Really Riley

One of my favorites "Show me the Ring" brides is back on the show 4 months after she said I DO. And here I thought I had a ton of things go wrong before my wedding but of all of the brides I've talked to, I think Olivia's journey takes the cake. From freaking out over finding the perfect wedding ring to fit her vintage engagement bauble just 6 weeks before the big day, to losing a bridesmaid, to n...

And just when we thought we were getting over the hump of all things drama when it comes to Scandovol....Rachel is suing Tom and Ariana. AND Brittany Cartwright just announced that she and Jax Taylor are separating. One of the stories I'm not surprised and one of them I'm really sad over. There are just SO MANY thoughts to be had about this so I brought in my very good #WeGotThisArmy friend Christ...

Why is it so hard for us as adults to just be selfish? Well let me backup and say that differently? why is so hard for good people to be selfish in a way that benefits them? As little kids we have absolutely no shame in asking for what we want, and saying no even when we know that our parents are going to get mad at us if we do. In this particular podcast I go into the idea of being selfish and no...

I AM SO EXCITED TO DEBUT THIS NEW FEATURE!!!!! For over 15 years I was the entertainment girl in my former radio career, and while I can't say that I miss having to be on the beat of every single celebrity hiccup, I do miss chatting about the Tea that's hot on the interwebs. Bu rather than just break it down myself, or have another podcaster or blogger do it with me, I wanted to highlight YOU. The...

Asking for what you want seems like it should be like second nature for any adult human right? From the time we are taught to speak one of the first things our parents teach us is to say what we want instead of screaming and throwing a hissy fit. Well somewhere along the line from being toddler to a somewhat jaded adult I lost the ability to ask for what I TRULY wanted, and I ended up asking for w...

I missed you guys while I was fighting the plague of a sinus infection over the weekend. I swear that sucker hit me like a freight train and nobody wants to listen to a podcast where I wheeze through it. But I promised you guys 5 Days a week of Really Riley so 5 days a week you shall have! Thank you for being patient with me and coming back to my little corner of the world. Even though its a few d...

Not much shocks me in terms of what Bravolebrities will say to get a reaction in the press these days. But Tom Sandoval's latest interview with the New York Times Magazine takes the cake for the most ignorant thing I've heard anyone say this year. And I've heard some pretty ignorant statements so that's saying a lot. The quote from the interview thats setting the internet on fire reads "I witnesse...

This weeks #AskRiley questions were such a great mix of topics that it makes me excited for you to hear this episode. It's like i always say, you gys make my job easy. Some of my favorite questions are below...ENJOY! "Advice for moms of babies under 1?" "Has your ex fiance reached out to you to threaten you to stop talking about what happened?" "How can I promote myself besides constantly posting...

If you're looking a the title of this podcast and thinking I've gone mad or someone has hacked into my podcast account, I hear ya but I promise it's not that. Lately I can feel the waves of change in my life in the BEST ways possible, but I've been seeing the numbers 666 popping up so many times that it was beginning to freak me out. Given that there is usually a negative connotation with that tri...

To be fair, I can't take credit for this date idea because it was actually my husband who came up with this winner. It was actually part of what we did on our very first date and it went on to be the thing that we did on our honeymoon, and what we tend to want to do anytime we can get some alone time together. It's the perfect pairing of shopping, conversation, and flirting that has something for...

Its been a very long time since I've gone down this section of memory lane, and my trauma with one particular relationship from my past that shaped who I am as a person today. For a long time this relationship that almost turned into a marriage (TWICE) was one that made me lose a piece of myself that I feared I would never get back. I feared for the better part of a decade that the domestic abuse...

Vanderpump rules is my guilty pleasure so when someone asked me this week if I would be talking more about it, of course was like music to my ears. In this episode I chat about the cast members of Vanderpump Rules that I think are acting a fool, the ego's that may be getting bigger than their star power, and which star may finally be showing a little bit of remorse for their role in the whole Scan...

I brought in some help from my husband marshall for this week's #AskRiley podcast because a lot of you had questions about what we are doing for Valentine's Day, and seeing as how he won't tell me whenever I asked him, I thought maybe on the podcast he would spill some more details. I also wanted to get his take on a question that came in about the Larsa Pippen/Marcus Jordan breakup. She posted so...

SHOW ME THE RING IS BACK! I've missed telling these love stories so needless to say I was excited to sit down and chat with Meghan and tell her story of how she went from searching for what she wanted in all the wrong places, to soul searching through therapy, to finding her soulmate in social media. After a lot of therapy and self work she promised herself that she would never again settle for le...

As a former single mother myself it's truly and honor to be speaking today's guest Mona Andrei, an award winning humor blogger, and author of Superwoman : A Funny and Reflective Look at Single Motherhood. She is a badass who has made it her mission to "inspire other single mothers and help them remember who they are." In this interview she speak of how she was brave enough to take on being a singl...

I'm oozing cheez factor after that line and I'm not even mad about it because I've put together the perfect last minute gift guide all from Amazon so as long as they cooperate you can have your goodies by Valentine's Day...

In no way would I ever want to take credit for the incredible Mel Robbins "Let Them Theory", but I did want to discuss how this theory has meant so much to my personal growth. Especially as of lately when so many amazing doors are bursting wide open. In today's episode I go over the parallels of Mel's theory and how it crosses over into harnessing your manifestations. It's frustrating and awe insp...

This week's round of #AskRiley questions were all across the board but I wouldn't have it any other way. Some of the juiciest questions are below.....ENJOY! "What's the hardest moment you've faced in your marriage?' "How did you feel when Natasha told Kane not to hire you?" "Where and when are your next pop-ups?" "Do you think anyone from the show listened to the tell all last week?" "Can you gave...

The title of today episode may sound a little like porn but I can assure you it's nothing of the sort. Which more power to ya if you used that find true love because I can imagine that's someone's slice of heaven. But in my case, manifesting my husband in its early stages, before I was actively practicing and even truly aware of the power of manifestation, was way more simple than I ever thought....

I finally got to talk about my thoughts on the season 11 premiere of Vanderpump Rules ( I'm late to the party I know). But some of the press forward is what got me rolling more that the actual episode. In this episode I sat down with my husband to chat about the Nick Viall podcast with Tom Sandoval and how he is officially the scariest narcissist on reality TV. Marshall gives his take on the kind...

After almost half of my adult life in media I'm no stranger to scrutiny and people coming for me behind a keyboard. But having said that, this week was on another level. Because this week it was people hitting the grief nerve and to me that warrants me breaking my cardinal rle of not feeding into the haters. So keeping with my new found "eff it era" I read some of the negative comments in this epi...

As if I wasn't already in the throws of an emotional rollercoaster this week with the Kane Tell All, my last baby is turning 3. I'm not sure what it is about he age 3 for me but with both my son's is was the saddest. And by that I mean obviously it's a joyous thing to have a healthy growing kiddo. Its just that for me 3 feels like the baby years are almost officially over. In this episode I sat do...

I have to say that grateful to somewhat move away from all of the trauma I've spoken about on the podcast the last few days. Having said that, you guys had a few more questions about that so I answered a few. And don't worry, if you loved Sarah, Natasha and myself together there will be more where that came from! But for this week's #AskRiley some of the questions I got into are below. ENJOY! "Wha...

I didn't think it was possible to go even further into the "realness" of my reality but we did it. In Part 2 of My Tell All sit down with Sarah Frazier and Natasha Elisa we dive into what I think about Karma for those that have hurt me in the past. What life was like and how desperate certain times got after losing my job, and my hopes for the future. This has been an incredibly healing experience...
