What We’re Really Holding Onto: Excess, Safety & Function Over Applause

from Living on the Virg Podcast

What started as a practical closet redo turned into something much more reflective.In this episode, I talk about what excess really represents — why letting go can feel scary, how safety and identity quietly get tied to what we own, and why I’m choosing function over aesthetics and peace over applause in this season of life.I also share a real-life friendship conversation about expectations and presence, break down the RHOSLC reunion (Andy Cohen walking off set, fractured alliances, Mary’s unfiltered accountability, and the infamous scroll), and introduce a new recurring segment: Winos on the Virg — honest, no-hype winery rundowns from Temecula Valley.Plus, a health and wellness check-in on embracing an 80/20 lifestyle, redefining “indulgence,” and learning how to keep moving when your body is in pain.This episode isn’t about having it all figured out — it’s about noticing what’s shifting, trusting yourself more, and choosing a truer life.#LivingontheVirgPodcast#LivingOnTheVirg #MidlifeReflections #FunctionOverAesthetic #PeaceOverApplause #RHOSLC #BravoTV #TemeculaWine #WineCountryLife #WinosOnTheVirg #WellnessInRealLife #MidlifeWomenFollow up on YouTube!
