    How to Get Unstuck: Clarity, Confidence & the Grey Zone | The Lime Light

    You’re not stuck because you don’t know what to do. You’re stuck because something in you doesn’t feel clear enough to move. In this episode, we sit down with Tami Palmer, career and life coach and author of The Greyzone, to talk about what it really means to be in the in-between — that messy space where nothing feels fully right, but nothing feels clear either. We get into why people stay in what feels “safe” even when it’s not working, the real reason you’re second-guessing yourself, and the simple framework Tami uses with clients: clear, get clarity, then take action. We also talk about: • Why most people already know what they want (they just don’t trust it) • The fear of leaving what’s familiar, even when it’s not aligned • The biggest mistake people make when making decisions • Why women over-explain in negotiation and how to stop • The power of being seen in community and not doing life alone And at the end, Tami shares what it actually looks like to live fully as yourself — not 80%, not filtered, but all the way in. If you’ve been sitting in the “what’s next” of your life… this one’s for you.

    Rethinking Love, Polyamory, and Social Norms - The Lime Light

    Polyamory, consensual non-monogamy, relationship communication, and emotional intelligence are at the center of this conversation with Dr. Ariana Caesar. Most people still hear polyamory and think casual sex, cheating, secrecy, or chaos, but Ariana brings a more grounded, respectful, and real understanding of what polyamory actually is, how it differs from cheating, and why the right language can change the entire conversation. She debunks common myths about non-monogamous relationships, breaks down hierarchical polyamory and kitchen table polyamory, explores how media representation shapes public understanding, and shares practical ways to talk about polyamory with family, friends, and healthcare providers. We also get into the ways legal systems and hospitals still overlook polyamorous families, how gender, sexuality, and social norms push people into narrow roles, and why education, community, and self-discovery can spare people years of shame, confusion, and heartbreak. Whether you’re curious about polyamory, exploring alternative relationship styles, rethinking traditional relationships, or trying to become a better ally, parent, educator, or healthcare professional, this episode offers a more honest, nuanced conversation about love, identity, and community.

    The Lime Light: Real Change Starts at Home with Janelle Kellman (Climate + Community)

    In this episode of Squeeze Limes, we sit down with Janelle Kellman, former mayor of Sausalito, environmental attorney, and a climate risk and economic resilience leader running for Lieutenant Governor of California. We talk about what real leadership looks like when it’s grounded in action, especially when the world feels loud, divided, and overwhelming. Janelle shares the through line that shaped her leadership, stories from her family, and the moments that taught her why courage and community matter. We get into local change, why small groups still move the needle, and how she thinks about purpose, resilience, and staying curious instead of stuck in fear. And there’s a lot of joy in this one. Janelle’s energy is genuinely infectious, from her love of the process (and the people) to the way she talks about community, telling women “good job” out loud, and even opening the shades each morning to say “good morning, world.” It’s hopeful and practical. We also touch on climate policy, including the EPA’s role in regulating greenhouse gases, plus practical steps listeners can take right now: contacting elected officials, voting, reducing plastic use, and conserving water. Find Janelle: JanelleKellman.com IG/TikTok: @JanelleKellmanforLTG Topics: Janelle Kellman interview, California Lieutenant Governor race, California politics, environmental attorney, climate resilience, local government leadership, community organizing, EPA endangerment finding, greenhouse gas regulation, sea level rise, flooding, water conservation, plastic reduction

    People-Pleasing: What We'd Do If We Were 10% Less Polite

    What would change if you stayed kind, stayed thoughtful, and just dialed your politeness down by a very manageable 10%? In this episode, we get into the moments where “being polite” starts running your calendar, your energy, and your patience, and how easy it is to say yes out of habit instead of desire. We talk about the invites you accept because it feels expected, the showers that pile up until your weekends feel booked by tradition, the phone calls you watch come in while your whole body votes for text, and the classic move of escorting people all the way to the door like you’re hosting a formal event instead of living in your own house. It’s a mother-daughter riff that stays honest and funny while we sort through what politeness actually means, what it costs when it turns into auto-yes, and how one small shift can give you more room to breathe without turning you into a snob.
