Former Monarch employee turned friend, Todd, joins me for an epsiode on living life in LA. A transition from a small town to big fish to big city small fish and the navigation that is required to be successful here. So glad I had the opportunity to pick his brain before he departed back to the midwest!

After what I'm calling a brief hiatus, I'm back and better than ever! Realistically, I'm back and want to just continue the fun. It's always a good time whenever I sit down at my lil desk and record a little diddy for the fans. So sit back, turn up the volume, and enjoy!

I pride myself on being an optimist. This episode had me reflecting hard on the past 6 months and truly what life is for me. I am in control of this life whether the results are good or bad. I'm going to take a breif hiatis from podcasting through the summer months just to get regrounded because, I am my #1 priority! I appreciate y'all more than you know.

When Im on i'm on and this episode, it felt on. Im not talking about ways in which I've become better or that I feel I have growth and ways you can grow too, but it's felt more like just a word vomit of me, and who I am. This isn't easy. At all. Trying to be this person of great depth and growth when in reality, I'm not always growing. I'm not always feeling secure. On top of that TO DO A PODCAST ABOUT IT EVERY WEEK? Damn, I'm my own hero! Hope y'all enjoy and thank you for letting me be me.

This is probably top three episodes for me because of how organically it happened. The universe presents itself in mysterious ways and I definitely felt that with this epsiode. Big thank you to Mark for asking me to join this episode and truly what great insight he gave to me and all of you! The song of the week is Milk & Coffee by NoMBe and is such a great vibe - a lil different than my usual, but a great vibe. Follow me on instagram @stevomreid and on Tik Tok @pbswirl.

I felt up in the clouds on this one. Just absolutely great week of grwoth and realizations. They just keep coming and honestly I'm here for it. As the season winds down, I find myself reevaluating my podcast to figure what direction I want to take it for next season and so far I'm realizing that the direction I want to go in is just forward. A perfectly vague enough answer where I can figure it out as I go but still feel like I'm being successful. How do you define success? Let me know!

Tune in as I have a conversation with Cassidy relating to first impressions of LA, and how she feels now, whether or not LA is a dog friendly city, and ultimately what her passions are/where she finds joy. It's interesting when you have a recoreded conversation with your partner this way because I knew a lot of what she was saying but also was learning more about her just as y'all are. I hope y'all enjoy this as much as I enjoyed having the conversation, editing it, and the whole process. Song of the week is Worst Day by Illenium.

I'll talk to y'all next time!

Had to do one last minute y'all. It went.. I'd say okay! Ultimately I feel this past week was enlightening in a way of recognition of my actions. Enjoy!

Simply put. It's happening again. I'm stepping into my next chapter. I'm realizing what I want even more clearly now. This. Is. Scary. We got this!

I've recently been thinking about what kind of legacy I want to leave behind. What do I want to be known for? And why? It's a big question that I haven't fully flushed out. I think that I want people to think about the impact I left on them in a more positive than negative way. But that's not good enough. Leaving positivity isn't enough for me. More! I want to do MORE! Anyway, I also talk about roommates, talking myself down, and my horrible recent sweettooth. Enjoy, and as always give me a follow insta: stevomreid and TikTok: pbswirl.
