Do you need a midlife sabbatical? An interview with Rachel Lloyd

What would a tarot card reader need to say for you to make a seismic change in your life? For Rachel Lloyd, the tarot card reader said exactly what she had been thinking-quietly and privately. Hearing the words out loud was the catalyst that Rachel needed to make the huge decision to leave her job when she was at the absolute top of her career. Rachel didn't leave for another corporate opportunity or even another career path. She left to breathe and to think, to be present-a true midlife sabbatical. I can't wait for you to hear Rachel's story. I am sure it will undoubtedly inspire you to take a good hard look at your own life. I know it has for me.

The conversation you should be having? It’s about money. Money Tales with Cammie Doder and Sandi Bragar

Shame, guilt, fear…these are just some of the emotions that unconsciously come up for people when they think about money. Our feelings about money are so rooted in our formative years. Today on the podcast, Aspiriant partners Sandi Bragar and Cammie Doder are encouraging us to have more candid conversations about money. I loved hearing Sandi and Cammie share their “money tales”, and I talk too about my personal scarcity mindset that stems from my childhood where money was indeed scarce.
Women especially have missed out on having a seat at the table and being part of the money conversation. Today we are welcoming more women to join in on the money conversation. Truth be told money is knowledge-and it is also power. Most importantly, it’s a tool. It’s a tool to have freedom and to live out your dreams.
Combined Sandi and Cammie have 35 years+ of professional finance experience and they are also the hosts of the podcast Money Tales where intimate money conversations are happening each week with their guests.

From musical theater to yogi: An interview with Tori Hicks-Glogowski

Tori's story is the perfect reminder that purpose and passion are not stagnant. They ebb and flow and sometimes change. There's not one life purpose or one life passion. There are many. Tori shares how she went from a successful career in musical theater to a passionate yoga instructor. She talks about battling an eating disorder, spending 9 grueling days getting certified in Bikram yoga and how a dream and a book changed the path for her. 
Tori was a pioneer in offering online yoga programming and her business, Meet Me on Your Mat, continues to thrive in the online space. Tori prides herself in helping people take their yoga practice to the next level.

The roller coaster that is midlife: Jill Hoel and I talk about ”all the things” happening in midlife.

There's no way you won't relate to this conversation if you are a woman in midlife. Jill Hoel will instantly feel like your best friend who's stopped over for coffee-No topic is off limits. We talk about midlife health, the decade-long plague of perimenopause, shifting roles of motherhood in midlife, and starting new things in this second chapter. 
Somedays you feel like you have it all together, that you are killing it, and other days you just want to stay in bed watching Netflix. I think we can all agree that midlife is an incredibly reflective time in our lives as well as a gosh darn roller coaster. 
Jill also shares her history of infertility, adoption, and her child's autism diagnosis. She encourages us to look at our To Do List and instead of tackling it, scratch some things off it. Let them go! 
Tune into this incredibly real conversation on midlife--and life.
