LIVE FROM BED with Jade Iovine

I am officially in my introvert recoup era. After what feels like a month of talking to people nonstop, I’ve decided I only want to talk to you guys for the foreseeable future. AND YOUR GIRL HAS THINGS TO SAY.

In this episode, I vented to Catherine about oh-so-many things. We gave advice and shared our missteps when trying to leave a conversation that has expired. We dissected my belief of what a good first date looks like and which common dating experience would be my personal version of hell. We compared notes on the statute of limitations for late birthday presents, unlocked the truth behind “good sides”, and examined my crippling fear of the dark. 

ALSO: this message goes out to my VPR fans and VPR fans only…we recorded this episode BEFORE the Scandoval so just know next week I will go IN on all my thoughts and feelings regarding the news that shook me to my core!!!

At long last, I’m back from my wedding weekend and honeymoon and I missed you guys palpably. 

Trust me, we’ll do a whole episode on alllll the details and drama of the wedding for those who want it but, in the meantime, Catherine and I couldn't resist and decided to give you guys the spark notes version in this episode. Plus: plenty of non-wedding-related stuff that’s been on my mind…

We discussed the unexpected meltdown I had before the big day, things that really bug me about talking to people, the phonetic alphabet, and much much much more.

We’re back and better than ever and I’M SO HAPPY to vent to you guys again.

Since I’m on my mini-moon and OOO, I thought we’d revisit my and Dylan’s first episode together and what was *hopefully* the least-cringey engagement announcement we could give you. I can’t wait to be back next week and tell you guys EVERYTHING about this past week!! Xo Jade

*

After months of hearing me tell countless stories about him and letting me embarrass him on this show, we thought it was time to invite my fiancé Dylan to hang out with us this week. Dylan is my better half in nearly every way and I think you’ll agree and love him as much as I do -- well hopefully not quite that much, that’d be weird, but you know what I mean…

We go over all the details of Dylan’s proposal (in the least cringey way, as aforementioned), talk a little about our history, argue about details of every story, and you’ll get a very telling sneak peek into our relationship along the way.

And, before you all yell at me, I know I have a “talking-over-Dylan” problem. I’m working on it very hard in therapy, I swear..

My wedding was this past weekend but, last week, BEFORE I got married Catherine and I recorded this episode to EXCLUSIVELY discuss wedding disasters and planning horror stories. 

Most people think weddings are all aspirational and romantic. We see perfect families, the perfect dress, the best day of people’s lives, and what we see on Pinterest BUT if you’ve ever planned a wedding, you know the truth (and the tears) that go on behind the scenes of this magical day…

Recently I complained to you guys about how the seating chart nearly made me call off my wedding and my DMs exploded. People related to my pain, big time and were almost too excited to share their worst wedding planning and day-of moments. To be honest, my heart sang because it was so relieving to know that other people agreed with me: behind the scenes, weddings aren't necessarily all sunshine and rainbows. 

SO because many of you were eager to share your humbling, annoying, painful, disastrous, wedding truths I thought I'd dedicate an entire episode to the dark side of weddings hoping that we could make each other feel better and commiserate–especially when we’ve yelled at a undeserving (or very deserving!!) family member, developed a stress-rash and are ready to cancel the whole thing and elope somewhere no one can ever find us.

We all know Heather Gay as our blunt, relatable best friend (with a mysterious black eye *eye roll*) on "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" and as the founder of Beauty Lab & Laser (with the legendary parking lot). But some of her actual friends, family and community see her as nothing but a “Bad Mormon”.

 If you watch Real Housewives of Salt Lake City you know that most of Heather’s storyline for her past three seasons on the show has revolved around her experience untangling herself and beliefs from that of the Mormon Church and exposing the brutal repercussions her vocalness about her departure has had on both her personal life and relationships. Heather was born into Mormonism and has spent most of her life wrestling with a gnawing feeling that she “didn’t fit” the mold of a “good” Mormon woman. In more recent years, while simultaneously accepting a starring role on Bravo’s hit show RHOSLC, Heather has officially filed to withdraw from the church, start her life anew, and…WRITE A BOOK detailing the secrets, darkness. 

