Quiet The Clock

What happens when you freeze your eggs at 39, leave a high-pressure TV career, and finally stop forcing life to follow a script? In this episode of Quiet the Clock, Beth sits down with Julie LaPlaca, who went from producing The Bachelor to becoming a hypnotherapist, to explore fertility, fear, and the art of trusting yourself when society's timeline grows louder. Julie opens up about her decision to freeze her eggs at 39, the emotional weight of age and societal expectations, and what it really felt like to step away from a career that looked "successful" on paper but no longer fit. She shares how hypnotherapy, spirituality, and nervous system work helped her move through uncertainty, reconnect with her intuition, and soften into life instead of white-knuckling it. We also dive into Julie's upcoming book, The Love Producer, where she explores love, vulnerability, and the courage it takes to stop performing and start living authentically. If you're navigating fertility decisions, questioning your career path, or feeling behind in any area of life, this episode is a reminder that there is no expiration date on becoming yourself.   ABOUT OUR GUEST: Julie LaPlaca is a seasoned television producer with over two decades of experience working in the entertainment industry. Most notably, she spent years crafting some of reality TV's most iconic love stories as a supervising producer on The Bachelor franchise. She is also an author, life coach, hypnotherapist, and the founder of The Love Producer, a personal development brand devoted to helping others produce the love they desire in their lives.  Julie writes about her transition from producing happily-ever-afters for others, to embarking on her own journey for love in her upcoming memoir, The Love Producer, releasing in July 2026. She is now dedicated to flipping the script—guiding others (and herself) on the greatest journey of all: finding the love within.
