GenX Adulting Podcast

In this episode we welcome Gina Rania, Gen-X RESET Coach.  Gina shares about her childhood growing up in New Jersey with her parents and two older sisters.  Shortly after her parent's divorce when she was young, her mother remarried.  Gina grew up experiencing the trauma that results from having a parent who is an alcoholic, which contributed greatly to her having a fight, flight or fawn response throughout her life.  After attending school she married and had three beautiful children.  We discuss how generational trauma is passed down and how GenX women in particular are prone to wearing their “Wonder Woman Cape” and doing all the things and being all the things for everyone, except herself.  Gina shares the dark period after her divorce, and the day she decided to change the entire trajectory of her life.  Becoming a certified Life and Wellness Coach soon followed, which led to  Gina creating the RESET (Recognize, Embrace, Shift, Empower, Transformation) Framework.  Through the RESET Framework, Gina has helped her clients change their life by creating a bridge to transformation.  She is creating a growing community of women who have hit midlife and are searching for guidance on how to find themselves again, or maybe even find themselves for the first time in their lives.  Gina is also in the process of writing a book titled, “Gen X Reset", based on her RESET Framework.  Additionally she has created the “RESET Circle” where her clients receive an informative newsletter from her.  Whether it be perimenopause, menopause, trauma, divorce, fear, depression, anxiety or the other multitude of challenges people are facing midlife, Gina has created a tool to help.  We also discuss raising adult children, where Gina offers a glimpse into one of the most challenging times of her life when her daughter was battling cancer.  We loved our discussions with Gina and the insights she shared.  She truly has her finger on the pulse of GenX and we encourage our listeners to reach out to her if they are in need of some guidance and support.  We look forward to having Gina return to the studio to dive even deeper into some of the topics we discuss in this episode!Find Gina Here:https://www.ginarania.comTikTok: @gina_rania_Instagram: @ginarania3YouTube: @ginarania7790Facebook: Facebook.com/gina.raniadefrancisco#genx #generationx #midlife #menopause #perimenopause #podcast #interview #genxtalks #over50 #over40 #marriage #divorce #family #newjersey #coach #lifecoach #guthealth #cancer #trauma #depression #anxiety #parenting #adultchildren #therapy #reset #generationaltrauma Check us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome Sherri Dindal, aka The Real Slim Sherri.  Sherri reflects on her “typical GenX childhood”, that was filled with being feral, drinking from the garden hose and even having her own Hansel and Gretel situation in her neighborhood.  A home life that involved alcoholism and the factors that typically go along with it resulted in Sherri acquiring the hypervigilance that so many GenXers have battled their entire lives.  We discuss the parenting styles of GenX as parents, and how many are breaking the cycle.  Sherri shares how she has been finding success in the use of EMDR Therapy on her healing journey.  We discuss how perimenopause may have played a role in Sherri’s decision to leave her job as an investigator at 43, but how that decision changed the entire trajectory of her life.  Together, Sherri and her wife Christa started their first business, Feather & Vine boutique, ten years ago.  Their second business, Wholesome Hippy soon followed, and has resulted in so much success that Sherri was recently on Good Morning America!  Sherri shares how turning 50 was an awakening for her and another pivotal moment in her life.  We learn how a severe battle with Covid led to her third business, The Real Slim Sherri, where she has gained over 6 million followers through her brilliant ability to use humor when discussing even the most taboo subjects, combined with an authenticity that brings comfort to her fans.  The Real Slim Sherri led to The GenX Takeover tour, a comedy variety show that she headlines along with three other GenX talents, Kelly Manno, The Dad Bod Veteran and Mr. Professor318.  The Millennials are also represented by host/comedian Justin Rupple.  The GenX Takeover Tour is the perfect example of "you can do anything at any age" and the importance of conquering your fear of being uncomfortable while continuing to challenge yourself.  It’s no wonder Sherri recently won the Cheer of the Year Award at the Cheer Choice Awards.  The award is given to someone who has done good in the world and helped others, and what an absolutely eloquent honor for all of GenX that someone from our generation, who has a shared story with us, and who had the courage to take a leap of faith midlife to chase her dreams, dreams that ended up helping people, won.  Many call her “The GenX Queen”,  and as much as Sherri so obviously appreciates everything she has and how much she adores her fans, there is no question that being a wife to Christa and a mother to her son and two daughters is the pride of her life.  We were absolutely thrilled to have this time with Sherri and not only hear her story, but discuss real issues that are affecting GenXers midlife.  