When Laura Friedman Williams’ 22-year marriage came crashing down, she was terrified of what the future might hold. Little did she know, the next year of her life would be filled with more men, more sex and more satisfaction than she’d experienced in the previous three decades.

We're Taking the Week Off!

We don’t know who needs to hear this, but nobody has their shit together 100 percent of the time — nobody. You can be excelling in one part of your life while another area is imploding. Those two states of being co-exist all the time, for everyone. Life is messy like that. And it's okay. What's not okay? Acting like you have it under control when you’re in a shame spiral. That’s where we come in. Messy Situations empowers people to bravely reveal the unfiltered parts of their lives without fear of judgement.

Every week we'll reveal Messy Situations —big and small— submitted anonymously and shared by in-person guests, and then call in our Clean-Up Crew of wellness experts, mental-health pros, spiritual guides, energy healers, messy-life survivors and more to start mopping things up. We invite anyone who is willing to confess their own mess — even science says it’s good for the soul.
