OHH, I'm Lonely Podcast: Finding Purpose in Loneliness, Together!

Emily Martínez

Hi, my name is Emily. Welcome to “Ohhhh, I’m Lonely”! It’s my podcast about unpacking all the big feelings I have, that usually boil down to loneliness and disconnection from various aspects of my life from career, communities, loved ones, and sometimes just being plain ol' alone. This is where we talk about all the different places loneliness creeps its sweet self into and I try to understand what story that loneliness is trying to tell me. So please join me, because even through it’s lonely here, you aren’t alone.

    Ep. 11 Being a Swing is a Lonely Job w/ Miki Abraham-Grayson of Broadway's SHUCKED! 🌽

    On this episode of Ohh, I’m Lonely! and the second episode of Pride Month (💖🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️) I am delighted to have my internet (now IRL) friend Miki Abraham-Grayson (who has since gotten married since we recorded!!) on the show. Miki (she/they) is an actor and self esteem/career coach. Currently they are part of the cast of the Tony nominated musical Shucked! She is a swing and the first cover for the “Independently Owned” Lulu. A force to be reckoned with onstage and off. I am so grateful to have them on the pod to discuss all things lonely and isolating being a first time swing for a brand new work. It’s a part of the theatre industry that doesn’t get discussed enough and is so vital to keep the production running.  I know Miki is not alone on this journey of learning all that goes along with being a swing/standby/cover/understudy!  So thank you Miki for taking the time our of your busy life to spend time on the pod and for this beautiful conversation. Thank you #SwingNation for doing what you do to keep shows up and running. We would be lost without you!  Find Miki on instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/mikiabraham_/ Interested in boosting your self-esteem?

    Ep. 5 I almost lost my husband a year ago

    This episode fills me with conflict. It's heavy and celebratory all at once. A year ago today I came very close to losing my partner, the most important person in my life, Gabe due to a health scare called Dieulafoy lesion. (accoording to Google: an abnormally large artery (a vessel that takes blood from the heart to other areas of the body) in the lining of the gastrointestinal system). Today I have Gabe safe in my arms but I still live with the fear I had a year ago today when I almost lost him on his birthday and our wedding anniversary. People always check in with someone who has gone through a medical scare, and rightfully so but often times the family and loved ones who have been on the other side, the caregiver side, the ones who were awake for every scary moment don't get asked how we are healing?  We are told to stay strong and praised for it, but those voice go quite when we need to wrapped up in softness for ourselves. I hope I'm not alone in this. I can't be. So, if you are finding this and you needed it too, I'll do the scary thing and talk first. We can do hard things.  Thank you to everyone who has helped,  sent prayers, sent vibes, gave money, lifted us up, and held so much space for us to heal and continue to heal. I love you.  I hope this helps you in some way!  If you have any stories you want to share about post show blues, how you cure them, your self care, or a any general topic about loneliness to contribute to the conversation, please email me here: ohhimlonelypodcast@gmail.com Intro/Outro Song from YouTube Audio Library: "Sunset Dream" by Cheel My little corner of the internet:  Instagram: @emilymartinezofficial Home Decor Insta: @TheWholeBeingHomeThing Youtube: youtube.com/emilymartinezentertainer  If you have any stories or thoughts you want to share about this episode, or a more general topic about loneliness, please email me here: ohhimlonelypodcast@gmail.com I hope this helps you in some way!
