The Steppers Cruise is over, and trust me, working on a cruise ship is NOT the same as being on vacation! This week on Classy & Sassy, I'm catching up on The Traitors: New Blood, questioning whether Dancing with the Stars is a dance competition or a popularity contest, and sharing why Special Forces keeps me coming back. I'm also talking about my reading slump, how my reading goals may be taking the fun out of books, and getting personal about mental health, motivation, and knowing when it's time to ask for help. Plus, I'm considering a home office makeover that may be more complicated than I bargained for. Grab your coffee, tea, or wine. We've got a lot to catch up on! Send us Fan Mail

A Different World is back, but some of the conversation has shifted from the show to Jasmine Guy's appearance and the double standard around women aging. The Traitors: New Blood is bringing a whole new audience to the castle, and the newly announced celebrity cast already has us wondering what Gizelle Bryant will do with all that suspicion. Plus, the Savannah James first-class debate raises a bigger question: If you have more money than your friends, are you expected to pay for them? Then we close with a serious discussion about the Cornell University allegations and the questions they raise about intoxication, consent and the law. Send us Fan Mail

Dating in 2026 has me asking a LOT of questions. From men who want freedom but still expect women to wait around, to dating horror stories that have other women deciding single life doesn't sound so bad, we're getting into what might actually be changing. Then we're talking reality TV and the double standards contestants face when gender and race affect who gets called confident, messy, passionate or "aggressive." I'm also sharing why I've finally stopped feeling guilty about DNFing books I don't enjoy, and why everybody seems to have an opinion about how other people spend their money. Grab your coffee, tea, or wine - because apparently there are a few unwritten rules we need to discuss.  Send us Fan Mail

This week, we're talking about the things that somehow became normal without any of us agreeing to them. Why do we feel entitled to every detail of celebrities' relationships, and why won't we let them leave their exes in the past? I'm also asking whether we've forgotten how to be bored, who decided women have to live by "age-appropriate" rules, and whether the book really has to be better than the screen adaptation. Plus, when did every hobby need to become a side hustle? Grab your coffee, tea, or wine, because I've got questions... and a few opinions too.  Send us Fan Mail

This week, nobody asked me, but here we are. 😂 I'm talking about my unexpected obsession with The Traitors, why the right workplace culture can matter just as much as the opportunity, and why the trad wife vs. independent woman debate gets people so worked up. Plus, I'm tackling the never-ending battle with clutter, getting back on track with my reading goals, and sharing more of the behind-the-scenes journey as I write my own books. A little pop culture, a little life, a little business, and plenty of opinions. Send us Fan Mail

This week we're talking about a little bit of everything. Is reality TV changing the way we think about dating, or is it simply exposing what's already happening? I'm also discussing why memoirs and thrillers both have a place on my bookshelf, why adults stop trying new things, and one of the biggest lessons entrepreneurship has taught me about pricing, confidence, and attracting the right clients. Grab your coffee, tea, or wine, and let's have a conversation. Send us Fan Mail

"Be his peace." "Nah....Be his karma!" If you've spent any time on social media lately, you've probably seen the debate.  In this episode of Classy & Sassy, I'm taking a step back from the comments section to explore what people really mean when they talk about peace, leadership, submission, and partnership. Are we listening to understand, or are we reacting to the stories and experiences we've attached to those words? This isn't about choosing sides. It's about asking better questions. Join me as we unpack one of the internet's favorite relationship debates and consider whether the real conversation has been hiding underneath the viral sound bites all along. Send us Fan Mail

This week, we're covering a little bit of everything. I'm sharing my thoughts on the latest Love Island episodes. We're also talking about the internet's inability to let people grow, why memoirs have become one of my favorite genres, the books currently on my nightstand, and whether we've become a little too comfortable staying in situations that no longer serve us. Grab your coffee, tea, or wine, and let's have a conversation.  Send us Fan Mail

If I had to sum up this week in one word, it would be pivot. Not because everything went wrong, but because almost everything required me to adjust. My work. My expectations. Even what I've been watching somehow turned into life lessons. And the more I thought about it, the more I realized that maybe pivoting isn't a sign that we're off track. Maybe it's exactly how we stay on track when life inevitably changes.  Send us Fan Mail

This week we're talking reality TV, reading goals, celebrity memoirs, and one lesson that hit me harder than expected: being the reliable one comes with a cost. From Love Island and Temptation Island to learning how to stop putting myself last, this episode is a candid conversation about balance, boundaries, and getting back to the things that matter to you. Plus, I'm sharing what I'm reading next and why memoirs continue to fascinate me. Pour a glass, get comfortable, and let's talk. Send us Fan Mail

In this episode of Classy and Sassy, we’re talking about the cost of not knowing your worth.

We also touch on imposter syndrome, personal growth, and what it means to show up with confidence in new spaces. Send us Fan Mail

There’s a pattern that keeps showing up online… and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. A woman comes forward with receipts. Clear proof. Screenshots, timelines, everything laid out. And somehow… it still gets questioned. In this episode, we’re talking about what happens when the focus shifts from what actually happened to how she responded. Why proof doesn’t always lead to accountability. And how quickly the narrative can be rewritten, even when everything is right there. Because at a certain point, it’s not about the receipts. It’s about what people are willing to acknowledge. Send us Fan Mail

From understanding the difference between emotional maturity and emotional availability to realizing that closure is something you give yourself, this conversation dives into what growth actually looks like in real life. We also get into boundaries and what it means when you are consistently not a priority in someone’s life, along with how to recognize patterns and move differently. Plus, I’m sharing what I’m currently reading for both the nonfiction and fiction book clubs, along with a new app I discovered that helps organize your entire book collection. If you’ve been feeling that quiet shift within yourself, this episode will help you put it into words. Grab your coffee, tea, or wine and let’s talk. Send us Fan Mail

This week on Classy & Sassy we’re diving into the Love Is Blind wedding episodes, where only two couples actually made it to “I do.” We also talk about the record-breaking opening weekend for the new Scream movie and two upcoming reality shows already creating buzz. Then the conversation shifts into something deeper: the influencer era, the growing pressure to build a public platform, and why so many people delay living their lives while waiting to feel “ready.” Plus a quick update on the new nonfiction book club and where you can continue the conversation through the newsletter.
