Chooch On The Loose

Well, the cat's out the bag and now you all know I'm recovering from the lovely Delta variant of the Rona, which is why I missed an episode earlier this month. Today's episode is really quick, but I'm a hot ass fucking crying mess sharing a poem I recently wrote about a miscarriage I had in 2017 called "Not Worthy." Sorry for the snot nosed congestion, I had been crying a lot.

My newly found Melanin Sister, Rupa Joshi, joins me from the other side of the pond. We talk boundaries as women of color, self-love, colonization, White people and how they be White peopling, appropriation, healing the inner child and other stuff I can't remember. Rupa is an Indian woman of many talents with a voice like expensive satin. She's a poetess, a NLP & mindfulness coach, podcaster (link below), trained Indian classical dancer, amazing cook, hypnotherapist, business woman and philanthropist. Clearly, she's a true Renaissance woman :) Her new poetry collection, "Fireflies and Shooting Stars" can be bought here

Going thru a pre-midlife crisis and I don't have it in me to interview guests and edit podcasts. I'm committed to showing up however the fuck I am and doing what feels right intuitively. Today, all I have in me is a quick update and poetry. The piece I'm reading is called "Who's The Next Lucky Girl" and I wrote it in 1999 when I was 13 shortly after I was raped for the first time. Enjoy!

Today it's just me, myself and Irene. Who the fuck is Irene, tho? Why do people say this saying? But for real, it's just me. I'm really fucking happy lately and May is Mental Health Awareness Month. I talk through how I think I got to this place where I'm happy as Mary Fuckin Poppins and give some encouragement and advice that no one asked for on how to (maybe) find your own happy place.

Hey Boos Hey! I'm joined today with my Polish sister from another mister, Jean Swiderski. She's an inspiration and strong ass motherfucker who takes no shit. We talk about how she sees her childhood trauma as a strength and how she's been able to shift that pain and thrive.

Hey Boos Hey! In this episode, I'm joined by a long time college friend, Jacob Brodsky. He holds the esteemed title of being one of my token gay white friends (actually, I think I only have ONE friend that is both white AND gay, so, he's extra special). We touch on why toxic positivity doesn't help people or situations, how words and thoughts become things, different things we do to manifest shit in our lives and shift our mindsets and a whole bunch of other random shit because that's what friends tend to do when they talk.

Hey Boos Hey! In this episode, I'm joined again by one of my best friends, Jillian Mazzariello-Ahee (you may remember her from our previous episode about infertility). We talk about our starkly different parenting styles and how we've supported each other on our motherhood journeys even though we hardly ever agree on each other's approaches. We talk about co-sleeping, Judge Ass Judys of parenting (fuck y'all), some dumb invention called the Owlet, old school Puerto Rican mom remedies we were taught, raising your kid to be independent and a host of other shit. Our lives have never been in sync, but one thing that's never wavered is our love for each other and commitment to our relationship. I'd die and kill for her and that's that on that.

Ohhhhh hey! Didn't see you there! Welcome back bayyyyybeeeeee! I'm so excited for season two and all the shit we'll be talking about. Our first episode is just me (your fav person). I give a short, informal update of my upscale dumpster fire ass life. I share three nonconventional tips that help me deal with trauma triggers and meltdowns and remind you that it's ok to NOT BE OK. Because bitch I am NOT OK most the time, ok?!?!
