Hi, I’m Dorothy Cascerceri Simone, and I’m taking you on a glamorous ride inside one of the bougiest, over-the-top zip codes in the country where I’m peeling back the layers beyond the lavish, luxurious lifestyle of That Greenwich Life. I’ve spent years as a magazine editor and media personality. I’ve interviewed A-listers like Brad and Angelina and talked celebrity news on just about every major TV network. I’ve worked for People magazine, In Touch Weekly and Life & Style, but these days with a new baby and an 8-year-old, I’ve traded in red carpets for the lacrosse field sidelines of Greenwich CT – but make no mistake my shoe collection is not collecting dust. In a town of Bentleys and Birkin bags – I own neither – I’m not apologizing for wearing Forever 21 with my Fendi. Join me each episode for authentic and unfiltered conversations about the real, raw relatable human experiences we all share whether you have 50 dollars or 50 mill in the bank: We’re ALL struggling with something. Those BIG things in your life you wish you could change - the things that make 2am to 6am the hardest and longest part of the day. For me, it was a years-long trauma-filled fertility journey, but for you maybe it’s finding love, your career, your kids, your aging parents, or your marriage. Together, we’ll search for the best in the worst of times, find joy, peace and purpose in the mess, and transform, heal – and dare I say have loads of fun - as we grow. One thing I’ve learned is no matter how fancy or important you think you are, we are all joined on this journey called life. So let’s talk . About your life, my life. Our life. THAT GREENWICH LIFE. Follow us now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you enjoy your shows.
Welcome to Episode 44 of That Greenwich Life! This episode marks the final episode of Season One, and I'm taking a moment to reflect on the incredible journey this podcast has been.When I launched this show last year, I had no idea what it would become—how many people it would positively impact, how deeply personal it would get, and how much it would push me to grow. Over the past year, I've shared my own stories and the stories of my incredible guests about motherhood, grief, career pivots, personal reinvention, and all the messy, beautiful, complicated moments in between. But as I always say on this show, we have to listen to what's right for us. And right now, I know it's time to pause, reset, and make space for what's next. In this episode, I'm sharing:• Why I'm taking a break—and why pausing is sometimes the most powerful decision.• How stepping away from something can help us grow in new ways—personally, creatively, and professionally.• What's next? I may not have all the answers, but I'm embracing the “we'll see” mindset. Thank You to This Season's Sponsors:I am beyond grateful to the sponsors who made this season possible.

Welcome to Episode 43 of That Greenwich Life! If you're looking for travel inspo for your next vacation, this episode is for you. Most of you know I've been a travel writer for over a decade, and if I had a dollar for every person who has asked me through the years, “What's the best trip you've ever taken?” or “What trip should everyone take at least once in their lifetime?,” I'd have my own private jet big enough to fit each and every one of you. This week I'm joined by Harsh Patil, the CEO and founder of Xplorearth, a luxury travel company specializing in bucket-list experiences, to talk more about my answer to both of those questions time and again – African safaris! Harsh shares his deep knowledge of this experience and why you don't need to wait until “someday” to go. We cover everything you need to know—when to go, how to plan, what to expect, and why safaris are so much more accessible than people think (yes, even for families with kids!). Plus, Harsh shares his insider travel tips and some of the other incredible, off-the-beaten-path adventures he curates around the world.In This Episode:• The best time of year to go on safari (hint: it's more flexible than you think!).• How to plan a family-friendly safari and why it's an incredible experience for kids.• Harsh's insider travel recommendations• Why your travel dollars matter—how luxury safaris contribute to conservation and support local communities.

