Breaking News, Breaking Patterns: A Journalist who Stopped Reporting and Started Revealing

from Up + Adam with Adam Montiel · host Adam Montiel

Today on Up+Adam, Adam sits down with Emmy-nominated journalist and host of The Bright Side, Simone Boyce. From breaking news to breaking cycles, Simone opens up about her transition from the hard edges of national news to the warmer, deeper spaces of cultural storytelling and soul-level joy. They get into it all. What it's like leaving legacy media for something more personal. How motherhood rewired her approach to journalism. And why “choosing the bright side” isn’t just optimism. It’s a practice. Simone shares a vulnerable turning point at a trauma retreat, her favorite guest moments, and what it’s taught her about listening, leading, and letting go. This one’s for the storytellers, the seekers, and anyone who needs a reminder that softness isn’t weakness. It’s power.
