Chris Flynn of Bflo Pizza Bistro is on the podcast today! Y'all, I have been shook over how this podcast has opened doors to meeting new people doing really cool things. I met Chris while with a friend at Free Street Tavern. When he was introduced to me as the owner of Bflo Pizza Bistro, my first thoughts were - wow that is so cool, I need to know more about how he got to this point! However, it came out verbally as "what gave you the audacity to open a pizza shop in Buffalo?" Lol. Oopsie.Luc...

DJ A is on the pod today! Andrew had a love for music from day one. But he didn't pursue it as a career right away!

Hey, y'all. It's been a weird week. I've been in a funk for no real reason. For me, when anxiety appears, it takes the form of a tight chest and decision paralysis. Which is why I'm posting this podcast at 10:45PM on the day it should be up. In this episode, I share how imposter syndrome and people-pleasing accosted me the last few days and the things I did tonight to help break me out of the spiral I've been sliding down. If this was a rough week for you too, you're not alone. I do...
My brother is on the podcast today!! I know I say this a lot, but this really was one of my most favorite episodes to record, DEFINITELY my most favorite to edit, and it's such a good listen, too. John Marciniak is Marciniak #6 of the 9 of us, and he has been an entertainer since birth. I have proof weaved into this episode - I inserted a clip from a "Family Documentary" project I did in college and John was probably around 9-years-old then. He and my brother Tyler (#3) started their band yea...
Oh boy was this a fun one!! Sensual embodiment coach, Sarah Caputi, aka Sarah Sofia Wilde, and I have been friends for 10+ years. We have known so many different versions of each other, but Sarah has been through quite an evolution of self, especially when it comes to her divine femininity. We get into all of it in this episode - what got her here, the challenges she's experienced along the way, and even the self-pleasure practice she suggests everyone take up (did we mention this episode is ...
Mike "Shooky" Ciesiulka, co-owner of JJ's Casa Di Pizza and fan-fave bartender at Free Street Tavern joined me in studio today! We got to record in Casa which was awesome (check it out on the YouTube!) so apologies for some of the background noise/music - but I think it adds to the esthetic 🕺🏼Mike and I talked about where he grew up, teaching CCD classes at OLBS in Depew, his career trajectory (he first started working at Casa Di Pizza when he was 16!), and things that bring him joy in ...
Paul Fanara of Living in the Buff photography on the podcast today! Paul is a photographer, writer, filmmaker, IT genius, dad, and generally just the nicest guy you'll meet. We talked about how he met his current partner (IRL!), when and why he started his own IT consulting business, and how it felt coming back to photography after a few years without it. I truly appreciate any time I get to chat with Paul, so I was really excited to be able to share this convo with you. I hope you enjoy...
This one is a biiiiiiiiiiit personal, some might argue, a bit too personal? I bring my sister on and consume two bottles of wine while we talk dating in 2024. Definitely not one for the kids, ensure there are no children around that can hear this when you do. Trust and believe the public podcast will not have content like this again 😅 But once I officially launch the Patreon (a membership platform that you will be able to sign up for to get extra content and some fun goodies from me!), this w...
This episode went on a lot longer than I thought it would 😂 I've been doing a lot of putting my money where my mouth is over the last year and I have started seeing some really great results from it. So in this episode I share where I've been investing my time, energy and money, in the hopes that it'll inspire you to do the same for yourself.Going through a major life change has pushed me to focus more energy on becoming the person I want to be. But you don't have to uproot your whole life to...
Composting, recycling, landfills... oh my! I finally got my episode with sustainability engineer John Atkinson! Recycling has always been such a mystery to me so I was grateful to be able to ask some of the questions that have been swirling around my brain for a while. It turns out that recycling IS in fact important. We actually do make a difference when we do it properly. Additionally, we should all be composting. John walks us through how and what that looks like, which again before ...
We're trying something new this week! YouTube. Can you believe? It's been confirmed from our guru at the Buffalo Public Library, the brilliant Jordan, that we can use camera equipment there! So that means sometimes you will see us recording with guests in the library, and other times you will see me in the studio in my home office. And still, other times, you are gonna see me god knows where because I occasionally bring the mic to wherever our guests are. This week we're in my log cabin livin...
Solo episode today, baby. In this episode I discussed 3 passages from the book "Untamed" by Glennon Doyle, a book I now truly feel all women should read, especially women going through a major life transition. I talk about guiding kids through tough times, how there is racism in all of us (did I stutter), and that living a truly magical life takes courage. Hope you enjoy listening as much as I did recording ✨Subscribe to the new YouTube Channel! @mostlyallfiguredout Follow us on Instagram: @m...

I'm so happy I am doing this again, y'all. Like you have no idea how much this fills my soul right up. Episode 2 of this season was actually recorded at the tail end of season 1, before I knew that I really had to take a break. Josh White and I had a great convo about the journey that brought him to owning Free Street Tavern, an awesome spot on Niagara Street for a cocktail or a beer, and the chillest vibes. I was super excited to hear about how he did it after hearing that he had been workin...
Oh my gracious how I have missed this. I am so so so so happy to be kicking off season 2 (FINALLY)!! It's been a fucking ride the last few months, y'all. Each day I'm living somewhere between extreme gratitude and extreme devastation. I share this because it's likely the current season I'm in will guide my conversations with future guests on the show. I won't be afraid to ask the tough questions this time. So buckle up y'all, season two is about to go DEEP!Thanks for listening and sharin...
