Description

Welcome to At My Kitchen Table, a conversational, interview-y podcast where I have a good yap with a guest!


When I was growing up, the kitchen table was the conversation center in a lot of homes.  At my grandparents' house, friends and family alike were welcomed with connection as much as with drinks and food.  In my parents' house, that tradition continued as my siblings and I would post up and chat with my mom as she cooked or baked or tried to read a book (with much exasperation as we refused to shut up).  I found cozy similarity at my friends' homes with their parents, too.


Keeping with tradition, I create a space for everyone who visits my table, where we get to share a little bit of our journeys together - roses, thorns, and stems.

Welcome to a September Wednesday where the weather is starting to show hints of cooler days ahead! I am so honored to have one of my bonus kids, Tyler Hendzel, join me at my kitchen table this week to talk about his ability to maintain a healthy outlook on life despite the childhood chaos that propelled him into adult responsibilities at a really young age. Tyler basically lost two foundational family units by the time he was 13 and taught himself how to "leave home at home" while...

It’s good to be back, Teabags! Sean Patrick Sears is his government name, but you can call him Shaggy. He pulls up a seat at my kitchen table to kick off season 2 by regaling me with stories. Shaggy is an incredible storyteller whom I’d originally asked to chat about all things theater. But during background, I quickly realized that you can wind him up and point him in any direction, and you’ll get story time gold. In addition to speaking candidly about the difference ...

Hey Teabags! As you may know, I’m taking a little time off to steep! I’m on a short break for some relaxation and to prep new episodes for the Season 2 launch in September. But I’ll be honest, I’d planned a different episode for this week’s re-release. I made a last-minute pivot in light of recent news. Postpartum depression with psychosis has been front and center lately, and it feels like a good time to listen to Angela Myers talk about her postpartum journey. We don...