Even if you’re not GenX, you will thoroughly enjoy every minute of this episode, and younger generations will learn a lot.Find Sherri At:http://www.therealslimsherri.com/ttps://genxtakeover.com/https://www.tiktok.com/@therealslimsherri?lang=enhttps://www.instagram.com/therealslimsherri/https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCCVOgGTmi_fT96aPcOoRQ6whttps://www.facebook.com/sherri.dindal/https://substack.com/@therealslimsherri?utm_source=user-menuCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome JD, one of the coolest boomers we know.  JD shares about his experience coming from a large family of five children, which included many moves throughout his childhood.  We learn how one particular moment he witnessed while living in Baton Rouge, Louisiana changed his perspective on life forever.  We discuss youth sports and the impact travel sports has had on recreational leagues.  JD confirms that the movie "Dazed and Confused" was an accurate depiction of his high school years in the mid to late 1970s, as well as how much the college application process has changed.  He reflects on his college years at James Madison University, where he played lacrosse and made lifelong friends.  Life after college included starting a business with his buddies that became integrated into the software revolution of the 1980s.  JD’s next move was working for Cisco Systems, a position that put him on the forefront of the preparation for Y2K as well as offered him the opportunity to travel the world as a Global Account Manager.  JD offers valuable sales advice and wisdom based on his vast experience, and we highly encourage anyone considering a career in sales to pay extra attention to that part of the episode.  We discuss marital and domestic life when one spouse travels for work, as well as when you come to the point in your life where you truly appreciate what’s important.  JD shares his utter joy at becoming a grandfather, and once again offers great advice, this time on the topic of how to be a welcoming and supportive in-law to your child’s spouse.  We learn how his parents struggle with dementia and Alzheimer's lead him to becoming a Eucharistic minister, and how it has changed his life.  Mentions of his wife, son and daughter throughout the entire episode make it clear how much they mean to him, and how proud he is of his ever-growing family.  Finally, we touch on how the younger generations, especially Millennials and GenZ, view Boomers in general.  As expressed earlier, JD does not fit the typical “Boomer reputation” in any way, and we thoroughly enjoyed hearing his story as well as his outlook on life and thank him for sharing valuable advice and insight!Visit Us At:https://genxadultingpodcast.comhttps://www.tiktok.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.instagram.com/genx.adulting/https://www.facebook.com/genxadultinghttps://www.youtube.com/@genxadultinghttps://x.com/genxadultinghttps://www.amazon.com/shop/genxadultinghttps://shop.genxadultingpodcast.com#family #marriage #children #grandchildren #lacrosse #college #jamesmadisonuniversity #youthsports #music #dazedandconfused #cisco #ciscosystems #y2k #internet #software #sales #travel #inlaws #dementia #alzheimers #catholic #eucharisticminister #boomer #boomers #podcast #interview #genx #generationx #fyp #fypシ゚ #fyptiktok #fypyoutube #podcastclips #over50 #phasesoflife #relationship #memories #genxtalks #genxmemories #over40 #parenting #emptynest #opennest #adultchildrenCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome Craig Salazar, the Producer and Co-Host of “The Steph & Craig Show” podcast.  Being a Xennial/elder Millennial, Craig shares how his childhood closely resembled a typical GenX childhood.  Growing up in the town of Grantsville, Utah, which is situated in a valley surrounded by beautiful mountains, Craig spent his formative years playing baseball and riding his bike with friends all over town.  He touches on how the lack of emotional development that is common for many GenX and elder Millennial boys was dealt with through physical altercations with his older brothers as well as friends at school.  His parents divorce resulted in sporadic involvement from his dad in his life, which just added to the disconnect he had already been feeling from his father.  After graduating high school, Craig spontaneously headed to Minnesota to have a whirlwind romance, or two, before ultimately returning home a few months later.  A move to Salt Lake City led to meeting his first wife, the adoption of his first daughter and the birth of his second daughter.  Craig reflects on the joys he experienced while being a stay-at-home dad for several years, while continuing to hustle with part-time jobs to help support his family.  After moving the family back to Grantsville, Craig eventually became a corrections officer and ultimately a police officer.  His insight into both experiences is riveting, as is the story of why he was fired.  After the divorce from his first wife, Craig married his current wife Stephanie and they became a family of six, with Craig becoming a father to his third daughter and son.  Life after leaving law enforcement resulted in a spiritual awakening that led Craig to ThetaHealing as well as the “Energy is Love” podcast, where he would host various guests from the spiritual and healing world, in addition to sometimes co-hosting with Stephanie.  