Today her focus is on helping women who are looking for love in midlife and beyond.

Fluent Fiction - Korean: Winter Wonders: Finding Love in Seoul's Market Twinkle Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/ko/episode/2025-12-05-08-38-20-ko Story Transcript:Ko: 서울의 겨울은 다른 곳과 달랐다.En: The winter in Seoul was different from other places.Ko: 특히 하이테크 시티 구역의 겨울 시장은 사람들로 붐벼 활기가 넘쳤다.En: Especially, the winter market in the Hi-tech City district was bustling with people, full of life and energy.Ko: 이곳은 반짝이는 전구와 맛있는 길거리 음식 냄새로 가득했다.En: The place was filled with twinkling lights and the delicious smell of street food.Ko: 한겨울 추위를 잊게 만드는 따뜻한 분위기가 느껴졌다.En: There was a warm atmosphere that made one forget the midwinter cold.Ko: 한편, 하늘은 이곳의 기술 스타트업에서 일하고 있었다.En: Meanwhile, Haneul worked at a tech startup in this area.Ko: 그의 일상은 반복적이었다.En: His daily routine was repetitive.Ko: 오랜 근무 시간 때문에 그는 친구들과 점점 멀어졌다.En: Due to long working hours, he was gradually becoming distant from his friends.Ko: "너무 고립되어 가고 있어." 그는 스스로에게 말했다.En: "I'm becoming too isolated," he said to himself.Ko: 그때, 그의 친구 지수가 말했다. "하늘아, 넌 휴식이 필요해. 겨울 시장에 가봐. 넌 좋아할 거야."En: Then, his friend Jisoo said, "Hey Haneul, you need a break. Go check out the winter market. You'll like it."Ko: 하늘은 처음에는 망설였지만 지수의 조언을 따르기로 했다.En: At first, Haneul hesitated but decided to follow Jisoo's advice.Ko: 일을 마치고 겨울 시장으로 발길을 옮겼다.En: After finishing work, he headed towards the winter market.Ko: 반짝이는 불빛과 따뜻한 음식 냄새가 그를 반겼다.En: The twinkling lights and the warm scent of food welcomed him.Ko: 미나는 프리랜서 일러스트레이터였다.En: Mina was a freelance illustrator.Ko: 크리스마스를 사랑했지만, 서울로 이사 온 이후 처음으로 혼자 보내게 되었다.En: She loved Christmas, but for the first time since moving to Seoul, she was going to spend it alone.Ko: 그 외로움을 달래기 위해 그녀는 겨울 시장에 가기로 했다.En: To ease her loneliness, she decided to visit the winter market.Ko: 시장은 그녀에게 이상적인 겨울 동화 같았다.En: To her, the market seemed like an ideal winter fairy tale.Ko: 그러던 중, 한 핫초코 가판대 앞에서 하늘과 미나는 우연히 부딪혔다.En: While wandering, Haneul and Mina accidentally bumped into each other in front of a hot cocoa stall.Ko: "아, 죄송해요!" 서로 당황하며 웃음을 터뜨렸다.En: "Oh, I'm sorry!" they exclaimed, bursting into laughter as their embarrassment faded.Ko: 그러면서 자연스럽게 대화를 시작했다.En: Naturally, they started a conversation.Ko: "이 시장은 정말 멋지네요!" 하늘이 말했다.En: "This market is really wonderful!" Haneul said.Ko: 미나도 동의했다. "네, 크리스마스 분위기가 정말 좋아요."En: Mina agreed, "Yes, the Christmas atmosphere is really nice."Ko: 시간이 흐를수록, 그들은 사랑하는 것들에 대해 이야기를 나누었다.En: As time went by, they talked about things they loved: technology, art, and even loneliness.Ko: 둘 다 따뜻한 연결을 원하고 있다는 것을 깨달았다.En: They both realized they wanted a warm connection.Ko: 하늘은 이렇게 말했다. "여기서 다시 만나서 시장 골목들을 함께 둘러볼래요?"En: Haneul then said, "Would you like to meet here again and explore the market alleys together?"Ko: 미나는 기쁘게 받아들였다. "좋아요, 멋진 생각이에요!"En: Mina gladly accepted, "Yes, that's a great idea!"Ko: 그날 이후, 하늘은 일상에 변화를 주기로 결심했다.En: After that day, Haneul decided to make changes to his routine.Ko: 지수의 말처럼, 때때로 휴식이 필요하다는 것을 깨달았다.En: Like Jisoo said, he realized that a break was sometimes necessary.Ko: 미나도 새로운 만남에 설레며 홀로서기의 외로움을 덜어낼 수 있었다.En: Mina also found excitement in the new encounter, mitigating the loneliness of standing alone.Ko: 서울의 하늘 아래, 겨울 시장은 그들의 마음을 따뜻하게 녹였다.En: Under the Seoul sky, the winter market warmed their hearts.Ko: 그들의 이야기 시작은 별다를 것 없었지만 크리스마스의 기적처럼 느껴졌다.En: Although the beginning of their story was nothing out of the ordinary, it felt like a Christmas miracle.Ko: 이처럼 서울은 또 다른 사랑의 이야기를 만들어냈다.En: In this way, Seoul crafted yet another love story.

