Paper Towels, Pots, Pans & Peace of Mind

The Non-Ambitious Era World Tour 2025

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038912/fan_mail/new] This week I’m talking about what it means to take a step back — from the hustle, from expectations, and maybe even from the mic. Sometimes doing less is exactly what you need to do more of what matters. What Era am I in? The Non-Ambitious Era.

Long Lost Cousins and the Hill Country

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038912/fan_mail/new] This week, I stumble into a wild twist of fate — running into my long-lost cousins, the Longs, at a bar that just happens to be owned by them… and used to be our family’s grocery store a century ago. Turns out, history really does have a funny way of circling back around. Once again let's play Six Degrees of Separation from Zada.  Find me on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/zmamacita?igsh=MXd0MndxbjM2YXd0Mw== [https://www.instagram.com/zmamacita?igsh=MXd0MndxbjM2YXd0Mw==]

Autism and the People that Google Opinions

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038912/fan_mail/new] Over the years, the medical field has played musical chairs with autism diagnoses—changing names, shifting criteria, and even folding Asperger’s into the broader spectrum. Sounds tidy on paper, but in real life? Not so much. As a mom of two kids on the spectrum, I talk about what those changes have looked like from the parent side, how confusing (and sometimes harmful) misdiagnoses can be, and why those shifting labels don’t always tell the whole story. I also in true Zada form tell the "Google Docs to get bent".   Find me on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/zmamacita?igsh=MXd0MndxbjM2YXd0Mw== [https://www.instagram.com/zmamacita?igsh=MXd0MndxbjM2YXd0Mw==]

The Missing Creamer, The Room That Wasn't Read and The Man That Can't get a Joke.

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038912/fan_mail/new] This week on Bless Your Heart I’m Talking, I’m in full ramble mode. From the ongoing creamer vs. milk epidemic in my house, to the fine art of reading the room, to folks who think they know exactly how I’m feeling (spoiler: they don’t) — nothing is off the table. It’s a little random, a little sassy, and all me.

Paper Towels, Pots, Pans & Peace of Mind

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2038912/fan_mail/new] In this episode, I’m giving thanks for the everyday things that keep me sane and slightly less feral. Paper towels? Non-negotiable—you can pry them from my cold dead hands. Artwork? Because blank walls feel like prison cells. Good pots and pans? Because I’m not about to wrestle scrambled eggs out of a dollar-store skillet. And mental health? Well, let’s just say it’s the only thing more fragile than my Tupperware lids. Join me as I laugh through the stuff I’ll never take for granted—big, small, and a little ridiculous.