Welcome to Episode 42 of That Greenwich Life! We only have two more weeks until the Season One finale, and this may be one of my favorite shows yet because it's something I've been dying to share with you for months now. If – like me - you've been waking up exhausted, feeling anxious, or you're just looking for a simple and natural way to boost your energy, this episode is for you. I'm diving into something that has completely transformed my sleep, my energy levels, and even my overall well-being—mouth taping! It sounds scary – I know! But I promise you it's not! It forces you to breath through your nose and reap amazing health benefits while you catch your beauty rest. To break down the science behind breathing and why nose breathing is crucial for your health day AND night, I'm joined by Jenn Warwick, a certified breathwork expert and founder of Breathe for Life. Jen explains how the way we breathe impacts our nervous system, our sleep quality, our stress levels, and even our ability to think clearly.

Welcome to Episode 40 of That Greenwich Life! As I'm getting closer to wrapping up Season 1, I'm scrapping my planned topic this week to talk about something real, raw, and deeply personal. As my daughter's 2nd birthday and the 6-year anniversary of my baby's passing approaches within weeks of each other, I'm reminded that dark and light, grief and joy, beauty and pain will always exist side-by-side. Sometimes, life reminds us that certain moments—certain seasons—will always hold weight, no matter how much time passes. If you've ever struggled with loss, trauma, or the complicated emotions that surface during anniversaries of pain, this episode is for you. Grief and healing aren't linear, but they are part of what makes us who we are. The body truly keeps the score. From the trauma of loss to my journey through infertility and ultimately to the miracle of my daughter's birth, this episode is about recognizing how deeply our past remains within us—and learning how to honor it while moving forward.In This Episode:• Why certain times of the year trigger deep emotional responses—and how to navigate them.• My personal journey through loss, infertility, and healing—and what it taught me about resilience.• The moment I realized my body was shutting down from grief—and how I started to heal.• The unexpected full-circle moment that tied my past pain to the birth of my daughter.• The importance of giving yourself grace, space, and permission to feel it all.A heartfelt thank-you to the incredible sponsors who made this episode possible:• Xplorearth: The must-have travel guide for adventure-seekers, luxury travelers, and families looking for unforgettable experiences.

Welcome to Episode 38 of Season 1 of That Greenwich Life! This week, I'm taking a moment to reflect on staying grounded, finding balance, and letting go of the hustle—especially when life (or vacation) feels like a whirlwind. This episode is for anyone who feels like they're always going, planning, doing—but struggling to simply be. After an epic February break with my family—first at Beaches Turks & Caicos, then at The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure in Orlando, Florida—I realized just how much our nervous systems dictate how we move through life. Whether it's rushing from one resort activity to the next, trying to make the most of every moment, or simply forgetting to pause and breathe, this trip reminded me of the power of presence over planning. I also take a deep dive into a difficult chapter of my life—navigating IVF, loss, and the deep emotional toll of it all. Returning to Universal Studios years later, under completely different circumstances, was a powerful full-circle moment that reminded me how much healing can happen over time.In This Episode:• How an over-scheduled vacation made me realize I was still operating in hustle mode.• The difference between being present and just checking things off a to-do list.• The full-circle moment of returning to The Wizarding World of Harry Potter after one of the hardest seasons of my life.• Navigating IVF, loss, and the unexpected ways healing happens over time.• Why true grounding comes from within—not from the perfect plan, place, or schedule.

Welcome to Episode 37 of That Greenwich Life! This week, we're shifting gears and diving into something we all need more of—humor. Because let's be real, life is chaotic, motherhood is exhausting, and the only way to survive it all is to laugh through the madness. Joining me is Megan Schinella, the creator behind one of my favorite Instagram accounts - @meganschinella, where she shares hilarious and oh-so-relatable takes on parenting, social media, and the absurdity of everyday life. Megan's content is the perfect reminder that we don't have to take it all so seriously—and that humor can be one of our greatest tools for getting through tough times. This episode is for anyone who needs a break from the stress, a good laugh, and a reminder that we're all just figuring it out as we go. We talk about everything from raising teens - and their Sephora obsessions - to how social media can be a double-edged sword when it comes to validation and creativity. Megan also shares the incredible story of how Spencer Pratt (yes, Spencer and Heidi from The Hills) ended up collaborating on one of her reels. In This Episode:• Why humor is the best survival tool for motherhood, stress, and everything in between.• The hilarious reality of social media, validation, and dealing with internet trolls.• How embracing imperfection can make life (and parenting) so much more fun. A big shoutout to our amazing sponsors who make this show possible:Room For Paws Pet Resort in Stamford, CT, for taking such great care of our furry family members.

