What does it mean to be truly feminine in a modern world? NeW Media Relations Coordinator Emma DeGrado steps behind the microphone at NeW's annual Leadership Retreat in Nashville to guest host a conversation with Hannah Brusven, founder and editor-in-chief of The Swish. Hannah shares how a college blog about elegance grew into a quarterly […]
What happens when you realize you may have loved what your marriage REPRESENTED more than the relationship itself?Jacquie Langworthy grew up in a loving two-parent household with highly involved parents. That upbringing shaped her expectations for marriage, family and what her future was “supposed” to look like.So when she reached her late 20s, marriage felt like the natural next step.But looking back, Jacquie can now ask a much harder question:Did I deeply love the man—or did I love the idea of marriage, family and what we represented together?In this candid conversation on The Secret Formula of Femininity, licensed psychologist Dr. Nicole Monteiro sits down with education entrepreneur, mother and Raising Scholars host Jacquie Langworthy to talk about marriage, divorce, motherhood, over-functioning, parenting guilt and rebuilding a life that no longer looks the way you originally imagined it would.Jacquie opens up about:❤️ Growing up with parents who modeled commitment and involvement—but not necessarily healthy conflict❤️ Meeting her former husband at Essence Fest❤️ The social pressure she felt to marry in her late 20s❤️ Realizing she may have been more attached to what the relationship represented than to the relationship itself❤️ Traditional gender-role expectations inside a marriage where she was also financially contributing❤️ Over-functioning in marriage and motherhood❤️ Divorcing when her children were 6 and 7❤️ The guilt she carried about the moments she believed her children missed because of the divorce❤️ Raising children after divorce—and watching them become young adults❤️ Learning to stop doing everything for her children and allow them to develop independence❤️ The pulmonary embolism during pregnancy that forced a woman accustomed to doing everything to slow down❤️ How homeschooling ultimately helped lead her toward entrepreneurship and opening her Kumon center❤️ What she's learned from raising children who are now 19 and 20❤️ Becoming open to intentional dating and relationships again❤️ What she understands about love, marriage and herself now that she didn't understand in her 20sOne of the most important ideas in this conversation is that growing up in a two-parent household can give us a model for commitment without necessarily giving us a model for everything healthy relationships require.Children need to see love.But they also learn from watching adults disagree, repair, apologize, communicate needs and navigate conflict.And for women accustomed to handling everything, there's another question worth asking:When does being capable turn into over-functioning?Sometimes the patterns that help us succeed professionally can become exhausting inside our relationships and families.Jacquie's story isn't about whether divorce is success or failure.It's about examining the expectations we inherit, the choices we make, what we learn when life doesn't follow the original plan—and who we become afterward.

There's also an ADHD coach who answers listeners' questions. Check out The ADHD Channel for Women here This episode from The ADHD Channel for Women is called 'I've never felt like a good woman...' You'll hear a complex conversation about ADHD, femininity, gender, and why talking about the hard stuff is important. Cate sits down with Rae Jacobson, host of Understood.org's Hyperfocus podcast, journalist, and a producer on this show. They talk about something they've both struggled to name: the collision between ADHD, femininity, and gender expression. They dig into what it felt like to watch other girls “get it.” The tidiness. The calm. The effortlessness. All things that executive dysfunction made feel out of reach. They talk about the pressure to be nurturing, organized, and endlessly available — and what happens when your brain doesn't cooperate with any of it. And they look at the research on outcomes for women and girls with ADHD." This week's episode is sponsored by Understood.org, the leading nonprofit dedicated to empowering the millions of people with learning and thinking differences, such as ADHD and dyslexia.

