Ep. 010 | Solo Session: The Unexpected Reset, Motherhood & Me
This episode is a little different — it’s just you and me. No guest, no co-host, no chaos… well, actually there is chaos, but it’s mine.
Back in May, I got laid off. Yep. Not on my 2024 bingo card. And while I can laugh about it now, it absolutely sent me into a full identity crisis, a motherhood juggling act, and a “who am I without a job title?” spiral. But here’s the twist: that curveball is exactly what made this podcast possible.
In this solo episode, I’m talking about what this unexpected reset has taught me — from rebuilding my confidence to learning to sit in the suck, to recognizing that human connection is the only thing keeping me from fully unhinging some days.
And because you all always come through… I’m answering your listener-submitted questions, including:
✨ What’s one thing I had to unlearn from childhood as a wife and mom?
✨ What’s the wildest thing I’ve done that no one knows about?
✨ Which celebrity I’d drop everything for, immediately.
✨ Do I want more kids? (The answer may surprise you!)
From recording episodes in the DTLA library (yes… a library) to finding a new studio, new freelance work, and honestly a new version of myself — this season has been messy, humbling, hilarious, and surprisingly beautiful.
Let’s get cozy… and let’s get connected.💛