In Episode 36 of That Greenwich Life, I'm diving deep with a special guest into reinvention, resilience, and reminiscing about our wild early days of celebrity journalism (think TRL, red carpets, and texting with Kim Kardashian on a Sidekick) My guest, Amy Palmer, (Instagram: @amypalmertv ) is an Emmy-nominated TV host, journalist, and executive producer who has spent years at the forefront of media.

This episode is for anyone thinking about a fresh start, a career pivot, or simply moving in a new direction in any chapter of your life. We're getting real about the hustle of media entrepreneurship, the importance of trusting your instincts, and why success today looks very different than it did in our 20s. In This Episode:• How Amy and I went from covering pop culture to where we are now• The shift from chasing external validation to building a career that aligns with your values.• The wild, behind-the-scenes stories of early 2000s Hollywood—including a pre-fame Kim Kardashian and Bethenny Frankel.• The evolution of media and why reinvention is essential for staying relevant.• Why today's version of success is all about peace, confidence, and authenticity.

January was such an incredible month, and we're kicking off February with a solo episode that dives deep into self-discovery, personal growth, and a more focused mission for this show. I've been thinking a lot about what truly matters—not just for this podcast, but in my own life. Over the past year, I've navigated some big personal revelations, reevaluated what brings me joy, and made a conscious decision to create a space right here that fosters connection, healing, and authenticity. We don't always have to have everything figured out, and I'm working on giving myself permission to keep things messy and always evolving – with a mindset of “we'll see” – and I invite you to do the same. I played around with the show intro to make sure it really captured the essence of the show - and me, your host. I'm not totally there yet but will keep working on it! In this episode:• Reflections on our Five-Part January 2025 Glow-Up Series and how it's setting the tone for the year ahead.• A behind-the-scenes look at why I updated the show's teaser and trailer—what I've learned about myself and how I want this space to evolve.• Why I didn't turn this into a Greenwich gossip show (despite the temptation) and how my past as a celebrity reporter shaped that decision.• The personal struggles that redefined my perspective—from infertility and pregnancy loss to rebuilding a life that truly aligns with who I am.• The transformative power of the phrase “We'll see”—why it can change the way you approach life's challenges and uncertainties.• A beautiful quote from Yung Pueblo that perfectly captures the heart of this podcast and the kind of energy I want to cultivate. This episode is all about stepping into alignment, letting go of what no longer serves us, and embracing the journey—even when we don't have all the answers.

This week in Episode 34 of That Greenwich Life, we're wrapping up our 2025 Glow-Up Series with an inspiring conversation about creating spaces that nurture, comfort, and reflect who you are – no matter the size or location of the place you call home. My guest, Andrea “Andi” Sinkin Jaffe, founder of Andrea Sinkin Design, (Also @Andrea_sinkin_design on Instagram) is a Greenwich-based interior designer whose work has been featured by House Beautiful, Martha Stewart, and New England Home.Andi shares her expertise on turning any home—whether it's a sprawling estate or a cozy studio—into a haven that feels both stylish and deeply personal. And she shares a few ways you can make your space feel like a safe space on every budget. We talk about the power of layering in design, why lighting is key to setting the mood, and how even the smallest updates can make a space feel new and alive. We also reflect on the emotional connection we have to our homes and how making intentional design choices can create a true sense of sanctuary, especially during life's most chaotic seasons. In This Episode:• Andi's journey to building a thriving design business—and why she took the nontraditional path.• Why layering is the secret to creating a cozy and inviting space.• How thoughtful lighting choices can transform a room (and why blue light is a no-go for most spaces!).• The importance of incorporating personal pieces, like a family heirloom or vintage rug, into your design.• Practical tips for reimagining your home without breaking the bank.

