Beverly Explains It All

36. Live Your Bucket List Now! With guest, Andrea Mangiulli.

In this episode of Beverly Explains It All, I’m sitting down with my childhood friend Andrea to talk about something so many of us struggle with — waiting to really live our lives. Andrea became a mom at 19 and spent years putting her dreams on pause. Now that her son is grown, she’s finally giving herself permission to live in the NOW… taking solo trips, checking off bucket list moments, and reconnecting with the fun, fearless version of herself she thought she’d lost along the way. We get into why so many women wait, how guilt and fear keep us stuck, and why choosing to live your bucket list today can completely shift your confidence and bring so much more joy and intention into your life. Andrea shares the moment everything clicked for her, the mindset shift that changed everything, and how one small step helped her break out of routine and rediscover who she is outside of motherhood. If you’ve ever felt behind, stuck, or like you “missed your moment,” this episode is your reminder: Life is happening NOW. You don’t need permission. You just need to start. Check Andrea out!

34. My Husband Returns! What We Learned This Summer + Holiday Reset

My husband Andre is back on the podcast, and today we’re catching up on everything that’s happened since his last visit. If you’re new here, I start with a quick intro — then we dive right into our summer recap: our Fiji trip, the family road trip, Andre’s model-making hobby, Pugsly joining the family, and what it was like for him to go back to school. We talk about the moments that made this summer unforgettable, the things we learned about each other, and the traditions we want to bring into next year… along with a few things we’ll never repeat 😂 Then we shift into holiday mindset — the emotions that come up, what feels stressful, what feels meaningful, and how we’d redesign the holidays to make them actually enjoyable. We also share what helps when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected during this season. We finish with one intentional mindset shift we each want to bring into the holidays and the new year ahead.  It’s honest, cozy, and a fun little peek into our world. I’m glad you’re here. 💛 LINKS:  Please support Pugsly! Sir Pugsly Pugsworth's IG-   / sirpugslypugsworth   Sir Pugsly Pugsworth's TIK TOK- https://www.tiktok.com/@sir.pugsly?is...

33. Holiday Stress Relief for Women: Boundaries, Gratitude & Energy Healing with Tara Wiskow

The holidays are supposed to feel magical… but let’s be real, they can also feel messy, emotional, overwhelming, and like one big, nonstop to-do list. In this episode, I’m sitting down with my friend and returning guest, the fabulous Tara Wiskow — intuitive energy healer and life reinvention expert — to help us navigate all of it with more grace, intention, and peace. Together, we dive into the real stuff women don’t always talk about out loud:  • How to slow down when everything feels urgent  • Using intuition and energy practices to stay grounded  • Navigating grief, loneliness, and big feelings during the holidays  • Setting boundaries with family (without the guilt spiral)  • Letting go of old roles, expectations, and traditions that no longer fit  • Making gift-giving meaningful instead of stressful  • Shifting into a calmer, more grateful mindset as we wrap up the year  • And one simple “gratitude over grind” move you can try today Tara also shares a little about her own journey, her work helping women break emotional patterns, and the small rituals that make a big difference this time of year. If the holidays bring up all the feelings for you — this is your grounding, cozy, breathe-deep episode.

32. I’m Back, Baby! Fiji, Family, Disney Magic & a New Life Chapter

I’m back, y’all — and so much has happened!  This year kicked off with me working on the adorable Disney show Vampirina, standing in for the hilarious Kim Coles. Then Andre and I took the trip of a lifetime to Fiji — beaches, mud pools, stunning temples, and all the island vibes. We also road-tripped up the East Coast to honor my dad’s roots, eat all the Southern comfort food, and enjoy real family time. And the biggest news? We finally got a pug! Sir Pugsly Pugsworth is the cutest little manifestation ever and somehow turned me into a pet influencer. I’m also stepping into a new chapter as a Certified Empowerment Coach, learning to set boundaries, slow down, and show up more authentically.  Get ready — holiday episodes, real talk, and inspiring guests are coming your way!
