Life Notes

About Life Notes

Life Notes is a voicenote style podcast for thoughtful people in the middle of figuring things out about themselves, their relationships, and what really matters. Hosted by Megan Marie, Life Notes offers short, honest reflections that feel more like a voice memo to a friend than a performance. These are the things that don’t make it to Instagram. The unfiltered thoughts, soft questions, and little bits of clarity that show up while brushing your teeth, walking to the coffee shop, or sitting in the sun. It’s for the ones who feel deeply, who overthink everything, who are learning to trust themselves again. For the ones outgrowing old versions of themselves and soft-launching new ones. For anyone craving a moment of quiet honesty in a loud world. There’s no theme music or polished advice. It's just a place to slow down and listen in. Always raw and always real.

   Listener Question: How to Deal With Emotions When They Feel Uncontrollable - Ep. 50

   This week I'm answering a listener question: "How do you deal with emotions when they feel uncontrollable?" I get into why the hardest emotions, like anger, shame, fear, jealousy, and grief, feel so out of control, and why gaining control has nothing to do with pushing them down, hiding them, or running from them. I talk about what it really means to feel an emotion all the way through, the healthy coping tools to lean on, and daily rituals to keep you steady while you process. I also talk about when it's time to bring in extra support like therapy, and why feeling a big emotion isn't a flaw. Key Themes: Why "uncontrollable" emotions are usually the uncomfortable ones we've been taught to avoid Feeling an emotion all the way through Finding your healthy coping mechanisms Knowing when to bring in extra support like therapy, counseling, or coaching Big emotions as messages about your values, passions, and where you may be abandoning yourself Work With Me: My coaching practice is a space to look more closely at your own life, relationships, identity, health, sexuality, and the things you’re working through. My approach is integrative and deeply personal to you, with the goal of helping you understand yourself more clearly and create a life that feels aligned with who you are.

   The Dating Conversation I Keep Overhearing - Ep. 49

   I keep running into the same conversation lately - overhearing it, seeing it online, hearing it from clients. People saying they just don't have anything left to give to dating or relationships right now. This episode is me unpacking that from a few different angles: why recognizing your own capacity is actually healthy, why I don't think we have to have ourselves fully figured out before we can be in a relationship, and how much of this comes down to how overworked, overstimulated, and oversaturated our lives have become. I talk about the real cost of being constantly plugged in, what it actually takes to open up emotional space for connection, and how to tell the difference between protecting your energy and just staying closed off. Key Themes: The conversation I keep overhearing: "I don't have anything more to give to dating" Why recognizing your own capacity is valuable Letting go of the idea you have to be "fully figured out" before you can be in a relationship How overwork, overstimulation, and being overbooked is draining our capacity for connection Living intentionally and doing what inspires you as a way to create more capacity Finding the balance between honoring where you are and staying open to what's possible Work With Me: My coaching practice is a space to look more closely at your own life, relationships, identity, health, sexuality, and the things you’re working through. My approach is integrative and deeply personal to you, with the goal of helping you understand yourself more clearly and create a life that feels aligned with who you are.

   I Said the D Word & October's Monthly Read - Ep. 48

   I said the word "divorce" on Instagram last week and people had a lot of opinions. It was in the podcast episode too, but less opinions there. It's not a word I use lightly and this episode gets into why it carries so much weight and what it's like to be on the receiving end of everyone else's reactions to it. Which was perfect for October's Monthly Read: Strangers by Belle Burden, a memoir of marriage that's really about the unraveling of one. I talk about how much I saw myself in her story, the strange parallels between how people respond to divorce and how they responded when I had cancer, and why the real gift of a book like this is the reminder that you never actually know what someone else is carrying. Key Themes: Why the word "divorce" carries so much weight, and why I use it carefully October's Monthly Read: Strangers by Belle Burden, a memoir of marriage The strange similarities between how people react to divorce and to cancer How all relationships change in the wake of divorce Rebuilding and reinventing yourself on the other side of an ending Why reading memoirs builds real empathy for what other people are going through The reminder that you never know someone's whole story Work With Me: My coaching practice is a space to look more closely at your own life, relationships, identity, health, sexuality, and the things you’re working through.
