Enjoy this gentle and meaningful conversation with Marie Bowser, a Licensed Acupuncturist, Feng Shui practitioner, and expert in working with the five elements. We discuss living in attunement with the seasons for finding your way of ease through more rest with fewer plans for a more discerning 2025.Marie encountered Chinese Medicine through her health journey dealing with corporate stress, burnout, and hormone imbalance. The relief she experienced fueled a vision for helping others and a complete career change. Her studies and continuing education eventually brought her deeper into the spiritual aspects of the five elements—qigong, Daoism, the I Ching, Nine Star Ki astrology, and Feng Shui—all of which she uses to help her patients and community develop and sustain self-compassion and empowerment and the unwavering ability to move lingering stagnation through their bodies, spirits, and lives.

Today, Julie Flakstad of The Midlife Truth Project joins us for a seasonal conversation about more midlife truths. If you haven't "met" Julie through our original episode, her links are below. In today's conversation, we cover the ache of letting go, holding onto expectations in parenting and relationships, the changing role of families, and so much more. The Midlife Truth Project was originally a series of interviews, a time capsule of thoughts and feelings about women's experiences at the intersection of their 40s and 50s. Now, these vulnerable shared truths from the Midlife Truth Project, a cross-generational portal of wisdom, help normalize and reframe what aging looks like today. Just like you, Julie wears many hats in her daily life, including the new role of producer. In midlife, she has chosen to lead intentionally by surrounding herself with people and experiences that trigger ideas and spark conversation on her new podcast, The Midlife Truth Project. If evolving friendships, changing family dynamics, financial security, ever-changing body awareness in the physical and spiritual sense, hormones, or sex have caught you in a riptide, give yourself permission to be heard, reflect, laugh, and maybe even cry because that's good, too. We invite you to follow and befriend Julie of The Midlife Truth Project.

We reviewed Claire Dederer's "Monsters, a Fan's Dilemma." If you still need to read it, we have linked the original article that inspired this book to a journal entry on our website. But in this episode, Alexis Kletjian reads passages from "Monsters," so you can easily follow along. Our favorite chapter was about "The Fan," exploring the role of fandom and its consequences while diving into the complexities of artistic appreciation and the challenge of sidestepping ownership as the audience. Lauren Golt, a bonafide film connoisseur, leads a chapter dedicated to Woody Allen. Towards the end, she questions whether artists can achieve redemption for their monstrous acts, especially in the context of surviving cancel culture. Her passion for cinema has inspired her to create Bar Reverie's CINEMONDAYS, a monthly event series at her restaurant where she curates film screenings. This episode is full of contemplative pauses as we question ourselves and each other. The question remains: what do we do with the art of monstrous men?

We are on a journey with color. For the Luxuries for Your Soul rebrand website, it felt appropriate to begin with colors representing self-love and prioritizing relationships and partnerships that align with our purpose. This small bite episode is a Lesson in Luxury on color psychology and the meaning we assign to objects representing a specific hue. The Love and Relationship Collection is a captivating fusion of vibrant colors and the potent healing properties of gemstones. It's not just about the stones but your deliberate choice to harmonize with our inner and outer worlds. According to Feng Shui, the Bagua, an ancient energetic map, is divided into nine sections, each representing a specific aspect of life. The Love & Relationship Collection activates a Gua that influences self-love, relationships, and partnerships. You can enhance and manifest this energy by surrounding yourself with objects that symbolize love, happiness, and peace and adorning yourself in romantic colors that support this area of life. Indulge in a consultation, acquire a powerful talisman, and pamper yourself with Luxuries for Your Soul. You deserve it. www.luxuriesforyoursoul.com Join our exclusive private Facebook Community for question prompts surrounding this episode and more behind-the-scenes conversations.

Melissa Holgado joins Alexis and Lauren to share the renovation story about Red Hill, a historical federal-style plantation home with enslaved quarters built in 1825 in central Virginia on 40 acres in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Melissa and her family dream of restoring Red Hill, transforming its somber energy into a place of dignity and respect, a respite from a busy life. But this is not your regular remodel: there was no running water, plumbing, or electricity, and it sat untouched for many years. It is a project of love. Melissa acknowledges the privilege of owning it and practices gratitude for its place in history. This conversation has many layers, making you think about all the details that make a house a home.

In this episode, Alexis and Lauren go between the sheets. Why is sex discussed so easily when we're in our 20s but feel off-limits later in life? Why aren't dinners with girlfriends similar to a Sex and the City episode: a group of women asking questions, giving advice, and sharing their likes and dislikes? Is sex a form of self-care?

Alexis and Lauren continue their conversation about Money. This time, they dig deeper into personal and professional stories while referencing the book that inspired this conversation: Happy Money by Ken Honda. Money is more than paper or numbers; it is energy. In a scarcity mindset, this energy carries fear-based emotions of stress, anxiety, hopelessness, injustice, jealousy, and more. But, reframed positively, Money can transform lives and inspire hope, freedom, and the ability to express appreciation, gratitude, and happiness.

Thalia Fischer, founder of All Seated in a Barn, is a profoundly empathetic human with a heart of gold. A self-described problem-solver, while in 5th grade, found her calling when she gave a passionate speech about the inhumane treatment and slaughter of horses. All Seated in a Barn is on the ground at auctions, pulling as many horses and donkeys from direct kill shipping to Mexico and Canada for slaughter. Sometimes, it's a rescue, rehab, and relocation to live the rest of their lives forever safe from human harm. Unfortunately, she also rescues them for a humane end of their lives rather than being shipped off to certain death at the cruel and profiting hands of others. All Seated in a Barn is a public 501c3 charity and a recent recipient of The Humane Society of the United States. Its current team of 30 dreams of positively growing its organization, and at the time of this conversation, All Seated in a Barn has saved 2,252 lives.

Two years ago, Dana was in a heterosexual marriage, and she is now living a happy, authentic life as a lesbian, sharing the kids between two loving households. Alexis and Lauren have a conversation with Dana that spans the beginning of her journey in sexual exploration to mourning the loss of the life she knew, rediscovering herself, and experiencing sacred intimacy in a raw, unfiltered episode. We laughed. We cried. We asked a lot of questions, and Dana answered everything, fully aware that she didn't need to give anyone an explanation, but her candidness is what has helped her heal. She hopes her story has the power to touch the lives of anyone who may be struggling with their sexuality.

Alexis and Lauren have a conversation with Julie Flakstad, speaker, writer, and founder of The Midlife Truth Project, an initiative aimed at better understanding the myriad of transitions that women face, often simultaneously, as they settle into their 40s + 50s. Having helped create and produce over 350 events, workshops, and programs over the past ten years, Julie is working on a documentary about menopause + midlife. An advocate of cross-generational learning, she is passionate about bringing women of all ages together around complex and vulnerable topics. If evolving friendships, changing family dynamics, financial security, ever-changing body awareness in the physical and spiritual sense, hormones, or sex have left you tousled, give yourself permission to be heard, reflect, laugh, and maybe even cry because that's good too. Nothing is off limits when dismantling grief, regret, guilt, or shame.
