    Bad Bunny and a Lesson in Belonging for SINKs

    If we learned anything from the Bad Bunny Super Bowl performance, it’s that representation isn’t just about visibility; it’s about belonging. Watching families wave flags, sing every word, and see themselves reflected on the biggest stage reminded us how powerful it is to feel seen, heard, and valued. The emotional truth of the human experience is universal: people want spaces where they don’t have to defend their existence. For single and childfree women, that often means navigating a world built around marriage and motherhood as the default, where our lives are questioned or misunderstood. In this episode, we explore why building community for SINK women isn’t niche — it’s necessary — and how being surrounded by likeminded women allows you to soften, exhale, and exist wholeheartedly in your joy. Your life is not a placeholder, and you deserve spaces where you truly belong.

    Self Care is OUT, Self Devotion is IN w/ Valentine Blue

    Practice self-devotion expert, Valentine Blue, a solo sex coach, intimacy mentor, and founder of OddBird, also known as the “blue fairy” guiding people back to themselves. Wake up from autopilot living, reclaim pleasure as an internal resource, and learn how to say F**K YES to yourself. Valentine brings nearly a decade of experience in sexual health and pleasure advocacy, including harm-reduction work across Europe supporting sex workers and people living on society’s margins. Her work is rooted in the belief that sexuality is never just about sex, it’s about freedom, power, belonging, and choice. After a major identity reckoning in 2023, Valentine left her relationship, city, and career behind to backpack the world solo. That journey reshaped her life and led her to train as a certified sex coach and sexologist with the Sexual Health Alliance. Today, through OddBird, Valentine creates bold, playful, unapologetic spaces for curious, open-minded solos who are ready to explore pleasure, self-intimacy, and connection without waiting for a partner or permission.

    Caring for Your Aging Parents w/ Julie Mayer and Barry Jacobs

    This episode is a special live workshop recording that took place inside The Single and Childfree Network, where members joined in real time to listen, learn, and ask their most pressing questions about caring for aging parents. Barry J. Jacobs, PsyD, and Julia L. Mayer, PsyD, husband-and-wife psychologists who have spent over 30 years counseling family caregivers, and who also cared for their own aging parents for more than a decade, share their insight. They are the authors of The AARP Caregiver Answer Book, a compassionate, practical guide designed to help caregivers navigate everything from family conflict and care coordination to financial stress and end-of-life decisions. This conversation centers the often-overlooked experience of single and childfree women, who are frequently assumed to be the “obvious choice” for caregiving, without discussion, shared responsibility, or support. Together, we explore the emotional weight of caregiving, the family dynamics that complicate it, and the tools caregivers need to protect their mental health while advocating for their parents and themselves. The final portion of the recording features live audience Q&A, where members of the network asked real, situational questions—especially around doing this work alone, navigating resistant parents, managing sibling dynamics, and understanding legal and financial responsibilities. This episode is both a resource and a reminder: caregiving doesn’t have to mean self-erasure, and no one should have to figure it out in isolation. https://x.com/JuliaLMayer23 https://loveandmeaning.com/about/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/barry-jacobs-02ab9625/ https://www.aarp.org/caregiving/experts/barry-jacobs/ Get the AARP Caregiver Answer Book HERE Join the Single and Childfree Network: https://www.theangelagentile.com/scfnetwork   Sponsors:  Better Help: https://betterhelp.com/angelag   MidiHealth: https://www.trymidi.com/angelag   GET A WHIFF https://getawhiffco.com/ Use code: ANGELA for 20% off   Follow  socials: https://www.instagram.com/theangelagentile/ https://www.instagram.com/theempoweredmillennials/ https://tiktok.com/@theangelagentile

    Parasocial Relationships and the Illusion of Intimacy

    To build deep connection and intimacy, regardless if it is a trip to Cuba, a partnership or someone we align with on the internet, we need a level of mutual vulnerability and reciprocity, not a one sided performance. Cuba was....something. Drawing from my recent trip there and the discomfort of experiencing something curated rather than real, I really wanted to share how this experience relates to this new found influencer status on social media and how true connection requires mutual vulnerability, not one-sided performance. I unpack the idea of connection: what it really is, and what it isn’t. We dive into parasocial relationships, why they form, how they can quietly disconnect us from ourselves, and how to engage with creators, and each other, in healthier, more human ways that foster self-trust, reciprocity, and genuine connection.

    The Greatest Love Story

    The year 2025 is meant to wrap up old patterns, so that's exactly what we are going to do. This is the last episode it is hella personal. The Diddy Doc really stirred up some things in me around the ways I have been upholding men, protecting their stories and taking on what was never mine to begin with. In this deeply personal episode, I reflect on how the stories I told myself about love, loyalty, and being “chosen” kept me anchored to patterns that no longer served me. An unexpected reconnection with a woman from my past cracked open two decades of conditioning, clarity, and healing—and forced me to finally tell the truth about a relationship I had long romanticized. Because the greatest love story you will ever live isn’t about who you end end up with: it’s about who you become when you finally chose yourself.

    Hype Tip ➡️ Don't Force When You Don't Have it to Give

    Let go of I HAVE TO because you can't force what you don't have to give. Sometimes you don't have it to give and that's ok! It doesn't need to be performative because whatever you are doing is enough. Maybe your worst is someone's best and you get to tone it down a notch. You have permission.
