I had such a great time talking with today's guest, Josh Zimmerman, aka @yogijosh_. We talked a lot about healing in this episode and the importance of truly knowing the sound of your own intuition. I'm so grateful for everything he shared in this episode and for all of his great strategies for moving forward when things feel dark.

I'm so happy I am doing this again, y'all. Like you have no idea how much this fills my soul right up.

Episode 2 of this season was actually recorded at the tail end of season 1, before I knew that I really had to take a break. Josh White and I had a great convo about the journey that brought him to owning Free Street Tavern, an awesome spot on Niagara Street for a cocktail or a beer, and the chillest vibes. I was super excited to hear about how he did it after hearing that he had been working in the service industry for always, and had two young kids (and a super supportive wife). He may not know what affirmations are, but he knows how to run a good bar you'll want to keep coming back to, haha. Hope you enjoy the episode!

Oh my gracious how I have missed this. I am so so so so happy to be kicking off season 2 (FINALLY)!! It's been a fucking ride the last few months, y'all. Each day I'm living somewhere between extreme gratitude and extreme devastation. I share this because it's likely the current season I'm in will guide my conversations with future guests on the show. I won't be afraid to ask the tough questions this time. 

So buckle up y'all, season two is about to go DEEP!

Thanks for listening and sharing ✨

This week's episode was recorded in the fabulous Mercury Salon in Allentown with salon owner, my hairdresser for years, and most importantly, my friend and fairy godmother, Felicia Cardinale!

To know Felicia, is to love Felicia. Unless you've crossed her, then GOD SPEED. She is as real as they come and though she's dealt with some heavy trials in life, she still makes room in her heart for everyone else's trials and troubles to be hashed over in her salon.

A self-proclaimed "hair-apist", she pulls on her own past experiences and healing journey to help her clients as best she can, even if that's just with a nonjudgmental listening ear.

While she might not be able to fix all your problems, she certainly can fix your hair. We talk current hair trends, the importance of continued training and learning in cosmetology, a life-changing decision she made to kick something out of her house, and so much more! Hope you enjoy this episode with this truly magical human!

My guest today is an absolute boss. The first time I ever met her, I was like, who is this Disney princess with sparkling eyes and perfect hair. But wait, she’s also hilarious. Hold on, additionally, she’s wicked smart and most definitely, a cool mom.

She is the owner of Handmade by Harrisons, which you can find at local vendor and craft markets near you, to pick up their signature Buffalo Bills denim jackets, shirts, and so much more. She co-hosts the Saucy Book Club podcast. She is the mom of a future activist and justice warrior no doubt, named Harrison. An active member of the local Moms Demand Action group and she works the polls at all our elections to make sure we can vote safely and securely, AND oh yeah, her full-time job is as Development Manager for the American Cancer Society. Meet, my friend, and human who inspires me all the time, Dylyn M Harrison!

We talked about parenting and having tough conversations about the state of the world with our little ones, what it looks like in Albany on lobby days (she just came back from one the day before we recorded this!), and how critical it is to just say "no" in the pursuit of your own peace and happiness.

On today's episode, I sat down with my first college roommate Melissa aka Missy DelSorbo! Missy is a licensed mental health counselor, but also she is the headmistress of the Eye Candy Vixens, a burlesque troop! We talk about how she got started doing burlesque, how it's improved her body confidence, and how prioritizing something she truly enjoys has affected all parts of her life. You will love this one!

Y'all we FINALLY got my sister officially on the podcast today! We talked about the most pivotal, life altering job she ever had: selling make up for an MLM. 

To be clear, neither she or I condone working for MLMs and I especially think they are fucking garbage. Sorry not sorry. BUT, I am forever grateful for how this one completely shifted her entire life for the better in every way possible. 

Enjoy!
