Thank You For Asking

On this week’s episode, we’re on a mission! It can’t be just us left confused when interacting with the bros. Whether it’s our significant others, our friends, or even our brothers, we are perplexed. The guys are something else so we’re sitting down with an expert. Husband, father, artist, and to date one of only two men to sit down for an interview on our show!

As one of Amber’s best friends, Izzy is here to give us an inside look on guy code and how the journey through self-reflection and leaning into vulnerability helps us become better partners, better friends, and better people. But don’t worry we also talk about the mess that is dating these days and advice on how to navigate that whole ghetto scene.

This week we have a very special episode of Thank you for Asking! In this new season of the show, we wanted to rethink how we’re engaging with you all on our no guests episodes. Today, then, is the very first time that in addition to having Amber share her thoughts and experiences on a topic we’ll get to hear from all of you! So, a big thank you to everyone who called in and left voicemails!

In this episode, we’ll be diving into how we feel and don’t feel about living alone. Amber shares her own experiences so far with different living situations and what living alone has meant for her. We’ll also get to hear from our TYFA community and what the idea or reality of living alone has been for many of you. If you currently live alone, have thought about it, or know it’s in your future Amber also shares the lessons she’s learned and her advice on how to live your best when you’re living alone.

On this week’s episode, we have a guest we’ve been wanting to introduce to you all for far too long! Hitha Palepu is a master class on how to be a multi-hyphenate! She likes to say she is a pharmaceutical executive by day, but we call her “Our Inspiration!” Adding to that, she is also a mom, an author, a content creator, and a bona fide nerd and romance novel aficionado!

Hitha has had such a big impact in Amber’s life and we can’t wait to share this conversation with you. They talk through career, the joy in never mastering but always learning, and how being smart and informed can be less overwhelming than you think!

On this week’s episode, we sit down with Azanique Rawl an OG blogger, and Austin-based life and style content creator. We talk about her early days as a blogger and how she has channeled her passion for style and interior decor into helping others find theirs. We talk about living alone and how to plan for and make wherever you live work for you.

Not only does Azanique seem to do everything at once, but she does it with grace and humility! She talks with Amber about how she has always sought to center advocacy in her work and how helping others starts with taking care of yourself. She also has all the book recommendations for us so get your notepads ready!

On this week’s episode, we sit down with Karen Spears a designer, strategist, and a mind mapping extraordinaire. During this talk, Karen is here to teach us how to make the visions and goals we have for our lives a reality. Karen walks us through the early start of her career as a creative and the deep family entrepreneurial roots that continue to inform how she works today.

Amber and Karen break down the process of putting thoughts and big ideas to paper and how to mind map and strategize your way out of inaction. It’s time to take those big dreams and bring them to life! If you are someone who comes up with ALL the ideas, but sometimes struggles with where to start or how to work through them this episode is for you! And if you need ideas on the best kind of paper and pen to get your creative juices flowing, we’ve got you covered with a couple of our favorites!
