    Flirting w/ Life Itself with Michaela D'Artois (Part 2)

    We're back for part 2 with the wonderful Michaela D'Artois and this three hour (across 2 eps) conversation is the gift that keeps on giving. We really get into it this episode - flirting (how do we actually do it, why people aren't doing it, and what we can do about it), the specific information we each need to connect to our most erotic selves, nervous system regulation, how growing into yourself is an act of rebellion, and why your dating pool gets smaller and better the more you know yourself. I share a lot more about my own experience working with Michaela and how working with her has transformed my relationship with myself, desire, and intimacy. ps I get to do my very first unboxing on the pod, because gift giving really is a love language :)  Michaela is so wise and wonderful and I could (clearly) talk to her forever. Per usual, enjoy! xx   If you are listening to this the day it comes out (July 22, 2026) come hang with us TONIGHT at Wing Woman Wednesday!

    Giving Yourself Permission with Michaela d'Artois

    Cue: "Let's Talk About Sex" by Salt N Pepa. This week we're joined by the wonderful Michaela d'Artois - certified sexologist, intimacy coach, and glorious human. Michaela and I gabbed for so long, this is our first ever two-part conversation! We talk about her career pivot into sexology and how every weird job, side project, and skill she ever had alchemized to land her exactly where she was supposed to be. We get into the stories we tell ourselves about who we are in relationships, the patterns that keep us safe, where they come from, why they're there, and what it actually takes to shift them. I share honestly about my own experience working with Michaela and we talk about desire, permission, self-worth, what true confidence actually is, FLIRTING, and the power of making great eye contact. If you, like me, have ever felt like a late bloomer in this area (maybe the most universal experience there is), this episode is for you. Michaela is so wise and fun and I couldn't love this conversation more. Stay til the end to hear about a very fun live event we are co-hosting in LA on July 22, plus part 2 coming in two weeks. xx   Follow Michaela: IG: @michaeladartois @inner.eros Substack: Inner Monolgue TikTok: @inner.eros https://www.innereros.com Join us for Wing Woman Wednesday on July 22nd Rewriting the Erotic Self @ Tea at Shiloh on July 27th tickets here   Follow me: IG: @sophragir Substack: permission slip TikTok: @sophragir *follow me and Michaela for more info about Wing Woman Wednesday on July 22 in Los Angeles   Follow the show: YouTube: @LateToThePartyWithSophieRagir IG: @latetotheparty_pod TikTok: @latetotheparty_pod

    Love Well, Fight Well, Human Well with Kacie Carter Chamberlayne

    This week's episode with Kacie Carter Chamberlayne is the kind of conversation I dreamed of having when I launched this podcast. I am — and I cannot stress this enough — obsessed with this convo, and have been referencing it IRL ever since we recorded. Kacie is the host of I Can Only Speak for Myself, founder of the beloved LA restaurant Honey Hi, and one of my favorite humans to talk to about the hard work of being a human. This is an incredibly honest and personal conversation (Kacie tells a particularly powerful story about her son and how we model being more human with our children) and we get into perfectionism, the dark side of self-improvement, what the kind of relationships we want to have actually requires, and what happens when we're willing to be seen in the parts of ourselves we most want to hide. We talk about fallability, making mistakes, rupture and repair, shadow work, and why conflict is the cost of intimacy. I hope you walk away feeling a little less alone and with some tangible resources around codependency, people pleasing, the addiction to being liked, letting relationships end, and fostering deeper connection with yourself and others. This conversation is very very special and I feel particularly grateful to share this one with you guys xx Follow Kacie: IG: @kaciecarter Substack: I Can Only Speak for Myself Podcsat: I Can Only Speak for Myself   Follow me: IG: @sophragir Substack: permission slip TikTok: @sophragir   Follow the show: YouTube: @LateToThePartyWithSophieRagir IG: @latetotheparty_pod TikTok: @latetotheparty_pod

