I miss you. There seems to be a theme developing with summer reruns. Hope you're getting a chuckle out of it. Welcome to Episode 177 of Love, Sex & Tarot — formerly known as Whispering Moon! This episode marks an exciting rebrand and a new chapter, with host diving into the big name change, what it means for the show's growth, and why letting go of the sentimental can open doors to something even better. Find us on all social media platforms at @LoveSexAndTarot. This week's charm love reading features vampire teeth, a shell, a cat with a ball, and a spider — and the cards are talking. From secret soulmate connections and divine masculine energy navigating divorce, to sexual compatibility readings dripping with tension and desire, the tarot doesn't hold back. Topics include baby mama drama, healing from betrayal, understanding your partner's past relationship trauma, and learning to embrace radical self-love. The episode also explores generational differences in communication and ghosting, a candid discussion on why millennials struggle with conversational etiquette — and what older generations can teach us about respect and closure. And then… things get spicy. Inspired by a viral conversation about truly satisfying your partner, we go deep (pun intended) on anal play, prostate stimulation, and the art of the finger bang — with a hilarious, no-nonsense breakdown that will have you equal parts laughing and taking notes. This week's sexy assignment: watch gay porn to learn technique. Seriously. The episode wraps with a powerful message on radical self-love, daily orgasms, and knowing your own body before you can share it with someone else.

Neal Bawa - Grocapitus and MultifamilyU On Using the Right Tools to Make Good Decisions: "I said, I'm going to mine as much data as possible and try to get insights from that data." Many investors use real estate investing as an investment vehicle in their portfolio.  Most of those investors are looking at their local real estate market and trying to find deals that can pump out the returns they want. But the world is smaller now, and real estate investing in your backyard is no longer necessary.  You can invest hundreds of miles away and possibly turn over a stronger margin.  The way to find the best place to invest, starts with gathering data and comparing places. Neal Bawa, known widely as the "mad scientist of multifamily," is the engineer turned real estate investor that combines his knowledge of real estate, data science, and artificial intelligence. Neal shares his unconventional journey from running a successful tech company to revolutionizing real estate investing through data-driven decisions and AI-powered tools. Neal weathered the housing crash of 2008, built a thriving syndication business and a free educational community at MultifamilyU. Listen as Neal teaches us how to be fascinated by real estate, curious about the AI revolution, and to seek new ways to scale and automate your business. Enjoy!

Greater than the invention of the wheel, greater than the invention of fire, greater than the invention of the personal computer and the Internet put together. We have never seen anything of this Type. The smartphone wasn't even 1% of the AI revolution. And we think of the smartphone as the greatest invention of our times. It's nothing compared to AI. James [00:00:37]: You have found Authentic Business Adventures, the business program that brings you the struggle stories and triumphant successes of business owners across the land.

