Get to know me and my approach as a life coach by listening to these podcasts
Here’s just a sample, not all, of the podcasts that have interviewed me over the last 12 years! This is a great way to get to know me and my work.
BTW, if you are not already subscribed to my newsletter, you should do it now! I send out conversations like this, so you’ll get alerted when there is a new one.
One Single Woman
This podcast with Pippa Brown, the creator of One Single Woman podcast, goes into a lot of soul questions that may be valuable for people who are asking questions about:
- Becoming a mother, or not
- Keeping our sexual energy alive: How do we not just let ourselves die on the vine if we are single for years, or in a sexless marriage?
- Aging as a single person
We get very honest! I recommend you listen.
If you are interested in getting support in your journey as a single person, or in your quirkytogether relationship, or with your sexuality, check out my life coaching page. Or you might be interested in Quirkyalone Group Coaching.
Shame-Free Sex
Don’t just walk… Pussywalk!
In this fabulous episode with Shame-Free Sex, I teach you how to cultivate and harness what I call “pussy energy” and use it for confidence, intuition, and empowerment in the workplace and life.
I created the Pussywalking Method for Female Confidence based on my 15 years of immersion in Argentine tango and the study of female sexual energy. I teach Pussywalking and Pussybreathing to my clients, especially women leaders in the tech space and other industries, who are looking to overcome imposter complex and develop authentic confidence in male-dominated spaces.

The Morning X in Atlanta
For a mood-lifter, here is something different and fun. Here is the Atlanta radio interview that I did about Britney Spears marrying herself.
- If you marry yourself, do you have to get a divorce before marrying someone else? Absolutely not! This kind of bigamy is completely allowed.
- In fact, when a person marries herself and another individual, this is probably the healthiest kind of marriage possible. I am increasingly shocked that the goverment gives people licences to marry other people before those people have married themselves!
- If you want life coaching support to explore the self-marriage (or soul commitment) process for yourself, you can reach out to me here.
Transforming Loneliness
Laura Parker interviewed me for her series on Transforming Loneliness. This is a powerful conversation about:
- Owning our own stories, whether we are doing it in writing or opening up on a date or in a relationship to share truly who we are, where we have been
- The positive impacts of healing childhood trauma and shame
- My own healing journey of healing my shame
Fuck Dating
Lindsay and Lani talked with me about my memoir WET! This is the one to listen to to get the lowdown on the memoir I have been working on since 2012!
You’ll hear about:
- My immersion in Brazilian culture–the return to sensuality that Rio evoked in me, and for many people
- The value of cultivating more pleasure in our lives (what is pleasure for?)
- The backstory of what this book is really about. TW: talking about childhood trauma.
Nomadtopia
Amy Scott helps people to make nomadic lifestyles work. She does Nomadtopia to inspire people to live differently, sharing stories from people who have made nomadic life work for them.
This podcast was recorded in 2014 when I was embarking on splitting time between Oakland, California, and Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Listen in for the authentic talk about making nomadic life work.
The New Story
Brilliant fellow Rhode Islander and former political insider in Washington, D.C., Dave Ursillo is like me, someone who once worked in more political realms, now working in the area of personal development. We talked for his podcast the New Story. This one is great to listen to for my career trajectory.
- Why I left a successful career in Silicon Valley to reconnect with my body in South America (the story that will be told in WET)
- Learning how to ask for what you want is about learning how to generate magic in the world
- Becoming your own best friend, and how this is a universal journey for all of us.
Virgin.Beauty.Bitch (VBB)
Christopher and Heather of Virgin.Beauty.Bitch are absolutely fantastic. You have got to listen to this one too! It’s really interesting to have a man and two women talking about the pressures that women face, and how we can free ourselves.
We talk about:
- Social pressure to hit certain milestones by certain ages
- Why a big part of my message is about inspiring women to connect with their bodies and pleasure for their empowerment
- What turned-on living means to me
Spinsterhood Reimagined
Lucy Meggeson is a kindred spirit from London. Her podcast has really grown in popularity. She helps single, childfree women realize that life can be awesome when it doesn’t follow a traditional path.
We talk about:
- How I finally found peace in not becoming a mother, and appreciate my life on its own terms, after years of struggle with that topic
- My relationship history
- How I help women clients get clear about what they really want
- How I draw on tango and my mindfulness practice pussywalking to help my clients step into their power
Solo
Dr. Peter McGraw is a behavioral economist at the University of Colorado.
I have done many fantastic podcasts about quirkyalone with women. This was the first time I talked with a man!
Peter and I chatted about:
- the problem of “internalized inferiority” for single people
- why I prefer to talk about self-acceptance, self-compassion, and wholeness rather than being a “happy single”
- The choice of the word quirky, why?
Maybe Someday
I was delighted to be invited as a guest on Sarah Dobson’s podcast Maybe Someday. Maybe Someday is about ambivalence: specifically ambivalence about the question of motherhood.
Motherhood ambivalence has been a taboo topic in the past and we are bringing it out in the light in this conversation!
