🎧 Fan Favorite Series: Deanie’s Pick

Episode: No Matter What They Say: Embrace the Power of Not Giving a Fck (Featuring Paula Sima)

Originally aired: [8/27/2024]

This week’s Fan Favorite comes from Deanie in Atlanta, who fell in love with this episode because of Paula’s energy, her honesty, and her don’t-hold-back way of reminding you to be unapologetically yourself.

Deanie said it best: people are going to think and act how they want, so you might as well live your life on your terms with a happy heart and maybe a drink or two along the way.

You’ll hear Deanie’s take first, then the full replay. I’ll wrap things up with a short reflection on why this message still lands today.