    Being In Community Healed Me with Sutanya Dacres

    This week we're joined by Sutanya Dacres — author, podcast host, and founder/IRL host of Dinner for One, a home for single women to experience, celebrate, and redefine solo living. We recorded this in Paris on a beautiful spring evening and talk about what it actually takes to build something over ten years, the shame that dissolves when we share our stories, and what the coming apart of something (her divorce) gave her — in love, in life, and in learning to take care of herself. Plus dreaming big without a clue how it's gonna happen, stopping waiting for permission, and what it means to be part of the first generation of women who get to live entirely on their own terms. Sutanya has built an incredible and special community under the Dinner for One banner, and it's so evident given her warmth, humor, and wisdom. Enjoy!!

    Walk Through the Open Doors with Clark Moore

    This week we're joined by the ever so chic Clark Moore — writer, actor, author of the Substack Wist, and newly minted Parisian. We talk about taking the long way (and why the hard path isn't always the noble one), what it means to be an artist whether you're working or not, the grenade moment that blew Clark's life wide open, and why it is so much harder to live an unfulfilling life than it is to change it. Plus narratives we inherit that don't serve us, coming out of hibernation, our shared love of Joan Didion, Nora Ephron and Maggie Nelson, and why "stop hedging" might be the best advice you can give yourself at any age. Clark is wonderful and so is this conversation!   Follow Clark: IG: @mrclarkmoore Substack: Wistover   Follow me: IG: @sophragir Substack: permission slip TikTok: @sophragir   Follow the show: YouTube: @LateToThePartyWithSophieRagir IG: @latetotheparty_pod TikTok: @latetotheparty_pod

    Follow Your Curiosity with Danielle Robay

    Today we're joined by the queen of questions Danielle Robay. Danielle is the host and co-executive producer (alongside Reese Witherspoon) of Bookmarked from Hello Sunshine, as well as the host of her podcast QUESTION EVERYTHING. She's interviewed some of our greatest icons (think Taylor Swift, Mark Cuban, Viola Davis, Dolly Parton, Tom Hanks, Serena Williams, Diane Von Furstenberg, Gloria Steinem...) and gathered so much wisdom along the way, which she shares with us on today's episode. We talk about the power of meeting our criticism with curiosity, how to hear the whispers that are guiding you, why failure is valuable, why being "the man in the arena" is the most courageous thing you can do, and the gift of befriending the parts of ourselves we're most embarassed of. Plus the etymology of the word desire, the 85th birthday question that will reorient your whole life, and why we're all way more alike than we are different. Danielle is one of the most thoughtful humans I know and this conversation gave me so much.

We talk about why we need to celebrate different "points of arrival," how we make decisions, confidence and nuance, decentering men without cutting them out, leaning back, and how to carve new neural pathways in order to feel more free. Plus cringe, flirting with the world, and why nobody has anything figured it out. I have so much FUN with Gabby out in the world his conversation felt so fun. Enjoy!

    Widening Our Window Of Tolerance with Mollie Farrell Snowden

    This week we're joined by Mollie Farrell Snowden — somatic practioner, nervous system educator, and integrative healer. We talk about what it actually takes to leave careers that look very good on paper, why feeling safe in our bodies allows us to navigate an uncomfortable world, the courage to own what you're good at (maybe even great at) and say what you believe out loud, and how the things that initially repelled us ended up being part of what we're here to do. You'll hear more about the coaching work we both do, why we believe in it, and what it took for each of us to get here. We're two spiritual freaks getting vulnerable and honest. This episode is for anyone looking for a little bit of courage (and a few resources) to step into the unfamiliar and new. Enjoy Mollie and all her wisdom and medicine!!  Follow Mollie: IG: @molliefarrell molliefarrell.com   Follow me: IG: @sophragir Substack: permission slip TikTok: @sophragir   Follow the show: YouTube: @LateToThePartyWithSophieRagir IG: @latetotheparty_pod TikTok: @latetotheparty_pod
