    ๐ŸŽƒ When Did We Stop Caring About Halloween? | Masks, Doorbell Chaos & Going to Bed Early | Not So Deep Thoughts Okay, I have to warn you โ€” I am wearing a mask in this episode. A raven. A crow. Something from Target that I can only describe as โ€œEyes Wide Shut but open.โ€ Is it a gimp outfit? Is it a masquerade? Honestly, unclear. But what is clear is that at some point, adults quietly stop caring about Halloween โ€” and Iโ€™m here to ask: when exactly did that happen for you? In this episode of Not So Deep Thoughts, weโ€™re getting into: ๐ŸŽญ The mask situation โ€” what Target is selling and why I now own it ๐Ÿ‘  The evolution of womenโ€™s Halloween costumes (from โ€œsexy nurseโ€ to โ€œIโ€™m too old for thisโ€) ๐Ÿฐ Disney adults and why I am firmly not one of them ๐Ÿ›Ž๏ธ Why trick-or-treaters are a threat in my house (Tank WILL lose his mind, the cat WILL disappear) ๐Ÿ•ฏ๏ธ The bah-humbug household โ€” lights dim, nobody home ๐Ÿฌ Going to bed for Halloween and buying discount candy on November 1st ๐Ÿ’‘ The couples costume question โ€” did you and your partner ever do matching?

    Can You Age Gracefully? And What Does That Even Mean?!

    ๐Ÿ‘ต Aging Gracefully? Let's Be Honest About What That Actually Means at 52 | Reinventing Rumbley My husband just bought a shoehorn. We are two seconds away from tiptoeing into the nursing home and I have THOUGHTS. ๐Ÿ‘‡ In this honest, funny, and surprisingly moving episode Christina takes on the topic she's been sitting with lately โ€” aging. What it really looks like. What it actually feels like. And whether gracefully is even the right word for any of it. This one is personal. Really personal. From secretly keeping notes on how many times Doug can't hear her at dinner (hearing aids: he refuses), to watching her parents get older, to lying awake worrying about Alzheimer's and dementia at 52 โ€” Christina goes to all the places most people avoid. In this episode she covers: Doug and the shoehorn: the moment she knew they were maturing whether they liked it or not Gen X nostalgia: drinking from scorching hot Florida hoses, no helmets, no seatbelts, merry-go-rounds designed to make you vomit, and getting the sleeping bag caught in the bike spokes and flying headfirst over the handlebars ๐Ÿ˜‚ The very real fear of Alzheimer's and dementia โ€” and why watching the people around her is keeping her up at night Doug's hearing loss from his rock and roll days โ€” why the doctor told him not to get a hearing aid unless he plans to wear it forever โ€” and why he is now just peacefully tuning out entire dinner conversations ๐Ÿ˜‚ Secretly logging how many times he can't hear her and what he said about that Aging parents: the sandwich generation is real โ€” 47% of adults in their 40s and 50s will become caregivers 80% of breast cancers in women occur after age 50 โ€” and what that means for showing up for our health Botox: do you, no judgment, here's Christina's favorite finger for anyone who disagrees ๐Ÿ˜‚ Why every single line on your face is an earned stripe โ€” visible or not The internal scars nobody can see and why we should stop cursing at the slow person in the grocery line Why you ain't gonna defy gravity or time and why that might actually be the most liberating truth of all Glass half full at 52: Coca-Cola vices, pearly white gates, and hoping she earned a seat upstairs The final message: stay curious, stay honest, and live the absolute hell out of this life because we can't take it with us This one will make you laugh and then quietly think for a while. ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ“ฉ Email Christina: ReinventingRumbley@gmail.com ๐Ÿ”” Subscribe โ€” new episodes every Wednesday โญ Leave a 5-star review โ€” it genuinely helps more than you know ๐Ÿ‘‡ Drop a comment: What's the aging moment that stopped you cold and made it all very real?

    Perimenopause Brain Fog Is Real & Nobody Warned Me | Iron Deficiency, Blood Work & Forgetting Everything | Not So Deep Thoughts I went to my bathroom to get something.