In Part 4 of our New Year Glow-Up Series, we're diving into the intersection of sustainability and style – and how you can combat excess consumerism this new year. But don't worry, you don't have to quit shopping altogether! I would NEVER ask that of you. My special guest, Carly Ridloff, is the founder of The Exchange Project (IG:@the.exchangeproject) and I met her back in December at an amazing event she did in Westport, CT, with my friend and Mindset Coach, Julie Vincent, who you have heard on this show before. Carly's innovative concept is redefining how we think about fashion, community, and sustainability. We discuss the inspiration behind her project, the growing problem of clothing waste, and how her events create opportunities to extend the life of pre-loved clothing while building meaningful connections. In this episode, Carly shares how a simple mindset shift can empower us to make a positive environmental impact without sacrificing style. From boutique-like swaps to high-end consignment, The Exchange Project is proof that eco-conscious living can be chic, accessible, and fun. In This Episode:• The origins of The Exchange Project and how Carly transformed her passion into a movement.• Eye-opening truths about fast fashion, clothing waste, and their environmental impact.• Why swapping clothes can be empowering—and how it builds community.• Simple steps to align your style with sustainability in 2025.• Behind-the-scenes stories of reinvention and finding purpose in unexpected places.

Welcome to Episode 32 of That Greenwich Life! In this solo episode, Part 3 of our 2025 Glow-Up Series, I'm diving into an essential but often overlooked part of the glow-up journey: learning to listen to yourself, setting boundaries with intention and how it's possible to communicate those boundaries to others with honesty and kindness. This week I'm reflecting on my own experiences and lessons learned—especially around navigating busy seasons, saying "no" when needed, and embracing the power of intentional decisions.Using New Year's Eve as a springboard, I explore how we can move away from people-pleasing, let go of guilt, and prioritize what truly nourishes our souls, while still honestly communicating our boundaries with people in a caring way. This episode is all about creating space for mindfulness, honoring your needs, and making room for what feels right while still being considerate of others. In This Episode:• Why New Year's resolutions don't work—and why setting intentions instead helps take the pressure off• The importance of slowing down and tuning into what you and your family truly need• Real-life lessons from a busy holiday season and learning to say “no” without guilt• Why setting boundaries isn't selfish—it's essential for your well-being and your relationships• How intentional choices can make space for more meaningful connections in 2025 Thank You to This Week's Sponsors: I'm so grateful for this episode's sponsors, whose support makes this podcast possible:• Illume Fertility: For anyone on a fertility journey, Illume Fertility provides compassionate, personalized care every step of the way.

Welcome to Episode 31 of That Greenwich Life! As we continue our 2025 Glow-Up Series, in Part 2, I'm thrilled to dive into a topic that's more than skin-deep—skincare as self-care. This week, I'm joined by Nicole Caroline, a master esthetician with over 25 years of experience, a celebrity clientele, and a brand-new luxury spa right here on Greenwich Avenue, Nicole Caroline Skin. Together, we explore how caring for your skin can transform your confidence and even your soul.We talk all about overcoming that annoying self-doubt we all experience from time to time and the importance of pausing to really soak in pinnacle moments. She's not just about glowing skin—she's about glowing from within, and her story will leave you inspired to take bold steps in your own life. We also talk practical skincare tips, like the importance of a nighttime double cleanse – cleansing with oil of all things! - to remove makeup and sunscreen, and the magic of her signature ice spheres for depuffing, glowing skin, and even calming your nervous system. Nicole's philosophy is simple but powerful: when you feel good in your skin, it shows in every part of your life. Featured in This Episode:• Why authenticity and uniqueness is your “signature sauce”• How skincare became a healing ritual for Dorothy during difficult times of pregnancy loss, miscarriage and failed IVF.• The connection between self-care, confidence, and building a thriving business or leveling up in any place of your life.• Simple ways to upgrade your skincare routine, no matter your budget or schedule.

