I'm the author of “Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go” and a somatic relationship coach. I love helping women divorce, heal, and date differently in midlife or any stage—women looking for more happiness, joy, freedom, and purpose.   If you are ready to find more authenticity within so you can reclaim the life you left behind somewhere between diaper changes and kids graduating from school, tune in!  Have you ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”  What’s life like as an empty nester? What's after divorce? How do I grieve the loss of a spouse who passed away? How do I date after a long relationship? How do I navigate being part of the sandwich generation? What is longevity and how do I take better care of myself as I age? How do I heal my trauma with somatic experiencing? How do I simply find more happiness and joy in my daily life? Then this podcast is for you! I'm a mother of four adult daughters, a divorcée, and a recovering caregiver. My podcast, Confessions of a Freebird, is your midlife best friend. On this podcast, I'll offer actionable steps, coaching tips, soulful thoughts, somatic tools, and feature experts to help you with all things midlife and beyond. We will talk about sex, dating, divorce, loss, grief, midlife reinvention and empowerment, finances and so much more. I also share my confessions and successes that have helped me intentionally redesign my life so you can skip the suffering I experienced and start making the most of your second or third act, one confession at a time. Because every relationship begins with ourselves!XO, Laurie Connect with me:www.laurieejames.com Purchase my book, Sandwiched: A Memoir of Holding On and Letting Go, https://www.laurieejames.com/book IG: https://www.instagram.com/laurie.james/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/laurie.james.79219754
