Francesca Mariano: Behind the Mic

from The Squeeze

In this week’s episode, Tay sits down with co-host of Chicks in the Office, Francesca Mariano! Francesca starts off by sharing stories from her wedding, opens up about her first year of marriage, and passes along her best tips for couples on their wedding day. She then talks through her mental health journey that began during her time at Georgetown — including what ultimately led her to leave college, start therapy, and redefine what success looked like for her. Francesca reflects on the biggest takeaways from that chapter of her life, how she landed an internship at Barstool, how Chicks in the Office came to life, and what it’s been like maintaining such a strong friendship and business partnership with her co-host Ria Ciuffo over the years. She also shares the self-care tools that keep her grounded, the advice she’d give her college-aged self, and the accomplishment she’s most proud of today.