It's the 30th episode of That Greenwich Life and the first of 2025! I can't believe how far we've come, and I'm so excited to kick off the year with a super fun special episode with tons of travel ideas as part of That Greenwich Life's 5-part 2025 Glow-Up series this month. No New Year's Resolutions here because – let's be honest – who really keeps them? I know I don't. Instead of only hitting the gym hardcore with the rest of the pack (ok…we can do that also), I'm focusing on five areas of our lives where we could all use just a little bit more self-care, attention and direction. This week in Part 1, I'm joined by my longtime friend and incredible NYC-based travel journalist, Juliet Izon, whose work has been featured in The New York Times, Travel + Leisure, The Wall Street Journal and more. Together – since you all know by now I'm a travel writer as well! - we're sharing travel ideas and tips for every season and school break, whether you're dreaming of a spring getaway, summer escape, or a holiday trip to end the year. From Grenada to Morocco, Norway to San Diego, there's something here for everyone, no matter your style or budget. What's Inside: • February Break Inspiration: Grenada's serene Silver Sands Beach House and my upcoming trip to Beaches Turks & Caicos (with a magical stop at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on the way back to Greenwich!). • Spring Break Favorites: Morocco and Southern Spain for culture and adventure, or Mallorca for a quieter, off-season vibe. • Summer Escapes: Norway's fjords and culinary treasures, or a surprising pick—Vail, Colorado—perfect for hiking and llama treks. • Holiday Travel Magic: Juliet shares her wintertime Lake Placid experience at Lake Placid Lodge, while I talk about the incredible Hotel del Coronado in San Diego.

Now that the holidays are officially over, it's time to look back on the last few weeks and identify what worked well and what just didn't so next year we don't end up in the same unfulfilling patterns during the precious time of the holiday season. Too many of us KILLED ourselves to keep traditions alive that no longer serve us and our families, AND too many of us engaged in extreme people pleasing at a large cost to our own peace. This week I'm also sharing a listener's moving story about finding gratitude amidst unimaginable loss. It's a reminder that the holiday season is not just about perfection but about connection, healing, and joy in the small moments – and prioritizing your mental health.In this episode:• A sneak peek into my upcoming girls' getaway to the Mirabeau Inn & Spa in Rhinebeck, NY, with my best friend, Alison Seponara.• The joy of incorporating new traditions, like tinsel on the Christmas tree, and rethinking old ones that no longer serve us.• Why it's okay to say “no” to holiday obligations and prioritize your family's unique needs.• Reflections on past holidays, navigating childhood traditions with divorced parents, and how those experiences shape my current holiday approach.• The balance between people-pleasing and preserving your peace—and how to make self-care a priority. Thank You to This Week's Sponsors!A big shoutout to Room For Paws Pet Resort in Stamford, CT, for keeping Bleecker happy and loved during our busiest holiday weeks.

This week, I'm sharing some holiday highs, a few stumbles, and why staying flexible is more important this time of year than ever before. From our family's Christmas tree adventure (where nothing went as planned) to balancing holiday to-dos with quiet moments, it's all about finding joy in the unexpected. I also share a bit about past holidays that were tough and how those experiences helped me shift my perspective. We all experience grief around the holidays, and it's so important to leave space to process it. It's not about having a picture-perfect season; it's about finding little ways to make it meaningful, even if that means curling up with a blanket and just enjoying the glow of your Christmas tree. Don't Forget to Shop the Merch!The That Greenwich Life merch makes for great gifts—or just treat yourself! From cozy hoodies to mugs that rival my favorite Yeti, there's something for everyone.

