I sort of have a vulnerability hangover from this episode but, alas, I think you’ll really love it so that’s all that matters, right? 



Catherine and I took a magnifying glass to my past, as I described in crazy detail how I survived a hellish, dark period in my twenties. One I was convinced I’d never be able to talk about in retrospect…until now. 



We also talked about: 



Our 10 best tips for any of you that find yourself attending a wedding alone (or any party, for that matter).



My ‘Depression Folder’ and how to use it.



A couple quotes I love and live by.



What bras we’re wearing (and have been for the past ten years…).



And we discuss “friendship-freeloaders” and whether we should dump ‘em or keep ‘em.

Tell Me About It is the podcast manifestation of all the “off-the-record” conversations we’ve had with other women about things we’re taught to stay silent about -- from stumbling through our twenties, rejections, heartbreaks, fertility struggles, mental health challenges, mistakes, and the cringey shame spirals that keep us up at night. Host Jade Iovine and her guests challenge the idea of social media perfected lives and get very real about all the less-than-perfect and inevitable shitty moments we all go through. Tell Me About It is here to remind us that we’re not alone… and that the women we constantly compare ourselves to ALSO have lives that are far from perfect.

This week Tinx joined the TMAI group chat to talk VERY openly about the rollercoaster year she’s had. 



We talked about the theories she grew famous for, the tweets that got her canceled, and the book she wrote about it all: ‘The Shift’.



You may think you know her, or that you’ve made your mind up about her controversies, and hear me when I say all opinions are valid and welcome. What she reveals in this conversation is her firsthand, very personal account of what that experience was actually like to go through-–judgment and morality aside. To rise and fall, to have the internet and people you thought were your friends turn against you, to have to own the worst things you’ve done, and resist the urge to abandon yourself when everyone else is running for the hills…when the love and fame suddenly turns into public hate. 



You’ll hear her talk about all of it in this episode, like never before. 



The first half of our conversation is about everything from what would happen if people were honest about their relationships, choosing whether or not to sleep with someone you started dating, the tightrope-walk of living with the Big Three (Anxiety, Depression, and ADHD), to the failproof sex position Tinx swears by. Then, we take a deep dive into the darker side of Tinx’s story. 



As always, I want to know what you guys think - so DM me and we’ll talk allllll about it. And stay tuned for our big show announcement next Tuesday…

When ‘The Shift’ Hits The Fan feat. Tinx

I hate to be this girl BUT…we have a crazy exciting announcement for you next week so while we get ready for that I thought it’d be fun to revisit one of my favorite episodes.



Fun fact: I grew up next door to the Playboy Mansion. So, to me, the girls next door really were the Girls Next Door. 



It added another layer to my already colorful childhood, with parties and peacocks that kept me up for all hours of the night. 



But one incredible day in 2005, E! Released a brand new show called…THE GIRLS NEXT DOOR, and the lives of every millennial girl changed forever. The Girls Next Door was a reality show about The Playboy Mansion, Hugh Hefner and his three girlfriends Holly, Bridget and Kendra. These dynamic women quickly became the stars of the show, and captured the hearts of families and young women nationwide. The show gave us a look inside the wild lifestyle of three very different women with one common interest: their boyfriend. It showed their extravagant costumes, the parties they’d host, vacations and day trips all over the world, their butlers, lavish lifestyle, and many, many dogs. 



But, as with most things, their lives weren’t quite what they seemed. In addition to all the fun and playfulness the show captured, there was jealousy, manipulation, body issues, infighting, and a dark side to the boyfriend they were basically employed by. 



And damn, did we GO THERE… Holly and Bridget joined me on this week’s episode, and didn’t hold back about the years they lived at the mansion, dated Hef, and starred in (in my opinion !!!) one of the best reality shows of all time. Not only did we reminisce on the years we spent as neighbors, but they let me in on the secrets of the mansion, Hef’s world, the parts they’d rather forget, and everrrrryyything in between. 



We explored Holly’s neurodivergence, some of the sexual aspects of the girls’ relationships with Hef, how they feel about his death, and how it impacts the way they think about him now. They told me all about the drama inside the mansion, the excuses they’d use to get out of going out or sex, diet culture within the house, the rules they were expected to follow, and answered ALL our burning, behind-the-scenes questions we’ve spent the last decade dying to know. Don’t quote me on this, but this might be one of the juiciest TMAI episodes of all time.

Let’s Relive This: Growing Up Next Door To The Girls Next Door feat. Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/e73c998e-6e60-432f-8610-ae210140c5b1/clips/73ec2427-ff08-49db-a8a3-aff50108519b/transcript

This week I invited best-selling author, 15-year veteran of the beauty and fashion industry, Succession devotee, and secret hand model DANIELLE PRESCOD to hang with me. 



In October of 2022, Danielle released “Token Black Girl” - a refreshingly honest memoir about racial identity, pop culture, and delusions of perfection. 



This hour-long heart-to-heart is filled to the brim. We talked about everything from fibroids and egg-freezing, to growing up as one of the only Black girls in her school in Connecticut, and how that influenced (and maybe even catalyzed) her disordered eating. We dove into how she and her family are coping with her sister’s new role on Bravo’s hit show Summer House, and explored the concept of making peace with the idea of starting a family without a partner… and how that might radically change the experience of everyone desperately “searching” for their other half. 



I can’t recommend this book enough…
