Fearlessly Authentic

Felicia, also known as 'Runi' by her family and friends, has always been the first to lend advice or a tampon, help you apply your fave nude gloss, and drop a sex tip or two. Felicia's MO was always to be your ultimate hype-girl when it came to body, beauty or sex. Felicia quit her day job as a lawyer at 28 to create Runi, an intimate wellness company, and is redefining self-care as a pursuit of pleasure, radically transforming sex lives, and tackling the taboo of sexual wellness.

This week Jodi is joined by Lisa A. Romano.

This week Jodi talks with actress Elena Goode who stars in the highly anticipated HBO Max original series "Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin" from acclaimed executive producer / writer Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa ("Riverdale" and "The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina"), now streaming on HBO Max. "Pretty Little Liars: Original Sin" begins twenty years ago, when a series of tragic events almost ripped the blue-collar town of Millwood apart. Now, in the present day, a group of disparate teen girls — a brand-new set of Little Liars — find themselves tormented by an unknown Assailant and made to pay for the secret sin their parents committed two decades ago...as well as their own. Born and raised in Harlem, NYC, bilingual speaker Goode's first big break came at just 9 years old when she was discovered by a talent agent who ultimately booked her for a pizza commercial. Growing up with parents who were both philanthropic lawyers respectively, she was taught to save her money and that education was the most important thing she could give herself. She tested into the prestigious LaGuardia Arts High School and credits this experience as changing her life as it was a very socially aware and culturally diverse school. She attended FIT for college but missed acting and auditioning so decided to get back into it which is when she booked the soap opera "As The World Turns" – something that greatly impressed her Puerto Rican mother. She went on to film 192 episodes in 2 ½ years and was part of the first gay storyline on Soap television, playing a friend's "beard" on the show (who naturally in Soap fashion turns out to also be her relative). She moved to Los Angeles and in 2015 booked the role of Nicole Young, Dr. Dre's (Corey Hawkins) wife in the Academy Award-nominated film STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON. She additionally starred as 'Ma' in the HBO Latino original film ELLIOT LOVES about Latino culture and a young boy coming out. In her free time, Goode is passionate about advocating for Ocean and Sea Life protection.

Entrepreneur Adam Lippin believes deeply in the transformative power of authentic human connection. As the founder and CEO of HearMe, Adam's on a mission to make mental health support accessible, affordable and immediate. Being a yoga and meditation practitioner for over 20 years, Adam says, "there's a transcendence that comes from being truly heard, seen, and validated by another human being. Being seen for who we really are, as a whole person, without judgment. There aren't many opportunities for this magical connection in daily life, even though we're surrounded by people who are also yearning for these things every day. So, I helped build a platform for making these connections possible whenever we need them. Before HearMe, Adam's first wellness venture began in 2016, when he founded Cuddlist with co-founder and consent expert Madelon Guinazzo. Cuddlist is an international cuddling service with over 3,000 trained cuddliest practitioners who have completed over 50,000 sessions. After the success of Cuddlist, Adam launched HearMe in 2018 with the same core value that connection is a fundamental human necessity. Starting with 50 listeners, HearMe now has over 8,000 and continues to grow and receive recognition.
