Sex After 50 doesn't have to decline — in fact, for many people, it gets better. In this episode of Ask a Sex Therapist, Heather is joined by Karen Bigman, a sex and relationship coach specializing in midlife and sex after 50, for an honest, funny, and deeply validating conversation about aging, desire, body changes, and intimacy. They explore why so many couples assume that low libido, painful sex, or loss of desire is just “part of getting older” — and why that belief is often what actually harms a sex life the most. From menopause and perimenopause to body image, shame, communication, and emotional intimacy, this episode reframes sex after 50 as something that can be playful, connected, and deeply satisfying. You'll hear practical insights about: Why sex drive changes with age — and why that doesn't mean sex is overHow menopause, hormones, and vaginal health affect desire and pleasureWhy mental foreplay, laughter, and connection matter more than performanceHow to talk about sex with a partner when it feels awkward or intimidatingLetting go of obligatory sex and rebuilding pleasure without pressure Why kissing, novelty, and communication are essential for long-term intimacy This conversation is especially helpful for: People navigating midlife, perimenopause, or menopauseCouples wondering how to keep sex fun and connected after 50Anyone struggling with desire discrepancy, body confidence, or sexual shamePeople curious about sex and agingPartners who want to better support each other through aging and change If you've ever wondered whether great sex is still possible later in life, this episode offers reassurance, science-backed insight, and permission to stop forcing what doesn't work — and start enjoying what does.

Sometimes love doesn't feel broken — it just feels heavy.In this episode of the Spiritual Journey Podcast, Nimesh Radia and Stacey Brown explore what it really means when relationships carry emotional weight without a clear reason. Rather than rushing to fix or label what's happening, they invite listeners to consider that heaviness may be a soul lesson — one that isn't meant to be solved, but felt and integrated.Through personal reflections, spiritual insight, and energetic awareness, this conversation looks at how transitions, soul contracts, and inner shifts can change the way love feels. They speak honestly about the pressure to analyse emotions, the discomfort of not having answers, and the power of presence during uncertain phases.This episode is a gentle reminder that not every phase of love requires action. Sometimes the most supportive thing you can do is pause, care for yourself, and trust that clarity will arrive in its own time.Key Themes✨ When love feels heavy but nothing appears wrong ✨ Emotional weight as a soul lesson rather than a problem ✨ Relationships shifting during times of transition ✨ Soul contracts and deeper relational awareness ✨ Letting go of the need to fix, rush, or explainTakeaways✨ Heaviness doesn't automatically mean something is wrong ✨ Not every feeling requires immediate action or understanding ✨ Presence can be more powerful than problem-solving ✨ Self-care and solitude restore clarity ✨ Trust that insight unfolds when it's readySound Bites✨ When love feels heavy, it doesn't always mean something is wrong ✨ What if the lesson isn't meant to be fixed ✨ Sometimes clarity comes through patience, not answersAlso available to watch on YouTube.

Construction is the second leading industry for death by suicide, yet most leaders don't know how to recognize when someone's struggling or how to have those check-in conversations. Jessica Hallahan grew up in a household full of addiction and poverty, became a drug and alcohol counselor, then burned herself out at age 24 before founding Journey to Yourself to help individuals and teams build resilience. We explore how different generations approach mental health from boomers who view it as unnecessary (62% are skeptical according to SHRM) to Gen Z who reports the highest rates of mental health issues and takes the most time off. Jessica shares why the angry person might need help just as much as the sad one, how older generations actually did care about mental health by going to the bar to "comment" about work, and why bringing your whole 70% is better than pretending you're at 100% when you're not.HighlightsHighlights:How to spot when someone's really struggling versus just having a bad day by watching for behavior that's different from their typical pattern.Why accountability goes both ways where leaders need to check in but employees also need to communicate when they're struggling.The difference between using ADHD or other diagnoses as awareness versus excuses and what to actually do with that information.Creating open door policies that actually work by leaders modeling vulnerability about their own rough days instead of hiding behind closed office doors.Why Gen Z needs the "yes and" lesson where you can acknowledge bad days and still understand other people have their own struggles too.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for honest discussions about leadership challenges you're actually facing.

Most business owners are sitting here in early January without any real plan for 2026 because they're still trying to close out 2025. Steve makes the case for one single measurable outcome that determines a successful year while Brad pushes back with the reality of "we just want more" thinking. Using gross margin improvement as an example, we walk through how to get every department aligned on the same goal, why supplier accountability is an untapped opportunity, and how to turn objectives into 12-week strategies. We also tackle why leadership is hard when you actually have to make decisions, how the Hoshin planning system creates 81 squares of complexity nobody needs, and why squirrels with shiny objects will always try to derail your focus unless pet projects directly support your singular goal.Highlights:Why "we just want more" or "we want better" fails without defining what that actually means in measurable terms.The trust but verify approach to supplier invoices especially around tariff line items that might have been passed through five times.How employees come back with excuses about SAP tickets and IT problems when you give them nine goals instead of one clear focus.The danger of operating in a one-year vacuum where beneficial three-year projects get killed because they hurt this year's numbers.Why amazing things happen when you make actual decisions instead of living in "I'll think about it" mode that keeps everyone guessing.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more real conversations about running and growing your business.

Manufacturing has a storytelling problem and it's costing the industry talent to the skilled trades. Meaghan Ziemba, a technical writer with a master's degree who's been in the industry since 2008, got tired of watching male hosts ignore her suggestions to interview women in manufacturing. So she started Mavens of Manufacturing during the 2020 pandemic and has since interviewed over 200 women, creating a movement that's now bringing Gen Z into the industry through TikTok. We explore the broken rung theory keeping women stuck in their careers, why assumptions about family responsibilities block women from networking while men face no such barriers, and why communication breakdowns across genders, generations, and hierarchy levels keep shop floor workers out of strategic conversations where they could solve real problems.HighlightsThe broken rung theory where missing that first promotion opportunity creates a stagnant career path especially for women in manufacturing.How assumptions about women's family responsibilities exclude them from networking opportunities while the same assumptions don't apply to men.Gen Z isn't lazy but purpose-driven and tech-savvy enough to expect immediate results while wanting meaningful work.Communication breakdowns happen across genders, generations, and hierarchy levels when shop floor workers get excluded from strategic conversations.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more real conversations about running and growing your business.

You are not here by accident. Your light matters.

With Christmas less than a week away, we tackle one of the most uncomfortable conversations happening in blue collar businesses right now: the holiday bonus. What happens when bonuses have become an expectation rather than a reward? We talk through why delaying bad news creates disengagement, how to communicate with empathy when bonuses aren't happening, and the critical mistake of buying yourself a new Denali while telling employees there's no money for bonuses. Plus, we dive into the difference between base pay increases and true variable compensation, why you should never run bonuses through regular payroll, and how to set up incentive plans that actually motivate your team. Fair warning: We don't agree on everything in this one, but that's what makes it interesting.Highlights:Delaying the bonus conversation creates disengagement and actively encourages your best people to start job hunting during the holidays.The Denali problem where buying yourself a new truck to avoid taxes while canceling bonuses sends exactly the wrong message to your team.Why running bonuses through regular payroll can cost you hundreds in unexpected overtime calculations.The great debate on base pay increases versus variable compensation and which approach actually works for small to mid-sized organizations.Celebrate the wins because forgetting what happened in January through November means you're missing opportunities to build morale year-round.Subscribe to Blue Collar BS for more honest conversations about the tough leadership decisions you're facing right now.
