Episode 74
Sunday, 5 April, 2026
EPISODE DESCRIPTION What if the next chapter of your life wasn't about doing more… but about experiencing more? Today, so many women are realizing that what truly matters aren't the things we own—but the memories we create and the moments we share. And one of the most joyful, meaningful ways to do that? A girlfriend getaway. In this uplifting conversation with Marita Littauer, we explore the power of stepping away from your everyday routine and reconnecting—with yourself and with the women who truly see you. Because these shared experiences aren't just "nice to have"… they can be deeply energizing, confidence-boosting, and even life-changing. We'll also share simple, practical guidelines to help you plan a getaway that feels easy, fulfilling, and genuinely fun—without the stress or overwhelm. If you've been craving more connection, more laughter, and a little spark of adventure… this episode might just be your invitation to say yes. AFFIRMATION of the MONTH: I thrive in the magic of unknown destinations and embrace new travel experiences GUEST BIO Speaker, Writer, Blogger, Author From the age of nine, when Marita's parents began teaching The Personalities and her father developed the popular Personality Profile, Marita's life has been immersed in The Personalities. Many of her 20 books address the topic. Today, Marita continues to speak and write on The Personalities, the subject of her best-selling book, Wired That Way. Through her online store, hundreds of people each month take the electronic version of the Wired That Way Personality Profile which helps them discover how embracing personality differences can lead to deeper connection, less conflict, and more peace in their most important relationships. In 2025, she expanded her work by developing an online certification course, training men and women to teach The Personalities. Additionally, in the fall of 2022, Marita launched The Best-Life Project—a vibrant online resource designed to encourage and equip women over 60 to live their best life. Since its inception, the site has grown to feature hundreds of articles from numerous contributors covering topics relevant to women 60+. Personally, as a hobby chef, Marita enjoys hosting dinner parties and often shares her recipes through social media and The Best-Life Project blog. She also creates custom, décor-specific, large-scale paintings—with pieces in homes from coast-to-coast. Marita attends sporting events with her husband, travels, and spends time with friends.
