    a conversation about processing a long term breakup

    Welcome back! In this week’s episode of Little Miss, my friend Lacey returns to share how she’s been doing a few months after her last episode, where we discussed the end of her eight-year marriage. What has healing looked like for her? What are some of the comments that have helped—and the ones that made things worse? Together, we also break down whether men and women process heartbreak with the same level of empathy. If you’re going through a breakup or trying to navigate heartbreak, this episode is for you. heartbreak, divorce, marriage ending, breakup advice, relationship advice, podcast for women,

    Little Miss Media: a conversation about the best criminal minds episodes, characters and unsubs

    In this episode of Little Miss, Taylor and I are diving into everything Criminal Minds—from our top 3 favorite episodes to our favorite characters and even our most memorable “unsubs.”We break down why characters like Spencer Reid became so loved, and why male characters in TV don’t have to be perfect to be likable. We also talk about what made Criminal Minds stand out, including its emotional depth, nuanced storytelling, and the way it portrayed empathy—something many modern TV shows seem to be missing.If you’ve ever wondered what the best Criminal Minds episodes are, who the most interesting characters are, or why the show still holds up today, this episode is for you.#criminalminds #matthewgraygubler #spencerreid #emilyprentiss #mediapodcast #aaronhotchner #tvshowupdates #tvshowreactions

    a conversation about lifestyle balance

    This week on Little Miss, I revisit the “life balance wheel” — aka the therapy homework that clocked me years ago and still holds up. We’re talking career spirals, mental health honesty, and where my dating life currently stands. Also included: my new foster dog Moose, thoughts on The Pitt, and a little story about the stranger I fell in love with last week. Thanks for listening!

    a conversation about wronged women in media

    In this episode of Little Miss, we’re talking about women in media who were completely wronged—and why we’re still seeing the same patterns play out today. From the latest season of Paradise and the way Shailene Woodley’s character is written, to Nicole in The Summer I Turned Pretty  falling into the "black girlfriend" trope and how Criminal Minds got it wrong with women more than once.. we’re breaking down how female characters are so often misunderstood, villainized, or held to impossible standards. We also zoom out to the bigger picture, discussing how these patterns reflect real life—especially when it comes to the lack of representation and recognition for women and people of color at the Oscars. It’s a mix of pop culture, (Lizzo and Penelope Garcia), and rants about how media can still treat women as second class citizens. -criminal minds, Penelope Garcia , Matthew grey gubler -oscars, sinners, one battle after another, Frankenstein, -paradise, Shailene Woodley, -summer I turned pretty, Nicole ,Conrad fisher, Jeremiah fisher, belly Conklin -black girlfriend trope

    a conversation about my greatest accomplishments

    This week on Little Miss, I’m making a list of my accomplishments — and they range from very niche to genuinely life-changing.I'm starting small with Matthew Gray Gubler smiling at me once (obviously going to make the list !!!) to winning a state robotics comp in 7th grade. After that I'm moving into more serious wins like deciding not to get a nose job despite wanting one for years, dealing with someone literally writing a book about me at 17 years old and choosing to get on psych meds when I needed them several years ago. Thanks for listening y'all and like comment and subscribe please!! #psychiatry #matthewgraygubler #storytime #accomplishments #edrecovery #healingjourney #plasticsurgery #littlemiss #stalker

    a conversation about anxious vs. avoidant attachment styles

    This week on Little Miss, we’re getting honest about anxious vs. avoidant attachment styles — and how they show up in dating, relationships, and yes… even our favorite movies. We use 500 Days of Summer as a case study (because obviously) and break down the anxious/avoidant dynamic between Tom and Summer. Are avoidants actually incapable of commitment? Do they ever get married? Or are we misunderstanding what avoidance really is? We also talk about how our teenage experiences — first crushes, early heartbreaks, family dynamics — can quietly shape the way we attach as adults. Why do some of us cling tighter when things feel unstable, while others pull away the second it gets serious? If you’ve ever wondered why you attract the same type of person over and over, or why “we just can’t be together” feels like a recurring theme in your life, this episode is for you.

    a conversation about "that's a great question. i'd love to tell you."

    This week on Little Miss, I’m joined by Alex from Babes in Bookland  podcast to talk about the memoir That’s a Great Question, I’d Love to Tell You by Elise Meyers. We dive into what we loved about the book, the parts that didn’t totally land for us (unfortunately most of the book,) and the bigger conversation it opens up about influencer culture. From vulnerability online to the pressure to perform authenticity, we unpack how social media personalities shape the way we see success, trauma, healing, and even ourselves. Is being “relatable” the new currency? What message is social media sending to us everyday and how do we avoid buying it if neccessary? And how can we bring nuance and morality into our social media presence? If you’ve read the book or have thoughts about influencers, memoirs, or internet fame, this one’s for you.

    a conversation about building my perfect man

    On this episode of Little Miss, we’re building my perfect man. I’m sharing a little life update — what’s been going on lately, where my head’s at, and what I’ve learned from my recent dating experiences — before diving into the official wish list for my next boyfriend. Yes, we’re getting specific. From the qualities I’m looking for to the long (and well-earned) list of “never agains,” this episode is part reflection, part manifestation, and part public service announcement. If you’ve ever looked back at your dating history and thought, “Oh… that pattern again,” this one’s for you.
