Welcome to Glow Up and Show Up, the podcast for the girlies who are ready to stop numbing and start becoming. I’m your host, Mary Lacey Banks: former party girl turned podcaster, speaker, and your personal hype woman for the biggest glow up of your life. The glow up isn’t a trend. It’s not a diet. It’s a mindset. A lifestyle. A lifelong journey of becoming who you were always meant to be. Each week, I share coaching, honest conversations, and Glow Work to help you create a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. Let’s glow, babygirl. ✨

#43 From My Dad’s Basement to 43 Episodes Later - How Podcasting Helped Me Heal, Grow, and Start Over

This week’s episode is a full-blown celebration—balloons, crowns, confetti, and all! It’s not only my 31st birthday, but also the 2-year anniversary of The Mary Lacey Banks Show. And to celebrate? I’ve got two of my favorite people—Ashley Whitmore and Kylie Lewis—on the mic for a special “turn the tables” episode. That’s right: this time, they’reinterviewing me.

We get into it all:
✨ What 29-year-old Mary thought she needed
🎈 Why I started this podcast in my dad’s basement
💗 How podcasting changed my life, sobriety, confidence & purpose
🎤 The moment I finally got paid to speak on stage
🤡 The power of showing up—even when no one’s clapping
🥤 My questionable (but passionate) love for McDonald’s Diet Coke
👑 Why this show is truly my baby

This is one of my favorite episodes we’ve ever recorded—funny, honest, chaotic, and filled with heart. Whether you’re celebrating something big or quietly hoping for your own fresh start, this one’s for you.

🎁 What I'm claiming this year: more fun, more freedom, more women stepping into their power.

🧁 Grab your crown. Plug in. And let’s celebrate, baby.
