    Dear Diary

    Dear Diary

    With this weeks episode I'm opening up one of my most vulnerable spaces and sharing snippets of the journal I kept while going through my separation and divorce. Through a 3 month time frame I share the hurt of not feeling love, and how love can somehow turn to hate. Throughout all of it though, I continued to bet on myself and have the strength.

    Better to Have Loved and Lost

    Better to Have Loved and Lost

    My life has been in a weird state of peace, to where I'm thinking... should I do something toxic?! Not really, but I have found this new state of confidence and calm while dating where lessons seem to be clicking. I recently looked back on my past relationship and have thought about where I would want to change things in dating moving forward. Was there anything I overlooked or how can I stay more intentional. Also, what were new to me in this past relationship that has now raised the bar. If we don't look back on our lessons, do we ever really learn anything?

You go girl

Held my attention! Which is what you want a podcast to do
I once heard a comedian ( I think it was Louie Ck go figure) explain why men get paid more. Because when the ship starts to go down it’s “women and children first” The indecent exposure comedian kinda has a point.It will be interesting to take this journey with you! Have a blast !