Send us Fan MailThis week, Sarah and Romana get deep into the reality of competing in bodybuilding - from femininity and stage presentation to judging standards, posing, training volume and the mental side of preparation.They discuss the criticism surrounding Anastasia Korableva, including her posing routine and use of wigs, and question why athletes are still judged against narrow ideas of what a “feminine” bodybuilder should look like. They also explore how different federations can favour completely different physiques and posing styles, and whether competitors sometimes have to adapt their presentation to fit what judges are looking for.On the training side, they break down volume management, recovery, single-leg pressing, joint health and workout splits, including why doing less can sometimes lead to better progress. Romana also talks about stepping away from constant logbooking and how detaching from numbers has changed her relationship with training.They get into WPD vs Women's Bodybuilding posing, bikini trends, stage presentation, competition prep and the pressure to conform, before looking ahead to Romana's plans for next season, managing iron levels, and taking time off around her upcoming wedding.Expect plenty of bodybuilding opinions, competition talk, training debates, federation politics, femininity, swear words and unfiltered gym chat.And the question of the episode: Is “bitch” offensive - and what's your favourite swear word?Find Romana on Instagram @romana.skotzen_ifbbproWatch it here: https://youtu.be/DTvJRBGHZS0Find Sarah on Instagram: @sarahparker_bbTHE ULTIMATE SHOW DAY GUIDE E-BOOK: Purchase hereBeyond Condition Coaching Application: Click here
What if you could completely transform your marriage — without your husband changing a single thing? In this episode of The Midlife Makeover Show, Wendy Valentine sits down with Alicia Johnson, certified Laura Doyle relationship coach and founder of Crown of Honey, who went from constant fighting, controlling everything, and believing she'd married the wrong guy… to rebuilding her marriage from the inside out. Alicia shares the six intimacy skills that changed everything — starting with self-care (the real kind), the daily gratitude practice that dissolved years of resentment, and what happened when she finally let go of control and let her husband step up. She also opens up about feminine energy, the fear hiding underneath our need to control, and why your joy is your responsibility — and your power. If you're exhausted, stuck, or secretly miserable in your marriage but divorce isn't what you want, this conversation is your permission slip to stop waiting for him to change.✨ What You'll Learn• Why the woman who shifts first changes the whole atmosphere of her home — no couples therapy required• The six intimacy skills — and why real self-care (not just pedicures) is the foundation of all of them• How a daily gratitude practice “hijacks your brain” and dissolves resentment — because the two can't coexist• How to stop complaining and start expressing your desires femininely — so he finally knows how to make you happy• What's really hiding underneath control (hint: it's fear) — and how to let it go without losing yourself
In this episode of Reclaim Your Rise, Lauren sits down with Kelsey Lynn Stokes and Francesca Spinello, co-founders of Calycanthus Lingerie, a company creating feminine, functional insulin pump holders for women who wear tubed pumps.Kelsey's story with Risely started years before Calycanthus existed. After living with T1D since age 13, she came to Risely at one of her lowest points with diabetes. Through 1:1 coaching, she brought her A1C from 8.1% to 6.3% and began changing her relationship with T1D.Now, she's taking an insecurity she remembers having as a 22-year-old woman starting on an insulin pump and turning it into something that gives other women more choice in how they dress, date, celebrate, and express themselves.Plus, Kelsey takes us behind the scenes of her career in film and television as a script supervisor, and how living with T1D has given her a unique perspective on diabetes representation on screen.WHAT WE COVER:How Kelsey went from an 8.1 A1C and nearly in tears asking for help to a 6.3 and building a company for the T1D communityThe heartbreaking question Kelsey asked the night before getting her first insulin pump at 22How losing a dress on a train in Italy eventually led to a patented product for women with T1DWhy Kelsey once wondered, “Who's going to love me if I have this on?” and the emotional side of wearing an insulin pump while dating and being intimateThe difference between hiding your diabetes and simply not wanting it to be the first thing people seeWhat TV gets painfully wrong about T1D, from someone who works behind the scenesWhy Kelsey says her 13-year-old self would have been “less scared” if she could see her life nowCONNECT WITH KELSEY + CALYCANTHUS:Kelsey Lynn Stokes(founder): @thewanderingdiabeticCalicanthus Lingerie: @calycanthuslingerieShop ProductsWHAT'S NEXT:
This week, I talk with Kristin Kobes Du Mez about her new book Live, Laugh Love: The Secret History of White Christian Womenand the World They Made. Listen to hear all about:How Live Laugh Love grew out of Kristin Kobes Du Mez's Jesus and John Wayne, shifting the focus from evangelical masculinity to the history and culture surrounding white Christian women. The surprising roots of “biblical womanhood” and hyper-femininity—and how ideas presented as timeless Christian gender roles have actually changed dramatically over time. How Christian romance novels, music, bookstores, mommy blogs, influencers, Hallmark movies, and other seemingly harmless pop culture helped create an entire ecosystem of Christian values and messaging. The fascinating overlap between evangelicalism, MLMs, capitalism, and positive-thinking culture—including why Kristin sees striking similarities between MLM structures and high-control religious systems. Why “I'm not political” can itself mask deeply political beliefs—and how ideas about faith and family quietly shape views on everything from education and immigration to welfare and economic policy.

