Not everything you’re hearing is real anymore — li

Not everything you’re hearing is real anymore — literally.

This week’s Substack dives into how AI is showing up in unexpected places: podcast hosts, audiobook narrators, book reviews, political messaging. The line between what’s real and what’s generated is blurring fast.

I’m not against AI — I use it to refine my writing and improve clarity. But I am against how it’s being used to replace human voices, creativity, and connection.

And that’s exactly why I believe real podcasts — the kind with actual humans behind the mic — are more important than ever. They’re one of the few remaining formats where we can speak freely, tell honest stories, and connect without algorithms reshaping our message.

🧠 Swipe through for a few pull quotes, then head to my Substack to read the full post. It’s about more than tech — it’s about trust.

🎧 Ever wonder what really goes into recording an audiobook?

In today’s episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the process, from prep to performance, and sharing what I learned firsthand while narrating my own book, HOW TO GET ON PODCASTS.

It was one of the most fun (and exhausting!) things I’ve ever done. Major props to all the incredible narrators out there who bring our favorite books to life — your work matters. ❤️

In this episode of Booked & Unfiltered, we’re shutting down the gatekeeping once and for all. Listening to a book isn’t a shortcut—it’s reading. Period.⁠
⁠
Whether you’re team page-turner or press-play-on-a-walk, you’re still a reader. And honestly? The right narrator can bring a story to life in a whole new way.⁠

🎙️ New episode is live now. Let’s retire the audiobook shame once and for all.⁠

🚨 The tradwife trend isn’t about empowerment—it’s about control.⁠
⁠
In this episode, Jo Piazza unpacks what’s really behind the perfectly curated lives of tradwives and influencers. Spoiler: it’s not love and domestic bliss—it’s the patriarchy, dressed up in vintage aprons and aesthetic bento boxes.⁠
⁠
Her new novel EVERYONE IS LYING TO YOU dives deep into how women are being sold a fantasy that keeps them small, silent, and serving.⁠
⁠
🎙️ Listen to the full episode for a real talk on gender roles, storytelling, and why fiction can be the sharpest form of truth.⁠

I make a big deal out of birthdays. I always have, ever since my stepkids were young. They not only get to choose the cake flavor, but the design as well, and I do my best to accommodate whatever they dream up. Since my “hobby” piqued your interest, here’s the backstory and more cakes!

During the pandemic, I discovered fondant and unexpectedly found a new “hobby” when it came to making their cakes. What launched this discovery? My first major Pinterest fail (swipe through — you’ll see it!).

I wouldn’t call myself artistic, but I’m more than willing to take my time and try to create something my kids will find memorable and meaningful. No one gets to peek until it’s done…I t’s part of the tradition now.

My hope is that each cake reminds them just how loved, celebrated, and seen they are as individuals.

What’s your secret hobby?

You can be a mom and…

✨ volunteer
📚 read books
⚽️ be a soccer mom
📖 write a book
🧠 run a business
🪞take care of yourself
🎉 host book club
🌱 have quiet moments
💃 go on date nights
🤝 be a good neighbor
👯‍♀️ have girlfriends
🧁 have once-in-a-lifetime moments
🧵have hobbies
✈️ travel
📣 be an activist
👩🏻‍🍳 make dinner
🛋️ be fulfilled
🗣️ have important conversations
…and more.

I don’t believe in balance. I believe in being fully present in the moment you’re in. Sometimes that’s your work. Sometimes that’s your family. Sometimes that’s your book, a bath, a protest, or a pile of laundry.

You don’t have to choose one identity. You don’t have to shrink yourself into a box that says “this is what a good mom looks like.”

You can be both wild and grounded. Fierce and soft. Loud and nurturing.

Motherhood isn’t the end of your story…it’s just one chapter. ✨

What’s your “you can be a mom and…”?

Elle Decor recently highlighted how some podcast hosts are hiring interior designers to make their studios (aka a room in their home) feel “cozy”—think couches, candles, and curated bookshelves (with books they probably haven’t read). The thought is that the look of the recording area will translate to the vibe of the conversation…

As someone who used to record from my closet, trust me when I say it’s not the vibe of your location that makes for a great conversation…it’s the actual people.

@rebzsays was interviewed in the article and I instantly DM’d Rebecca with my thoughts! We agreed on the cliche of bookshelves filled with a rainbow of books that most likely haven’t been read along with the cozy aesthetic that more women podcasters are going for…while men continue to record from what looks like actual studios or start up offices…perfectly analogy from Rebecca!

Behind me? Every book’s been read. Many are signed. Most are connected to interviews. Some have been clients.

This isn’t a vibe. This is my work.
Cozy doesn’t create connection. Doing the homework and being in the conversation does. Reading the damn book does.