In yet another follow-up to the past two episodes about body image, this week I'm joined by Dr. Shieva Ghofrany, an OB-GYN with 25 years of experience and the founder of Tribe Called V. She has shepherded me – and countless other women and families - through some pretty traumatic medical hurdles, and she is talking all things perimenopause with me this week in the studio. She's dishing about hormonal changes, misconceptions about treatments – especially hormone therapy - and how to manage symptoms like weight gain, hot flashes, low libido and mood shifts. You'll never believe how helpful something as simple as Vitamin D3 is – or watching your alcohol, sugar and caffeine intake! There's no one-size-fits-all approach but she definitely shares some action items. Most importantly, we talk about how self-compassion plays a role in these changes. We have to find a middle-ground between making positive changes and accepting the natural aging process.

This week, we're diving into Part Two of our body image conversation. Everyone faces their own struggles, and while they may vary in size, what truly matters is how significant those struggles feel TO YOU. It's not about whether others think your concerns are valid—it's about how YOU perceive and deal with them. I'm sharing more about my postpartum recovery journey, how hormones and perimenopause play a role, and how intermittent fasting helped me when nothing else seemed to work. We need to shift our perspectives and embrace the beauty of our imperfections. • Connect with me: @DorothyOnTV • Shop Merch & More: DorothyOnTV.comThank you to PodPopuli for hosting me in your Greenwich, CT studio and special thanks to this episode's sponsor: Room for Paws Pet Resort—the ultimate home away from home for your fur babies!

This Thanksgiving, instead of worrying about our bodies or what we've eaten, let's focus on positivity and gratitude. Yes, there's something about every one of our bodies we wish we could change, but while the world may judge our size or shape – and sometimes we are our own harshest critics -- it's our job to remind ourselves that we are beautiful, blessed, and deserving of self-love.This week, I'm sharing my own postpartum recovery struggles and how I've navigated body changes, negative self-talk, and have learned to embrace this season of life (there is not much exercise happening for me these days). Plus, I talk about how Rent the Runway saved my sanity after my daughter was born, the power of body positivity for our kids, and why it's time we all start being kinder to ourselves. • Follow me: @DorothyOnTV • Shop Merch & More: DorothyOnTV.comThank you to PodPopuli for hosting me in your Greenwich, CT studio and special thanks to this episode's sponsor: Room for Paws Pet Resort—the ultimate home away from home for your fur babies!

This week, I'm still reflecting on the post-election mood and no matter which way you voted, we have to find a better way to understand one another, even when we disagree, and we have to find a better way to understand the facts.I'm sharing my go-to resource for staying informed without the drama and false info: Mo News, and I'm joined by Mosheh Oinounou, founder of Mo News and former Emmy, Murrow, and Webby-winning Executive Producer at Fox News, CBS, CNBC and Bloomberg TV. He's one of the smartest guys I know and a personal friend from our days working together at the student newspaper at our alma mater, The George Washington University.As a former journalist, I know how overwhelming news can be, especially when misinformation is everywhere. That's why I'm excited to highlight tools like Mo News that make it easier to get the facts—and why we all need a little more empathy and a lot less noise in our lives. We're also talking about how Greenwich schools are tackling kids' device use and why it matters -- and the new secret weapon for MOM brain – Chat GPT.Don't forget to check out Mo News, follow him on instagram @Mosheh, listen to his daily podcast, subscribe to his exclusive content, including more in-depth interviews and grab some Mo News merch.

The election is over, and whether your candidate won or lost, we ALL have the chance to choose kindness and tolerance toward each other and reject hate every single minute of every single day. It's not often on this show that I talk about specific things that happen in Greenwich that involve other people – afterall it's NOT a gossip show even though some would like to hear the juicy dish on this town. But the stories I'm sharing this week needed to be told in the hopes that it will inspire us all to be a bit more tolerant of each other and leave any sense of entitlement we may have behind – whether you live in Greenwich or anywhere else in this world. It's easy to be angry and act on that anger – but it's also easy to be kind, especially when our kids are watching our every move.Follow me for more on Instagram @DorothyOnTv and at www.DorothyOnTV.com and head on over to my Youtube channel to watch full episodes of the show.