And today we're welcoming, preparing to learn from Neil Bawa of Growcapitus. I'm told, Neil, you are the mad scientist of multifamily. Is that true? Neal Bawa [00:01:10]: It's a moniker I present at many conferences. So I presented at over 101 of the times when I was walking up to the stage, they were announcing and talking about me. The announcer said, the mad scientists of multifamily. And that got a nice gasp out of the audience and I was like, I like this. And so the next year I went to the conference, he introduced me as a mad scientist. And then eventually I was like, people like this concept because it helps them understand that I'm data driven. I'm very AI focused. And so it's an interesting moniker. Neal Bawa [00:01:41]: I don't have the dark brown hair, but I mean that's how I roll. So I let it be and eventually it became part of our story. James [00:01:51]: That is incredible. So tell me the story. How did you end up with the moniker of the mad scientist of multifamily? That's not something people throw randomly around. Neal Bawa [00:02:00]: Yeah, so look, I'm not a real estate guy, not a real estate royalty. No one in my family is in real estate. I'm a technologist. I'm from India, came here as a computer scientist. Data science is my area of interest. I'm an amateur data scientist, but my degree is in computer science and I ran a tech company from 1999 to 2013. Very successful, not a start up, you know, hundreds of employees. And we sold it in 2013. Neal Bawa [00:02:28]: And my interest in real estate started when the senior partner in the firm, I was a junior partner, basically said in 2003, we are not going to rent, we are going to build our own campus. And this wasn't a multifamily campus at that time. It was an office campus for a business. And, you know, we had 150 employees, and we were renting from somebody. And he didn't like that. So he, under his guidance and his expert advice, I built the first campus in 2003. We took 12 months to build it. We had no investors. Neal Bawa [00:03:00]: We had no bank. It was just all cash. We built it ourselves because the business was quite profitable. At the end of that process, I realized just the extraordinary, shockingly high benefits that you get when you use depreciation, Right? Cause this big campus, 27,000 square feet, and I just all of a sudden was making. Taking a lot more money home. I wasn't making more money. I was just taking a lot more money home because the depreciation of that building was phenomenal. And that got me hooked into real estate. Neal Bawa [00:03:30]: Because at one time, I remember after that building was done, James, I remember saying to my wife, I think real estate is the best authorized tax scam in America. Now, obviously, I didn't know depreciation back then. I didn't understand accounting. Now I understand that there's nothing scammy about it. You know, depreciation is a legitimate right. And you take it for real estate. You can also take it for other things. But for real estate, it's. Neal Bawa [00:03:56]: It's extremely beneficial compared to any other form of depreciation, any other business. And so I realized that I, you know, I had the big fat tax salary, and I was living in Taxifornia, so I was basically working for the man. 50% of my salary was going to state and federal. And so I said, I need to find a way around this, because I read a book by Robert Kiyosaki, and I remember the statement, it's not what you make, it's what you keep. Right? And I was like, I ain't keeping much of my salary. So I was like, okay, I need to get into real estate. So I went back to my boss and said, you know, what we did with this campus was really great. Let's do it again. Neal Bawa [00:04:31]: And so we built a bunch more campuses. I think four or five campuses were built and improved coming up to 2008. And so each year, what would happen is I was keeping more and more of my income because of all the depreciation that I was getting. And so I was saving and saving and saving. And so I'd ended up with, you know, pretty large amount of money by the time 2008 hit. And then when that happened, all of a sudden, property values plummeted. They went down. And so I would go to, you know, my family events and everyone would just bash real estate. Neal Bawa [00:04:58]: Everyone's like, this is horrible. Don't buy real estate. It's horrible, horrible. It's going to crash. You know, it's worth nothing, blah, blah, blah. And you can imagine everyone was saying that because, you know, all the television, on the tv you're just hearing bad news, bad news. Every day it's bad news. It can only go down further. Neal Bawa [00:05:11]: You know, millions and millions of homes are in foreclos. And I'm like, I don't understand this. I don't understand. I mean, I'm from the Warren Buffett school of investing, which is, you know, when things are cheap, you buy them. So I'm like, but I don't want to make a mistake. You know, I have this money, this, that I've saved up over the last five or six years. I want to go out and buy as many single family homes as I can. But I don't want to make a mistake. Neal Bawa [00:05:34]: What if I'm just an idiot that knows nothing? So I decided that I would basically educate myself. And I did that in the typical way that, you know, technologists and engineers do. I said, I'm going to mine as much data as possible and try to get insights from that data. So I started mining websites like Bureau of Labor Statistics and Zillow and Trulia and Redfin and you know, all these other sites that realtor.com that you've heard about in the real estate area. And I'm mining gigabytes of data and putting them into a statistical analysis software called R. The software is R and statisticians know it. And you know what R does? It makes it easy for you to take huge amounts of data that you know nothing about and give you insights, right? These days, AI does it and it even does it better than the software. But back then there was no AI. Neal Bawa [00:06:23]: So the software would give you insights, it would give you correlation. So you could say something like, show me real estate profits that are made in this city and this city and this city and correlate that real estate profit with these various things that I'm looking at. What is the highest correlation? Is the correlation of profits highest to population growth or job growth or income growth or home price growth or crime reduction or schools. Where's the correlation? The connection? The biggest, right? And then based on that correlation,...

Tarot/Charm Readings: The host delivers three charm readings — Bird, Vampire Teeth, and Money Sign — framed as personalized readings where listeners assign each symbol to someone in their love life (a crush, ex, or romantic option).

Happy Mother's Day!

