In this episode, Dr. Spirit, a mental health expert, joins Stella to discuss the journey of aging and the importance of embracing it.

They emphasize the need for authenticity and meeting oneself as we age out loud. The conversation also touches on the challenges of balancing career and family as a woman, the importance of being present in the moment, and the power of collaboration over competition.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
