Let's Talk, Honey

2020 really tried her, but she’s emerging victorious…or at least with some cool battle scars. Valeri reflects on the sh*t-show that was and is 2020, and shares some insight on what she’s learned, and what she’s surprisingly grateful for.

Hello friends! We are alive and well over here. Just checking in to let you know that every little thing is gonna be alright, and we will get through this. More episodes are coming soon and will feature some special social distancing guests of ours. In the meantime, stay safe, stay home and listen to  podcasts..at least this one. 

Val talks with new guest Nick Horn about  his journey to coming out. The two also chat about the  meaning of free love, banning sexual labels and why society needs to practice better critical thinking.

Val and sister duo, Olivia Romero and Theodora Stolarski, tap into the meaning of sisterhood - the unrelenting support, occasional competitiveness, male vs. female friendships and what it truly means to support for your fellow woman. Plus the three play a cackle-inducing game of “Who’s Most Likely,” sibling edition.

With a heavy heart, Val dedicates Episode 8 (ironically) to Kobe Bryant, and how the star Laker transcended basketball to change the world. For her first solo episode, Val talks about and the many complicated emotions that accompany loss, both spiritually and physically, what we love most about the Black Mamba and she digs deep to truly answer “What Would Kobe Do.” Kobe Bryant this is for you - Mamba Forever

Val sits down with guests Chelsea Dejno and Tessa Horn, two well-established women working in the San Fransisco tech industry. Listen as the three share their professional ups, downs and slightly sexist experiences, but somehow mange to find the silver lining through it all. Plus, a mouth-numbing game of “Hot Ones" Honey edition, to help lighten the mood.  

Val and guest Meg Mangels are not your traditional brides. They didn’t grow up planning their dream weddings, but they both found true love and decided to plan weddings with the men they love, for better or for worse. Listen as the two compare wedding war stories, from awkward moments to moments that made them ugly cry for days, plus a wedding-themed version of "Would You Rather". 

Val and returning guest Erin Walsh spread some much-needed love during this holiday season, discussing everything from minding your own spiritual business, enlightening moments at Whole Foods, understanding the light and dark sides of life and more.

Val chats with Kelly Wang Shanahan, creative director and founder of sustainable silk clothing brand, "Ziran," about everything from female entrepreneurship, finding and owning your flow, growing up in the South Bay, and the two play a revealing game of "Pick One, Honey."
