Where I’ve Been..
Welcome to a new season! After a break I didn’t plan but really needed, I’m back with a full life catch-up. Since the last episode I moved into my own apartment for the first time and turned 30 (and I love it). I also accidentally started a handmade journal business. I talk about hosting a coloring club and a journal club, and being a counselor at a grief camp for kids who’ve lost a parent or sibling, which was one of the best weeks of my year. I also went to Lisbon, took a road trip through Germany and watched one of my best friends get married.
We also get into dating with a “roster” and whether my boredom is really fear in disguise. I talk about the “is marriage a trap?” side of TikTok, falling in love with making vertical videos and finally buying real high heels for my dream closet. Spoon turned two, and I tell the story of my YouTube channel getting hacked through a phishing scam, plus the surprise upside of daily calls with my dad. And because I’ve been church-hopping all year, you’ll hear about the best and the most ridiculous services I’ve been to.
Thank you for all your messages asking where the pod went. I missed you. Send in your questions, because next episode is a Q&A!
