Mostly All Figured Out

Day 10 of testing if waking up at 5AM will change my life. 

We're officially in double digits, babies. 

Ten days into my 5AM challenge, I'm learning something surprising: waking up early isn't actually the hardest part. Going to bed on time so I don't dread it is.

In this Day 10 check-in, I'm sharing the reality behind building new habits, especially with ADHD. The excitement of starting something new is beginning to wear of...

Four days into my 5AM wake-up challenge, and I'm already noticing some surprising changes.

In this episode of Mostly All Figured Out, I'm sharing the real-life experience of waking up at 5AM as a single mom, business owner, and person with ADHD. No miracle morning claims. No "I've completely transformed my life in a week" nonsense. Just an honest look at what's working, what's hard, and why keeping promises to yourself might be more...

Hey babies, we're back!! It's been a minute. 

I'm catching you up on everything: the resting era, the panic era, and the locked-in era I'm currently living in. We're talking divorce aftermath, selling the house, a boyfriend detour, a financial wake-up call that hit like a freight train, and how sheer desperation (as per usual) is what finally got me moving. 

But the real thing I want to talk about today? What it actually me...

In this episode, I’m giving an update on where I’m at right now - two and a half months into 2026, chasing big goals, managing ADHD, running a business, and trying to level up my income as a single mom.

My word of the year is money… and let me tell you, that has forced me to look at everything - how I work, how I charge, how I think, and honestly, how much I’ve been playing small.

I share what’s actuall...

Okay. This episode? It’s one of those conversations that stays with you.

This week on Mostly All Figured Out, I’m sitting down with my incredible friend Leighton Jones - dancer, nurse, immigrant, political advocate, community builder, and one of the most fearless humans I know.

We talk about what it actually means and looks like to stop caring what people think… and why that’s way harder than Instagram makes ...

It’s 2026, babies, and you know what that means. It’s goal-setting time. In this solo episode, I’m sharing exactly how I’m planning my year, my goals (big and tiny), and what actually worked for me in 2025. From ADHD chaos to hair loss hell to realizing I’ve been emotionally held hostage by one lipstick comment since 2013 -this one’s a full-on heart-to-heart. I talk about quitting Adderall, reorg...

Hi friends! Welcome back to Mostly All Figured Out! It’s 2026, and I’m kicking off this year by choosing a theme for myself that feels big and a little scary: money. Yep. This is the year I stop playing small, stop doing free labor, and start owning the value I bring - in business, in life, in everything.

In this episode, I’m reflecting on the past few years of choosing a "word of the year" (remember freedom? gamec...

In this episode of Mostly All Figured Out, I’m sharing how working from home unexpectedly helped me create a more intentional holiday season, build an evening routine that actually stuck, and be more present with my kids during December.

I knew going into this month that I’d have the boys a lot - their dad was gone for most of December - and I didn’t want to look back and feel like I missed it while technically bei...

In this episode of Mostly All Figured Out, we are talking about the one habit that turned me from a stressy, scroll-til-midnight gremlin into a cozy, journal-writing, gym-going, calm mom. That’s right: I stopped bringing my phone to bed. And babies? I'm a changed woman.

I’ll share:

• Why I started accidentally journaling (and my realization that there is no 'right' way to do it)
• How ditching screens led me to sexy romanc...

Okay, this one? A true emotional rollercoaster.

Lizzy (my actual sister, not just in vibes - she's legally my sibling) is back on the pod, and we are talking about everything. From her journey as a teen mom, to both of us getting divorced, to dating again in our 30s and how different our experiences have been...it’s all in here.

There’s a story in here where Lizzy had to fake passing out just to get medical care. There&rs...

This episode is a mix of real talk, healing energy, and gentle chaos. I’m opening up about a big bedtime shift that’s actually helping my anxiety and sleep - no screens in bed. My phone’s across the room now, and suddenly I’m… journaling? Reflecting? Pulling tarot cards?? Who even am I. Spoiler: I like her.

But the biggest shift? Prepping for 9 days without my kids while they travel overseas with their...

I’ve officially gone screen-free after 9PM for a whole week… and it might be changing my entire life??

In this episode, I’m breaking down the surprising (and honestly wild) impact of cutting off phone time before bed - from actually cleaning my room (shocking), to finishing a sexy fairy book (that I hated?), to waking up with positive vibes like some kind of morning person.

I also talk about:

• The night I broke t...

The people voted. The people wanted me to work out every day.
And I… kindly said, “No thank you.”

This week, we’re kicking off a brand-new month and a brand-new habit: no screens after 9PM. Why? Because I want to actually succeed at this whole becoming-my-best-self thing. And if that means I have to ditch late-night Instagram doomscrolling in favor of sleep and sanity, so be it.

In this episode, I’m ...

Felicia is back, baby! And this time, we’ve got better mics and zero foils crinkling in your ear. In Part 2 of my conversation with my “hairy godmother,” Felicia Cardinale - owner of Mercury Salon and one of the most deeply intuitive humans I know - we go way beyond hair.

We talk about what it means to create safe, affirming spaces for all folx to feel seen, supported, and stylin'. Felicia shares the real (and raw)...

So… I went through a breakup last week. Which means, we need to talk about The Three-Month Rule - aka that moment in every relationship when the dopamine wears off and you may start to see the person you've been swooning over a lil differently.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the arc of my post-divorce dating, the absolutely feral things your brain does when you think you’re catching feelings, and why my therap...

This week, we’re getting real about something I know you’re doing too: living for everyone else. Whether it’s making chili on your birthday or saying yes to a project when your calendar is already screaming no, this episode is for the good girls, the independent women, and anyone who’s been caught in the exhausting cycle of people-pleasing.

In this solo episode, I’m talking:

• Where people-pleasing sho...

We’re back!!! Season 4 is officially here, and I am so freaking happy to be back behind the mic. I missed this space. I missed you. And honestly, I’m coming into this season with a whole new energy - and a whole new game plan.

In this kickoff episode, I’m reintroducing myself (hi, I’m Emily Rose 👋), and sharing the deeply personal, mostly chaotic path that got me here - from growing up the oldest of nine in ...

This week’s episode is a real treat—not just because my guest is an actual magical human, but also because it happened to be her birthday when we recorded it. 🎉 The universe has impeccable timing, and so does my friend Lauren, who introduced me to the one and only Beth Metal.

Beth is a tarot reader, animist, channeler, and all-around spiritual badass. In this episode, we dive into:

• Her journey from flower-whispering ...

This week’s episode is such a fun one, and honestly, I wish we could've kept it going because I have SO many follow-up questions. I sat down with Lindsay Robson, who you might know from Nickel City Pretty, Copper & Steel, When’s Food? podcast, the Buffalo Blogger Network… and basically every cool creative corner of Buffalo.

We talked about all of her amazing projects and how she’s managed to keep showing...
