In this short but deeply personal introduction, I share the story behind Cut to the Chase—the moments that broke me open, reshaped me, and ultimately called me into this work.

I talk about becoming a mom and losing my dad just five months postpartum… a grief so heavy it cracked me wide open and pushed me into postpartum depression and anxiety. I share the years of infertility prior to that, the emotional toll of trying to hold my life together, and how stepping into perimenopause has added a whole new layer to the journey.

And then there’s hospice nursing ~ the part of my life that changed everything. Sitting at the bedside of death over and over again will shift you. It forces you to look at your own life, your own choices, and the legacy you’re leaving behind. It’s what made me ask: What do I want people to say about me on my deathbed? Am I living like it matters? Or just surviving?

This podcast is born from those questions.

Here, we’re going to talk about the things women whisper about but rarely say out loud ~ motherhood, hormones, grief, death, desire, identity, aging, burnout, perimenopause, and all the messy, beautiful, uncomfortable truths of being a woman in this world.

If you’re craving real conversations, real honesty, and a space where nothing is off-limits… you’re in the right place.

Welcome to Cut to the Chase. Let’s get unfiltered.
