In this episode, Trish is joined by Angelique Loverso for an unfiltered chat about all things real life and real love. From being backed by good men who fuel their fire, to the unspoken “deathbed race to the end” pact (yep, they plan to outlive everyone), this one’s full of wisdom and wit. They dive into raising brave kids, riding the wild waves of developmental leaps, and the magic of being surrounded by people who believe in your dreams—whether that be in your Sunday finest or your comfy trackies.

It's deep. It's funny. It’s a big hug for your ears. Tune in and feel seen.

He’s back—mic in hand and heart wide open. In part two of Mick Marshall’s story, we go deep. Like late-night-over-chips kind of deep.

We’re talking:
🖤 The dark days (yep, the real gritty stuff)
🛌 The mornings he couldn’t get out of bed
🔥 And the fire that finally gave him his “why”

Mick shares what kept him going when everything said “quit,” and spoiler: it’s not caffeine or clichés. It’s real, raw, and ridiculously inspiring.

So if you’ve ever hit a wall, wanted to give up, or just need proof that rock bottom can still bounce—you need this ep.

Have you ever met someone and immediately thought: I want in on what they’re about? That’s exactly what happened when I met Mick Marshall —a powerhouse advocate for invisible disability, lived experience, and showing up as your whole damn self. In Part One of this raw and incredulous ride, Mick opens up about living with an invisible disability, learning to navigate systems that weren’t built for brains like his, and what happens when you start believing your own story (instead of the one society hands you).
