TJ Lavin and I Have A Podcast: Stamina, Setbacks & Support
Monday Oct 04, 2021
Monday Oct 04, 2021
TJ Lavin, host of MTV's hit-series The Challenge, joins us on this action-packed episode of IHAP!
In forging our friendship, TJ completely disarmed me when he nonchalantly and respectfully brought attention to my sexuality in a good-humored and loving manner.
With TJ, I knew I had an ally. He treats those around him with dignity and camaraderie, which is probably why he shines as host of a show that pushes people to their physical, mental, and emotional edges.
TJ breaks the mold (and sometimes a few body parts) with his wild spirit, committed work ethic, and fun-loving personality.
In this episode of I Have A Podcast, TJ opens up about overcoming obstacles, how he landed his dream job, the ongoing work of growth and success, and how pushing yourself to your learning edge will make you MORE CREATIVE!
You will never know what you are capable of until you reach for it, just don't quit.
MUSIC IN THIS EPISODE WAS COMPOSED & CREATED BY TJ LAVIN.

Tuesday Sep 28, 2021
Tuesday Sep 28, 2021
You may know Danielle Fishel best from her role as Topanga in the hit show Boy Meets World. Her iconic hair has been making headlines since the 1990s, so it’s no surprise this multi-passionate actress would go on to create a natural hair care line, Be Free.
Danielle joins me on this episode of I Have A Podcast to share how she balances competing jobs, why it’s good to be great at things that make you happy, and how her rap skills helped her break into TV hosting. As a mother, business-owner, and actress, Danielle shares the strategies she uses to stay creative and on task...it all starts with a cup of coffee and 30-minutes of solitude.
Learn how Danielle used consumer feedback to further align her socially conscious business and in turn created a better product. She’s a woman on a mission, who is always ready to learn and has so much to give.

Mandy Moore and I Have A Podcast: Self-authority, Trust, and Asking for Help
Tuesday Sep 07, 2021
Tuesday Sep 07, 2021
Joining me on this episode of I Have a Podcast is my longtime friend, actress, singer, songwriter, production company owner, who knows what’s like to be a working mother in Hollywood, Mandy Moore!
We talk about work-life balance and how she has used many forms of media to help build her brand, claim her narrative, and empower her audience to make an impact.
Mandy shares her own challenges when it comes to making yourself small, and the journey of embarking on un-chartered territory as she broke into an industry she had no experience in at a very young and impressionable age.
Claiming your self-authority is a process. It takes trust, it takes time, and often, it takes defiance.

Happy Jack and I Have A Podcast: Youth Culture & Mental Health
Tuesday Sep 07, 2021
Tuesday Sep 07, 2021
Happy Jack was founded by Jack Nathan, as a “nod to everyone who feels trapped in their mind, and a reminder to do precisely what is important to you. Otherwise, you'll end up being normal and normal is boring."
Unfortunately, Jack left us suddenly and accidentally on July 3, 2020 at the age of 19. His passing was unrelated to mental illness. Jack was a survivor. Not a victim. He left behind a legacy of perseverance and a company that lives on through the work of this family and the community he built.
His parents, Bradi Harrison & David Nathan, have stepped in to run their son’s company, in his legacy, in his honor, and in his shadow. As a cause-driven brand on a mission, Happy Jack donates a portion of every sale to nonprofits devoted to transforming the lives of children and families struggling with mental health.
In this episode of IHAP, I connect with Jack’s parents, Bradi Harrison & David Nathan, to talk about running their retail business, mental illness, and their experiences working with college ambassadors. Learn more about Happy Jack and check out the merch and apparel at happyjacksworld.com.

SuChin shares how her experience as an Asian American woman became a central part of her storytelling and why podcasting has been a brilliant platform for her to share her strengths. She also divulges the secret to keeping her creative momentum at flow - spoiler alert - it takes discipline and structure! In this episode of firsts be among the first to listen, first to review, and first to share.
And on that note, thank you so much for your support and I hope you take something from this episode that you can put into action today!
