This still doesn’t feel real. 🍋 This book lived in me years before it had a title, a publisher, or a place in the world. I’m deeply honored to be partnering with Regalo Press (@regalo_press ), an imprint of Post Hill Press, distributed by Simon & Schuster.  A heartfelt thank you to my agent, Jennifer Garbowski (@jenniegbean ) at the @kruppagency , and Heidi Krupp (@heidikrupppr ), for finding the perfect home for this book. To my editor, Adriana Senior (@seascreative ),  shaping these pages with you is a dream. I’m incredibly proud of the work we’re doing together. To Glenn and Mindy Stearns, thank you for believing in this book and for introducing me to Laura Morton. Laura, your guidance and generosity opened doors I’ll forever be grateful for. Thank you! @glennstearns @mindystearns @lmortongac Thank you to my attorney, Richard Rey (@reyucla ), for being a steady, trusted guide through this journey. And to my family, friends, and fiancé who refused to let me quit when this felt impossible, thank you for carrying me on the hardest days. To the future reader of this book: Every honest, heartfelt, and unhinged story shared is for you. Because we deserve to live a life with all the f*cking feels. 🍋 So much gratitude to everyone who helped bring this dream to life. 💛 #publishersmarketplace #bookdeal #author #womensempowerment #selflove❤️

🌟 Celebrating 20 Years as a Producer! 🌟 From a small-town girl to producing thousands of stories and over 50 shows—I can truly say it’s been an incredible journey! 🙏 ✨This career has taken me to over 28 countries, nurtured lifelong friendships, love, endless magical moments and memories, and sparked confidence, creativity, adventure, and growth. It’s allowed me to learn from the best in business, leadership, and storytelling. It’s taught me how to operate on three hours of sleep and overflowing amounts of cortisol. 🤷‍♀️ Big thanks to my lifers, life coaches, therapy, and botox for supporting me through all the ups and downs. No, seriously, I’ve loved it and am forever grateful for this ride. 🙏 What’s next? I’m not sure, but I’ll definitely be producing it, along with my first book about my wild ride in this industry and so much more—stay tuned for that binge-worthy read!😃 Here’s to balancing our roots and wings perfectly. 🪽 May we all be blessed to do what our hearts love. 🎥 📚❤️ ✨ #tvproducer #producerlife #producer #milestone #celebration #lifeproducer #coach #creatives #artist #story #spreadlove

In honor of #worldkindnessday I am excited to announce that I’m producing my first feature length documentary about Kindness. The stories are powerful, uplifting, ignite action, change perspectives and bring forth a new level of individual awareness. I can’t wait to share more but for now here are some behind the scenes pics from our interview with His Holiness the Dalai Lama. Shout out to our fearless leader, creator and talented director @stevensawalich . I am so honored to be on this ride with you and our team!

Call it reckless. I call it finally choosing yourself. You’ve wasted enough years second-guessing. That chapter’s closed. Take the shot! This is your sign to stop acting like you have unlimited seasons left. #ismyvaginaalemon #liveyourlife❤️

Yes, there’s sex in the book. 😊 But if you’re wondering if Is My Vagina a Lemon? is a technical how-to guide on orgasms… she is not. ❌ Yes, my inabilities were the giant, flashing lemon that got my attention, and trust we go there in a major O-M-G way… but what I discovered was that I wasn’t dealing with one lemon. I was dealing with a whole damn tree. Disconnection. Numbness. Old stories. Performance. People-pleasing. Addiction. Faking it in the worst way. A woman who had mastered producing everyone else’s reality while quietly abandoning her own. So yes, there’s sex. But this book is really about feeling. Feeling your life. Feeling your truth. Feeling your desires. Feeling yourself again. (Pun intended) Because sometimes the thing we think is the problem… is actually the invitation. 🍋 Not on the waitlist for this banger? DM me LEMON, and I’ll handle it. Xo #ismyvaginaalemon #authorlife #series

Keep going! Small consistent steps. You will get there. That’s exactly how I attacked this bowl of gnocchi. lol #onedayatatime❤️

What if the most sour experiences of your life weren’t proof that something was wrong with you… but proof that something was trying to wake you up? 🍋 I’ve learned that our lemons often hold the sweetest endings. The lesson, the redirection, the invitation, the hidden magic we couldn’t see while we were busy calling it a disaster. Your hardest moments are not your defect or downfall. Embrace the lemons, babe. They’re the secret to your most orgasmic life. ✨ #ismyvaginaalemon #authorsofinsta

The next chapter can feel terrifying, or we can choose to let it feel divinely guided. We can dig our heels into the ground and resist our own metamorphosis, or we can decide to trust the process. I used to fight every big change until I realized that on the other side of surrender was a life far more magical than anything I could have seen from the vantage point of my old self. This is your reminder to keep trusting the process of your own evolution. #authorlife

There are so many moments in this book that I debated including because they are epically embarrassing, incredibly raw, and deeply vulnerable. But ultimately, I decided that if I was going to do this, I was going all in. So the stories are here to stay. I cannot wait for you to read them. You’re probably going to judge me so hard 😆 but more importantly, I hope they make you laugh, make you feel seen, and maybe even help you feel a little less alone on your own journey to feeling yourself in every way. I cannot wait to dive into all the details with you. If you’re not on the waitlist for the book, comment LEMON and get on it now. I promise… the cover reveal is coming very, very soon. 🍋 #ismyvaginaalemon #authorlife

In honor of Mother’s Day, I had to share this throwback. 💛 If you’ve had the pleasure of meeting my mom and really knowing her, then you understand exactly where my hustle, determination, get-it-done, do-it-now, give-it-your-all, adventurous spirit comes from. My mom and I are birthday twins, and every year it’s something new… but this year, I have a feeling, will be the most epic yet. 😉 Happy Mother’s Day weekend, Mom! Love you xo #motherdaughterlove #mothersday

Trust me, life has a funny way of forcing your attention to things when you’ve ignored the whispers for too long. For me, it came out of left field. I thought I was dealing with one intimate issue. Spoiler: I was dealing with a whole lot more. 👀🤦🏼‍♀️ The opening of this book is not like anything you could ever imagine…. Comment BOOK to make sure you’re on the waitlist to get it first. 🍋 #ismyvaginaalemon #authorlife

I double dog dare you to ask yourself THE question! The question you’re avoiding is usually the one that changes everything. The messy one. The uncomfortable one. The one you try to clean up before you say it out loud. Especially the ones you don’t wanna know the answer to. That’s where the shift happens. ✨ Take it from me…. I didn’t want the answer to “Is my vagina a lemon?— so I avoided it for decades and wasted so much time. So what is a question you know you need ask yourself? 👇 #authorlife
