IZ What It IZ

Whew. I got a bit emotional...talked about family...talked about God. And not to be dramatic, but at times I feel like I took the road less traveled, and that made all the difference. Life is confusing and hard. And I hurt and I live and I love. And I hope for the people listening, that it means something to them. If not, I love you anyway. 

Welcome back! I took a small hiatus to get my mind right and am feeling back/better than ever. Listen in to catch up on all that's happened since I last recorded at the end of 2020. Career moves, breakups, and drama included! Xoxo. 

Another great conversation with my brother, Tommy, as he helps me figure out life's toughest questions. How do we avoid pain while still leading a bold and exciting life? Is it true that all life's greatest gifts really come from going through the valleys? We recorded this episode a few days before Christmas, which felt like a good time to say goodbye to 2020 and Season 1 of IZ What It IZ. Thank you for listening. Xoxo. 

Truly enjoyed the opportunity to speak with Pierce Freelon- a musician, politician, and activist from Durham. Pierce and I dove into the tough topics regarding gender, race, and the "goo" of transforming yourself from a person of bliss and ignorance to an individual capable of change. Enjoy & Happy Thanksgiving!! 

Whew! Been sneezing a lot today. Anyway, tonight I discuss my disdain for Emily R. and disgruntled coworkers. But the meat of the podcast is meeting people where they are. And, in turn, having enough compassion on yourself that you also meet ~you~ where you are!! Easier said than done. Wishing everyone the joy of the holiday season/Christmas spirit. Love to all! 

Distance, Differences, and DiFranscisco. 

Isabella & Corbin discuss the family's they don't have, the appreciation for the family they do have, and Jesus H. Christ. I also overuse the word ej&*culate because I had too many cosmos prior to recording. Strap in...here we gooooo!! 

On this episode, I discuss my love of Oprah Winfrey, monogamy, shame and feelings of guilt, projecting people's comfort levels onto yourself, etc. etc. etc!!! My feelings are this: you have to decide what's right and wrong for you and have the confidence to stand in that even when it doesn't always feel comfortable. Hope you enjoy <3 

Honestly, you don't even need to listen to this episode because it's summed up right here in this description. Running 4 miles, almost shitting myself, drinking, and the 2020 election. So much BS in so little time! Enjoy. xoxo. 

Shwiiiing!! So happy to have had the chance to talk to Taylor Treacy, Founder & President of The Virago Project. On this episode, we discuss the highs and lows (but mostly lows) or our experiences as female athletes. Team dynamics, cliques, eating disorders, toxic relationships, self worth, and the journey we continue to go on as women that strive to be better through the lessons taught to us by sports.

The Virago Project is a nonprofit organization that is committed to helping female athletes of all ages, backgrounds, and levels, balance sports with life. We advocate for the physical and mental wellbeing of sportswomen everywhere, and equip female athletes with the tools needed to navigate the highs and lows of a life in sport.