It's time to tell the story of how I ended up sharing a private moment – and a drink – with one of the biggest rap moguls in music history one night in the early 2000s. He is now in federal custody after being arrested and charged for multiple crimes including sex trafficking with two dozen other lawsuits filed against him accusing him of drugging, assulting and even raping people. You don't want to miss this. In the early days of my career as a celebrity reporter working for People magazine, I was paid to party in New York City, and this is only one of dozens of tales from the vault.

Being sick sucks. Being really sick – I'm talking “hospital” sick, “can't-figure-out-what's-wrong-and-you-have-to-see-a-million-specialists” sick really sucks. It's an emotional roller coaster whether you are the patient or someone you love is. It can be traumatic – I know it was for me when I went through 4+ years of pregnancy loss, miscarriage, and failed IVF – and navigating the healthcare system (and being made to feel like a number instead of a human being) was its own secondary trauma for me and so many others. But my dear friend, Dr. Tracy Shevell, M.D., is changing that for people – with a focus on women – and helping them navigate the most complex health mysteries while at the same time empowering them throughout their journeys. She joined me in Podpopuli's Greenwich CT studio on the most recent episode of That Greenwich Life, and shared an action plan for when -- not if – a health crisis strikes. Follow her on Instagram @tracyshevellmd where she hosts regular “office hours” or find out more about her personalized offerings at her website: www.tracyshevellmd.com She shepherded me through a very confusing medical crisis – a riddle, really with no answer - and for all her clients, she is part therapist, part doctor, all friend.

If you want to live your life as your authentic self – not the person you want others to see – but as you, the real you, then we all know we have work to do and tools to find that can help with that. One of those tools is Human Design. Never heard of it? Yea, me neither, but I learned a lot this week from my in-studio guest, Brianne Cuttler of Be Aligned, an intuitive life and success coach and expert in Human Design. Before we sat down together, I sent her my date of birth (9/1/1981), my time of birth (7:21 pm) and place of birth (Philadelphia, PA) and she did a custom reading (I know – it sounds like astrology but it's not), providing info that helps me understand my soul's energy better so I can more effectively navigate all the energies around me (Brianne – did I get that right?). It's fascinating, it's fun and it's FACTUAL. So much of what she told me, just HIT. You can find out more (and contact her for your own private session) at her Instagram @Be.Aligned.BC and check out her latest offering with one of my favorite people in the world (and a past That Greenwich Life guest – episode 6 - go check her out), Julie Vincent of Clear Space For Joy. Together, starting Nov 7, they are launching The Joyful Alignment Mentorship, a supportive community for sacred discussions and self-discovery through Human Design, mindfulness, and embodied practices.

Have you ever felt like you're giving maximum effort to something but still feeling stuck? You aren't getting the results you want, no matter how hard you try. The truth is, there is something each and every one of us wants to change right this very minute – about ourselves, about our lives, about others (good luck with that!), and there's one place we can all start: we can change our definition of “success.”This week I'm welcoming back to the show one of Instagram's leading advocates for anxiety healing and mental health. You met her a few months back in Episode 4 of That Greenwich Life, “Are We All Just Imposters?” Her name is Alison Seponara, otherwise known as @theanxietyhealer on Instagram (and my best friend of almost 30 years) and she has created a devoted community of more than 570,000 people who turn to her day in and day out. She's the author of two incredible books - The Anxiety Healer's Guide: Coping Strategies and Mindfulness Techniques to Calm the Mind and Body, and her new book is currently available for pre-order, The Anxiety Healer's Guide for Clinicians. She's a licensed therapist with her own private practice, and she's the co-host of the highly successful podcast, The Anxiety Chicks.

