Episodes
This episode is different from previous episodes. It's a myriad of conversations about tough times, rough roads, and perseverance. At times, this episode gets kind of dark, but only because it's very real. It's also quite bright, and I hope that it serves as a flickering torch of hope for anyone who is currently going through hell. Happy Summer Solstice. I'll see you in the fall.

Today I sat down with Paulie Skaja - my very own mom - to talk to her about a bunch of weird stuff. She has experienced a lot of amazing things in her life, from spirits and manifestation to business success and mindset transformation.
