    • The Drive, The Storm, The Crash Out.
      Jan 27 2026

      Love to hear from you! Text me!

      This episode starts with an apology.
      Not the dramatic kind. The honest kind.

      In this episode of This Isn’t That, I’m breaking the silence and telling the truth about where I’ve been, why I went quiet, and what it means to take responsibility without self-shaming. From resetting expectations to showing up imperfectly, this is a real-time reset, not a polished comeback.

      I’m also sharing a deeply personal story about driving eleven hours from South Carolina to Michigan in the middle of winter to see my kids while navigating the emotional weight of separation, custody battles, and the ache that never quite leaves a mother’s body. What started as a clear, peaceful drive turned into a snow-covered reminder that healing, motherhood, and rebuilding don’t follow straight lines.

      This episode is about breakdowns in gas station parking lots.
      About doing hard things scared.
      About asking for help without meaning to.
      About realizing that slow progress still counts.

      If you’ve been carrying a lot quietly, feeling behind, or trying to keep moving through conditions that feel unfair, this conversation is for you. You’re not failing. You’re navigating. And sometimes staying on the road is the bravest thing you can do.

      We’re resetting.
      We’re showing up honestly.
      And we’re moving forward, slow and steady.

      This isn’t that.

    • Same Life, New Boundaries
      Jan 3 2026

      Love to hear from you! Text me!

      The calendar flipped, but you don’t need to. We’re pushing back on the “new year, new me” pressure and choosing a gentler, more honest shift: same life, new boundaries. Instead of chasing a total reboot, we’re focusing on small, repeatable choices that protect energy, reduce guilt, and make room for the kind of growth that actually lasts.

      We unpack why January hype so often backfires, and how quiet, consistent actions outpace dramatic announcements. You’ll hear practical ways to do less but do it better: shorter replies without long explanations, scheduled rest treated like a real commitment, and simple scripts that help you say no under pressure. We talk through the moment you realize you’re pouring into spaces that don’t pour back, and how to step away with clarity rather than resentment.

      There’s also a honest look at pushback: some people prefer you without boundaries. We name that reality, and offer a mindset shift for staying steady when others say you’ve changed. Choosing peace over people pleasing doesn’t make you cold; it makes you clear. That clarity helps the right relationships grow stronger while freeing you from constant performance and accessibility. If you’ve been craving a softer pace, fewer drains, and a year that feels intentional instead of urgent, this conversation gives you language, tools, and permission to protect what matters most.

      If this lands, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs a boundary boost, and leave a quick review with one boundary you’re setting this year. Your small choices can change everything—what’s the one limit you’ll keep?

    • Edge Control & Emotional Damage: Dating While Healing
      Aug 5 2025

      Love to hear from you! Text me!

      In this raw and ridiculously real episode, Alyssa B. takes us behind the bathroom door-arms sore mid-retwist, Apple Music on shuffle, and a full-on breakdown brewing in the mirror. From the tangled mess of healing while in a relationship to flashbacks of Rashad-level nonsense, she packs what it means to date when your heart's still under renovation. With humor, honesty, and a little self-love sermon-this is your reminder that healing is not liner-but your edges still deserve to be laid.
