Moving to a new city as an adult can feel so exciting, but the loneliness and challenges you face when you start over is rarely talked about. Making friends can feel harder when those built-in social structures disappear. No school, no shared routines, just you intentionally putting yourself out there to break out of your shell, and build connections from scratch.

If you’ve ever felt this too, this episode about learning how to build community is for you xo

Have you ever wondered, what is my purpose? Why are certain things not aligning? In this episode I talk about the world of Numerology and the importance of Life Path numbers. Your Life Path number can reveal so much about your personality, challenges you face, and ultimately your purpose. Let's get into it!

Disclaimer: I am not a professional numerologist — this episode is based on research and was inspired by a discussion with my partner, Crystal and some friends :)

WELCOME TO QUEER BOOK CLUB! In this episode, I dive deep into Atmosphere by Taylor Jenkins Reid, covering the major themes, the beautiful queer love story, and all the details that make this book so compelling. Plus, I share who I’d cast if Atmosphere were ever adapted into a movie.

Warning: this episode contains major spoilers! I suggest you read the book, and then come back to this episode. Let's talk about it :)

Meet Steph and Stephanie! Wives, creators, and comedians Steph Squared TV join me to talk about ALL the things.

In this episode, I talk about why I think I might have OCD. This is a self-diagnosis based on years of patterns, thoughts, and behaviors I didn’t have words for — until recently. For a long time, I silently struggled with mental rumination, until it began to affect my daily life in a real and overwhelming way. While I’m now on the path toward finding therapy, I wanted to share my story for anyone who feels alone or is struggling with their mental health. I also touch on some common myths about OCD and share a few coping mechanisms that have helped me personally. Just to be clear — this is not medical advice. I’m not a licensed professional. I’m simply speaking from my own experience, hoping it resonates with someone out there.

I’m so excited to introduce you to my guests, Sam and Ali — aka The Wealthy Gays.

They’re newlyweds navigating their finances together for the first time, and in this episode we dig into what financial freedom really looks like for queer couples. We also get into how building wealth is a personal journey, and it looks different for each of us.

We talk about setting goals that reflect your own values, budgeting without shame, having open (and sometimes tough) money conversations with your partner, and unlearning the beliefs that hold us back. It’s candid, hopeful, and full of great takeaways.

Enjoy :)

Graduate school. Get a job. Buy a house. Get married. Have kids.

Society handed us a script — but Gen Z and Millennials? We’re are rewriting the whole thing.

And the queer community? We’ve been off-script from the start.

In this episode, I’m diving into love, timelines, starting over in your 30s, and why breaking societal norms is so much more common compared to past generations.

Welcome Ann Russo—an LGBTQ+ mental health advocate, educator, and founder of AMR Therapy, which has supported over 1,500 clients in the past four years.

With over 20 years of experience in mental health, Ann brings a blend of professional training and lived experience to the table. She holds a Master’s in Theology and has made it her mission to bridge the gap between faith, identity, trauma, and healing—especially for queer communities.

In this conversation, Ann opens up about growing up in a queer household in the 80s, the realities of mental health challenges queer people face today and what it was like attending a religious conversion therapy conference as a queer woman. Yes, you read that right.

She also shares many insights from her work—whether she’s training hospitals or therapists—on how we can all better support the queer community LGBTQ+ with care.
