Another New York episode of The Rheeality Podcast is up, and it could not be more fitting to have the "Modern Day Carrie Bradshaw" herself, Caroline Vazzana! Caroline is an Author, Fashion Editor, Stylist, one of The Knot's Most Influential Crew, and since this interview was recorded, newlywed!

Caroline and I talk about her authentic and vibrant self-expression, where it comes from, and how it relates to her fashion. The confidence to live in her truth and truly live your brand. She also shares some of her wins and woes, from the early days of social media, her college years working at Teen Vogue and InStyle, being able to take challenging work experiences and use them for motivation, and how to best be unapologetically you.

What I love about this conversation is that your style and self-expression are part of your self-discovery, which is constantly evolving, so don't let anyone dull or water down how you want to represent yourself. As Caroline says, "Maximalism is in," so be you to your fullest!

We continue our New York episodes this week with the official NYC Gay Dad himself, José Rolón! I love it when you meet someone, and the conversation comes easily, the moment I met José, you just knew, theres a quality human there! The guarantee is you're going to laugh, and most importantly, it's a safe and loving space. José gets really candid about where he is in his life, what it is to be a viral sensation on TikTok with his beautiful children, costars, Avery, Lilah, and London, being a single working parent, the phenomenal support system in his friends, and the blossoming career! We also recently became cohosts for @LoveStoriesTV Holiday specials, which is another testament to him, he supports and shares opportunities with other creators as well! You do not want to miss this conversation! 

You can also catch José on the Wedding Talk Show! 

@theRHEEALITY Podcast is back and so excited for 2023 with all new episodes as we head to the East Coast for these special NY episodes! Whenever I am in New York, I must see my longtime friend, photographer, and activist, @CindyTrinh.Photo @ActivistNYC! We had a laugh-out-loud conversation, from the topics of love and heartbreak, her former career as a lawyer, discovering her queerness, and the many adventures we had over twenty years ago as raver kids! 

You can listen on all streaming platforms. You can watch us on the YouTube channel @theRHEEALITY! 

On this week's @theRHEEALITY Podcast, I interview the beautiful Justina Sharp! We talk about her early start in the blogger/influencer space and how her career and brand transform as she evolves and experiences her big life moments. Justina is a recent newlywed and has created a unique community in the wedding industry as an advocate and voice for the modern and, dare I say, "sharp" bride. You can watch and listen! 

PS, I will be taking a short hiatus as we gear up for a busy Fall Wedding and Event Season, so make sure to catch up on all episodes! We'll be back with new episodes in November!

This week's episode of #theRHEEALITYPodcast is about having faith in yourself, taking the leap, and going for the big dream.

Rachel Hroncich and I met while acting together in an award-winning web series called Sycamore Valley. Even though we played rival real estate agents on the show behind the scenes, it was pure joy and laughter as we became friends offscreen. 

In Rachel's first podcast interview we have this honest conversation as she steps into this new phase of her life. She recently left her full-time career in healthcare as a Hospital Pharmacist to pursue her dream. So listen and watch as Rachel and I talk about her journey to LA, being on the front lines during Covid, to finally choosing to live her dream as a Screenwriter.

Growing up, I was not the most academically focused student. I definitely learned through working in life and through failing, but I can honestly say I had some really excellent teachers and mentors along the way who taught me to always reach for my dreams.

I really believe education is such an essential part of human development, but who the educator is, makes all the difference. Those who dedicate themselves to working in education and caring for children and teens really do not get the credit they deserve.

So I could not be more excited to share this conversation I had with an Elementary School Principal on her very first Podcast interview! My hilarious friend Mihoko Chida and I have been friends for over twelve years, but she has been out of the country for the majority of that time. It was great to sit face to face and get to know more about her journey in education and what it is like living and teaching around the world.

In this week's The Rheeality Podcast episode, the creative and beautiful actress, author, and dancer, Amanda Suk joins me in an honest, vulnerable, and unedited conversation.

Sharing from our similar Korean American perspectives, we talk about the development of being an artist, the evolution of her children's book "Life Lessons with Libra Ryan," and the strength it all takes to keep going. 

Amanda is truly an artist, and I would add "fearless" to her long list of credits.

One of the best things about the wedding industry is those exceptional professionals and businesses (around the world) working towards better change and impact on our community. 

Earlier this year, I was honored to be a part of Hank Paul's First Look, a four-part podcast on how marriage equality is transforming the wedding industry. 

Now, that conversation was remote from about 8,000 miles away from one another, so when I found out Hank was heading "over the pond" to California, we had to make time to meet. 

Listen and watch our first in-person meeting and conversation as we discuss our purpose, Queer Wedding Ally Training, being an Educator, the Wedding Industry in Australia, and our early coming of age and out experiences!

This year has been quite the journey, and with any adventure in life and business, it comes down to a fundamental rule, just SHOW UP. SHOW UP for your dreams, SHOW UP for your work, SHOW UP for your family, community, your word, and show up for YOU.

This episode is all about relationships and maybe my lack of the romantic kind lol. Christine Chang, a best-selling author, Speaker, Photographer, and friend, shares her journey, her success in relationships, and what it means to #ShowUp.

You can now watch this conversation on The Rheeality YouTube Channel, as well as the NEW Spotify Video!