In Episode 170, Acacia pulls a relationship tarot spread packed with powerful soulmate energy — and the cards don't lie. Your overall energy is pure happiness and playfulness, but emotionally you're stuck in your head, convinced this connection is forbidden or doomed to end in heartbreak. Spoiler: the cards disagree. Your person is emotionally available and — wait for it — they literally think you're their soulmate. The obstacle between you two? You're ready to explode from pent-up emotions, and they're trapped in a mental prison, too afraid to make a move. The good news: the cards show them breaking their silence and reaching out, drawn by an almost otherworldly, telepathic pull that points straight toward commitment. Acacia dives into what's fueling that inner pressure cooker (hello, journaling card), why emotional decluttering — whether that's your home, your phone, or your situationships — is your secret weapon right now, and how faking happiness until you feel it is sometimes the only way through the hard stuff. She also reflects on listener gratitude, the real purpose behind the show, and why she keeps showing up every week for the community that actually gets it. Plus, the soulmate messages are BACK. All 13 zodiac signs get their own spicy, personalized message this week — because you deserve it, and because apparently it's great for SEO too.

Stop shrinking yourself to fit someone else's box. This episode flips the dating script: instead of asking "What's wrong with me?" we ask, "Who actually fits into my life?" Learn how to build a clear partner checklist based on your real routines, values, and quirks—from food compatibility to lifestyle pace—so you recognize the right person when they appear. Plus, a Taurus season deep-dive covering Taurus lovers, a tarot reading on divine timing and ghosting, and horoscopes for every sign. Whether you're need relationship advice, tarot guidance, or spiritual self-improvement, this episode helps you stop settling and start attracting your perfect match. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

Match Your Freak, Not Your Flame

In Episode 167 of Love, Sex & Tarot, host Acacia dives deep into the science of relationship maintenance with the "72-Hour Rule"—the chemical reality that intimacy (sexual or otherwise) needs to be rekindled every 72 hours to maintain the oxytocin bond between partners. Drawing from relationship science and personal anecdotes, Acacia explains why couples drift apart when they let emotional and physical gaps widen into "insurmountable chasms of silence," and provides actionable advice on how women can shift from passive recipients to active initiators of intimacy. The episode also features a tarot reading exploring financial struggles, the desire to move/escape past memories, and a passionate new connection with a King of Swords (Air sign) that promises long-term success and "sensory sex." Additional topics include: why women need to view sex as self-care rather than another chore, the importance of the female orgasm and communication around pleasure, and the study showing that just 47 minutes of daily quality time is the sweet spot for relationship satisfaction. The show wraps with a reminder about the ongoing tarot reading giveaway for listeners who leave a five-star review. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

From Rocket Launches to Secret Affections. Why Your Person Is Giving You the Silent Treatment (And Why You Should Take the Gamble Anyway) This episode launches with raw emotion: the host's tearful reaction to the Artemis moon mission, unpacking childhood trauma from the Challenger disaster, and why space exploration might be humanity's last hope for unity. But don't get too comfortable in the stars—she quickly brings it back to earth with hard-won COVID survival hacks (Benadryl at night, the "50-50" Tylenol method for kids) before diving deep into a relationship reading that'll hit you where it hurts. The spread reveals: A situationship stuck between social media obsession and real-world silence. Someone got triggered by another man. Someone else is "protecting themselves from emotional chaos." There's financial entanglement (child support? alimony?), secret/ sacred love energy, and a classic power move: the silent treatment as retaliation. Both parties want to escape the jealousy-fueled hell of online connection and take this thing into reality—but fear, anger, and past trauma have them negotiating in circles. The cards don't sugarcoat it: every relationship is a commitment to heartbreak. But the host challenges listeners to plan for the worst, hope for the best, and take the damn shot anyway. The payoff? Balanced, tempered, successful love—if you're brave enough to trust it. The love note reveals someone deeply moved by a recent surprise from the listener, describing a happiness so profound it made them "happy happy" — a rare, soul-level joy that has them smiling at every message and feeling genuinely safe. They're quietly building courage to approach in person but refuse to rush, treating the connection as "too valuable" to push or pressure. Both are caught in the "chop wood" busyness of daily life, yet there's mutual patience and a shared knowing that they've each learned hard lessons. The writer sees the listener as perfect exactly as they are, respecting their pace and sovereignty. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only. Make Good Decisions www.lovesexandtarot.com lovesexandtarot@gmail.com Socials: @lovesexandtarot Find me on YouTube and TikTok Key themes: twin flame vs. trauma bond, silent treatment psychology, social media jealousy, financial anxiety in relationships, fear of commitment, and calculated risk in love. Plus a sweet love note reading about someone building up the courage to approach you IRL.

Are you magnetically drawn to someone but completely stuck in your head about it? In Episode 165 of Love, Sex & Tarot, host Acacia dives deep into one of love's most paralyzing dilemmas — feeling a soulmate-level connection but letting fear of just a situationship, overthinking, and life's complications keep you from acting on it.

