S4 E.9 Proudest moments, getting over guys, and looking forward to 2023
In this EpisodeHello, friends! We’re back for another exciting episode of the Glow Through It podcast! This week, we’re taking a minute to reflect before the holidays – reflecting on last week’s episode, on our proudest moments of 2022, on the growth of LWP, and on the ghosts of dating’s past.
First off, thank you so much for being the best listeners! Last week’s episode was so well received, and Adriana was overwhelmed with such a beautiful outpouring of love from all of you, so thank you! We are so lucky to have you as listeners and supporters.
Next, we talked about infiltrating the enemy – aka, Getting Dropped but staying in their lives 101. After a big football game last week, Mariah saw a TikTok of a girl going up to one of the players wearing a FULL STACK of LWP. So naturally, she commented on it from her own account and from LWP, and now the team has customized bracelets on the way to them. Just when the man in question thinks that he has dropped Mariah… there she is. Broadway? There she is. Peloton? There she is. She will stay infiltrating the enemy, and honestly, that’s the way it should be. So maybe there is a bright side to getting dropped – LWP always gets a deal out of whatever profession the guy was in.
On the pregnancy front, Adriana is feeling much better! She’s 14 weeks now, the baby is the size of a jalapeno, and it’s been confirmed – she’s having another boy! As for having another baby after this one, she thinks that she has to do some sort of cleanse, because something has to be making her feel this sick, and it can’t just be the pregnancy itself. So, she’s going to cleanse, and then maybe she’ll consider having a third… but through IVF so she can get her baby girl. What’s stressing her out right now is the thought of having to come up with another great name for Baby #2 - because Ford is pretty epic.
This week we also answered some of your questions. First, we talked about our biggest regrets from our teenage years. Adriana’s is her eyebrows. She made them so incredibly thin, and for what? She still struggles with them to this day because of what she did to them when she was younger. Mariah’s biggest regret is letting Tristan Thompson go. Just kidding, but they did go to high school together! Honestly, for Mariah, she regrets always doing homework for her boyfriends… they were fully capable of doing that shit on their own!
We also talked about what we’re most proud of in 2022. The answer was the same for both – LWP’s journey! We opened a fleet of retail stores, and we had lines of customers at each opening, and we met so many of YOU! We are so grateful to have this brand and this customer base, and that was just reflected in the moments of these grand openings. To think about where we started versus where we are now is absolutely mind-blowing, and we owe it all to you. 2022 was a year of growth for LWP, and we are excited to see even more growth in 2023!
Someone else asked about our roles at LWP, and boy is that a loaded question. Adriana, as the CEO, is the approver. She speaks to the growth of the brand at a higher level, who we are, and where we’re going. She loves the creative element of the brand, including content and product design, and is heavily involved in those approval processes, as well as others throughout the brand. Mariah is more of the boots on the ground face of the brand. If there’s an event, she’s there, and if there’s a connection to be made, she’s there. She really found her stride this year in her role, and that’s also something that she is really proud of.
Now for another zinger – how to get over a guy you dated for a month. For Mariah, the answer is simple: give it another month. In heartbreak, time is really the only thing that helps and allows you to heal. You just have to take it day by day, and focus on the things that bring you joy and happiness instead of sitting in the sadness for too long.
That’s about all for this week! We also briefly talked about what we’re excited for in 2023 – for Adriana, it’s having another baby in her arms, new growth for LWP, and some exciting stuff in Miami. For Mariah… I think we all know. Maybe this will be the year that she finds a man. We’ll talk to you next year!
