Stay ConnectedLive From Bed is your official invitation to hide from the world with me and unravel out loud.
Every Wednesday, I pull my favorite people under the covers—from internet icons to actual experts—to celebrate our bad habits, vent about friendships that fizzled, plans we’re praying get canceled, and milestones we’re nowhere near.
No unsolicited advice. No forced optimism. Just the thoughts we all have but wish someone else would say first—and a whole lot of commiserating.

This week I dumped all of my friendship drama into the TMAI group chat. It seems like maintaining friendships is harder than ever, so I called for an emergency meeting to discuss the main quandaries plaguing our fragile, modern relationships…
Catherine and I dissect friendship love languages and talk about the question everyone seems to be asking: “is my friend mad at me or is it just a long-distance friendship?”
Have you ever wondered:
What do I do if I HATE my friend’s significant other?
How do I tell an acquaintance that I don't want to take the next step and become friends?
How do I know if the roles are reversed - and an acquaintance doesn’t want to be friends with me?
What do I do if my best friend's crisis is starting to take up too much of my life?
What if I’m jealous of my friend's relationship with another friend?
We also discuss the art of shit-talking, and dealing with friends who are “lumpers”.
Oh! And I buried the lead! This episode starts with my mom’s legendary “Bed Recipe” and what exactly you need to create the comfiest bed of all time.

Yes, I know, I’ve said it about other episodes in the past, sure, but I really mean it when I say this is one of my favorite episodes in Live From Bed history.
Catherine and I reaaaallllyyy went there. We talked about the politics of friendship when it comes to staying friends with someone your best friend hates. And what about when your best friend maintains a friendship with someone who betrayed you? We discussed the fragile ties that bind us to those precious few for whom we choose to press the “follow back” button. I provided three scenarios and asked Catherine my favorite question: “would you follow them back?”
We got deep into the weeds of cheating by identifying the five types of cheaters, as well as the five ways people cheat. We shared our own experiences and the (shock and awe at) our differing opinions on traditional sayings like, ‘once a cheater always a cheater’ or ‘how you get ‘em is how you lose ‘em’.
We’re dying to hear which one of us you agree with ;). And in a future part two of this episode, we’ll share our cheating stories as well as *yours* - so if you have a juicy one, DM me and you might hear it on the show…anonymously, of course, because snitches get stitches.

Question for you:
How do you react when you hear your significant other is going to a strip club? Is it harmless fun or something more? Do you feel you have a full understanding of what goes on at a strip club? Or even what the rules are if they choose to pay for a private room? Where do you draw the line?
It’s a debate that has been happening for years and yet, we as the females of the world seem to be more divided on this topic than ever…
I tell Catherine about the medium from hell, and we get deeeeeep into the scandal that has taken over all Bravo fans’ brains for the past two weeks…SCANDOVAL…
And as a wise woman once said, ‘YOU KNOW THAT IT’S OUR TIME, THESE ARE THE BEST DAYS OF OUR LIVES….’

I am officially in my introvert recoup era. After what feels like a month of talking to people nonstop, I’ve decided I only want to talk to you guys for the foreseeable future. AND YOUR GIRL HAS THINGS TO SAY.
In this episode, I vented to Catherine about oh-so-many things. We gave advice and shared our missteps when trying to leave a conversation that has expired. We dissected my belief of what a good first date looks like and which common dating experience would be my personal version of hell. We compared notes on the statute of limitations for late birthday presents, unlocked the truth behind “good sides”, and examined my crippling fear of the dark.
ALSO: this message goes out to my VPR fans and VPR fans only…we recorded this episode BEFORE the Scandoval so just know next week I will go IN on all my thoughts and feelings regarding the news that shook me to my core!!!

At long last, I’m back from my wedding weekend and honeymoon and I missed you guys palpably.
Trust me, we’ll do a whole episode on alllll the details and drama of the wedding for those who want it but, in the meantime, Catherine and I couldn't resist and decided to give you guys the spark notes version in this episode. Plus: plenty of non-wedding-related stuff that’s been on my mind…
We discussed the unexpected meltdown I had before the big day, things that really bug me about talking to people, the phonetic alphabet, and much much much more.
We’re back and better than ever and I’M SO HAPPY to vent to you guys again.