Breaking Free from Toxic People, Toxic Cycles & Toxic Relationships Are you constantly surrounded by toxic people — toxic friends, toxic family members, or toxic romantic partners — and wondering why you can't seem to break the cycle? In this week's episode, we get real about what it means to be an empath in a world full of energy vampires, users, and people who treat your life like their personal drama series. We dig into why kind, giving people attract toxic behavior, how childhood wounds and parental conflict can create repeating toxic relationship patterns, and — most importantly — how to set real boundaries that actually work. Spoiler: becoming “boring” might be your most powerful tool.

In this raw and intimate episode, I explore the intersection of digital overwhelm and human connection through the lens of a relationship tarot reading. I open with a call to step outside and absorb sunlight, a metaphor for the nourishment we're all starving for after months of winter isolation. The core tarot reading I walk through reveals a relationship dynamic where both parties are healing from past wounds, with the querent overcoming protective walls through observation and journaling, while the other brings a playful, childlike energy. The cards point toward an adventurous romantic getaway, and I emphasize that love is “worth the risk” despite the fear of vulnerability. In the latter half, I pivot into a mental health deep-dive about overstimulation in the digital age. Drawing parallels to the famous “Mouse Utopia” experiment, I argue that our collective retreat into isolation isn't about social anxiety—it's about sensory overload from AI-generated content, doom-scrolling, and algorithm-driven consumption. I challenge you to reclaim your humanity by disconnecting from devices, embracing authentic (imperfect) human voices, and recognizing that our current mental health crisis stems from environmental factors, not personal failure. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

In this episode, I'm diving into the Gen Z dating trend called “flocking” — intentionally traveling to hook up and meet new people — and honestly? I think they're onto something genius. I share a personal story about a missed connection with a cute single dad on a Canadian island ferry that still haunts me, and why we should all keep our phone numbers ready for those unexpected moments. I also defend Gen Z's intelligence against the “dumbest generation” narrative, break down a juicy relationship tarot reading about a complicated soulmate connection tangled up in family drama, and wrap it all up with some steamy zodiac sexy messages. (00:24:56) Bottom line: skip the dating apps this summer, grab a new bikini, and start planning your flocking adventure. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

Starting sexual conversations can feel silly or awkward, but it's a great way to get to know someone and their preferences. Especially at a distance, talking about what turns you on can cut through some of the unknowns in long-distance romance. The tarot reading this week was about the risks of long-distance dating and moving to an unknown place. I always go for it. Worst case, you move home or find a new life in a wonderful location. I end with questions to start sexual conversations since communication and sex continue to intertwine. What places do you want to get laid? What are you into? It's a good idea to ask yourself these questions first so you can write the most seductive answers possible—and for introspection, of course! ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

It is so hard to forgive betrayal, especially when it comes from someone you know. Far too often, that is the case with cheating; there's too much opportunity to pass it up, and cheating can become its own kink with the excitement of getting caught. However, ruminating over it all day long won't make you feel any better. Once you document it, you can tell your brain that we're going to digest it. We don't need to count the ways today. The best revenge is your happiness. This is actually a blessing in disguise. Thank God you know now and can move on with the life you're destined to have. I'll end with sexy messages. Thankfully, the winter mess is starting to thaw, and I'm already feeling the energy of the Year of the Horse! Onward and upward! ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

Going with the flow also means slowing down when you're fighting the flu. I tried very hard not to get sick, but our area was heavily affected. I'm doing much better now, and I'm currently writing content in my mind for next week's Aquarius season show! In the meantime, while I get over this very nasty bug, please enjoy some sex tarot fantasies from years ago. The world is in complete chaos, and it doesn't feel safe anywhere. Let's try to keep our minds on positive thoughts, kindness in our hearts, and be vigilant in our situational awareness as we traverse very hostile environments. Be safe, friends.

What's this year's theme? It's important to lighten your emotional load. This means limiting visual clutter, stopping negative self-talk, and getting quality rest! It's the Year of the Horse! We need to be rested to ride! This is a year of forward momentum. Stay positive! I'm going with the flow, and this week's tarot reading carries a message for you! (00:09:48) They may be putting on a happy face, but they are pretending because they feel trapped; however, they are focused on you. This is your soulmate, and it's hot!

