EP 36: Jess Hilarious, Loren Lorenzo & The Work Battle You Too, May Face One Day

What Really Happened Between Jess Hilarious & Loren Lorenzo? | Navigating Ego, Support & Survival in the Spotlight

When two powerful women walk into the same professional space, are they set up to collaborate—or compete?

In this deeply vulnerable and unfiltered episode, media hosts Krystal Vega and Amanda Booth unpack the viral tension between Jess Hilarious and Loren Lorenzo on The Breakfast Club, offering a fresh, honest take that goes beyond surface-level headlines. With years of experience in television, radio, and digital media, they reveal the emotional complexity of what happens behind the scenes when women in media are expected to balance sisterhood with survival.

From postpartum struggles to the silent pain of being replaced, from checking your ego at the door to understanding the importance of identity outside of work—this episode is a necessary listen for anyone navigating high-pressure, male-dominated industries. As Krystal says,

“If one day you're supporting someone and the next day you're competing with them... it was never support in the first place.”

This conversation is filled with real-life stories, career-shaping lessons, and a message rooted in spiritual confidence: what’s for you will always be for you.

You’ll walk away with:

• The truth about maternity leave and mental health in the workplace
• The importance of multiple income streams as a creative or host
• Why genuine collaboration beats silent competition every time
• How to advocate for yourself while lifting other women up

Whether you’ve been the one overlooked, the one filling in, or the one trying to make space for both success and sisterhood, this episode speaks directly to you.

Listen now to shift your mindset and step fully into your power.
