A Conversation with Shame

Hayes is a natural-born advice giver, and luckily, that's exactly what she’s here to offer you every week. What began as a viral internet advice column has grown into something so much bigger — a space for thoughtful conversations about friendship, relationships, and the messiness of being human.
On the Hello Hayes podcast, writer and advice columnist Alexandra Hayes Robinson ("Hayes") shares her signature mix of wisdom, humor, and empathy. Whether she’s answering listener letters, unpacking life’s “ugly feelings,” or reflecting on her own experiences, Hayes makes you feel seen — and maybe even a little more prepared to face whatever’s on your mind.
New episodes every week. Come for the advice, stay for the friendship.
