TW: Cults, Domestic Abuse, Gangs, Gun Violence

Abbie & Daniélle were VERY excited to sit down with Podcast Nation's Facebook group founder, Brian Harris, as we both have found many valuable connections in this space! During the conversation, Brian is candid about his traumas from youth to adulthood, and how he has since found the benefits of self-reflection and constant learning. Brian is an inspiring individual who uses his life lessons for good today - not only as a religious cult & gang survivor living now with a disability, but also a partner, father, and community member. We cover so many topics in our discussion, such as his hobbies in music and horror popculture, his past and current work as an author and co-publisher of the magazine Wengs Chop, and of course navigating the endless online trolls. Just know that if you are EVER planning to start a Facebook Community, first take some pointers from our new friend, Brian!

Chelsea London Lloyd is the host of Dying of Laugher - a comedic grief podcast where she interviews "funny-at-heart humans with a deceased parent or sibling."  In this conversation, Chelsea, Abbie and Daniélle discuss their personal relationships to grief, why death does not always have to be heavy, & how comedy can be a healthy coping skill after losing a loved one.  In addition to the podcast, Chelsea is a working actor and comedian n Los Angeles....but she somehow finds time to also volunteer with amazing support groups and community organizations ( The Dinner Party  ; Walk with Sally, just to name a few). 

This episode is heartfelt and funny all in one.  If you take away only one message, let it be this: Schedule your preventative screens NOW!

**TW: domestic violence, physical/emotional abuse, trauma survival

Abbie & Daniélle had the absolute pleasure and honor of speaking with Lianne Torres for this episode.  She is the Founder, CEO & Host of the Watch us Thrive podcast, and in 2021 she began her personal development journey after escaping a physically & emotionally abusive relationship. At that time (and in her own words) she knew it was time for a hard reset in order to begin healing her inner shadows.

In the process of her journey to healing, Lianne started her podcast to share the life stories of what she’s gone through. It has since become a beautiful & safe platform where guests come on to share their own life experiences of turning their pain into power and trauma into triumph.  

Watch Us Thrive is a personal development podcast that talks about mental health, healing from trauma that keeps us stuck in toxic, sh*tty relationships & how we can reconnect with our inner magic.  Lianne is passionate AF about helping listeners heal from their own life experiences by candidly sharing her own and the stories of others....and we know by the end of the episode you will feel Lianne's contagious energy through your speakers! 

One of Lianne's favorite quotes is: "We're gonna talk about the sh*t you don't want to talk about...but it NEEDS to be talked about!" She holds nothing back in this conversation, and we're so blessed that Lianne shared her time with the #RealLife family. While our virtual hug at the end of the recording will do for now, we truly can't wait for a future meet up where we can soak up all of Lianne's bad bitch vibes in person :)

Clare Loughran is a self identified *Fun Enthusiast* ....and we couldn't agree more! She has her hands in so many creative avenues, including improv comedy, voice over acting, podcasting, and an undying love for Broadway musicals.  Clare shares with  Abbie & Daniélle what it was like to attend clown college after studying theatre, followed by moving to L.A. to pursue a variety of passions. We are so grateful our (kids at heart) paths crossed on the socials, and if you're ever looking for laughter or just straight fun - check out any and all of Clare's content!

Don't let the episode title fool you - this convo is ANYTHING but dark!  Abbie & Daniélle sit back and have a girls' chat with Chi-Town friend, Christa Beck.  Topics range from astrology stereotypes, moving across the country, passion projects, future career dreams, and so much more. Our cheeks hurt from laughing too hard in this recording...ENJOY :)

Abbie & Daniélle take another swing at trivia - but this time the nostalgic theme is 2000's TV!  The episode is also very special, as it features our most excited & adorable guest yet...Abbie's 7-year-old son, Eli!  Hear Abbie's lil' man introduce the show, ask a question (or 2), make random noises in the background, and caps off his debut episode by sending out our listeners at the end. We hope you enjoy the fun! #peaceout :)

--Although this episode covers tough topics such as grief, loss, funerals, and death, Abbie & Daniélle truly feel this is more of an uplifting conversation, which honors the memory of their loved ones.The hosts of #RealLife both experienced losses of family members early January, and in this conversation come together to be candid and vulnerable with their emotions (now that both funerals are a few weeks removed). As per usual, Abbie & Daniélle use a mixture of both heart-to-hearts AND laughter to process the pure awkwardness that visitations/funerals present. And if nothing else, we are here to tell you that there is not one perfect way to grieve...If you have recently lost someone, just know that we love you, we are here for you, and let those emotions flow in your own time <3