What if some of the relationship advice you've been following sounds healthy…but is actually keeping you stuck?“If he really loves me, I shouldn't have to tell him what I need.”“If I compromise, I'm settling.”“When it's the right person, the relationship should feel natural.”“If I'm right, my partner needs to understand that I'm right.”Sound familiar?
Have you swung from endless hustling straight into complete surrender, only to find yourself feeling stuck, passive, and unable to build consistent momentum?

What if you chose the right person…but still don't have a healthy relationship?We spend SO much time learning how to find the right partner.Look for green flags. Avoid red flags. Find someone emotionally available. Know your standards. Choose someone compatible. Pay attention to attachment styles.All important.But there's a part of the conversation we don't talk about nearly enough:Choosing a healthy partner and knowing how to BE a healthy partner are two different skills.In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, licensed psychologist Dr. Nicole Monteiro explores why two basically good people can still create an unhealthy relationship—and the relationship skills that help healthy love actually grow.We're talking about:
What does it truly mean to live as a spiritual woman when life throws an inconvenient curveball at your plans? ✨Just before hosting a major live workshop for the Sacred Roots Mystery School, I stepped out for a quiet, grounding walk to connect with my soul. Instead of silent meditation, I met two lost dogs, which I eventually felt was an urgent situation and a powerful test of spiritual surrender.What followed was an incredible, mind-blowing synchronicity involving a mysterious helper named Michael and his dog Mystique - a literal, physical reflection of angelic guidance sent directly to support an act of service.In this video, I aim to express the heart of true spiritual embodiment: how we treat others when no one is watching, how we handle sudden interruptions, and why the universe always rushes in with support the moment you choose love over convenience.In this video, you will explore:
Sheila and Garrick met as college sweethearts. He was an Alpha Phi Alpha man. She was an Alpha Kappa Alpha woman. They fell in love, got married, became parents, built careers and businesses—and more than three decades later, they're still building a life together.But I didn't want to ask them for another list of “secrets to a successful marriage.”I wanted to know something deeper:What do you understand about love, partnership and choosing a spouse after 30+ years that you couldn't possibly have understood when you first fell in love?In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, licensed psychologist Dr. Nicole Monteiro sits down with Sheila and Garrick for an honest conversation about long-term marriage, growing together, conflict, parenting, ambition, money, change, and what it really takes to keep choosing each other through different seasons of life.We talk about:

Are Your Dating Standards Too High—or Are You Protecting What Matters?Should women lower their standards to find love?I think we're asking the wrong question.The real question is whether the things on your relationship checklist are truly standards—or whether some of them are preferences, expectations, or even fantasies we've mistaken for requirements.In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, licensed psychologist Dr. Nicole Monteiro breaks down the difference between high standards and unrealistic expectations in dating and relationships.And no—this isn't another conversation telling successful women they're “too picky.”Instead, we're getting much more specific about what actually helps create a healthy, lasting relationship.You'll learn:The difference between a standard, an important quality, a preference, and a fantasyWhy having high standards isn't necessarily the problemHow to tell whether you're being selective or unrealisticThe difference between settling and being flexibleWhy chemistry and compatibility aren't always the same thingHow past experiences can influence what we put on our dating listsWhy income, education, height, status, and lifestyle may carry deeper psychological meaningThe qualities that actually matter when you're trying to build healthy loveHow to conduct your own Dating Standards AuditOne of the most important distinctions in this episode:Settling is abandoning a standard. Flexibility is reconsidering a preference.Those are NOT the same thing.