And it is genuinely freaking me out. In this short, funny, and surprisingly informative episode of Not So Deep Thoughts, Christina goes fully in on perimenopause brain fog โ€” what it is, why it happens, what her bloodwork actually revealed, and the vitamin combination mistake she was making that was making everything worse. This episode covers: The laundry room incident, the glasses on the face incident, and the note in her phone that says "don't forget to check the mail" Why 60% of women going through perimenopause and menopause experience brain fog they cannot explain Why you should never Google your symptoms and why AI is actually worse than Google for medical rabbit holes ๐Ÿ˜‚ Getting 11 vials of blood drawn while fasting, hating needles, emotionally vomiting to the phlebotomist, and getting scolded for raising her arm after The blood work results from Superpower โ€” biologically 50.2 at age 52, 83 out of 100 on the health scale, and genuinely winning The real reason behind her brain fog: iron deficiency โ€” which a LOT of women experience during perimenopause and menopause The calcium blocker nobody told her about โ€” and why taking calcium and iron at the same time cancels them both out The vitamin C and iron combination trick that Claude told her and her doctor did not ๐Ÿ˜‚ Seven pills in the morning, nine at night, and the oil burp situation when you lay down too fast Doug forgetting things at 58 with zero hormonal excuse โ€” and Christina wanting answers Why men absolutely do not want this and we are confirming that right now Short.

    Women & Money: How Do You Negotiate & Navigate Your Worth?

    Know Your Worth & Ask For It: The Real Reason Women Are Still Underpaid | Reinventing Rumbley We are finally asking for the raise. And we are still being told no 38% more than our male counterparts. ๐Ÿ‘‡ This episode is one Christina has been wanting to do for a while โ€” because she got asked to name her own compensation package recently and went full deer in headlights. Called three male friends just to figure out how to negotiate for herself. And she has led 250 employees, sold companies, and built a career most people would kill for. If it can happen to her, it can happen to any of us. In this honest, real, and occasionally hilarious episode Christina covers: Why women went from 52 cents to the dollar in 1953 to 82.5 cents today โ€” and why full pay equality isn't projected until 2152 Why the problem is no longer that we don't ask โ€” it's that we ask and still get told no The 38% stat that should make every employer in the room uncomfortable Why women often walk in aiming lower before anyone even offers them less The fear of being called pushy โ€” and why that fear is costing us real money What it's actually like to sit across from someone who has your financial future in their hands (spoiler: poopy pants France is real ๐Ÿ˜‚) How your money mindset was shaped before you ever earned your first dollar โ€” and why understanding that changes everything Why calling three male peers to figure out how to negotiate for yourself is actually a genius move The $100K to $250K salary range gap in the same role โ€” and why nobody tells you what your counterpart is making Why financial transparency in relationships matters โ€” 37% of marriages end because of financial strain and most of the time it's because they're not talking The one thing Christina wants every woman to walk away with: nobody is going to fight harder for you than you And a little celebration โ€” past 5,000 subscribers! ๐ŸŽ‰ This one is for every woman who has ever soft-pedaled her rate, shrunk her ask, or felt her voice crack a little when it was time to say the number.

    Reinvention Closet: What Hat are you Wearing?

