I remember my eldest brother had the Tragic Kingdo I remember my eldest brother had the Tragic Kingdom CD, and I loved to borrow it and play it over and over. I remember thinking @gwenstefani was the prettiest girl in her shiny red dress. 😍 

Fast forward to seeing @nodoubt play at @spherevegas and checking off the bucket-list wish of seeing them live! We also stopped by the No Doubt Experience which had a lot of their memorabilia, which was super fun to see. That black-and-white dress is the dress that Gwen wore to prom! ❤️

Vegas was fun as always and then I was ready to leave lol. Have you seen No Doubt before? 🎶

NEW solo episode of The Bets Life Podcast 🎙️ Epi NEW solo episode of The Bets Life Podcast 🎙️ 

Episode 67: On the Fence: An Honest Conversation About Being Childfree, Motherhood Indecision, and Life in Your Mid-Thirties 🎤 

In this solo episode of The Bets Life Podcast, I’m discussing something that I’ve been personally struggling with for a long time: the indecision surrounding starting a family. What if you’re not sure if you want kids? What if you’ve never felt certain about being a mom? What if you feel like your fertility window is quickly shrinking? What if you’ve been waiting for that “aha” moment, but it hasn’t arrived? 🫤

This episode is all about being in the “messy middle” and being “on the fence.” Not fully in, not fully out. Just…trying to figure it out. 🤔 

I share what it’s been like to be asked, “When are you having kids?” constantly, the fear of choosing the wrong path, and why more and more women are finding themselves in limbo over the motherhood decision. 🤷‍♀️ 

If you’ve ever felt stuck, confused, or even a little guilty for not having a clear answer, then this episode is for you. 💗
