• Lessons My Divorce Taught Me (ft. a surprise guest!)
    Nov 18 2024
    Divorce isn’t just an ending—it’s a beginning. In this episode, I’m diving into what my divorce taught me about myself, my needs, and what it truly means to choose yourself. I’m sharing the personal lessons I’ve learned about boundaries, self-discovery, and resilience. Plus, stay tuned for a fun twist: my ex joins me to share his perspective and answer some hot-seat questions. Spoiler alert: things get honest, hilarious, and surprisingly insightful. If you’ve ever faced a major life shift or just want a fresh perspective on self-love, this episode is for you!

  • Nice To Meet Me Show Trailer
    Nov 16 2024

    Welcome to Nice to Meet Me—a podcast about self-discovery that’s part girl talk, part shooting the shit, and mostly me oversharing and giving you unsolicited advice, but with all the vibes. I’m [Your Name], your host and the main character of my own self-love journey, here to help you become the main character of yours.

    Here, we’re diving deep into what it means to truly meet you. From big life shifts and breaking free of the life you thought you had to live to creating habits and routines that actually make you feel like that girl, I’m sharing my stories and bringing in some incredible guests to spill theirs.

    Expect real talk, plenty of laughs, the occasional existential crisis—but make it chic—and your go-to for conversations that feel like late-night talks with your best friend. This isn’t your typical self-help show; it’s the glow-up your soul’s been waiting for.

    It’s fun, it’s raw, and it’s all about you becoming the main character of your own story. So hit play, and let’s meet the version of you you’ve been dying to know.

  • We Survived a Cult! Part 1
    Jun 27 2023

    In this episode, my friend Rosario (@jjunebugg) and I discuss what it was like growing up as Jehovah's Witnesses and how this affected our entire life: mental health, life-changing decisions, relationships, etc. We briefly touch on the trauma that this caused us (we will go more into detail about that in Part 2, coming soon!) and what led us to finally separate ourselves from that organization.


    Disclaimer: All opinions in this episode are our own. Not everyone has the same experience, and we are simply sharing ours. We encourage everyone to do their own research about this religion (especially if you are a member).
