    Whatcha Been Watchin'?

    Network TV, Streaming....It's been a long 17 months of watching.  Please listen until the end, because Alex and I talk about a show that started the idea for this episode to begin with.  Better Things is about a single Mom, raising 3 daughters.  The main character, Sam (flawlessly played by, Pamela Adlon) is honest, funny, and facing every obstacle with deep love.   This show proves something I've talked about many times on the podcast, although journeys are not identical, there are common threads among them.  My story is not exactly like this character, but the meaning and premise is impactful and even aspirational for me.   Enjoy!

    And the Emmy Goes too.......

    This week, my returning guest and I, talk Emmy Awards.  Over the past 18 months I've relied on TV to fill more lulls than in previous years.  I rarely even pay attention to the Emmy's, but this year since I watched more, thought it would be fun to do a run down and see if my guest (Alex...previously on the podcast) had any matches on what we've watched.  Listen and see if you share the same opinions!

    In this day and AGE!

    Ageism!  Whether you are 50+ and starting over professionally or losing hours because someone younger was hired to do the same job for less $, it's an obstacle I've faced.  This week I'm talking about a personal struggle and hoping it resonates with others and even opens the eyes of some.  Over 50 and starting over professionally....post Covid!  Double whammy!   Forget salary commensurate with experience!  How can you even get picked out of a stack of resumes?!  Please join me for this personal episode.  Spread the word!   I'm looking for guest(s) that might have experience in this topic, so please reach out.   thenestbigthingpodcast@gmail.com   Leave a voice message below.

    An Episode to be Proud Of!

    This week, I'm joined by a dear friend for a personal conversation about Pride Month.  What does this time mean to us?  How far has our society come?   What I love most about this episode?  It's 2 generations coming together discussing a topic, that might otherwise not be shared between people with completely different life experiences.  I am so grateful for this time.  I hope you enjoy the episode, as much as we did recording it. I'd like to shed light on a fantastic organization, providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to LGBTQ youth.   The Trevor Project.  If you need support, they have 24/7 line:  866-488-7386  www.thetrevorproject.com Informational resource:  www.lgbtqiahealtheducation.org