In this interview I go in depth in my journey, how I went from having everything, to quitting it all to find my Self, my Purpose and stop living a life that was not mine. This is a conversation about what happens when you say yes to yourself, not your expectations. I traces the thread from childhood sensitivity, ancient Egypt, and hieroglyphs to a divorce, a leap to India, and a complete restart in Quebec, where I studied energy healing and received the first teachings that would later become my mystery school.In this intimate story-telling interview You'll discover:
What makes a man decide that a woman isn't just someone he wants to date—but someone he wants to marry?At Podcast Summit, I had the opportunity to sit down with entrepreneurs and podcast mentors CJ and David Shands and ask them a deceptively simple question: Why did you choose your wife?Their answers led to a much bigger conversation.In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, you'll hear directly from CJ and David about the qualities they saw in their wives, the role boundaries played, and what made these women stand out as people they wanted to build a life with.Then, as a licensed psychologist, I unpack their answers through the lens of relationship psychology and healthy love.We explore:What makes attraction different from long-term compatibilityThe qualities two married men valued in the women they choseWhy healthy boundaries can make a woman more—not less—relationally secureThe difference between attracting someone and building with someoneWhy women shouldn't turn men's preferences into another performance checklistWhat we should be asking ourselves if marriage and healthy partnership are the goalBecause the most important question isn't simply:“How do I get someone to choose me?”A better question may be:“What am I bringing into the relationship I'm asking for?”

Happy August 1st! Happy Lughnasadh (also known as Lammas) on the Wheel of the Year!
Have you ever met someone who treated you well… and still found yourself wondering if something was missing?As a psychologist, I've seen this happen more often than most people realize.Many women say they want peace, consistency, and emotional safety—but when they finally experience those qualities, they can feel unfamiliar because chaos, uncertainty, or emotional highs and lows have become what their nervous system recognizes as "normal."In this episode of The Secret Formula of Femininity, I invite you into a different kind of conversation. Together, we'll compare two relationships, explore how your nervous system responds to each, and uncover why healthy love often feels different than we've been taught to expect.In this episode you'll learn:
Nick Koeppel is joined by Helen to recap a Theology of the Body conference held in Dublin's St Teresa's Church, covering talks on masculinity, femininity, celibacy for the kingdom, and a married couple's witness to trusting providence through seven children. The pair also retrace the pilgrimage that followed it: a rain-soaked climb of Croagh Patrick and a first sight of the sea stack at Downpatrick Head.

In this episode of The Truth In This Art, the guest is Jose Duran.About Jose Duran: Born in Moca, Dominican Republic, Duran is a painter, designer, and sculptor whose work constructs elaborate, opulent interiors rooted in Baroque and Rococo traditions. His practice is grounded in extensive research into survival, celebration, vengeance, sabotage, and aspirational desire within Black communities. Duran centers Black feminine figures in his compositions as a reclamation of their historically overlooked contributions to European standards of taste, and as a form of retribution for generations of forced labor under colonial rule.In the conversation, Duran discusses his early career in fashion, including time spent studying and working in Paris, as well as an MBA program in Taipei focused on the Asian luxury market. He explains his decision, at age 41, to leave the fashion industry behind and commit fully to becoming a visual artist, a shift shaped in part by a residency in Senegal that marked his entry into the art world.Duran describes the influence of his late mother, a hairstylist whose gatherings between the Bronx and the Dominican Republic shaped his early understanding of beauty, celebration, and hospitality. He also outlines his research process, including his study of the historical relationship between textiles and the transatlantic slave trade, and his investigation into love-attraction plants once used by enslaved women in the Caribbean, both of which directly inform his work.The conversation also touches on Duran's early relationship with artist Mickalene Thomas, and how that connection shaped both his confidence and his development as an artist.Follow Jose Duran on Instagram at @joseduranstudio to keep up with his work and future projects.Photo courtesy of subject.

Now, Lucianne has written Good Witch, a brand new non-fiction book that explores how the witch hunts were the catalyst for much of what is wrong with our world today: climate change, our disconnection from nature, and the corrupt patriarchal systems we live under. Good Witch looks back at the witch hunts that swept Europe and America in the 16, 17 and 18th centuries and explores how ‘witchy’ or ‘women’s work’ like gardening and textiles is regaining popularity in the current moment.
