The Dima Podcast

In this powerful and deeply honest conversation, I sit down with Sasha, a therapist whose work centers around healing, alignment, and the courage to be yourself. We explore what it really means to return to who you are: beyond the roles, the expectations, and the version of you that learned how to perform, achieve, and please. Because for many of us, somewhere along the way, being ourselves stoppe...

In this episode of The Dima Podcast , I’m joined by Dana for a conversation about something many high-achieving women quietly experience: the pressure to always hold everything together. For years, many of us learned that being productive, organized, and successful was the way to feel safe. We became the responsible ones. The performers. The ones who get everything done. But what happens when the...

In this episode, I sit down with Karinne for a conversation about the quiet shifts many women experience when life looks successful on the outside, but something deeper no longer feels aligned. Karinne shares her journey from a fast-paced, high-achieving life into a more grounded and meaningful path shaped by grief, healing, nervous system support, Reiki, yoga, and deep inner listening. We talk ab...

Sometimes nothing is wrong — but something doesn’t feel quite right. In this solo episode, I share how I would guide a conversation if we had 90 minutes together to pause, reflect, and reconnect with what’s really going on beneath the surface. This is not about big life changes or having all the answers. It’s a gentle invitation to slow down, notice what feels heavy, and consider one small step fo...

In this short episode, I’m sharing a recap of a brunch I hosted for women last Sunday — and what unfolded around the table. It wasn’t really about brunch.  It was about what happens when women are given space to slow down, reflect, and speak honestly — away from the constant to-do list and the noise of everyday life. I share a few personal observations from the room: women opening up, supporting o...

In this solo episode, Dima explores the quiet exhaustion so many women live with — not from big crises, but from the constant pace of everyday life. Laundry, work, family, commitments, and the pressure to keep going can slowly pull us away from ourselves. This episode is an honest, personal reflection on how rushing, overcommitting, and saying yes too quickly can disconnect us — and how learning t...

In this episode of The Dima Podcast , I’m joined by Moyra for an honest conversation about life after retirement — and what it really looks like to step into your “third act.” We talk about the shift from work identity to personal identity, the many roles women carry (leader, partner, mother, daughter, friend), and what happens when you suddenly have more space… and more opportunities to say yes t...

This podcast isn’t here to push you. It’s here to remind you that you’re not alone, you’re not behind, and you’re allowed to want a life that feels like yours again.

This first episode is a quiet beginning. In this solo conversation, I share why I felt called to start this podcast — not as an expert with answers, but as a woman in the middle of her own transitions, asking deeper questions about pace, purpose, identity, and what it really means to live well. We talk about: The feeling of “Is this it?” that so many women carry quietly Why slowing down isn’t abou...

Burnout doesn’t always arrive with a crash.  Sometimes it’s quiet. Slow. Invisible. In this episode of The Dima Podcast , I sit down with Maia to talk about what burnout really feels like when you’re a woman who’s been holding everything together — showing up, performing, giving — while slowly losing connection to yourself. Maia shares her deeply honest journey through burnout and into renewal:  h...
