Get'n Cozy with Erin Hill

What is The Dipp? It’s a website that allows you to read articles about your favorite shows, tailored to you, and Kate Ward is the founder of this unique online magazine. She and editor Allison Piwowarski co-host the Tv Watch Repeat and the Pop Chaser podcasts, keeping you up to date daily on pop culture and entertainment. I wanted to have them on the pod to chat about what inspired them to create The Dipp and dish about which current shows are binge-worthy. We also discuss the latest Bachelor Nation news, including the uncertain future of the franchise. Who do we think should become the next Bachelor? What further changes need to be made to keep the show running? I loved catching up with Kate and Allison about our shared passion, reality tv!

Stephen Lovegrove, America’s Life Coach, takes entrepreneurs, celebrities, and world leaders to the next level. He prides himself on “using spiritual law and principle in a practical way to transform their lives.” He describes his coaching not as the traditional series of therapy sessions, but “deep transformative work that will require you to confront how you see yourself, your life, and the world with powerful support and accountability that will shift your life and career forever.” I wanted to have him on the pod to discuss how he became America’s Life Coach and what lead to his personal transformation. I was stunned to hear his deeply moving story about growing up in a cult and how he broke free and discovered his true self. It was a hard fought journey that needed to be shared, and one that is truly inspirational.

Nicole Rose’ was easily the most polarizing character on the hit reality tv show The Big Shot with Bethenny. She is an incredibly accomplished entrepreneur, dj, influencer, and podcaster, and made big waves with Bethenny herself! I wanted to have her on to get to know who she is at her core and what has shaped her into the dynamo she is today. We chat about the intensity of the show, and if she would have changed anything during filming. What was Bethenny like and what did she learn from the extraordinary experience? Her podcast Big Queen Energy empowers women and is a positive light in the post-pandemic world. In addition to that, she is releasing a meditation program June 14th that is life changing! Thank you for listening!

Meet Darius Brown, The Conversation Coach! He’s a speaker, an author, and a strategy coach, not only for dating, but for life and business as well! I had him come on to discuss his revolutionary book “You Got the Digits, Now What? 104 Early Dating Questions,” a must read for anyone and everyone who is currently dating! The book is designed to create memorable conversations with high quality men/women, and give you the answers you need without interrogating your date! For example, maybe you would like to know how much ambition he/she has, Darius suggests asking “What was one of the biggest risks you’ve taken that’s paid off for you now?” Or if you’d like to know more about his/her character, ask them “What insecurities are you most proud of overcoming?” There are countless categories, including sex and religion, so all of your burning questions can be asked in a non-invasive way! Stop wasting time trying to figure people out, get the answers you want and feel confident staying the course or moving on. Prepare to take notes! The information Darius shares is invaluable, and badly needed! I guarantee you will be better prepared to take on dating and relationships after listening!

Kim Gravel is best described as a female Dr. Phil with a twist of Bethenny Frankel! Her accomplishments started very early on in her life, starting with becoming one of the youngest to earn the title of Miss Georgia, at the tender age of 19. We talked about how she knew she was destined for greatness long before she wore that crown. She took every opportunity that came her way, and even created others to achieve her goals. Her tenacity and perseverance lead to starring in her own reality tv show on Lifetime, Kim of Queens, where she mentors and molds young pageant hopefuls. Kim has since developed a clothing and beauty line for QVC, Belle and Belle Beauty, and is a certified life coach, mentor, advisor and consultant. She is also launching a podcast called LOL with Kim Gravel on Thursday, May 22nd! Look out for her upcoming book as well as Brace for Kimpact, a reality tv series which picks up where Kim of Queens left off! You will love this uplifting, inspiring, and at times hilarious episode with Kim! Thank you for listening!

Kimberly Vick was on Season 14 of The Bachelor, with pilot Jake Pavelka. She shared her emotional and eye-opening experience on TikTok which quickly went viral! I wanted to have her on to talk about the casting process and what happens in those months leading up to filming. I had no idea how attached the contestants become to their producers, and in Kimberly’s case, how they play a pivotal role in the trauma that results. I view the show very differently after hearing her story, and I think you will too. I’m glad we could bring these truths to light, and I thank Kimberly for being so open, honest, and vulnerable.

Singer, actor, influencer, and overnight TikTok sensation, John Joseph joins me this week! He’s known as the CEO of What You Don’t Know, and he certainly opened my eyes to so much in this episode! He specializes in exposing the behind the scenes of popular reality tv shows like The Hills, Laguna Beach, and The Simple Life! Don’t believe everything you see! He’s also a huge Bachelor fan, so we covered the scandal that rocked this past season as well! Since John is single, we talked about dating and he shared some great advice his family has given him over the years. My favorite was to spend all four seasons with a person before getting engaged, see them in the good times and bad then decide. A great insightful convo with John, please follow him on Instagram @johnjosephmusic, and on TikTok @itsjohnjoseph to get all the inside scoop!

This week, Kate Casey, the host of Reality Life with Kate Casey, and mama of five, joins me to chat about how she got started in the podcast world!

This week we go back to 2004, when Marcus Pierce was on Season 2 of The Bachelorette! (Season 18 is currently filming, for context.) A fitness trainer, life coach, and model, Marcus shares what life was like before the limelight, and his time on the show getting to know the lead Meredith Phillips and his fellow castmates. His account is so honest and eye opening, I loved his fresh take on the whole process. Countless opportunities opened up to him post show, including a tv show on Bravo and other popular networks, an Emmy winning one as well! He is at his core a lover and a very soulful individual with an entrepreneurial spirit and many creative passions. He has experienced real heartache and loss but has never given up on his ultimate goal of finding his soulmate, an example set by his parents idyllic story and marriage. I cannot say enough about this kind, tenderhearted, phenomenal man, he’s as real as they come! Hope you enjoy get’n cozy with him as much as I did!

We dive deep into narcissism and how its affected both of our lives significantly. We share helpful tips to find out if you’re possibly dating a narcissist, a question I’m asked often as a dating coach.
