This one is for every woman who has hit December (again) thinking, “What the fuck am I doing with my life?”In this episode of Finding My Big Girl Pants, we talk about that gut-punch feeling of looking back at the past year and realizing you’re still in the job that’s killing you, still in the body you don’t feel at home in, still in the relationship you’ve outgrown… and still telling yourself, “Next year will be different.”This is your tough-love New Year’s hug and slap in one.
In this episode we dive deep into the messy truth about relationships: why marriage is statistically a disaster, why so many couples quietly fall apart, why intimacy matters more than most of us admit, and why being present with your partner is the sexiest thing you can bring into the bedroom. Inspired by James Sexton’s brutally honest book, we’re talking effort, spark, desire, confidence, the famous “man flowers” (aka blowjobs), and how to keep connection alive.
This week’s episode is brought to you by Mercury-in-retrograde-level chaos, bad sleep, and one very life-changing bob. I talk about how cutting my hair didn’t just change my face, it changed my identity, my confidence, and the way I move through the world when I’m no longer performing for the male gaze. We go into why so many of our choices – careers, bodies, hair, even sex – quietly orbit around being “chosen,” and what happens when you flip the script and start asking one simple question instead: Do I actually like this? If you’re in your 20s, 30s or 40s drowning in shitty jobs, shitty relationships, body pressure and auditioning for love, this is your reminder that the real prize at the end of the tunnel is you.
You send me questions and I answered. We cover how I ended up back in Michigan, how to keep your sanity after leaving corporate, what to do with your money when math gives you hives, and why being single in your 30s is not a death sentence. It’s like a 30-minute voice memo to every woman in my inbox.
This week, we’re talking about women, sex, and the silent epidemic of faking it — bad sex, no sex, faked sex, and the kind that makes you scream his name. This episode is for every woman who’s ever felt unseen in bed, unheard in love, or unsure if she’s allowed to want more. Spoiler: you are and you can do it. Janina is sharing her story how she escaped a life that wasn't serving her - Twice
A messy, honest debrief: post-Vegas sickness, introvert recovery, why “Nobody Wants This” felt a little too familiar, the tiny acts that feel like love, and the bigger truth I kept avoiding — lying to myself about what I want in love and how I want to live. We talk sex, dating, men’s friendships, closure, and the courage to want the non-traditional. If you’ve ever faked an orgasm, swallowed your needs, or tried to be the “chill girl,” this one’s for you. Subscribe, share, and send to a friend who needs the nudge.