This week's episode addresses the whiplash of life we all feel from time to time. That moment of peace and happiness when something great happens and then that low low when things don't go as planned or we get bad news. It's so hard in these moments to cope, keep up and make sense of it all.Stay tuned to the end of the episode for the weekly “Work ON.” Just like we all have our daily and weekly workouts, on That Greenwich Life, I'm leaving you each episode with your weekly “Work ON” -- something small you can think about and do during the week that brings you more peace, balance and introspection.

The quote: “ ‘I just don't want that for myself anymore' is a valid enough reason to stop anything” kicked off this new episode about the power of the word NO. Too often we kill ourselves in the spirit of saying yes to everything – and everyone – and many of us are too afraid to create healthy boundaries. Joining me to discuss this and more is my longtime friend, Public relations powerhouse Gwen Wunderlich, whose company Wunderlich Kaplan Communications has offices in NY, Miami and now Saudi Arabia. She has almost 27 years of experience working with the likes of Alicia Keyes, Bal Harbour Shops, Maserati, Swizz Beatz, the NFL and so much more – and she also created a program called The Enternship in 2014 to help women over 40 reinvent and reshift themselves. Her energy is electric, positive and exactly aligns with That Greenwich Life.

This week's episode was supposed to be a solo ep, but the person who inspired it has been begging me to co-host the show, so this week I'm so thrilled to be joined by my 8-year-old son, Nicholas. I've always said when Plan A doesn't work out – we're talking about the small things in your day-to-day and the larger things in life too – that Plan B is not always the “lesser, back-up plan.” In fact if we keep an open-mind, that B usually stands for Better. My son took it one step further a few weeks back saying, “Mom, the B is for ‘Better Than I Thought.'” It was a great reminder of how much our own stories and clinging to things can hold us back.And stay tuned to the end of the episode for the weekly “Work ON.” Just like we all have our daily and weekly workouts, on That Greenwich Life, I'm leaving you each episode with your weekly “Work ON” -- something small you can think about and do during the week that brings you more peace, balance and introspection.

In this week's episode, joining me to share her inspiring leap is two-time Emmy award-winning national journalist turned entrepreneur, Jillian Mele. You've seen her on Fox & Friends and WPVI-TV in Philadelphia, but she walked away from her dream career because she knew she needed a change, and now she's helping people shape and tell their stories through her latest business venture called Skill Studio. I've known her for 30 years, we've done a few TV segments together through the years, and I know you will love her story as much as I do because it is one of reinvention, courage and listening to your true self.

In this week's episode, we're talking about how important it is to pick a direction when we communicate our needs and desires to others, and how too often we struggle getting clear with ourselves. We think we want one thing but we say we want something different, and then we wonder why the universe isn't giving us what we're seeking.

Have you ever felt imposter syndrome? But what is it exactly? I know I have many times - especially with this new podcast. This week I'm joined by one of Instagram's leading advocates for anxiety healing and mental health to discuss this internal struggle we all have at one time or another in our lives. Alison Seponara, otherwise known as @theanxietyhealer on Instagram (and my best friend of almost 30 years) has created a devoted community of more than 570,000 people who turn to her day in and day out. She's the author of two incredible books - The Anxiety Healer's Guide: Coping Strategies and Mindfulness Techniques to Calm the Mind and Body, and her new book is currently available for pre-order, The Anxiety Healer's Guide for Clinicians. She's a licensed therapist with her own private practice, and she's the co-host of the highly successful podcast, The Anxiety Chicks. In this episode, she shares some valuable insight into what causes us to feel unworthy and how that belief can really hold us back.

In Episode 2 of That Greenwich Life, I'm joined by People Magazine's Beauty and Style Director, Andrea Lavinthal, for a more in-depth discussion of the setting of this show and certainly one of its main characters – Greenwich, CT. You've seen her on The Today Show and the red carpets of all the major Hollywood awards shows. She's my friend, a mom of 2 and fellow Greenwich resident.
