This episode talks about how the bustling streets of New York City compare to the laid-back life of Texas. It's been a challenge of living a dual life between two very different worlds. With my brilliant producer, Jason Belsky, by my side, we share the evolution of our creative journey, from expanding our studio space to juggling diverse projects. This episode uncovers my love-hate relationship with the grind of city life, and the surprising personal growth that comes from balancing these contrasting environments.

Ever had a neighbor who seems to test the very limits of your sanity? Jason and I recount our separate ongoing sagas with noisy neighbors, those unwelcome symphonies of urban living, and the delicate art of managing one's peace in shared spaces. We tackle the generational shift in parenting styles and how it echoes through the thin walls of apartment life. Whether it's confronting the cacophony or adjusting to the quietude of Texas nights, this colorful narrative offers a slice of the complex tapestry that is city dwelling.

Exploring topics from motherhood at 35 to the peculiar world of marathons in Crocs, this episode doesn't shy away from the unique and unexpected. I share my reflections on future life choices, the modern landscape of dating in New York, and the curious allure of "rage listening" to provocative podcasts. With humor and introspection, we dive into the dynamics of personal and professional growth, revealing the quirks and inspirations that keep us moving forward.

Lucie Beatrix has a conversation with Sofia Camacho Ferral, the non-binary marathon runner who placed first (2:31:29) in the TCS NYC Marathon. We talk about their international upbringing, relationship with food, navigating gender dysphoria, and healing from past trauma, training for their marathon, and drag performance art.

Hey guys, it's been a minute. I decided to make a diary episode about how things have been for me this year with sobriety, getting surgery, how training looks now, and my excitement surrounding getting married. Follow me on IG: https://www.instagram.com/luciebeatrix/
