After what seems like months of laryngitis and colds, I can finally jump on the podcast solo to give life updates. 

I'm vulnerable and extremely honest this week, speaking about how my anxiety has been at an all time high and hopefully the culprit is medicine interaction.  I share how my husband, Mike, navigates my moments and is so helpful.  

Also, a few funny stories about my hysterical mother's boyfriend, Papi J, and how he is family friends with our previous podcast guest, Maureen Pollack.


Lastly, I share some interesting news around my charity work, and how I actually might be much more techy than I think! 

The top takeaways from the conversation:


[00:46] giving me severe severe anxiety through the roof, if you know me you know that is how I came, or how I was made.


[5:28] Mike knows me, and knows how to work my personality, or how to help me and sometimes that’s coddling and hugging and other times it's tough love. He tells me I need to be tough for West, and I get anxious when I drive in the car.  I tell myself West is in the car this is not about you, you have to be the best version of yourself 


[10:02]  Of course my mom and Jeffrey were waiting to listen to my podcast with the sex toy lady. Turns out Maureen Pollack is good friends and neighbors with Jeffrey's son and daughter-in-law.  


[12:41] It’s so funny when you take a step back and look how others might perceive you versus how you perceive yourself
