It's Always Brunch with Megan & Shannon
Join Megan and Shannon for real talk between girlfriends about dating, relationships, love, and sex… all the things we talk about over mimosas at brunch or during the hours and hours we spend on the phone like we’re back in high school.
As two modern, evolved, sexy, and fiery women in our 40s navigating the dating world, we are sharing our very relatable experiences to empower you to take ownership, accountability, and ultimately take charge of your romantic life whether you’re single or in a relationship. It’s about understanding who you are and investing in yourself to raise your frequency and experience everything your heart desires!
We also support the sexy, fun, curious men growing alongside us on this journey. Men who are mature and who are also emotionally available, open, and in tune with their wants and needs and looking to understand the women in their lives better.
There’s a new model of what the modern relationship can look like and we’re here to help create it. Communication, connection, alignment, passion, pleasure…let’s consciously create it together!
And don’t forget to grab your mimosa - because here It’s Always Brunch with Megan & Shannon! Cheers!

How to Have Hard Conversations- Part 1
Today we tackle a pretty big topic- how to have hard conversations….yikes!
Never fear S&M are here to break it all down into digestible pieces to help you with your next hard convo.
· Why is it so hard to have difficult conversations?
We talk about different fears that contribute to why it feels so hard to communicate how you’re feeling.
· Why is it so important to have them?
Coach Shannon sums it up perfectly- You either have difficult conversations or difficult relationships. Choose one.
· Why should we NOT avoid them?
Resentment and contempt= SUPER unhealthy
· How do I have a difficult conversation? What do I need to know?
We talk about what we recommend to prep before the convo.
· How do I manage the conversation?
We discuss being clear, honest, and respectful as well as choosing your words wisely and staying on track.
Stay tuned for Part 2 where we’ll dive into validation and triggers and what happens if things go sideways.
