Cocktails With My Mom

In this episode, I ask my mom 20 questions about her childhood, insecurities, and all the weird family stuff we’ve somehow collected over the years. She shares stories I’ve never heard before, and we end up bouncing between serious moments and the kind of chaotic memories that make you go “wait… that actually happened?”We also get into a couple of our own stories, like a wedding blackout and a magician situation that still doesn’t make sense.Follow us!Tik Tok: cocktailswithmymomInstagram: cocktailswithmymomBusiness Inquiries: [email protected]

In this episode, I sit down with my mom to compare what life looked like in our 20s—and let’s just say, they couldn’t be more different.Her 20s were steady, simple, and structured. Mine? A mix of multiple careers, 10 different moves, evolving relationships, and what can only be described as a lot of reinvention.We talk about how life has changed across generations, why stability looked so different back then, and what it feels like trying to build a life today when everything seems constantly in motion.This one is part comedy, part real conversation, and part reflection on how two people from the same family can experience life in completely different ways at the same age.Follow us!Tik Tok: cocktailswithmymomInstagram: cocktailswithmymomBusiness Inquiries: [email protected]
