Cannot believe I gave birth two and a half weeks ago already. I also still cannot believe I gave birth. These past few days have been a whirlwind but I still cannot get over how our girl came into this world. As with anything else, I kept it real and raw and definitely too much TMI but I do not gatekeep. I love hearing other birth stories so I feel so grateful to you for listening to mine. It's now my favorite story to tell. I never want to forget a single minute of that day. Child birth is wild, primal, gnarly and transformative. And I wouldn't have it any other way. Women are fucking amazing.

Disco is one of those genres of music where you're probably not going to find a lot of people hating it. In fact, disco really feels like the genre for everyone. In today's episode, I talked with Ethan, one of the founders of Gimme Gimme Disco. He walked me through the development of how the company came to be, the draw of a disco party, as well as future plans for growth of the company. Here's a look at what you can expect in today's episode: An overlook of the Gimme Gimme Disco experience What indicated the need for a disco party in the market The draw to go to the disco shows outside of NYC How Gimme Gimme Disco originally got into the party scene with a viral Emo Night in Brooklyn Expanding their company from Emo to Disco to now additional genres of music The growth of the company and process of recruiting DJs to cover shows across the country and in Canada Future plans for the growth of Gimme Gimme Disco More information about Gimme Gimme Disco: Burwood Media was founded by two lifelong best friends, Ethan & Alex who grew up together in the same neighborhood, Burwood Park in the suburbs of London. Growing up they bonded over their love of music, concerts, and throwing epic parties together. In early 2015, inspired by the music of their formative years, they decided to throw a free party DJ'ing emo & pop punk music at a local bar in Brooklyn. This was the start of what would become national touring brand - Emo Night Brooklyn. After years of hustling (and lots of trial and error!) they then went on to build additional successful event brands including Gimme Gimme Disco, and Best Night Ever. With their years of experience in social media, digital marketing, and building their own unique systems and operations, they began to take on clients and Burwood Media was born.

Happy New Year! Thank you for being here. This is… our year. Around this time of year, many are setting goals, creating vision boards, or getting into new routines. For some, the quickest way to get to a goal is a straight line. For others, it's more of a windy scenic route - but we get there eventually. It just takes some time. In today's episode, here's what you have to look forward to: The 12 Days of Christmas and really what counts as those days Dopamine's effect on your productivity Fertility and the hard reality of being exposed to and responding to the social media announcements for other people's pregnancy journey A reminder that… sometimes you may need to give yourself a break from the constant mental and physical process of trying to conceive - and that's ok.

I'm going to say that 2022 was a lapse in a time warp and was really only four and a half months long… right? Tony Robbins says, “Most people overestimate what they can do in a year and underestimate what they can do in two or three decades.” So with that, take a moment to be proud of all the things you have accomplished in the past year and also strive for greatness in the year to come. Listen in to hear some very important questions to ask yourself, goal setting with SMART goals, and a breakdown to my vision board approach. Here's what you have to look forward to in today's episode: 2022 Reflection Questions The SMART Goal approach to goal setting Manifesting - cause manifesting a parking lot is the same as manifesting a million dollars How I create my vision board for the year and where I place it

After surviving the plague last week + endless hours of binge watching and deep dive scrolling on my phone, I was in critical need of a digital detox. Seriously, I had a hiiiiigh level of Le Anxiété. In today's episode I talk about what finally pushed me to do a digital detox (during the peak season of my online businesses) and the eye openers I found from doing so. Spoiler alert - it was amazing, much needed, and will definitely happen again in the future. If you have also done (or regularly do) a digital detox, share your thoughts with me - digitally - in my DMs.

On today's windy, feverish episode of the podcast, I talk about the 3 shows I've been binging while having the plague.

And if I've said it once, I'll say it again - If you don't know something… Google it.

I don't know if miscarriages are more common now or if people are starting to open up more about their experiences, but I'll tell you one thing… miscarriage needs to be talked about more openly.

I'm here to share with you things we don't talk about enough, how to support someone going through this, and some of the things that a miscarriage could look like. I'm so thankful for the support system I had and if you need me to be that for you, just know that I'm here.

Listen in to hear what the ever-unfolding rose has out for me (and maybe you). Speaking of hard times, the next time someone is not so pleasant in your direction, just remember that they may be dealing with grief. Or crippling back pain. It's the same in my book. Also, we have horses and other animals - kept happy by Old McDonald Tim … and Google.

Recapping my trip to Austin, TX for our annual Beautycounter conference. We laughed, we danced, we took over Rainey street, we worked-ish but more importantly we met a cast of characters along the way. When work trips turn into girls trips that leave you feeling hungover and soul-filled at the same time. Plus, the universe gave me a big ol' welcome back sign. Are the planets still in gatorade?
