In this episode of Stacy Phillips & Friends, Stacy sits down with co-host Angela Reddock-Wright and the radiant, resilient, and always-stylish Keni Silva — author, model, entrepreneur, and now divorce coach — for a deeply honest and unexpectedly uplifting conversation about what it really takes to rebuild your life after a marriage ends.

Keni opens up about the early days of her divorce, including living under the same roof with her ex during the pandemic, walking two hours a day just to stay grounded, and reading law books at night so she could make informed decisions. She shares the mindset shifts that saved her - from treating divorce like “college” to reframing it as the beginning of a new chapter, not the end of one.

But this episode is also about power: financial independence, shedding guilt, co-parenting with compassion, and raising emotionally strong kids by modeling strength instead of fear. Stacy and Angela reflect on their decades in the legal trenches, why communication saves families, and the hard truth about control.

It’s raw, wise, and funny - a conversation for any woman who’s ever wondered if she’ll survive a heartbreak, start over in midlife, or find herself again… even if she has to do it in heels.

• How Keni survived divorce while still living with her ex during COVID
• Why Keni says divorce is “like college — use that time wisely”
• The power of communication and why some lawyers mistakenly tell clients to stop talking to their spouse
• How co-parenting strengthened her kids and made them more independent
• Financial empowerment 101: why every woman should know her numbers
• Breaking free from control, guilt, and old expectations
• Reinventing yourself after divorce: rediscovering joy, identity, and your own wants

In this episode of Stacy Phillips & Friends, Stacy sits down with co-host Katie Cazorla and the one-and-only Nicole Sullivan — actress, comedian, voiceover legend, and all-around scene-stealer from Mad TV, Family Guy, Kim Possible, and more. What starts as a hilarious catch-up between girlfriends quickly becomes a deeply relatable conversation about confidence, aging, reinvention, and the sheer absurdity of show business.

Nicole shares how she went from dreaming of Shakespeare festivals to accidentally landing Mad TV after scribbling characters on a Post-it note. She opens up about her long career in Hollywood, her most beloved characters, and the very specific (and very sexist) poker scandal that still has us fuming on her behalf. 

But this episode is also about something bigger: the vulnerability and strength that come with being a woman over 40 in an industry obsessed with youth. Nicole talks candidly about shifting careers, voiceover work, the pressure to stay “camera-ready,” and why she’s choosing joy, humor, and authenticity over perfection. Katie adds her own comedic brilliance, sharing stories from the road and learning to age fearlessly.

It’s funny, fierce, heartfelt, and wildly relatable — a reminder that women are allowed to evolve, laugh at themselves, and lift each other up… all while wearing flats.

If you want a dose of Hollywood insanity, and enough laugh-out-loud moments to make your mascara run, this is your episode.

✨ EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS

• How Nicole went from regional-theater dreams to landing Mad TV with zero formal comedy training.
• The real story behind the celebrity poker showdown — and why Nicole and Jennifer Tilly were pushed out of the final round.
• What it’s actually like aging in Hollywood and why Nicole says it’s more about economics than ego.
• Nicole’s voiceover career: Family Guy, Kim Possible, Penguins of Madagascar and more fan-favorite roles.
• The pressure women feel to look put together and how Stacy navigated that through motherhood, trial work, and the pandemic.
• The importance of community, mentoring younger women, and why women over 50 deserve more representation onscreen.
