DJ Valerie B LOVE Podcast

Full post, transcript & show notes: https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/bitcoin-art-magazine-is-fire-unboxing-the-genesis-edition-why-art-matters  Happy New Year, LOVE Tribe! In this kickoff episode, I unbox the Genesis edition of Bitcoin Art Magazine and celebrate the artists, culture, and community that make Bitcoin feel like magic. From shout-outs to Fractal Encrypt and Sovereign Remnant to reflections on how art, music, and human connection shape our world, I share why supporting physical art matters in a digital age and how Bitcoin’s truth, beauty, and permanence inspire hope. We touch on freedom of expression, code as speech, and the importance of building things that last—while setting intentions for the year ahead. My word of the year is “blessing,” and I invite you to choose yours as we design a brighter life, bit by bit. Join me in honoring the Genesis block anniversary, exploring powerful Bitcoin-inspired works, and committing to create, connect, and uplift our communities. Here’s to a year of art, courage, and warm aloha—buckle up, buttercups!Grab your copy today!

Full episode with transcript and show notes: https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/rejection-is-gods-protection-redirectionIn this solo episode, I open up about a recent dark night of the soul triggered by massive rejection—and how I’m working with it in real time. I share the spiritual reframe that’s been saving me: rejection as God’s protection and redirection. I explore practical ways to self-coach your inner child, become the DJ of your mind, and assign new, empowering meaning to the past while standing in faith during the in‑between. I also offer a peek into the evolving 11x LOVE Code and the bite‑size practices I’m creating to help you stay grounded through messy times, reminding you that you are chosen and loved—always—by the Divine.I touch on navigating triggers, the quiz‑test‑final cycle of growth, and how to stay gentle with yourself when old patterns resurface. If you’re moving through breakups, career pivots, or life’s unexpected shake‑ups, this episode is a hug, a hype track, and a holy reminder that something magical often follows a big fat no. Stay connected for updates on the 11x LOVE Code workshop, book, and upcoming practices designed to help you rewrite your code and design your future with faith and courage.

Full episode with transcript and show notes: https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/bitcoin-financial-planning-families-morgen-rochardIn this heart-to-heart, I sit down with Morgen Rochard—mom of three, founder of Origin Wealth Advisors, Bitcoiner, author, and podcast host—to explore the intersection of motherhood, money, and Bitcoin. Morgen shares how becoming a parent reshaped her business, inspired a family-first practice culture, and strengthened her approach to delegation and client service. We trace her path from Wall Street to independent wealth management and into Bitcoin—why her conviction grew gradually, how she began advising clients in 2016, and why she believes Bitcoin’s store-of-value phase naturally precedes broader medium-of-exchange adoption. We dive into practical personal finance: saving, behavioral money scripts, family meetings, age-appropriate responsibility, and teaching kids with hands-on money experiences. Morgen unpacks planning trade-offs (homes, cars, travel) and how to design resilient retirement strategies amid volatility—planning to age 100, managing sequence-of-returns risk, and aligning decisions with values. She also previews her next book on Bitcoin personal finance and offers compassionate encouragement to overwhelmed parents: start small, keep learning, and focus on progress over perfection.https://x.com/MorgenRochardhttps://www.originwa.com/Grab a Copy of Morgen's Book "Personal Finance QuickStart Guide: The Simplified Beginner’s Guide to Eliminating Financial Stress, Building Wealth, and Achieving Financial Freedom (Personal Finance - QuickStart Guides)"https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08LBQGWSP/ (00:00:32) Introductions, motherhood juggle, and the "octopus mama"(00:01:56) Quality time with kids, independence, and parenting balance(00:04:25) How motherhood reshaped business, delegation, and firm culture(00:08:29) Leaving big banks to build a family-centered wealth practice(00:10:08) From aspiring doctor to Austrian economics and markets(00:13:32) Early Bitcoin exposure, safety concerns, and meeting Pierre Rochard(00:17:02) Advising on Bitcoin: cautious conviction and client adoption(00:20:57) Risk, Sharpe ratio, and Bitcoin’s maturation(00:22:56) Store of value before medium of exchange; path to unit of account(00:26:49) Taxes, circular economies, and easing people into custody(00:32:39) Morgan’s Personal Finance Quick Start Guide and behavior(00:36:06) Money scripts, trauma, and realistic optimization(00:38:41) Home, nesting, and the art of financial tradeoffs(00:41:35) Planning with volatility: sequence risk and runway in retirement(00:47:20) Longevity assumptions: why plan to age 100 (or beyond)(00:50:09) Lifestyle, meaning, and practical wellbeing in later life(00:51:19) Teaching kids money: chores, responsibility, and limited screens(01:00:40) Family finance education ideas and five-bucket frameworks(01:05:36) Allowances, cash vs. digital, saving and charity habits(01:11:32) Purpose, values, and planting seeds over prescriptions(01:15:43) Encouragement for overwhelmed parents and where to find Morgan(01:18:54) Final reflections: small steps, resources, and goodbyes❤️  Join the LOVE Tribe for Free!https://djvalerieblove.com/subscribe  SUPPORT THE SHOW WITH V4V TIPS - Thank You! https://djvalerieblove.com/contribute   SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTYOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@djvaleriebloveWEBSITE: https://djvalerieblove.com/podcastFOUNTAIN.FM: https://fountain.fm/show/761jhxFiibErm7eZZdltAPPLE: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/dj-valerie-b-love-podcast/id1441540841SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/6kZfzFZ3wKmWiljDajrJZ5?si=a9433473b06f464bRUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/c-6698813RSS: https://serve.podhome.fm/rss/4996bcea-e098-5a89-ac63-af7a3df7cb5d  FOLLOW DJ Valerie X: https://x.com/djvaleriebloveNOSTR: https://primal.net/djvaleriebloveSUBSTACK: https://djvalerieblove.substack.com/FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/djValerieBLoveINSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/djvalerieblove/LINKEDIN: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dj-valerie-b-love/  DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE TOOLS START9 - 5% OFF - Run a Node https://store.start9.com/discount/LOVEBITCOIN MENTOR - FREE consult for self-custody https://bitcoinmentor.io/aff/love/  AUDIBLE - Get 2 FREE Audiobooks https://www.audibletrial.com/bitcoinSHAMORY - Have Fun Learn Bitcoin 10% Discount  shamory.com/loveSATSBACK - Get Bitcoin rewards when you shop https://satsback.com/register/Ezv2VLwKXgLd8X4Z DJ VALERIE’S FAVORITE EVENTShttps://www.adoptingbitcoin.org/https://btcplusplus.dev/https://baltichoneybadger.com/https://bitblockboom.com/https://unconfiscatable.com/https://bitcoinunconference.com/https://afrobitcoin.org/https://oslofreedomforum.com/https://denver.space/  BUY, TRADE, STORE, MINE BITCOINHODL HODL no KYC https://hodlhodl.com/join/NMKLQ RIVER FINANCIAL Buy Bitcoin Safely -Get Up to $100 in FREE Bitcoin https://partner.river.com/LOVE TREZOR - Get 10% OFF Trezor 5.0 and Onboarding Call https://affil.trezor.io/SHcTCOLDCARD Discount 5%- Promo Code “PEACE”  store.coinkite.com/promo/PEACESAZ MINING - Get $50 OFF your Bitcoin Mining Order https://app.sazmining.com/purchase?ref=DJVALALTAIR TECH - Get 1% OFF - Code "LOVE" - Mine Bitcoin and HEAT your home https://altairtech.io/  DJ VALERIE'S FAVORITE IDEASWHAT IS VALUE FOR VALUE? - ADAM CURRY https://value4value.info/about/

