Self Love, Solo Travel and Embracing the Risk of Loving Again with Gabrielle Stone

Sherry introduces her pup Mocha to the show, and Carla reminisces about the days that feral cats tore up her home. They then take a Love Fix question from a listener who is new to dating, has anxious attachment and can’t seem to console themselves. Then we met Gabrielle Stone, a familiar face in the entertainment industry, having grown up alongside the iconic scream queen, Dee Wallace. Gabrielle's childhood was steeped in the enchantment of showbiz, from playful days of faux-blood tasting to witnessing cinematic enchantment behind the scenes. Her early exposure to globetrotting with her parents fueled her wanderlust. Yet, life took a chilling turn when her father's sudden demise shattered her world at age seven. Later, a tumultuous journey unfolded as she weathered her husband's affair and sought solace in another man's arms, only to confront another heartbreak. Determined not to let life flatten her, she transformed her tribulations into a thriving career. Thus, "Eat, Pray, #FML" was born—a book that lays bare her missteps, triumphs, and the metamorphosis into a resilient trailblazer.   Connect with Us!
