I Have a Dick So I Make the Rules

The last few weeks have been heavy. Work stress, co-parenting stress, emotional stress… just one of those seasons where it feels like everyone needs something from you while you’re quietly trying to hold it all together. And this week, I realized something about myself: I’m really good at surviving alone. But I’m terrible at asking for help. In this episode, I talk about what happened when I finally admitted, out loud, “I can’t do this right now,” and someone stepped in without judgment and simply said, “I got you.” We’re also talking about: why being “the strong one” gets exhausting learning to trust people enough to let them show up for you why I booked myself a reset trip and how my son’s basketball team accidentally became the motivational lesson I didn’t know I needed Because sometimes growth doesn’t look like winning. Sometimes it looks like showing back up after getting absolutely destroyed the first time. Also included: some truly horrifying dating profiles a man who proudly announced “I have a dick, I make the rules” and my concern that men never emotionally evolve, even at 69. It’s reflective, chaotic, funny, emotional… and honestly probably one of the realest episodes I’ve recorded in a while. Sign up to see the pics! www.flirtinafterforty.com