    What's In Your Reinvention Closet? Finding Your Next Chapter When You're Stuck In The In-Between | Reinventing Rumbley You're not lost. You're just between hats. ๐Ÿ‘‡ In this honest, funny, and genuinely helpful episode, Christina introduces a concept that might be the most useful framework for anyone stuck in a reinvention right now โ€” the Reinvention Closet. What's in yours? And when's the last time you even opened it? Christina is living this in real time at 52 โ€” morphing into someone new while still being herself, trying on different hats, self-appointing herself president of her husband's interior design firm, spending five hours on a psychological thriller she's never told anyone about, and putting grocery shopping in her calendar because one task now feels like climbing Kilimanjaro when she used to knock out a hundred before noon. Sound familiar? Yeah. You're not alone. In this episode Christina covers: The Reinvention Closet concept: what hats do you have that used to fit, still fit, or never fit โ€” and which ones are just collecting dust? Midlife grief โ€” what Leanne Kreischer calls the mourning that comes with changing into someone new while still being yourself Why the in-between isn't actually a problem. It might just be the process What it's like to go from leading 250 employees and murdering 100-item to-do lists daily to putting grocery shopping in your calendar as a blocked event Why tasks feel impossible without a North Star โ€” and what happens to your brain when purpose disappears Christina's secret psychological thriller she spent a whole weekend on โ€” that nobody knew about until right now Self-appointing yourself president of Stratton Design Group and why her husband said yes immediately ๐Ÿ˜‚ The High Point furniture market trip that lit a fire under her because it proved she's still absolutely in her element Dog trainer? That hat ain't gonna hunt. ๐Ÿพ Abstract art, a dot on the wall, and having the audacity to think you could do that What feeds your soul? What skill are you NOT using right now that might be sitting right there in that closet? Why this podcast is still the most therapeutic thing Christina does โ€” and why she doesn't even watch the edits back This one is for every person sitting in the middle of what's next โ€” not fully defined yet, not fully done with what was โ€” wondering what hat fits now. ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ“ฉ Email Christina: ReinventingRumbley@gmail.com ๐Ÿ”” Subscribe โ€” new episodes every Wednesday โญ Leave a 5-star review โ€” it genuinely helps more than you know ๐Ÿ‘‡ Drop a comment: What's in YOUR reinvention closet right now?

    ๐Ÿ˜ฉ The Reinvention Tax Nobody Talks About | Brain Fog, Closet Chaos & Washing Your Hair | Not So Deep Thoughts Nobody warned me that reinvention would cost this much. And I'm not just talking about money. Welcome to the reinvention tax โ€” the thing happening to Christina right now at 52 that she is finally naming out loud so you know you are not alone. In this short, funny, painfully real episode of Not So Deep Thoughts, Christina breaks down what the reinvention tax actually looks like when you're in the middle of it โ€” and it is not cute, it is not linear, and it absolutely involves putting "wash hair" in your calendar. This episode covers: The financial reinvention tax: new headshots, a resume she didn't have, a brand deck, a website, a wardrobe overhaul โ€” all at once The mental reinvention tax: going from running 250 employees and murdering 150-item to-do lists to being completely overwhelmed by a grocery store trip Why the bank, the car wash, and a PO box stop feel like full-on crises right now Doug asking her to make two stops โ€” and her woofing at him like a dog The calendar that currently includes: shower, wash hair, cut husband's fruit, and go to Walmart The closet audit that took four hours and involved 52 pairs of black pants in sizes 4 through 16 The Clothes Mentor disaster where four giant contractor bags of corporate clothing โ€” including an Hermรจs scarf and Givenchy pieces โ€” got rejected and she walked out with $8.47 for three sun hats ๐Ÿ˜‚ The feeling of loser-ness that creeps in when you were once unstoppable and now simple tasks feel enormous The only antidote Christina has found: grace, breathing through it, and letting the overwhelming things sit where they need to sit Tank. Hot spot. You'll understand when you watch it. ๐Ÿพ This is for every person in the middle of becoming someone new who has ever felt like they used to be capable of everything and now can barely get through Tuesday.

