From Bravo’s Love Hotel to the real work of healing, Earl “the Pearl” Thompson has lived through stages that most of us only watch from a distance. In this conversation, we get real about taking breaks—whether in relationships, careers, or life itself—facing fear head-on, and why kindness is the boldest thing you can choose.
Earl shares his journey from TV personality to expert witness and actor, while I open up about the ways fear and breaks have shaped my own story this past year. Together, we remind you that breaks don’t have to break you, fear doesn’t get the final say, and kindness is what keeps us moving forward.

What happens when we stop shrinking ourselves to fit someone else’s story? In this raw and empowering conversation, I’m joined by my friend Morgan Norman — intuitive eating coach, self-love advocate, and founder of The Self Love League — to talk about all things body image, objectification, and reclaiming our power.
We’re pulling back the curtain on the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways society treats women’s bodies like public property, and how that constant scrutiny shapes our confidence, self-worth, and even our relationships. From the way strangers comment on our appearance, to the media’s impossible beauty standards, to those everyday moments that make you want to shrink into the background — we’re breaking it all down.
Morgan shares her journey from chasing an “ideal” body to living in food freedom and radical self-acceptance, plus actionable tools you can start using today to protect your energy and own your body, your story, and your worth.
If you’ve ever felt like you had to change yourself to be loved, or that your value was tied to your appearance, this episode will feel like a deep breath and a permission slip to take up space unapologetically.
🎧 Listen in for:
How objectification shapes body image from a young age
The industry, and celebrities like sabrina carpenter being sexualized.
Why confidence is a practice, not a personality trait
The truth about “perfect bodies” (and why they’re a scam)
Practical ways to start unlearning body shame today

When the Mirror Became a Battleground
What if everything you believed about diet culture’s origins was only the surface?
In Part 2 of this groundbreaking series, Ry and French PhD student Kellie Giordano go even deeper—unearthing how centuries of spiritual sacrifice, patriarchal control, and historical shame quietly shaped the way we see our bodies today.
This episode explores:
✝️ How saints’ fasting rituals became twisted into early blueprints for disordered eating
🌹 Why femininity, food, and worth were tangled long before Instagram
📿 The spiritual pressure placed on Catholic girls through the myth of purity
🧠 When anorexia went from divine to diagnosable—and what that shift means
💸 How diet culture thrives as a billion-dollar industry fueled by fear, control, and consumerism
💔 Why so many of us grieve the birthdays, holidays, and milestones we couldn’t fully enjoy—because food became the enemy
This isn’t just history. It’s personal. It’s political. It’s a reclamation.
It’s time to take back the narrative—one bite, one belief, one brave conversation at a time.

We talk:
• What “othering” really means (and how to name it when it happens)
• How chronic illness and disability impact relationships
• Being in love while being in pain
• Accessibility, advocacy, and refusing invisibility
• Why you don’t have to be “fixed” to be worthy of care
It’s a story of resilience, softness, and rebellion from the margins.
Because sometimes, the ones they tried to leave out?
They’re the ones rewriting the story.
