10. Interview with Leanne Shear, founder of Uplift Studios, fitness studio/female society May 27, 2019

Show notes

Today’s guest is a dear friend of mine, Leanne Shear. I have such admiration for Leanne—she kinda seems to be awesome at whatever she does. She’s written two books, run a 3:29 marathon and, oh yeah, runs a badass fitness studio, Uplift Studios. We talk about the realities of building a business and staying strong through adversity, female empowerment, running, writing and more.

9: Return from Hiatus—My Time in Inpatient Mental Health Treatment May 03, 2019

Show notes

(Trigger warning: this episode discusses suicidal ideation/attempts.) Well, I guess that trigger warning is also kind of a spoiler, huh? I'm back from six weeks in residential treatment, and I want to explain a little bit more about what that's like for anyone who might be considering it for themselves or a loved one. I talk about why I went, what the process was like, and what I learned. (Spoiler: a whole lot!)

8: Creating with Intention (Solo Ep) Apr 03, 2019

Show notes

I have spent a lot of time offline in the past six weeks, and honestly it’s been kind of amazing, and I’m beginning to gain a clarity I’ve needed for a long time. But I've realized that I have just jumped into a lot of things in life, including this, without thinking and acting intentionally. I'm taking a little more time to think about what that means here, and I'm excited to come back with a much more thoughtful approach.

7: Marketing with Heart with Melody Spencer Mar 15, 2019

Show notes

I'm so excited about today's guest, Melody Spencer. She is a marketing consultant/Facebook ad expert/podcaster/entrepreneur. She runs her own digital marketing business called Swiftly Social and hosts a podcast called Biz Babes with Soul, where she interviews amazing female entrepreneurs. Melody also struggles with depression, and we get really real about what that's like when you're trying to live and work authentically.

6: Laughing Through Grief with Rebecca Soffer, Co-Founder/Author of Modern Loss Feb 27, 2019

Show notes

Grief can be a heavy, weighty thing; it can also be something so utterly absurd that all that's left to do is laugh about it. I interview Rebecca Soffer, co-founder/author of the site and book Modern Loss, an irreverent take on the grieving process. Rebecca is a Peabody Award winner, Columbia Journalism School graduate and former Colbert Report producer. Oh, and she's really freaking funny.

Show notes

If you work, you've *probably* dealt with some level of anxiety in your work/at work. Here's how to deal with mental health issues at work—and everything you ever wanted to know about therapy! I talked with NYC-based therapist Katherine Schafler to get the low-down on everything mental health. I really enjoyed our conversation, and I hope you will too!

3: How to turn around the vacation sads Jan 17, 2019

Show notes

Travel can be so, so good for your mental health—but it can also be really tough on it, too. I was lucky enough to just take a big trip to Spain, Morocco and Sweden, but my depression snuck into my suitcase with me. Here's what happened and how I dealt.

2: Mastering the Creative Side Hustle with Kat O'Leary Jan 02, 2019

Show notes

I have such admiration for my friend Kat O'Leary, which is why I scheduled her as my first guest! Kat works a 9-5 but has more side hustles than I can count—and more than she can remember! On this episode, Kat and I talk about everything from spirituality (including our lapsed Catholicism) to writing to running. Enjoy!

1: How I Found My Voice Dec 18, 2018

Show notes

Welcome to This May Be Oversharing. I firmly believe that the things we're afraid to talk about are the things we SHOULD be talking about, so I'm going to tackle all of that here. Mental health, grief, career, running—let's get into all of it! I'm your host, Theodora Blanchfield, and I'm a writer with bylines in Women's Health, Prevention, Bustle, Mic and Daily Burn, among others. I'm also a certified yoga teacher, personal trainer and running coach, so I have some credentials to back up some of my fitness talk. I also blog at Preppy Runner, where I've been writing since 2009 (RIP Losing Weight in the City!)
