Lipstick on the Rim

Calling all sign seekers and intuitives-in-training! Molly and Emese get spiritual (but keep it grounded and practical) with psychic medium and spiritual teacher MaryAnn DiMarco—aka “MaryAnn the Medium”—author of The Guide(s) Book: Mapping Out Life’s Journey with Spirit by Your Side. They dive into what your intuition actually is, how to decode signs from the universe, and the real difference between a psychic and a medium. MaryAnn explains why she believes everyone is psychic, how to tell the difference between gut instinct, imagination, and anxiety, and simple ways to build a spiritual practice that feels authentic (even if you hate meditating). She also shares her idea of “habitual check-ins,” how to create a spiritual to-do list, and what it looks like to let the universe help you map your life like a guided road trip instead of a solo mission.  A conversation all about following the signs, strengthening your intuition, tapping into your own medium abilities, and discovering your purpose and life path—one message from the universe at a time.

What if finding “the one” doesn’t happen on the timeline you expected? From dating in your 20s to finally meeting your person in your 30s, 40s, or even 50s, this week Molly and Emese are talking love, timing, and why it’s never too late. Molly and Emese get personal, sharing their own love stories — the heartbreaks, the false starts, the funny (and sometimes painful) lessons — and how they ultimately met their husbands later in life. They dive into what it’s really like to date when you feel “behind,” why timing matters more than age, and how to know when someone is truly right for you. We’re covering everything from red flags and green flags to money values, emotional readiness, the “right person, wrong time” myth, and what it actually means to treat dating like a job. Whether you’re single, dating, divorced, or just discouraged, this one’s for you. Because love doesn’t run on a schedule — and sometimes, being “late” means you get exactly who (and what) you were meant for.

Why can’t women sleep? From tossing and turning through the night, to the 3AM wake-up call that feels impossible to recover from, insomnia is one of the most common issues women face — especially during perimenopause and menopause. Molly and Emese sit down with leading sleep expert Dr. Shelby Harris to unpack the science of women’s sleep and the real fixes that actually work. We cover everything from why hormones, stress, and parenting fatigue wreak havoc on REM cycles to evidence-based strategies like CBT-I (cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia), sleep hygiene hacks, and supplement myths. Dr. Harris also sets the record straight on the biggest viral myths  — does age really mean you need less sleep? Does “before midnight” sleep count more? How much do women actually need? — and shares what every woman in her 30s, 40s, and 50s should know about protecting sleep for better brain health, mood, and longevity. Because better sleep isn’t just rest — it’s your key to sharper thinking, steadier mood, and better aging Mentioned in the Episode: The Women's Guide to Overcoming Insomnia: Get a Good Night's Sleep Without Relying on Medication by Dr. Shelby Harris TIMESHIFTER App Topical Magnesium Green Compass Full Spectrum Daily Nano Jellies Hatch Alarm A Sony Music Entertainment production.  Find more great podcasts from Sony Music Entertainment at sonymusic.com/podcasts and follow us at @sonypodcasts  To bring your brand to life in this podcast, email podcastadsales@sonymusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.
