This week's episode features Faigy Wachsman, a talented singer, songwriter, and voice coach.

Faigy also shares her journey with the struggles of infertility. She shares the pain, frustration, and heartbreak of unexplained infertility, as well as the things not to say to someone going through it and how you can be there for your friends and family who are navigating the journey of infertility.

Kathy Kleiner, a survivor of Ted Bundy, joins me today to share her remarkable journey of resilience and healing. Kathy opens up about her life, starting with her battle as a teenager against the physical and emotional toll of lupus, enduring chemotherapy, and later surviving a harrowing attack by one of history's most infamous criminals, Ted Bundy.

In this episode, Kathy recounts the terrifying night she survived Bundy's violent attack and the powerful steps she took to rebuild her life in the aftermath. She offers invaluable insights for family and friends on how best to support trauma survivors, emphasizing the vital message that the victim is never at fault. Kathy also shares heartfelt advice on what to say—and what to avoid saying—when supporting someone who has experienced trauma.

We also touch on a profoundly emotional topic: Kathy's experience with miscarriages, how they shaped her life, and why, in some ways, their pain has run deeper than her encounter with Bundy.

Before we begin, a gentle reminder: this episode contains discussions of violence and trauma. Listener discretion is advised.

Buy her book: "A Light In The Dark."

This episode continues my conversation with Malky B. If you haven't listened to part 1 yet, I recommend starting there before joining us for the rest of her story. In this segment, Malky explains why she chooses not to discuss her dating life publicly and shares her thoughts on the concept of attraction. She also addresses how she responds to curiosity about her preferences and discusses the idea of sexual fluidity. We also touch on her unique perspective on religion and how it intertwines with her journey of self-discovery and authenticity.

If you're ready for an honest, raw, and enlightening discussion, this episode is for you.

Note: This episode contains sexual references and is not suitable for children.
