You don’t need a quiet house.
You don’t need a fresh journal, a candle, or the “right headspace.”

In this episode, Bridget and Julie walk you through 10 gentle New Year reflection questions in real time - the kind you can answer as you listen. Sitting in the car. On the couch. With a notes app open and a half-drunk cup of tea beside you.

We pause.
We give you space.
And then…imperfectly and honestly…we answer them ourselves, on the fly.

This is not about crafting beautiful intentions or saying the “right” thing. It’s about noticing what’s actually true after a full year of living, loving, mothering, working, holding, and becoming.

You’re invited to reflect alongside us - not as a student, not as someone who needs to get it together - but as a woman in motion.

Let this be messy.
Let it be simple.
Let it meet you exactly where you are.

Press play. Grab your phone or a pen.
And join us in meeting the year ahead, without forcing it.

The post-Christmas crash can leave many women feeling not just tired, but disconnected — from their bodies, their partners, and their erotic selves. In this deeply relieving episode, Julie and Bridget explore how the adrenaline of December masks exhaustion until it drops, and why that comedown so often shows up as sexual shutdown. They gently dismantle the myth that intimacy requires energy women simply don’t have at this time of year, and explore what it looks like to reconnect without pressure, performance, or guilt. This conversation reframes low libido not as a relationship problem, but as an intelligent signal of depletion, mental load, and modern motherhood…and offers a softer, more honest pathway back to connection.

In this episode we discuss:

- Why the post-Christmas adrenaline crash often brings emotional and sexual disconnection

- How modern motherhood, constant vigilance, and over-functioning contribute to sexual shutdown

- Why Christmas and January amplify “roommate mode” in long-term relationships

- The link between mental load, resentment, and loss of erotic aliveness

- Why low libido is usually a symptom; not the problem itself

- How women’s bodies move into protection when overloaded or depleted

- Why many women confuse loss of desire with loss of love

- How arousal is contextual and relational; not a random internal drive

- The difference between erotic aliveness and sexual performance

- How pressure (even loving pressure) quietly kills arousal

- Why fixing sex by focusing on sex often backfires

- The power of noticing and appreciating everyday contributions in a relationship

- Small, genuine interactions that reduce resentment and rebuild connection

- Ways couples can stay connected that aren’t about sex — but often lead back to it

In the final week before Christmas, when the lists are finished and the adrenaline drops, many women don’t feel relief…they feel flat, teary, irritable or quietly undone. This episode is an emotional temperature check for overstretched mothers asking, “I should be happy… so why do I feel empty?” Julie and Bridget name the invisible load women are carrying and explore why Christmas becomes the moment everything catches up. This isn’t about fixing yourself, it’s about naming what’s real instead of performing festive happiness, and understanding what your body and heart have been holding all year.

In this episode we discuss:

- Why women often get sick, emotional or unravel right as the “finish line” approaches

- What happens in the nervous system when the doing stops and there’s finally space to feel

- The invisible labour of holding logistics, emotions, magic and family harmony

- The silent bargains women make with themselves to keep going…and the cost of those bargains

- The thoughts women don’t say out loud because they feel ungrateful, dramatic or selfish

- Why Christmas stirs grief for younger selves, lost parents and past seasons of motherhood

- How desire and libido don’t disappear — they go into protective shutdown

- The emotional contradictions of this season: love and resentment, gratitude and grief, desire and numbness

- Why being told to “just rest” can feel infuriating when you’re already depleted

- The difference between coping and actually being okay

- How to tend yourself gently without adding another thing to your to-do list