A pivotal moment in Craig’s life was discovering the Evryman men’s organization, followed by a year of intensive therapy using MDMA that both he and Stephanie participated and flourished in.  Craig shares how the therapy, in addition to microdosing psilocybin, opened the door for the couple to live their most authentic life.  A move to Tennessee followed, where the couple built the studio for their current project, “The Steph & Craig Show” podcast, which is a culmination of their life’s journey, work and healing that was created to connect, resonate and help people feel understood.  We also touch on the importance of a woman’s partner putting in the effort to educate themselves about perimenopause in order to be a truly supportive partner.  We loved going on the ride of Craig’s story, and look forward to becoming regular listeners of “The Steph & Craig Show” to continue to learn and be inspired!Visit Craig at:https://www.stephandcraig.co/https://www.tiktok.com/@stephandcraighttps://www.instagram.com/steph.and.craig/https://www.youtube.com/@stephandcraig/?sub_confirmation=1https://www.facebook.com/stephandcraigUs:https://linktr.ee/genxadultinghttps://www.tiktok.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.instagram.com/genx.adulting/https://www.youtube.com/@genxadultingCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome Dr. Patrick Lynch to the studio.  Pat shares about being a child of divorce that included estrangement from his mom and a strained relationship with his dad and step-mom.  After some typical GenX childhood antics, Pat was sent to military school at Riverside Preparatory Academy for high school.  There he learned to follow a strict regimen where he ultimately thrived and earned the privilege of leading his own platoon of cadets.  After graduation he almost immediately moved to Ashland, Oregon to attend Southern Oregon University.  During his time in Ashland Pat found a space where he could find and honor his authentic self.  Pat’s diverse experience in Ashland included attending classes, making friends of various backgrounds, learning to be a professional painter, immersion in yoga, meditation and breathwork, being a caretaker of a beautiful property and even meeting his future wife.  Pat reflects on his reunification with his mom after almost two decades, in addition to reconnecting with other family members from his father’s side while living in Santa Cruz.  He also shares when he first realized he was colorblind, and how that has affected his life.  We learn about his passion for snowboarding and the exciting experiences surrounding it, including snowboarding in Valdez, Alaska.  We are also offered a glimpse into his Ayahuasca experience in Washington state.  The birth of his son brought immense joy, purpose and fulfillment.  A move to Portland, Oregon to study Chinese medicine was followed by a move to Bend, Oregon where Dr. Lynch opened his current practice.  Dr. Lynch serves his patients by focusing on the root of infection in the body that may be the cause of chronic illness, including autoimmune diseases.  Dr. Lynch’s protocol has healed many people, including some who have found Dr. Lynch as their “last stop” after seeing numerous doctors and spending hundreds or thousands of dollars.  We highly encourage anyone who is suffering from disease or chronic illness to consult with Dr. Lynch about their symptoms, as he is a wealth of knowledge on health and getting to the root of illness.  We truly enjoyed Pat’s life story, and plan on having him return as a guest to provide a deeper dive into his knowledge on yoga, meditation, breathwork and healing the root cause of disease.  Dr. Lynch's Web Site & Health Resources:https://skyridgeacupuncture.com/https://trilliumhealthsolutions.com/https://www.youtube.com/@DrPatrickLynchDr. Lynch's Social Media:https://www.tiktok.com/@drpatricklynch12https://www.instagram.com/drpatricklynch/https://www.youtube.com/@DrPatrickLynchVisit Us At:https://linktr.ee/genxadultinghttps://www.tiktok.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.instagram.com/genx.adulting/https://www.youtube.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.amazon.com/shop/genxadulting#health #autoimmunedisease #thyroiddisease #hashimotos #hashimotosdisease #lupus #ms #rheumatoidarthritis #ra #thyroiditis #militaryschool #family #ayahuasca #divorce #chinesemedicine #colorblind #estrangement #snowboardingCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome Ali, a GenZ / Zillennial who spent most of his formative years growing up in Morocco, where most of his family still resides.  Ali tells us about the beauty and culture of Morocco, and how it is a great destination as it offers so many different experiences from the beach to the mountains to the desert.  We learn about his move from Morocco to St. Petersburg, Florida with his mother, father and older brother where he spent his preschool years to first grade until they all moved back to Morocco after his mother’s unexpected deportation.  Back in Morocco, Ali attended a private American school where he was taught a similar curriculum to what was being used in the US, and played various sports against schools from different parts of Morocco.  In addition to learning English while in America and French in Morocco, Ali also learned Darija, a Moroccan dialect of Arabic, in the home.  