    Career Burn Out: How to Recognize and Deal with it

    Burnout, Boredom, or Bad Season? How to Tell the Difference & What to Do About It | Reinventing Rumbley 77% of professionals have experienced burnout. The World Health Organization made it official in 2019. And it is the number one reason founders exit their own companies. ๐Ÿ‘‡ But here's the question nobody is asking clearly enough โ€” Is it actually burnout? Or is it boredom? Or is it just a really bad season? Because the answer changes everything about what you do next. In this honest, practical, and deeply personal episode, Christina breaks down what she calls the Three B's โ€” and why confusing them can lead to the worst business decisions of your life. Putting a band-aid on an amputated leg is not a strategy. And if you're in burnout mode, you need to know it. Christina covers: The Three B's framework: Burnout, Boredom, and Bad Season โ€” and why they look and feel so similar but require completely different responses The four telltale signs you are actually burned out: exhaustion sleep can't cure, cynicism toward things you used to love, working more but producing less, and resentment slowly creeping into everything Why burnout is not a personal failure โ€” it's an official occupational phenomenon and 77% of professionals have been there Why boredom is the silent Achilles heel of entrepreneurs โ€” and how it can trick you into making decisions that blow up your business What a bad season actually looks like โ€” and how Hurricane Helene wiped out Asheville's tourism, nearly destroyed Christina's 20-year spa business, and is still being felt almost two years later The tipping point question every business owner eventually has to answer: put up or shut up, reinvent, reinvest, pivot, or get out Why running the scenarios is Christina's go-to move โ€” and how it works whether you're an entrepreneur, a corporate executive, or managing a team of one The Let Them theory (Mel Robbins) and why allowing people to show you who they are is one of the most freeing things you can do in business and in life Book recommendation: Burnout by Emily and Amelia Nagoski โ€” for anyone teetering on the edge and not sure which B they're in Christina's self-appointed role as fractional president of her husband Doug's interior design firm โ€” and why strengthening a strength beats trying to fix a weakness every single time This episode is for every entrepreneur, founder, corporate leader, or human being who has ever woken up and wondered โ€” wait, is this burnout? Or am I just bored? Or is this just life being life right now? ๐Ÿค You are not alone. Christina is in the middle of it too.

    Being an Empath as a Leader in Business: Who is in the Empath Club?

    Welcome to the Empath Club: Is Being an Empath Your Superpower or Your Kryptonite? | Reinventing Rumbley Do you cry at Budweiser Super Bowl commercials? Do strangers tell you their entire life story in a grocery line within 1.2 seconds of meeting you? Do you feel other people's emotions like they're actually happening to you? ๐Ÿ‘‡ Welcome to the Empath Club. Pull up a chair. Christina has been saving you a seat. In this deeply personal and surprisingly funny episode, Christina opens up about what it's actually like being an empath โ€” from crying at gospel hymns as a two-year-old to being a complete wreck watching Yellowstone, to being the only person in her house reaching for tissues while her husband and daughter stare at her like she's lost her mind. Christina breaks down: What being an empath actually means and why it's not an official clinical term but is extremely well-documented The surprising stat: 1 in 5 people show empathic traits โ€” and what that means for how we navigate a world full of strong feelings Mirror neurons โ€” the brain cells that make empaths literally feel other people's emotions as if they're their own The difference between an empath and an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) โ€” and why Christina is both The telltale signs: crying at commercials and weddings, strangers telling you their whole life in the checkout line, saying yes when you desperately want to say no Why empaths are natural targets for energy vampires โ€” and how to protect yourself The sound bathing event in Asheville where Christina spent the entire time doing standup comedy in her head and waiting for someone to fart ๐Ÿ˜‚ Why empaths are some of the most powerful leaders in the room โ€” and why that same gift can make them the most exhausted ones The danger of empathy without boundaries โ€” and the difference between feeling with your team and taking on their problems as your own The most important lesson Christina has learned: regulate first, respond second Why suppressed emotion leaks out sideways โ€” and what decompression actually looks like in practice The closing truth that hit different: the most powerful empathetic leaders aren't the ones who feel the most. They're the ones who feel deeply and stay grounded. This one is for every person who has ever been told they are too sensitive, too emotional, too much โ€” and is ready to understand why that might be the most powerful thing about them. ๐Ÿค ๐Ÿ“ฉ Email Christina: ReinventingRumbley@gmail.com ๐Ÿ”” Subscribe โ€” new episodes every Wednesday โญ Leave a 5-star review โ€” it genuinely helps more than you know ๐Ÿ‘‡ Drop a comment: Are you an empath?
