In this episode (which was recorded in February 2026) I sit down with my dear friend, Ali Bravo, and we talk about our shared way of moving in the world which includes a pull toward exhibitionism... in many different ways. This is about being a vulnerable storyteller. Whether it's through writing and art, or on social media, or just with friends or in community.

We get into why we're called to be so out and loud and sometimes messy or shocking in the world, and also the ways we've strengthened this muscle over time, and even what can go wrong and how to move through that. If you're someone who wants to feel more expressed and raw in how you share privately or publicly, we've got ideas and tips for ya! Plus, some fun little stories sprinkled in for you to enjoy.

This was the perfect topic to celebrate 30 episodes of the Another Way podcast, which has been a potent and healing outlet for sharing more and more of myself with the world - and uplifting others' voices so they can do the same. I hope you enjoy it!

Oh and here's the Ignite Talk I mention in the episode: Insights from the Dick Funnel

In this episode I bring back my first repeat guest and who was the first interview on Another Way... Ginny Muir! We do an even deeper dive into death cycles, including our own experiences with them this year. We talk about long form death cycles, how to navigate a death cycle, the importance of community care, and a whole lot more. We go deep y'all... and it's good!

**TRIGGER WARNING: This epsiode does include conversations around suicide and suicide ideation.

Ginny is a transformational guide, mentor, and coach. She's also been my coach off and on for 4 years now, and I couldn't speak more highly of her - she's really amazing and incredibly talented and skilled at what she does. She has over 15 years of experience "guiding brave humans through deep inner alchemy. Ginny helps transmute fear, shame, trauma, and conditioning into power, self-trust, and presence."

I had the absolute pleasure of sitting down with Minna Dubin, author of MOM RAGE: The Everyday Crisis of Modern Motherhood. We talked about all the things that not enough people (in my humble opinion) are naming and talking about in regards to Moms and the expectations and pressure we put on them, paired with all the ways we are not supporting, acknowledging, or listening to them.

We asked the questions, "Why is motherhood not working for so many people?" and "Why are so many women not choosing motherhood?" Minna not only shares vulnerably around her own experiences but also has a wealth of research and recommendations for things we can actually do to help shift things.
