Probably Shouldn’t Be Recording This

In this episode, with surgery four days away, I reflect on filling out my will and the grounding realization that my most valuable assets have never been things. I open up about the anxiety surrounding my upcoming hernia surgery, made heavier by the memory of a brain hemorrhage that followed my last “routine” procedure. I also share a deeply personal story about my best friend Justin — and a night 17 years ago he may not even know saved my life.

In this episode, I get my FMLA approval, complain about the American healthcare system, and come to the conclusion that while money can’t buy happiness, being broke absolutely accelerates sadness. Also, someone in Spain is listening and I’m not over it.

In this episode, I dive into my surgery update, the frustrating reality of FMLA and not knowing when your next paycheck is coming, and the political climate that has all of us losing our minds. As always, go with love.

In this episode, I’m sick, exhausted, and sentimental — talking about medical leave, anniversaries, and the person who made my life better.

In this episode, I share the results of my very stressful health scare (spoiler: not cancer), talk about the chaos in the world, react to the Super Bowl halftime shows, and celebrate a surprisingly great season from Nebraska basketball — all in a very unplanned, very me kind of episode.

In this episode, I talk through a sudden health scare, the anxiety that comes with waiting for answers, and the very real fear that shows up when your body does something it’s not supposed to. I also touch on the realities of navigating healthcare in this country and why talking things out sometimes feels like the only way forward.

In this episode, I get a little vulnerable and talk about a longtime habit of mine—creating fictional athletes in sports games and following their careers for years. We get into creativity, escapism, using AI responsibly, and why being weird, invested, and emotionally attached to imaginary Hall of Famers might actually be a good thing.

In this special episode, I talk about a career realization that hit me last week — feeling comfortable, but not fulfilled. We get into stagnation, wanting more, missing leadership, and why it’s okay to quietly start building your next chapter without burning your current one down.

In this episode, I talk about adjusting to working overnights, why ‘I’m not coming in’ is a complete sentence, and the importance of calling out bullshit calmly.

In this episode, I share some updates on my GLP-1 journey after two weeks, talk about the ever-fragile psyche of being a Husker fan, and open up about how exhausted I am with what’s happening in our country — and why I’m still choosing to hold onto hope.
