Never Stop Dreaming Biggie

In Episode 82 of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm sharing the dream I've been saying no to for years: writing my book. Fresh back from Bourbon & Beyond, I open up about the signs God kept sending (the clouds, the people, the "you should write a book" comments I've heard since I was young) and why I finally signed up for Lauren Eastman's four-week writing course. I also break down the real costs...

In Episode 81 of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm coming to you straight from a hotel room in Asheville on our way to Bourbon & Beyond. It's about as real as it gets! This solo episode dives deep into something I've been seeing everywhere lately: people love to support success, but not always the journey that gets someone there. I share the story of landing my first job out of college with no e...

We're re-sharing this episode because the message is just as powerful now as it was when we first released it! Due to a recording hiccup with this week's new episode (hey, it happens!), we're bringing back one of our most meaningful conversations to date. In this episode, Brian and I pull back the curtain on The Holmestead Hideaway—our revolutionary Caribbean bar and retreat concept where 100% of...

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm introducing a brand-new segment we're calling "Brian Be Honest" — an unscripted, unfiltered Q&A with my husband Brian, where he has no idea what's coming and (mostly) no chance to edit his answers. This one's personal, playful, and a little bit vulnerable, all at once. Before we get into it, I share where things stand with the Homestead Hideaw...

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm taking you behind the bar at the Homestead OG — the original house in Park Circle, Charleston, where Brian and I are building something we've dreamed about for years. This one's personal: the bar itself was custom-built by a local carpenter after one too many rental bar bills, and it's dedicated to my dad, Ernie Passailaigue, whose Senate memorabi...

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm joined by celebrity stylist Chellie Carlson, founder of the Magnetic Style Method and the Style Society, for a conversation that's about so much more than clothes.

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm joined by my youngest son, Chase, for a fun and heartfelt conversation — his second time on the podcast, and this one couldn't have come at a better time.

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm joined by my husband Brian for our once-a-month update — and this one comes to you a little tired, a little chaotic, and completely real, straight from our new house in Charleston's Liberty Hill neighborhood. We just moved in, we're still hanging things on the walls (150+ items and counting), and between Brian working full days and me juggling thr...

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm celebrating my birthday in the best way possible — with my firstborn, Riley, joining me for his very first podcast appearance ever, after two years of asking (and two years of him saying no!). Riley is nineteen, studying computer science at UNC Asheville, and somehow both completely different from me and exactly like me in all the best ways. We ta...

In this episode of Never Stop Dreaming Biggie, I'm celebrating my birthday week (53 on Friday!) and episode 73 — my lucky number — with a guest I know God lined up perfectly: bestselling author and speaker Amberly Lago.