In this candid, empowering conversation, I sit down with menopause strategist Marjie Martini to bring light, language, and laughter to a phase too many women are told to just endure. Marjie unpacks her decade-long journey—misdiagnoses, brain fog, bleeding crises, a lifesaving hysterectomy, and ultimately thriving with tailored bioidentical hormones and lifestyle shifts. We walk through her Five Pillars—hormones, nutrition, exercise, sleep, and stress (plus the bonus: community)—and how to approach change without overwhelm by focusing on one lever at a time. From sleep rituals and protein-forward meal prep to cortisol-calming tactics, partner support, and navigating care options and costs, this episode is a practical roadmap to reclaiming wellbeing across a 10–15 year transition that’s different for every woman.We also discuss why “maintenance is cheaper than repair,” the cognitive and bone-health implications of declining estrogen, the nuances of lab testing and finding the right hormone doctor, and why tools must evolve as you do. Marjie shares resources, real client wins, and concrete strategies for women—and their partners—to reduce stigma, advocate at work, and make menopause not just bearable, but a season to play, lift heavy, love big, and lead with fewer f*cks given about the noise and more care for ourselves and each other.

Full episode with transcript and show notes: https://www.djvalerieblove.com/post/my-strange-tribute-charlie-kirk In this heartfelt solo episode, I open up about navigating fear, faith, and free speech in a turbulent moment. From an independent, nonpartisan lens, I reflect on why I felt called to speak, honoring the courage of using one’s voice in public—especially across differences—and paying tribute to Charlie Kirk’s campus dialogues and commitment to debate, even when I didn’t agree with him. I explore why the First Amendment matters, the responsibility that comes with speech, and the importance of listening to young people, context, and full arguments rather than headlines. I also share candidly about self-censorship, the pressure to conform, and my personal commitment to speak more boldly with compassion.

In this spontaneous episode, I dive into the concept of integrating spiritual practices into our daily lives, transforming them from isolated moments into a continuous, all-day experience. Inspired by the idea of reframing empty moments into intentional, meaningful ones, I explore how small actions and affirmations can connect us more deeply with the divine and enhance our overall well-being. Whether it's through meditation, prayer, or simply expressing gratitude during mundane tasks, the goal is to cultivate a constant state of mindfulness and connection.Additionally, I share exciting updates about upcoming projects and events, including the launch of the 'Seven Days of Love Experiment' and my participation in the Bitcoin conference in Las Vegas, where I'll be discussing the empowering role of Bitcoin in combating human trafficking. I invite listeners to join these initiatives and reflect on how they can extend their spiritual practices throughout their day, fostering a more compassionate and critically thinking world. Join me in this journey of love, awareness, and action.

In this episode, we embrace the arrival of spring, despite the lingering cold and snow. I share a personal reflection on the "spin cycle" of repetitive thoughts that can disrupt our peace of mind. Drawing from a conversation with a dear friend, I explore how unresolved emotions can manifest as these recurring thoughts, much like shoes clunking in a dryer. I discuss the importance of acknowledging these feelings and consciously shifting from a "spin cycle" to a "love cycle" by focusing on positive outcomes and acceptance.Additionally, I introduce a free "love experiment" featuring seven powerful songs that have helped me elevate my mood and pursue my dreams. I also share my recent involvement with an orphanage in El Salvador, supporting girls who have survived human trafficking and abuse. This initiative aims to empower these young survivors with life skills and financial literacy, including the use of Bitcoin, to help them build a secure future. Join me in celebrating spring by planting something new and embracing the season of growth and renewal.
