    It Might be Quiet but I'm Not

    In this powerful episode, I’m getting real about something that’s haunted me for years—water safety. Drowning is fast, silent, and terrifyingly common, especially for young children. As a former pool owner, I share the moments thatshook me: the day a guest forgot to watch the pool, and the time my own daughter went under while I was watching like a hawk. And I reflect on a memory from my childhood. These aren’t just stories—they’re wake-up calls. It may be quiet out there by the water...But I am not. Let’s talk about what really keeps kids safe.