Think of the most powerful messages you've heard. Were they long or short?In this episode of Live the Bible, we're looking at a chapter of Scripture that proves we don't have to say a lot for our words to be powerful. I'm talking about 1 Corinthians chapter 13. In just thirteen short, inspired verses, Paul gets down to the essence of what it means to love. But is the kind of love Paul describes possible in a world of hurt?Again, the answer is short: YES. Support the show

In this empowering episode, coach Myrna delves into the often-unspoken reality of loneliness for women over 40 and challenges societal beliefs around love and companionship in midlife. She shares her personal story of overcoming odds and finding love not once, but twice, after turning 40. This narrative serves as a beacon of hope for many women who feel societal pressure and fear that love is no longer attainable after age 40.The episode addresses loneliness after 40 and the pervasive belief that finding love after 40 is impossible.  In this self-improvement for women topic, Myrna encourages listeners to redefine their narratives. She advocates for self-care through fitness, enhancing personal style, and nurturing intellectual interests to attract meaningful relationships. The discussion highlights the importance of understanding one's personal needs and priorities in relationships, emphasizing that every woman has the power to reshape her life's journey.Key Takeaways:Loneliness is not limited by age; it can be felt deeply by women over 40, yet it can also be a starting point for personal growth and rediscovery.Societal narratives often paint a grim picture for women seeking love after 40, but these can and should be challenged.Embrace self-improvement by staying physically fit and mentally stimulated, which can enhance attractiveness and confidence.Discover what truly makes you happy and embrace those activities to find companionship and shared interests with others.Notable Quotes:"Most women over 40 believe deep in our souls that if we don't have love at 40, it will never happen for us.""Being fine is the first thing you need to bring to the table. Give those young girls a run for their money.""Loneliness is not your final destination — it's a divine signal that your soul is craving deeper connection.""Your beauty shines from the inside out and men will be drawn to you!""Rediscover what lights you up. You're not the same woman you were 10 or 20 years ago — and that's a beautiful thing."Check out Myrna's Book on Finding Love and passion after Divorce  Out of The Snares: A Story of Hope and Encouragement To advertise on our podcast, visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/TransformyourMindor email kriti@youngandprofiting.com See this video on The Transform Your Mind YouTube Channel https://www.youtube.com/@MyhelpsUs/videosTo see a transcripts of this audio as well as links to all the advertisers on the show page https://myhelps.us/Follow Transform Your Mind on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/myrnamyoung/Follow Transform Your mind on Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100063738390977Please leave a rating and review on iTunes https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/transform-your-mind/id1144973094 https://podcast.feedspot.com/personal_development_podcasts/

MAC is not just another podcast, it's a way of life! We welcome Bridgette Martinez, a farmers insurance agent, who can help you in your insurance needs, but has a story of pain; that she turned to purpose. Bridgette shares a story that is impactful, from being so young, getting married, not much family support emotionally, financially yes, but emotional connection is needed, so important. So many of us didn't grow up hungry physically but did grow up hungry for love, for acceptance. We wanted to feel important or worth our parents time. Which like I said, we got their sacrifice, hard work but not emotional / feelings connected. She shares the impact of seeking “Freedom” at a young age, but that quickly came with feeling lonely, controlled, manipulated and lost; definitely not free. She had her children(which she deeply loves), became a wife, mother, and employee but lacked self identity and love. But know she feels a calling upon her life, shared after years of tribulations, heartbreaks, disappointments, she can see God's hand upon her life, a calling to serve and give back to her community, to help those around her, and one way is by saving people on insurances, but more importantly, by connecting with her story, and helping others find themselves. Any questions you may have for my guest or myself, please ask, reach out, comment, email, DM… (just ask, stop letting fear stop you) My email is Themaceffect19@gmail.com for all questions and inquiries. You are not alone; We share together, walk together and heal together, Amen!

In this episode, Kelly dives into the messy and magical world of modern dating with Ilana Dunn. From becoming Hinge's unexpected social media voice to launching Dating Sucks, Ilana opens up about heartbreak, self-worth, friendship breakups, and letting go of the "what if" with an ex. This conversation is real, grounding, and a reminder we all need  because the moment you choose yourself, everything about love begins to change. [3:20] My Hinge Story "I ended up being the only person they interviewed for the role and overnight I became the face of hinge on social media." [7:16] The Start of Dating Sucks "So I just wrote down "dating is hard", like as a temporary name, and I had a meeting with my project management team… And I was just like, "dating sucks." They responded: "I like it, we're gonna do that." [11:24] The Side Effects of Love "There's no magic pill to cure a broken heart as amazing as modern medicine is." [20:01] Non-Negotiable Self "I value time with myself and I value myself and if somebody doesn't see these things and like them about me, then I don't need that person." [25:28] Repetition Trap "You repeat behaviors over and over, and you are responsible for a lot of the pain that you are causing yourself." [33:38] Unmuting Yourself "There's nothing wrong with caring or wanting things or having something to say and saying it." [42:04] The Myth of Instant Chemistry "Not every 1st date has to be fireworks." [51:36] Beyond the Bio "Just give people more of you. What is it like to actually date you? What are the types of places they would go? What are the things they would do? You know, is family in important to you?" [59:28] No Rings but Still Stings "Friendship breakups can be more painful than romantic breakups, because it feels like something has to really go wrong for a deep friendship to break apart." [1:07:06] Tough Times with True Friends "Life is hard. relationships are hard. But, like, hold your friends close and just be as honest as you can." [1:14:28] The Unhealthy Anchor "There's always the what if, you know, with an Ex. You got to see it through, and you got to see that it didn't work.

We also discuss their book, Archives of the Paranormal: Case Files from The Paranormal Couple's Haunted Museum, which collects some of their most fascinating cases and experiences with haunted relics. Along the way, we explore: -The story of the doll that wouldn't stay gone. -Why not everything “haunted” is negative. -What it's like to fall in love while ghost hunting. -How haunted objects can sometimes comfort rather than terrify. -Why respect — not provocation — is the key to investigating the unknown. Whether you're fascinated by cursed relics, intrigued by haunted love stories, or curious about the reality behind Ghost Hunters and TAPS, this conversation offers a unique peek into the lives of two investigators whose passion for the paranormal is matched only by their love for each other.