After his sophomore year in high school, Ali moved back to St. Petersburg and went through the adjustment of not only living in America again, but experiencing American high school culture.  After graduation, Ali attended Florida State University.  He reflects on his time living on his own, joining a frat after only being back in American culture for 2 1/2 years and putting himself through college.  We learn about his first job in the corporate world post-college, and the experiences he learned while there that he took to his next/current job at SAP, which led him to a move to Boston.  A return to Florida a year later found him living in Fort Lauderdale with Nick Wucher, the Co-Founder and Creative Director of the brand YIFNO (Yo It’s F*cking Nice Out) (Episode 30), with an eventual move to Miami where he currently resides.  Ali shares about his father’s battle with Parkinson’s Disease from the age of 47 and how Deep Brain Stimulation, a brain surgery he received at the age of 62 at Tampa General by Dr. Oliver Flouty, removed the Parkinson’s symptoms and gave his father back an active and healthy life.  It’s truly a miracle!  Ali shares insight into the dating scene for his generation which includes touching on situationships, dating apps, coffee dates and chivalry.  Ali also offers some life advice for the younger generations coming after him.  We loved having Ali in the studio to share his story and have already added Morocco as a destination on our travel bucket list!  We can’t wait to have him back in the future to hear where his journey has taken him.Tampa General Hospital:https://www.tgh.org/?utm_source=ExtNet&utm_medium=YextDr. Oliver Flouty:https://www.getcare.tgh.org/providers/oliver-flouty-1265790356Visit Us At:https://linktr.ee/genxadultinghttps://www.tiktok.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.instagram.com/genx.adulting/https://www.facebook.com/genxadultinghttps://www.youtube.com/@genxadultinghttps://x.com/genxadultinghttps://www.amazon.com/shop/genxadulting#parkinsonsdisease #parkinsonsawareness #brain #deepbrainstimulation #morocco #travel #yifno #dating #genz #datingadvice #fsu #floridastateuniversity #kappasigma #miami #tampa #ftlauderdale #sap #corporate #jobCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family

In this episode we welcome Marlon, a Genxer from Trinidad who became an American citizen.  Marlon describes the differences between Trinidad and Tobago, known as the “Twin Islands”.  He shares his family background rooted in both Hindu and Arawak, and how coming from a blending of both led to him being exposed to overt racism from his own family.  We learn about his formative years in school in Trinidad, in addition to the sports, food, weather, government system and overall culture of Trinidad.  A particularly riveting story Marlon shared with us reflects on the time he was “scooped up” and arrested with other men that resulted in a two week stay in prison before he was finally released.  He shares about his years of being punk and being a member of a punk band, and how a moment at a party when he used a computer for the first time led to his first job at a newspaper on Trinidad where he started in classifieds and eventually worked on the front page.  Working on a project that involved Mariah Carey gave him the opportunity to come to America for the first time which led to his goal of moving to America and becoming a citizen.  We learn about his time living in Miami, as well as the time he was homeless but still maintained a job that had a commute that required a lot of creativity, determination and time, and even included having to hang out in the Miami Airport some nights.  Marlon’s work ethic shines as we learn about the many positions he’s held at various businesses as he’s built his reputation not only in graphic design, but as an exceptional individual.  We learn about his wonderful 11 year relationship with his girl, and how he makes time for his passions, one being his dedication to working out.  In addition to the many creative outlets Marlon has, including music, he is currently working on a children’s book!  We were very impressed with Marlon’s dedication to creating and making time for the things that are important to him, and enjoyed learning about what and who inspires him, one of which includes Tony Robbins.  We were honored to hear Marlon’s amazing story of courage, determination, creativity and talent and are truly inspired by what he shared.  We look forward to having him return in the future!  Visit Us At:https://linktr.ee/genxadultinghttps://www.tiktok.com/@genxadultinghttps://www.instagram.com/genx.adulting/https://www.facebook.com/genxadultinghttps://www.youtube.com/@genxadultinghttps://x.com/genxadultinghttps://www.amazon.com/shop/genxadulting#trinidadandtobago #trinidad #america #citizen #graphicdesign #gym #workingout #artist #job #corporate #purpose #life #courage #advice #inspiration #tonyrobbins #punk #music #band #author #homeless #MariahCarey #prison #miami #airport #genx #podcast #interview #fyp #fypシ゚ #fyptiktok #fypyoutube #podcastclips #over50 #generationX #80s #70s #memories #instagram #tiktok #tiktokvideo #tiktokviral #genxtalks #genxmemories #over40 #childhood #americandream #immigrant #immigration #comingtoamericaCheck us out at genxadulting.com#generationx #genx #podcast #marriage #relationship #interview #mom #family
