💃🏻 Erika Ramos: From LA Model and Actress to Baseball Wife, Baker, and Mom: Letting Go of What Doesn't Serve You

In this episode of In The Hype Seat, Holly sits down with Erika Ramos, former model and actress (you might recognize her from MTV's Wild n Out!), mom of two daughters, and wife of retired MLB All-star pitcher AJ Ramos. Erika and Holly have an incredibly real, authentic, and layered conversation about identity, career pivots, and what it looks like to fully walk away from something when it no longer serves you. Erika shares her story of growing up in Maryland, moving to LA at 21 to become a model, and chasing auditions, casting calls, reality show appearances, Hollywood clubs, and all the behind-the-scenes chatter about what it was like for Erika working and living in LA in the mid-2010s. Erika was part of the LA scene for over a decade, and she and Holly unpack what it looked like during that era, including early influencer campaigns, model burnout, and the subtle shifts that told Erika it was time to evolve. Now, Erika is in a completely different chapter – raising her daughters, supporting AJ through his career pivot, and building her life in a way that feels more grounded and aligned. She talks about what motherhood has taught her, why she values being present, and how she approaches each new season of life with clarity and intention. This episode is about more than career change. It’s about intuition, boundaries, reinvention, and doing what feels right – even if it means letting go of something you once loved. 🔗 CONNECT WITH US AND THE GUEST 📸 Instagram: Erika Ramos – https://www.instagram.com/erikathom [https://www.instagram.com/erikathom] Erika’s Bakehouse – https://www.instagram.com/erikas_bakehouse [https://www.instagram.com/erikas_bakehouse] Holly Meyer Lucas – https://www.instagram.com/holly.meyer.lucas [https://www.instagram.com/holly.meyer.lucas] PodPlus Studios – https://www.instagram.com/podplus.studios [https://www.instagram.com/podplus.studios] 🌐 Websites: In The Hype Seat – https://www.inthehypeseat.com [https://www.inthehypeseat.com] Holly Meyer Lucas – https://www.hollymeyerlucas.com [https://www.hollymeyerlucas.com] PodPlus Studios – https://www.podplusstudios.com [https://www.podplusstudios.com] 🎧 Listen to Part 1 now wherever you get your podcasts.
