Welcome to You Get What I'm Saying, your invitation to explore life through the lens of the girlfriend in your earbuds. Doing her best to live up to impossible standards in a material world, host Angie Griffith authentically and imperfectly shares her truth about what it looks like to be: figuring out life and business after stepping away from a decade+ career in the Music Industry, dating in Nashville in her 30s, letting go of the pressure to “manifest” her dreams, surrendering herself to God’s plan for her life– and the BTS of everything in between. When Angie talks to her IRL besties, she loves being able to chat openly and vulnerably, without judgment or expectations of serving up the perfect answers– and that's how she hopes to connect with you here! Often having no answers and no idea what's going on, Angie welcomes you each Tuesday into her own personal diaries, conversations with friends, and curious explorations.

Note: formerly titled Podfluencer Society, episodes 1-114 share insights and strategies specifically for podcasters.

Join me on a journey through the chaos of dating apps and the sheer exhaustion that comes with the quest for love in today's digital age. In this episode, I share my own experiences with various dating platforms, and I explain why I generally tend to "swipe left" the online dating scene all together. While I remain optimistic about finding the right person, I candidly discuss the challenges and rewards of online and IRL dating, offering insights and relatable anecdotes for anyone who has ever felt the frustration of swiping through endless profiles, wondering if meeting someone offline is still a remotely viable option.

I finally pulled the trigger on something I’ve been wanting to do for a while (something I don’t think I’ve EVER mentioned on the pod)!

The universal trap of equating worth with material achievements often sidelines the things that truly matter in life, so it's about time we self-reflect on the profound question of whether our identities are defined by what we do or who we are as individuals. Drawing from my own experience in the music industry- where success often hinges on endless milestones and titles- in this episode, I share a personal journey of breaking free from the confines of a job title and embracing another purpose. Our identities go far beyond job titles and status symbols; they are rooted in who we are and how we love and serve others. There is no "right" time for what matters most, only "time" and what we choose to do with it. So, what will you choose to do with yours?