'Tis the season of forced rest. It's time to find your granny hobby, heating blanket, fuzzy socks, and chill. It's a time for planning—a time to visualize the summer you wish to have! In this week's tarot reading, the gears (00:05:41) are moving. If you're waiting for a relationship to fail, it's in the cards. There's lots of chemistry, but emotionally it's not the right time for them. Move on for now, because this longing is toxic for you. It might also help the situation. This week's introspection focuses on how your parents' relationship affects your view on love. I'll end with sexy messages from your future soulmate!

Happy New Year! It's time to rest after the holiday finale that is Christmas. This year, rest is our priority, and with that, we will have the energy to achieve our goals. This is the perfect time of year to start planning the framework to climb toward your goals from the comfort of your favorite chair and blanket. I'll start my “flow state” adventure as it's my goal this year to let the show flow into success. With the turn of the zodiac, I will discuss each zodiac sign at the beginning of its season during our horoscope show. It feels right to showcase each zodiac sign in its strength and how it affects the season's themes and psychology. This week's love reading dealt with the anxiety that comes with searching for love in toxic environments. We are all wounded by our past; no one is perfect. It's important for you to lighten up and search for fun instead of fixating on the soulmate you've built in your mind. Don't ignore your anxiety; intuition uses your body's nervous system to cut through the monkey brain and desires based on your hormones. And, of course, we end with Capricorn season horoscopes. ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

Everyone is afraid of rejection. Attraction equals attention. Do they pay attention to you? That's a big sign to begin the process of gauging interest in friendship. "Gaslighting" has gotten a bad reputation, but in the context of finding out if they like you back, it's a safer way to speed things up. If you get ghosted, then that's your sign it's a no-go, but it also ends the longing for something that may never happen. It shortens the game and gets you onto the next crush. This week, I talk about expressing interest without losing your mind. This is our final segment of Tarot for Singles. We'll end with sexy messages from your future soulmate. (00:50:15) I'll be back with fresh tarot for New Year's! ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.

Let's talk about Starting Over.Making decisions is hard enough. But what happens when you're making decisions in a season where you feel completely unqualified? When you're a beginner literally feel like you're starting over again. In this episode of The Driven Introvert Podcast, we continue reading through The Next Right Thing by Emily P. Freeman, and today we're sitting with a simple but powerful truth: It's okay to be a beginner.I share what it looked like for me when I was starting over — from moving to a new country and stumbling through cultural differences, to building a product in an industry where I have zero experience. These stories might feel familiar if you've ever:Avoided asking for help because you didn't want to seem cluelessFaked confidence in a new job, project, or roleHeld back from trying something because you didn't feel “ready”Been surprised at how hard it was to step into something you actually prayed forEmily reminds us that all beginnings come with both joy and grief. To be starting over and beginning something new often means leaving something behind. Whether your current season is one you chose or one you didn't ask for, you can still move forward — and you don't have to pretend to know everything.This is personal growth for introverts. Let's talk about making big decisions a faith driven entrepreneur.   I hope this episode encourages you to be gently honest with yourself, to ask for the wisdom you need, and to remember that admitting “I don't know yet” is a decision rooted in courage, not weakness.Support the showContact Us Ask a question or leave a comment, visit shepact.com/voicemail Follow me on Instagram at instagram.com/remiroy Email us: thedrivenintrovert@shepact.com Enjoying the podcast?

I just don't understand the Scorpio hate. Personally, I've seen Leos do more damage.

New love will be on your horizon by the next season after filing for divorce. Libra and Scorpio had the best horoscopes this season. (00:31:42) Make sure to check yours out!

What does sexual wellness mean? It's fundamentally about communication. It involves discussing your sexual health, including the disclosure of STDs, your flexibility and comfort with different sexual positions, your kinks, your birth control methods, and your libido or the frequency of your desire for sex. I also delve into the frequency of your orgasms. The health benefits of frequent orgasms have yet to be fully studied. We know they provide a super boost of healthy chemicals, but we don't fully understand the lasting effects emotionally, psychologically, or physically, especially concerning menopause. It's a muscle worth training. In the weekly relationship reading, we discuss competing for a high-value partner and what to do when they are being pursued by others as well. It's a third-party situation, and I transition into a conversation about golf, using metaphors related to hazards and letting loose women play through. Was it a hole in one? I don't know. Ultimately, it's about what brings you joy. It's time to make your sexual well-being a priority, which means doing pelvic floor exercises, using protection, and establishing a regular self-care sexual routine where you don't just focus on your steps, but also on achieving orgasms! ⚠️ These are performances and for entertainment purposes only.
