It's Gonna Get Messy.by Becca Eve Young She built the life she was supposed to want—a high-flying career, a marriage, a carefully crafted plan. Until everything came crashing down. A dear friend dies. Her marriage unravels. She's laid off while alone in a foreign country as a global pandemic hits. Then, just when she thinks it can't get worse, she gets the call that her father has died.Stranded in rural Mexico, cracked open by grief, she experiences a supernatural encounter under the full moon that sets her on a wild, often hilarious, sometimes heartbreaking journey. From car crashes and chaotic hookups, to silent meditation retreats, psychedelic revelations, robberies, and mystical moments—this is what happens when life blows up and a woman dares to say yes to becoming someone new.Becca's journey is raw, hilarious, and a deeply human memoir that reads like fiction. What starts as a freefall becomes a wild quest to untangle grief, rewrite old stories, and rediscover her own worth. Told with spiritual sass, hard-won wisdom, and gut-punching honesty, this incredible true story is for anyone who's ever felt lost in their own life and is searching for more. For fans of Glennon Doyle, Chelsea Handler, Gabrielle Bernstein, and Elizabeth Gilbert, this is a raw, funny, and soul-stirring invitation to remember who you are—and reclaim the freedom to become who you were always meant to be.Just know: it's gonna get messy.Want to be a guest on Book 101 Review?

This week, I am joined by Ben Bruno—a Los Angeles–based trainer whose client roster ranges from professional athletes to musicians, actors and models. Known for his no-nonsense approach, Ben believes that while every person is different, the principles of good training remain the same: simple, consistent, and effective work tailored to the individual. In this conversation, Ben cuts through the noise of social media fitness trends and breaks down what really works for building strength, staying mobile, and aging well. With nearly two decades of experience, he's trained stars like Jessica Biel and Chelsea Handler, yet his message applies to anyone with a goal, a positive attitude, and the willingness to work hard. In this episode, Ben Bruno shares why consistency and the basics always outperform flashy trends, and how real-world training differs from what we see online. He breaks down the three pillars of longevity—strength, mobility, and conditioning—explains why full-body workouts often work best, and highlights the key exercises everyone should master. Ben also dives into how women can stay strong and confident into midlife, the dangers of comparison culture, and why sustainable, smart training beats gimmicks every time. *** Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for more conversations at the intersection of brain science and performance.

Today, you'll learn how to stop playing small and step into the bigger life that's waiting for you. You'll learn how to stop shrinking, stop explaining, and start claiming what you want without guilt, apology, or second-guessing. Whether you're coming out of a breakup, burnout, or just a version of life that no longer fits, this conversation will show you how to reinvent yourself from the inside out. You'll hear what happens when you finally give yourself permission to live life the way you really want. Because let's be honest: How many times have you talked yourself out of what you want… before you even tried to go get it? That job. That conversation. That version of yourself you know you're capable of being. You feel the pull. But then comes the doubt. And you quietly decide, “That's not for me.” This episode is here to challenge that. And change it. Mel sits down with Chelsea Handler, one of the most successful comedians of all time, a six-time #1 New York Times bestselling author, and someone who's spent decades breaking rules, saying exactly what she thinks, and reinventing herself in public. But this is not the Chelsea you think you know. This conversation is about the version of Chelsea you haven't seen – the woman who's done the inner work, faced down regret, and come out the other side with more clarity, peace, and power than ever before. You'll laugh. You might cry. And you will absolutely see yourself in this. If you've ever walked through life thinking “that would be nice… but not for me,” that ends today. This is the permission slip you've been waiting for. You'll learn: -How to let go of the expectations, labels, and roles that aren't yours anymore -What it means to claim what you want – and actually go get it -The mindset shift that makes true confidence possible -How to stop managing everyone else's comfort and start living for you -What it really takes to stop caring what people think -How to pick yourself back up after regret, loss, or failure This conversation will challenge you. It will surprise you. And it will make you think differently about what you're actually capable of. You have a reservoir of strength that you don't even know about, and today you're going to learn how to tap into it. For more resources, click here for the podcast episode page.

Chelsea Handler has achieved massive success, from her latest Netflix special The Feeling to her worldwide tours to her Las Vegas residency. But as she discusses with Mike, and details in her new book I'll Have What She's Having, she wasn't always on top of the world. Chelsea tells Mike about bombing badly at Just For Laughs, and how some advice from Jane Fonda helped her during a difficult time. Plus, the story of when Chelsea unintentionally drove a giant bag of cocaine across the country, and why she felt compelled to confront Woody Allen with a very dark joke.Please consider donating to the Carter Center
