Hi First Timers! When I recorded this episode I was 20 weeks pregnant (I'm 30 now!) Wild! I've gotten a lot of questions as to what I did differently to prep for this pregnancy and wanted to do an in depth solo episode on everything I've done in the last almost 2 years since my last pregnancy in hopes that it helps any fellow hopeful parents potentially fill in the gaps that may be the bridge between wh...
Today I’m talking with two of my good buddies Amy Vale & Adam Jackson. I’ve been wanting to do an episode on this topic as I have some friends who have become foster parents or who have considered/are considering it and I knew Amy and Adam could shed some light on what the experience is like for all of us.
Episode highlights:
-how to stay connected as a couple through fostering

Hi First Timers! I’m excited to bring my friend, vocal coaching client and writer Eliza Cossio to you today. Eliza is a multi-talented creative but her main gig is writing for TV.

Eliza has ...

Today I'm talking with JoClub CEO, World Traveler and 8x Polyglot Jo Franco about what it REALLY takes to become multi-lingual.

Jo makes ...
