  #242 - When Home Isn't a Place: Life, Love & Being an Artist

  Aug 14, 202626 minS2

  What does home mean when you're constantly on the move? TyNia and I have both spent YEARS touring, living out of suitcases, staying in hotels, subletting apartments and going wherever the next job took us. And apparently, if you do that long enough, you might actually forget where you live. In this episode, we're talking about how our definitions of home have changed throughout our careers and our lives. We talk about touring, Broadway, New York City, relationships, buying a home, our dream houses and why sometimes "home" has absolutely nothing to do with an address. For me, that definition has changed a LOT. Home has been Fresno. Home has been New York. And now, home can simply be wherever family is at. So whether you've lived in the same place for 65 years or you're constantly packing another suitcase... You get to define what home means to YOU.

  #241 - Why "Good Enough" Might Be Exactly What You Need

  Aug 7, 202615 minS2

  Have you ever felt overwhelmed... ...while also feeling incredibly grateful? That's exactly where I am. Motherhood has brought me more joy than I could have imagined. It's also introduced me to things I never fully understood until I experienced them myself—mom guilt, perfectionism, the loss of uninterrupted time, and the constant feeling that there just aren't enough hours in the day. In this episode, I'm sharing some of the lessons I've been learning in real time. We talk about what I wish I could tell pre-mom Salisha, why "good enough" has become one of the hardest phrases for me to embrace, and why I think following your curiosity is one of the greatest gifts you can give yourself. In this episode, you'll hear about: The three kinds of mom guilt I've experienced The advice I'd give myself before motherhood Why putting your phone down might change your life Letting go of perfection and embracing "good enough" Rediscovering joy without needing a purpose Prioritizing your mental health through every season If you've ever felt like you're carrying both joy and overwhelm at the same time... This conversation is for you. Chapters 01:07 Joy and Overwhelm Can Exist Together 01:54 The Different Types of Mom Guilt 03:41 The Advice I'd Give Pre-Mom Me 05:41 Put Your Phone Down & Follow Your Joy 06:49 What Have You Stopped Doing Just Because? 07:24 Learning to Embrace "Good Enough" 09:37 Lean Into Your Gifts 10:10 The "Good Enough" Birth Story 11:48 Prioritizing Your Mental Health 13:42 You Can Feel Joy and Overwhelm Together You can send fan mail here! @salishathomas @thesalishashow, www.thesalishashow.com Many thanks to Gotham Network in NYC, TyNia Brandon for writing and laying vocals down for the updated theme song and Big Red Studios for the intro video wherever you watch the latest season of The Salisha Show!

  #240 - I Brought My Baby on Stage Because I Had No Other Option

  Aug 5, 202611 minS2

  Let's talk MOTHERHOOD. Andrew was out of town. Our babysitter wasn't available. I had a performance that night... and Ajax had other plans. So I did what I had to do. I rolled his stroller onto the stage and hoped for the best. What happened next became one of those moments I'll never forget—not because everything went perfectly, but because it didn't. In this episode, I'm sharing what it's been like navigating motherhood, building my career, recording this show, and asking myself the same question so many of us ask: Is it actually possible to do it all? We talk about: What happened when I brought Ajax on stage with me The reality of motherhood without your usual support system Why New York has stretched me in ways I didn't expect The trade-offs we don't always talk about Learning to stay present when nothing goes according to plan Why "just do the best you can" has become my new mantra Chapters 01:38 Solo Parenting in New York City 03:26 Three Commitments and NO SITTER 05:22 I Brought My Baby on Stage 06:52 The Beautiful, Messy Lesson 07:42 Is It Actually Possible to Do It All? 08:56 When Two Priorities Both Matter 09:34 I Don't Have the Answers Yet 10:18 The Trade-Off I Had to Make 10:50 Just Do the Best You Can You can send fan mail here! @salishathomas @thesalishashow, www.thesalishashow.com Many thanks to Gotham Network in NYC, TyNia Brandon for writing and laying vocals down for the updated theme song and Big Red Studios for the intro video wherever you watch the latest season of The Salisha Show!

  #239 - The Messy Reality of Building Something New

  Jul 24, 202650 minS2

  Building something from scratch sounds exciting. And it is. But it's also messy. It's a lot of figuring things out as you go. It's asking questions no one around you has the answers to. It's making mistakes, learning from them, and deciding to keep going anyway. This week, I'm sitting down with two of my friends and now business partners, Cedric Yau and Rebecca Burton Yau, the founders of Bezier New York. What started as a simple question about why leggings don't actually fit most women has grown into something much bigger than either of us imagined. In this episode, you'll hear about: How one question turned into an entirely new business Why starting before you're "ready" might be the best decision you ever make The surprising role AI plays behind the scenes What it's really like building a company as husband and wife Why constructive feedback is one of the greatest gifts you can receive How they're rethinking the future of fashion one pair of leggings at a time If you've been sitting on an idea, waiting until everything is perfect before you begin, I hope this conversation reminds you that sometimes you just have to take the first step. Chapters 01:21 Meet Cedric & Becca 03:02 Where Bezier began 06:00 AI meets fashion 09:50 Why custom fit matters 13:05 Growing through relationships 15:07 The future of custom clothing 18:45 Starting before you're ready 20:15 Entrepreneurship as a couple 22:15 Designing the perfect fabric 24:10 Constructive feedback vs compliments 28:45 Their thoughts on AI 36:40 What success really means 40:55 Rapid-fire questions 44:35 Final encouragement BEZIER NY WEBSITE: https://bezierny.com/ You can send fan mail here! @salishathomas @thesalishashow, www.thesalishashow.com Many thanks to Gotham Network in NYC, TyNia Brandon for writing and laying vocals down for the updated theme song and Big Red Studios for the intro video wherever you watch the latest season of The Salisha Show!

  #238 - Can You Chase Your Dreams and Still Be Present?

  Jul 17, 202614 minS2

  Becoming a mom changed more than my schedule. It changed how I think about success, work, presence, and the kind of life I actually want to build. For years, I believed success meant saying yes to every opportunity. Now, I'm learning what it looks like to pursue my dreams while also being present for the people who matter most. In this episode, I'm sharing what motherhood has been teaching me, why I've been exploring new ways to build my career, and how I'm redefining freedom in this season of life. In this episode, you'll hear about: Becoming a bi-coastal mom while continuing my career as an actor The mindset shifts that came with performing throughout pregnancy Why my son Ajax has become my greatest teacher on being present The surprising lesson from people riding through Central Park Building multiple income streams and creating more freedom Why I'm excited to help build Bezier New York What success looks like in this season of motherhood The reminder that you get to make the rules for your own life Whether you're a parent, entrepreneur, artist, or simply navigating a new chapter, I hope this conversation reminds you that your dreams and your life don't have to compete with each other.