Since I’m on my mini-moon and OOO, I thought we’d revisit my and Dylan’s first episode together and what was *hopefully* the least-cringey engagement announcement we could give you. I can’t wait to be back next week and tell you guys EVERYTHING about this past week!! Xo Jade
*
After months of hearing me tell countless stories about him and letting me embarrass him on this show, we thought it was time to invite my fiancé Dylan to hang out with us this week. Dylan is my better half in nearly every way and I think you’ll agree and love him as much as I do -- well hopefully not quite that much, that’d be weird, but you know what I mean…
We go over all the details of Dylan’s proposal (in the least cringey way, as aforementioned), talk a little about our history, argue about details of every story, and you’ll get a very telling sneak peek into our relationship along the way.
And, before you all yell at me, I know I have a “talking-over-Dylan” problem. I’m working on it very hard in therapy, I swear..

My wedding was this past weekend but, last week, BEFORE I got married Catherine and I recorded this episode to EXCLUSIVELY discuss wedding disasters and planning horror stories.
Most people think weddings are all aspirational and romantic. We see perfect families, the perfect dress, the best day of people’s lives, and what we see on Pinterest BUT if you’ve ever planned a wedding, you know the truth (and the tears) that go on behind the scenes of this magical day…
Recently I complained to you guys about how the seating chart nearly made me call off my wedding and my DMs exploded. People related to my pain, big time and were almost too excited to share their worst wedding planning and day-of moments. To be honest, my heart sang because it was so relieving to know that other people agreed with me: behind the scenes, weddings aren't necessarily all sunshine and rainbows.
SO because many of you were eager to share your humbling, annoying, painful, disastrous, wedding truths I thought I'd dedicate an entire episode to the dark side of weddings hoping that we could make each other feel better and commiserate–especially when we’ve yelled at a undeserving (or very deserving!!) family member, developed a stress-rash and are ready to cancel the whole thing and elope somewhere no one can ever find us.

We all know Heather Gay as our blunt, relatable best friend (with a mysterious black eye *eye roll*) on "Real Housewives of Salt Lake City" and as the founder of Beauty Lab & Laser (with the legendary parking lot). But some of her actual friends, family and community see her as nothing but a “Bad Mormon”.
If you watch Real Housewives of Salt Lake City you know that most of Heather’s storyline for her past three seasons on the show has revolved around her experience untangling herself and beliefs from that of the Mormon Church and exposing the brutal repercussions her vocalness about her departure has had on both her personal life and relationships. Heather was born into Mormonism and has spent most of her life wrestling with a gnawing feeling that she “didn’t fit” the mold of a “good” Mormon woman. In more recent years, while simultaneously accepting a starring role on Bravo’s hit show RHOSLC, Heather has officially filed to withdraw from the church, start her life anew, and…WRITE A BOOK detailing the secrets, darkness.
With writing that is vulnerable, witty, and painfully truthful Heather details her innermost thoughts and internal tug-of-war between duty to self and duty to God. Exposing secrets she once held sacred, “Bad Mormon” is an unfiltered look at the religion that broke her heart.

*TRIGGER WARNING: SEXUAL ABUSE*
This week Cheryl Burke joined us and we both did what we do best: we overshared.
Cheryl and I discussed the whirlwind that has been the last few years of her life. Between leaving Dancing With The Stars, the show she was on for 26 seasons (!!), and navigating a public divorce, fighting her ex for custody of their dog, getting sober, maintaining her sobriety, and launching a brand new YouTube show called “Diving Deep”–Cheryl has conquered it all with grace and most importantly…with newfound peace.
Cheryl bravely walked us through her “rock bottom” and the traumas of her childhood including suffering sexual abuse from a man her parents had hired to babysit her. She explained the effect that had on her early relationships and the journey of healing she’s gone on since.
There are so many layers of this episode and I’m so grateful to Cheryl for her honesty.

We’re cooking up something different for you guys this week on TMAI. This week I decided to let my wedding-stressed brain fly free and give you one of the most random episodes this show has ever seen.
I’ve been collecting some of the greatest (and, arguably, weirdest) questions to ask people you're getting to know, meeting for the first time, or have known forever. Valentine's Day is coming up, maybe you have a couple first dates on the horizon, maybe your New Year's resolution was to make more friends and you’re looking for some ice-breakers to have on hand in case there’s one too many awkward silences? If any of these things apply to you…LOOK NO FURTHER my fellow socially anxious friends, I have a solution!
We also talk about emotional metabolisms, the best documentaries I’ve ever seen, and why I suck at starting new things.
