Episode 45: My Love Story: How I met my husband

Welcome back to The Bets Life Podcast for Season 4! I’ve missed these conversations, and I am thrilled to bring you a fresh mix of guest interviews and more-personal-than-ever solo episodes for this 4th season!


I’m diving deeper into my own life experiences this season, and since this podcast launch coincides with Valentine’s Day week, I thought that it would be appropriate to start with a love story. My love story, of course. I know that many of you may be curious about how I met my husband, Patrick. I may be (very) biased, but it’s my favorite love story, and it involves many laughs, 2011 fashion, and a pencil-scribbled number on an essay in Boulder, CO. 


This story is one that friends, friends of friends, and even strangers have retold over the years, and now I’m excited to share it with you all! Happy early Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day – wishing you all so much love this week!

Episode 57: Feeling Behind in Life? Here’s the Truth You Need to Hear 🥰

If you’ve ever felt like you’re falling behind, whether it’s in your career, your relationships, your finances, or just life in general, this episode is for you. (Also, trust me, we’ve all been there.) 😅

In today’s episode, I’m unpacking the pressures to keep up, the myth of “being behind,” and the sneaky trap of comparison. We chat about focusing on what you actually want to achieve (not your friends, parents, or society) and the reminder that life’s successes and failures are not linear. I get candid about how these feelings have shown up in my own life, from weddings and babies to career pivots and personal growth, and why it’s beautiful that we all bloom at our own pace. 🌼 

I also share a lovely mantra that I discovered that reframes the idea of “falling behind” and instead helps you fall into your own life. 💓

Cowboy Carter and Queen @beyonce 🤠 My voice i Cowboy Carter and Queen @beyonce 🤠 

My voice is still half gone and I’m moving slowly today lol. What an incredible show. I’m always left in awe. 🤯

Have you seen Beyoncé live? It’s so fun to watch her daughter, Blue Ivy, perform too. She’s already so talented (not shocking lol). 👏🏻
