Show Notes

I’m so excited to have my first in-person guest on the podcast! Frankie Simmons is here, and she’s literally sitting right next to me. I love Frankie’s TikTok content, and I resonate with so much of what she says. I feel like she is a younger version of me, as we have similar backgrounds and healing journeys. I hope you will join us for this conversation!

Show Highlights:

  • Get to know Frankie and our thoughts on being fellow Texans
  • How Frankie exited her background in Christianity and fear and began to explore the world
  • Why Frankie does TikToks about her functional responses to trauma and finding self-trust
  • The journey from fear and insecurity into feeling worthy and accepted
  • How Frankie experienced a mind-blowing shift in her approach to life
  • Why Frankie has chosen to be sober–and how that has changed her life and relationships
  • Frankie’s journey to understand herself as a confident introvert
  • How we can experience a different version of life when we accept ALL of ourselves
  • What things are like in Frankie’s relationship with love and acceptance
  • How it harms us to be taught that we should feel guilty if life is “easy” and not a constant struggle
  • How Frankie and KC describe their current relationship with Christianity, faith, and spirituality
