What if I told you that a seemingly hopeless journey of addiction could transform into an inspiring story of recovery, redemption, and newfound hope? In this powerful episode, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Jack Raymond, one of my favorite writers, as he opens up about his raw and unfiltered experiences with addiction, the passing of his father, and the importance of finding a higher power in his path to recovery.
In this episode, I introduce you to one of my "pivot people." I define a pivot person as someone who is undoubtedly there for you, no matter which way life pivots. John Casuccio is one of these people for me. John was my general manager when I worked for a corporate relocation company and he was my manager when I had to quit working because of my heart issues.

I define a "pivot person" as someone who is unquestionably there for you, no matter which way life takes you or causes you to pivot. That person that is always on your side, even if everyone else has abandoned you. That person who teaches you what love can feel like when it's done the right way.
This week, I introduce you to one of my personal pivot people - Angie McKinley. Angie and I catch up in real ti...

In 2015 I was admitted to the hospital with congestive heart failure. I was 32 years old. Because of these medical issues, I had to walk away from my career at the time, sell my house and move back to my hometown, and reevaluate my entire life.

WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THIS WEEK?
This week, Leah talks about conversations. Are we losing the art of how to have them? Are we teaching our kids how to have them? Do we, as adults, know how to have them? Leah talks about her 2 cousins and the impact that they had on how she now has conversations with her son. Is there such a thing as too much conversation with our kids? Are there any topics that are off limits in the conver...
WHAT ARE WE TALKING ABOUT THIS WEEK?

She talks about how overwhelming it can be to be responsible for raising a kid in today’s day and age and she explores what she hopes to teach her son about the world around us. Leah shares a Facebook post that she wrote in September 2015 when she and her son, Isaac (age 2 at the time), went to the play...

Maybe you struggle with meeting people’s expectations? Or maybe you’re struggling to be accepted for who you are? Perhaps you’re struggling to find a community that feels like home?
In this pilot episode, I introduce myself to you by reading a compassionate letter addressed to my younger self, 20 years ago. In this profound letter, ...
When people ask me what it’s like to be a mom, people expect me to smile and talk nonstop about my child. I do that sometimes, but that’s not always how I feel inside.
Somewhere in the back of my head, I remember the anxiety, the frustrations, and all the ugly little details that come with being a mom that no one ever talks about.
In this episode, I’m reading a letter I wrote for all the moms out there who are feeling lost, confused,...
Are you someone like me—who longs to express herself and still keep that sense of anonymity because of the fear of being judged?
Well, that was before I realized that I just wasn’t in the right community. Because when I expressed myself to the right people, I felt safe and found that my efforts were reciprocated.
This episode is for you, my dear listeners. I wrote a letter to let you know that in this community, I acknowledge you f...
