Why Our Birthdays Don’t Feel the Same, And How to Change That

Do you look forward to your birthday or secretly dread it?

In this uplifting episode, Dominique sits down with author and life coach Tamar Hurwitz-Fleming to explore the surprising depth and meaning behind birthdays and why they can be a powerful tool for self-love and life reflection.

Tamar shares her personal journey from disappointing birthdays in childhood to discovering how to create joy-filled celebrations that align with the heart, soul, and spirit. Drawing from her book How to Have a Happy Birthday, Tamar offers practical tips to plan the day you truly want, avoid “birthday sabotage,” and embrace your birthday as your own personal New Year.

In this episode, Dominique and Tamar discuss:

• Why many people secretly dislike their birthdays
• How childhood experiences shape adult birthday expectations
• The difference between a “festive” and a “fulfilling” birthday
• Practical strategies for creating the celebration you want
• Why milestone birthdays feel so significant
• Budget-friendly ways to honor yourself
• How birthdays can be spiritual “portals” for connection and reflection
