    What Nobody Tells You About Sex & Intimacy with Your Spouse in Your 50s & 60s (Part 2)

    In early marriage, intimacy is effortless. You don't have to plan it, think about it, or work at it. Midlife is a different story, and in this episode, Zane and I get honest about sex and intimacy after 50. Zane and I talk honestly about the real challenges of intimacy in midlife, from menopause and hormones to feeling attractive and getting out of a rut. From there, we get into what men really find attractive in their wives, why confidence matters so much, and how taking care of yourself changes the way you show up in your marriage. After nearly forty years together, Zane and I don't have all the answers. But we've learned that intimacy isn't about looking like you did at twenty-five. It's about choosing each other, respecting each other, and making room for this part of your relationship to keep growing.   WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: Why intimacy changes in your 50s and 60s, and why it can become more meaningful than ever My honest experience with hormone replacement therapy and what changed when I found my balance. Plus, why Zane is now open to testosterone for the first time. What Zane says men actually find attractive in their wives (and it has nothing to do with your appearance) How decades of trust, love, and shared history create a kind of intimacy you simply can't have in a young marriage How to communicate about intimacy, get out of a rut, and understand what each other needs as your bodies and seasons of life change Why intimacy in your 50s and 60s can go deeper than it ever did in your 20s and 30s   LINKS & RESOURCES Listen to Part 1: What Kills Romance in Your Marriage in Your 50s and 60s (And How to Get It Back When It Feels Hopeless) Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube   WHERE TO LISTEN If this episode encouraged you, we would love it if you took a few minutes to rate and review The SavvyCast!

    What Kills Romance in Marriage in Your 50s and 60s (And How to Get It Back When It Feels Hopeless)

    Romance in midlife is one of the topics I get asked about most, which is exactly why I invited Zane to sit down and have this honest conversation with me. Keeping romance alive in marriage in your 50s and 60s looks completely different than it did at twenty-five, and Zane and I are not here to pretend we have always had it figured out. We have been together forty years, and that means we have had seasons of deep connection and seasons of real drift.  In this episode we talk through what actually keeps romance going in a long marriage, what quietly kills it when you stop paying attention, and how you can get it back when it feels completely hopeless.   WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: Why romance shifts from chemistry to intentionality the longer you are married, and why that shift is actually something worth celebrating The honest conversation about hormones for women 50+, why getting them in balance matters more than most people talk about, and where to start What it means to become a student of who your spouse has actually become across the decades, not just the person you married The powerful difference between feeling chosen and feeling merely tolerated, and what it does to a marriage when your spouse knows you would still pick them all over again How curiosity, mystery, and paying attention to the small things fuel intimacy and keep romance going long after the early excitement fades Why earned love, the kind only built through decades of faithfulness together, can be the most romantic love of your life, and how to find your way back to it if it feels hopeless right now   LINKS & RESOURCES The SavvyCast episode with Ally Phillips (Ally's Kitchen) — a source of inspiration for aging well in midlife: Apple Podcasts Spotify YouTube   WHERE TO LISTEN If this episode encouraged you, we would love it if you took a few minutes to rate and review The SavvyCast!

    The Brain Aneurysm That Gave Her a Better Marriage, a Healed Mind, & a Brand New Life

    When my dear friend Debra Hewitt texted me and said, "Jamie, you have got to get Sarah Faulkner on The SavvyCast," I listened. And I am so glad I did!  Sarah is a brain aneurysm survivor, but this conversation is not just a story about surviving. It is a story about what comes after.  After a ruptured aneurysm, Sarah went through emergency surgery and 21 days in the ICU. What she came home to was something none of us could have predicted: a troubled marriage transformed from the ground up, childhood trauma healed that she had carried for decades, and a faith that changed the way she sees everything.  She is also the founder of Milk Velvet Pearls, a jewelry ministry built on the truth that beauty is born from struggle, and Sarah's story is living proof of just that.   WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: What a brain aneurysm rupture actually feels like, why Sarah did not call 911, and how she spent five days before making it to the emergency room Her emergency surgery, her time in the ICU, and what recovery really looked like when she finally came home The troubled 20-year marriage she nearly walked away from, how her husband got sober, and what "Marriage 2.0" actually looks like today How she renewed her mind and healed not just physically but from years of childhood trauma and abuse she had carried her whole life The story behind Milk Velvet Pearls, the pearl as a symbol of beauty born from struggle   LINKS & RESOURCES Milk Velvet Pearls website Follow Sarah Faulkner on Instagram (@mvpearlgirl) Double Portion Earrings | Milk Velvet Pearls Debra Hewitt Art   WHERE TO LISTEN If this episode encouraged you, we would love it if you took a few minutes to rate and review The SavvyCast!

    How We're Investing in Our Grandchildren: Trump Accounts, 529s, & Family Traditions

    If you have grandchildren or are getting close to that sweet season of life, these are the things you need to know about investing in your grandchildren. I sat down with my husband Zane for a real chat about the steps we are taking to intentionally invest in our grandchildren both financially and in life. We talk about the kind of legacy we want to leave our two grandbabies (and two more on the way!) that goes so much deeper than money. We dive into the family traditions we hope will anchor them. Plus, we cover the financial tools every grandparent should know right now, including Trump accounts and 529 college savings plans. Zane also shares the compound interest math that will stop you in your tracks!   WHAT TO EXPECT IN THIS EPISODE: How Trump accounts work, what the $1,000 government gift at birth means for your grandchild, and why you need to sign up now The compound interest math that will make your jaw drop: how investing $250 a month from birth can build its way up to millions by the age of 65 Why Zane believes faith, presence, and speaking identity over your grandchildren matter even more than financial gifts What grandparent traditions we hope to establish to make lifelong memories: quarterly grandparent weekends, birthday affirmations, lake weeks, graduation celebrations, and more How 529 college savings plans work and why grandparents are in a unique position to contribute The "multiplier" approach to teaching grandchildren about generosity (and how we used it with our own daughters) Why investing in grandchildren by blessing their parents (think date nights, Mother's Day out, and house cleaners for new moms) might be the smartest use of your resources right now LINKS & RESOURCES Die with Zero by Bill Perkins Trump Account information   WHERE TO LISTEN If this episode encouraged you, we would love it if you took a few minutes to rate and review the SavvyCast! It means so much and helps more women find the show!

In this episode, Ally shares the mindset that has carried her through some of life's hardest seasons, her fitness routine, her three simple eating philosophies, what she has learned about how to stay strong as you age when so many people around her are slowing down, and how she stays fully present with her grandchildren while running her business as a Creator.
