LIGHTS OUT

What happens when the decision you thought would save your life nearly ends it? In this powerful follow-up episode, I take you through the moments I flatlined on the operating table after weight loss surgery, the terrifying blackness that followed, and the chaotic blur of waking up days later in a foreign ICU — intubated, bleeding, and terrified I’d never make it home to my kids. This is the story of how I quite literally came back to life — and what it’s been like to fight my way through recovery, complications, and emotional aftermath ever since. It’s raw, it’s real, and if you’ve ever made a decision you thought was right — only to question everything after — this one’s for you. Trigger warning: This episode includes descriptions of surgery, internal bleeding, medical trauma, and emotionally intense experiences.

Before the Lights went OUT

A month ago, I died — and it changed everything. In the first episode of ‘Fuck, I'm Only in My 30s,’ I take you back to the beginning: the years of struggle with weight gain after a high-risk pregnancy, the endless attempts to reclaim my health, and the life-altering decision to undergo gastric sleeve surgery in Mexico. I’ll walk you through the hopes, the fears, and the moment I was wheeled into the operating room... when everything seemed fine—until it wasn’t. This is the story of the day my world flipped upside down. And trust me... It’s just getting started.
