I have been hiding from you, Totes Pod fans! Now I’m back with updates on the past year, just in case you haven’t already heard them from me.
Warning: this contains discussion of suicide and suicidal thoughts and suicide attempts.
If you’re experiencing any of these yourself please call 988 in NYC or talk with your therapist. In extreme cases where your life is at risk please call 911, or please go to the emergency room you trust most.
Listen as I cry and give a special tribute to the one who’s always been too good to be true. I suggest you revisit the episode I made called “Challenging My Pedestals” as a charming companion to this episode.
Also, Anderson Cooper’s podcast I mention in this episode is called “All There Is with Anderson Cooper”…. You must listen to it! It’s brilliant, and made me fall ever more deeply in love with him.
Was cut off rudely by my reminder to move my car (lol), please enjoy the 2nd part of my Astoria Park walk! Beautiful bird sounds in the background enhance the experience here.
Life is NOT fair (and I’m telling myself to get over it), and Astoria Park has a running track!
Loves it. Abi Totes shares some updates. She is so exhausted, notice how she signs off at the end!
Get excited! I share how I was inspired to choose a word of the year (thank you to the incomparable Priscilla Hummel!!!!!)…. And I talk a lot about my journey with gratitude.

A glimpse into an evening of public crying, mostly on the C and N trains. A cool, rainy, magical evening of releasing pain and feeling the ghosts of my life ever presently as I traversed the city’s underbelly.
Yet another love letter to my city.