With writing that is vulnerable, witty, and painfully truthful Heather details her innermost thoughts and internal tug-of-war between duty to self and duty to God. Exposing secrets she once held sacred, “Bad Mormon” is an unfiltered look at the religion that broke her heart.

*TRIGGER WARNING: SEXUAL ABUSE*

This week Cheryl Burke joined us and we both did what we do best: we overshared. 

Cheryl and I discussed the whirlwind that has been the last few years of her life. Between leaving Dancing With The Stars, the show she was on for 26 seasons (!!), and navigating a public divorce, fighting her ex for custody of their dog, getting sober, maintaining her sobriety, and launching a brand new YouTube show called “Diving Deep”–Cheryl has conquered it all with grace and most importantly…with newfound peace.

Cheryl bravely walked us through her “rock bottom” and the traumas of her childhood including suffering sexual abuse from a man her parents had hired to babysit her. She explained the effect that had on her early relationships and the journey of healing she’s gone on since. 

There are so many layers of this episode and I’m so grateful to Cheryl for her honesty.

We’re cooking up something different for you guys this week on TMAI. This week I decided to let my wedding-stressed brain fly free and give you one of the most random episodes this show has ever seen. 

I’ve been collecting some of the greatest (and, arguably, weirdest) questions to ask people you're getting to know, meeting for the first time, or have known forever. Valentine's Day is coming up, maybe you have a couple first dates on the horizon, maybe your New Year's resolution was to make more friends and you’re looking for some ice-breakers to have on hand in case there’s one too many awkward silences? If any of these things apply to you…LOOK NO FURTHER my fellow socially anxious friends, I have a solution!

We also talk about emotional metabolisms, the best documentaries I’ve ever seen, and why I suck at starting new things.

Catherine and I are back (in bed) and ready to commiserate like the good lord intended! Over the holidays I made a list of everything I wanted to vent to you guys about and we almost couldn’t fit it all in one episode. The juice is loose, the tea is spilled, and Catherine and I covered everything from what’s definitely “out” in 2023 how to deal with cheating rumors, going through people’s phones, friendship disappointment, and SO SO much more. I’m so excited for you to hear this one, it’s filled to the brim with the most brutal kind of honesty, the kind I know only you guys will understand….

She’s a mogul, a model and best of all she’s a mom. If you get that reference from Kimora: Life in The Fab Lane, then we can be best friends because that show was, and is, everything to me. 

Kimora, whether she likes it or not, is made for reality TV. And as a Housewives fanatic, I had to beg her one last time to see if there is any chance she would ever agree to be on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills… and on this episode, we’ll finally get an answer. We talked about female friendships and romantic relationships, and Kimora gives us alllllll the lessons that she, as she put it, had to learn “the hard way”.

We discussed the concept of emasculating a partner, shrinking behind the power and control of someone you love, knowing when enough is enough, and how to maintain your independence by any and all means necessary. As most of us know, Kimora gives it to you straight, no chaser - and she brought that same iconically blunt energy into our conversation. 

In this episode she gives us the pump-up pep talk of our dreams, and explains how she took her childhood growing up with a single mom, where she felt inherently “different”, and spun it into becoming the strong, unshakable force of nature we see when we look at Kimora today.

Welcome, welcome, welcome to our last episode until 2023!!!

I invited Catherine to shoot the sh*t with me one last time before this year ends and well, we came ready and rageful.

We talked about our experiences confronting friends, family, and even strangers, betraying ourselves, nostalgia about the way our holidays used to be, how an argument I had made me feel weird for a week straight, why having an avoidant attachment style impacts all our relationships, and my theory about responding to text messages.

I’ll miss you but fear not, we’ll be reunited and back with brand spankin’ new episodes on January 10th!
