dance floor makeouts infront of Grandma and so much more. We even chat some money-saving tips and I test YOUR knowledge of some wedding traditions at the end that might just blow your mind.

This week, we are getting into it folks. We are diving into a BIG #Bigkidproblem that I’m sure has effected 100% of you listening at one point r another. This – is the Anxiety Episode. Maybe you struggle with anxiety every day or maybe you just had a super stressful period like a breakup, or a job loss – but one thing is for certain. You either have or will face anxiety at one point or another.

Word of warning... this episode is a bit of a wild ride. Our roundtable goes off the rails (I should have known) with comediennes Wrenn Woods and Audrey Stewart. We talk about

-Sunday Scaries

-To-Do list anxiety

-Financial Stress

-Sexuality Stress

-Social Anxiety

And then things get serious with our expert of the week, Therapist and Executive Coach, Megan Bruneau. She gives us a TON of information, tips and tools to get control of our emotions and overcome our anxiety. A few things we discuss:

-How we use technology, social media, etc to “numb”

-Is anxiety increasing?

-Perfectionism & Goal Setting “When I do this, I’ll be happy” trap

-How to stop from getting swept away in our emotions

Practicing self compassion & mindfullness

10. We Barely Bang! Relationship Sex Ruts, Bringing the Mojo back, Sexual Compatibility, Passion vs Compassionate Love

Lets. Get. Intimate. This week we are talking all things Sex & Relationships, and more specifically, why sexy time begins to diminish with your significant other. Andrea Syrtash, author of several dating and relationship books including “Cheat on Your Husband, With your Husband” AND “He’s Just not your type: and that’s a good thing” is our expert this week and she breaks down why we get into sex ruts in the first place and provides USABLE tips and tools to bring the mojo back. We also have dating coach Ana Morgenstern and Conor Crehan of Barstool Sports’ Zero Blog Thirty Podcast on our roundtable to give female and male perspectives of this phenomenon. Some topic that arise: - How often couples “should” have sex. What’s “normal”? - Male vs. Female libido - Communicating your needs - Sexual Compatibility - Feeling “sexually rejected” by your partner - Why fourplay starts way outside of the bedroom - Small things you can do to set the mood - When a sex rut signifies a bigger problem in the relationship.
