#69: In this episode we are reminiscing over the last 7 years since I was fired from my full-time corporate job in our annual "fired anniversary episode". My co-host, husband, baby daddy, Jordan interviews me and we chat about the evolution of my brand over the past 7 years since being fired, we reflect back on all the personal events of 2022, we look forward to what's in store for 2023 and answer some questions from listeners.
