The following podcast is a deer media production.

Hey, this is Alexis Haines and welcome to Recovering from Reality,

where I illuminate the messy and magical path of coming home to yourself.

Whether you're on the road to recovery, seeking self-care techniques for surviving the

capitalist machine, or just need a moment to remember that you're not alone in your loneliness,

we're serving up the ultimate truth. Your challenges don't define you, how you deal with them does.

So are you ready to recover from reality?

I told Harry Styles to his fucking face multiple times that I'm saving my butt for him,

so take that wire. Wow, yeah, to his face. And where you drunk?

Who would need it? No, so far. Sobs. And what does he say? Just laughs.

We have like, it's been an ongoing thing because my husband worked on the One Direction albums and

like knows him very well and I've met him multiple, multiple times when he was like a kid.

And then something happened. Like he turned like 19 and I was like, um, excuse me,

are you DTF? Because I sure as hell am. And then he is very well aware that I am actively trying

to say put him in. And Drew, you really gave me the pass, would you take it?

I mean, maybe.

In this week's episode, we are sitting down with Jackie Shemel. You guys have asked me for so long

to have her on the podcast and I'm so glad we are finally able to do this. If you're not listening

to the Bitch Bible, you should be. It is my favorite podcast. I talk about this all the time.

I listen to it every single Tuesday. We're also on the same podcast network, which is a great thing

and I'm super lucky. We're just shooting the shit and having fun because it's new years.

And I very appropriately titled this podcast episode new year, same us. I hope you enjoy.
