LIVE FROM BED with Jade Iovine

After many requests from you guys. I finally convinced Dylan, my fiancé, my forever roommate, the old ball & chain, to return for a second episode!! 

We talked about our biggest fears, what counts as cheating, how to deal with your significant other’s mental illness, and how we met.  

There is so much oversharing to be enjoyed in this episode, as well as some major TMI insight into our relationship…

After this episode we’ll be taking a two week break to cook up some incredible new episodes for you! We’ll be back with a brand new season (and some of our best guests ever) on October 11th!

I’ve been dying to talk to you guys about something…

In this episode, we talk about “Reparenting”: a concept I’ve been steadily working on for a few years now. And, not to be dramatic, but it saved my life. We talk about getting in touch with our inner child, what the process of reparenting actually looks like, and concrete ways for you to try it yourself.

Here are a couple questions to ask yourself:

- Do you feel like you’re a victim of the childhood you had, and what it lacked? 

- Are you self-critical and overly harsh with yourself?

- Are you too permissive with yourself – do you have trouble setting limits, or consistently allow yourself to do things that are unhealthy or unsafe?

- Do you ignore your feelings, have trouble expressing your needs, or regulating your emotions?

- Do you find it hard to treat yourself with love and compassion?

We also talked about why we should avoid putting people on pedestals, and why seeing someone else post that they “have such an exciting announcement coming up…” is up there with the worst feelings ever.

Life update: My brother just got married!!!

I ugly cried my way through his wedding weekend and it was truly one of the most special weekends of my life. 

SO, I thought this week we’d stick with the wedding theme, and listen back to one of my all-time favorite episodes with none other than icon, legend, and crop-top queen GWEN STEFANI.

We recorded this episode last summer, a week after Gwen married Blake Shelton - and we were the first people she talked to after the wedding. I’ve known Gwen my entire life, and seeing her so happy and getting to capture her elation after such a huge occasion was incredible. This episode is responsible for putting TMAI on the map and we’ve come far since then! 

Not to be emo but…If you’ve been listening to this show since the Gwen episode, thank you! I’ll never be able to express my gratitude or love, you’re my favorite. 

PS We’ll be back with a brand new episode next week!

What’s worse: feeling shitty when everything in your life is going badly, or feeling shitty when nothing is seemingly wrong but you’re still unhappy? 

Or when you’re “supposed to be happy”... but aren’t!

This week we dove head first into all the reasons I’m Sick and Tired: 

Hot weather and sweating through my depression: Why tank tops and depression don’t mix. 

Long Distance Friendships: feeling like I have too many friends, and no friends, all at the same time. And why these hour-long catch ups with my friends might be the death of me. 

Hiding my period from full grown men (and children). Are we seriously still doing this?

Using birth control: What kind of birth control method are we all actually using? Condoms? The pill? Spray and Pray? 

We also talked about saying goodbye to the women we’ll never be, and how to start hating yourself for who you actually are instead.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve always found some aspects of the body positivity movement to be impossible to apply to my real life. From reciting affirmations in the mirror to feeling this daunting pressure to radically love every inch of myself, I just couldn’t get on board - it never felt realistic or achievable to me. But then I discovered Gabi Fresh’s content on Instagram and learned about the concept of body neutrality: which leaves room for the times we find it hardest to love ourselves and our physical body, rather than feeling like we have to be obsessed with the way we look 100% of the time. I knew after watching a few of Gabi’s videos, I had to have her on the show to commiserate about the days we just hate ourselves–to put it bluntly–and how to navigate our often-tumultuous relationship with our body, brain, and being.  

Gabi Gregg AKA @gabifresh, to her almost-a-million Instagram followers is a creative director, writer, former blogger, designer, and the self-titled ‘OG Fat Girl’. Not only has she been posting her glam outfits for over a decade, she’s also, interestingly, one of the very first influencers to ever get into the brand collaboration space. From designing revolutionary swimsuits to creating stylish and highly-coveted plus-size clothing collections, there are very few things Gabi hasn’t done. 

Gabi and I talked about the moments from our childhood when we first became aware of our body’s supposed shortcomings, and why we still remember those comments so sharply. I asked her if she feels Facetune and body neutrality are mutually exclusive, and how to confront people in your life, from your mom to your neighbor, that still insist on commenting on your body. We talked about feeling jealous when your friend loses weight, dating and being fetishized, reclaiming words like fat, and feeling like rejections are all rooted in people’s judgment of your body. Gabi shared her experience with both chronic illness and mental illness, how those impact her physical health, and why some people feel very strongly about her weight.

This week’s Live From Bed is a little different, we’re LIVE from my office where Catherine and I sat down (together, in person for the very first time on tape) - and went deeper than we ever have. 

Starting with an absolutely humiliating story, I answered tons of questions you submitted on my latest AMA and shared things I never have before. Like details about my parents divorce, all my tattoos, and how to make friends as an adult. We discussed fighting with your in-laws and how to navigate that shitty experience, when we lost our virginities/what it’s meant for our sex lives as adults, and dove into Jade’s latest obsession: the enneagram.

Today TikTok sensation Victoria Paris is on the show, and she blew my mind. She so articulately walked me through her messy past, and the dark side of the “fuck-you-success” she’s acquired, seemingly overnight. 

Just 23, Victoria amassed over 1.7 million followers and counting across TikTok and Instagram. After losing her job and ending a relationship, Victoria moved to New York City in the middle of the pandemic and started her TikTok account to promote her Depop store, but found her passion in making videos. With content dedicated to fashion, fitness, and NYC lifestyle simultaneously, her dedicated fan base (dubbed “The Victorians”), look to her every move as she displays her intimate connections - including coming out as bisexual. She posts dozens of times a day, drawing viewers in with her stream-of-consciousness relatability, vlog-like filming style, and “cool girl” factor. 

A minor note: Victoria is in the process of moving to LA, (a great decision…), so for her privacy, her neighborhood will be bleeped out in our conversation.

This week’s Live From Bed is extra spicy. I’ve decided that because there are no secrets between us – and because I’m hardcore PMS-ing – I should let you all in on my pet peeves, controversial opinions, and things I just LOATHE entirely. All the thoughts I’m normally too afraid to actually admit out loud. 

We talk about our sex dreams, how we feel about exes, and what really qualifies as a red flag versus an intrusive thought (or our anxiety). Catherine and I deep dive on this week’s “Enemy #1” and how our body talk has actually changed this summer.

I sort of have a vulnerability hangover from this episode but, alas, I think you’ll really love it so that’s all that matters, right? 

Catherine and I took a magnifying glass to my past, as I described in crazy detail how I survived a hellish, dark period in my twenties. One I was convinced I’d never be able to talk about in retrospect…until now. 

We also talked about: 

Our 10 best tips for any of you that find yourself attending a wedding alone (or any party, for that matter).

My ‘Depression Folder’ and how to use it.

A couple quotes I love and live by.

What bras we’re wearing (and have been for the past ten years…).

And we discuss “friendship-freeloaders” and whether we should dump ‘em or keep ‘em.

WE’RE BACK BABY!!!

After three long and crazy weeks we’re officially reunited and back with a brand new season! 

This week we have TWO guests for the price of one: legends and best friends Rayna Greenberg and Ashley Hesseltine who you probably know as the co-hosts of comedy/dating/sex/relatiobnships podcast Girls Gotta Eat and now are the founders of sex-toy company Vibes Only.

We dove head first into dating, being single in your thirties, not wanting children, what *admittedly* makes us bad friends, and sex sex sex and more sex. Rayna, Ashley and I talked about orgasms, masturbation habits, and how their sex lives have evolved since their twenties.
