I'm F*cking Doing This

📍 Start here — this is Episode 1. Daddy Tissues is told in order. 🎬 Watch this episode on YouTube → https://youtu.be/70zBcBjeeQg I'm doing this. I am fucking doing this. I just got divorced, turned 40, I have three kids, a lifetime of trauma, and a microphone I barely know how to use. I literally just learned how to post an Instagram story. I am completely unqualified — and somehow I know I'm the most qualified person on earth to do this show. This is the first episode. It's about why: the lump in your throat when someone asks what's wrong. The husband fight that ends with you crying in a Target parking lot. Holding it together while someone gaslights you — and then getting called crazy the second you finally explode. The supermom on Instagram who secretly wants a week alone in a hospital. Twenty years as a hairstylist doing therapy with foils in women's heads. And the day 40 hit me like a smack in the face and I realized I had all the stuff — the degree, the wedding, the jawline, the trampoline — and had never once asked myself if I was okay. To everyone who knows me and is currently having a panic attack: yes, Gina has a microphone. Everyone remain calm. I'm not here for revenge. I'm here for the truth — the kind that hurts coming out and then finally lets you breathe. Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤 ⚠️ Contains strong language and discussion of divorce, mental health, and family trauma. 📖 Daddy Tissues is a true story told in order. Start at the beginning.

I'm doing this. I am fucking doing this.

I just got divorced, turned 40, I have three kids, a lifetime of trauma, and a microphone I barely know how to use. I literally just learned how to post an Instagram story. I am completely unqualified — and somehow I know I'm the most qualified person on earth to do this show.

This is the first episode. It's about why: the lump in your throat when someone asks what's wrong. The husband fight that ends with you crying in a Target parking lot. Holding it together while someone gaslights you — and then getting called crazy the second you finally explode. The supermom on Instagram who secretly wants a week alone in a hospital. Twenty years as a hairstylist doing therapy with foils in women's heads. And the day 40 hit me like a smack in the face and I realized I had all the stuff — the degree, the wedding, the jawline, the trampoline — and had never once asked myself if I was okay.

To everyone who knows me and is currently having a panic attack: yes, Gina has a microphone. Everyone remain calm. I'm not here for revenge. I'm here for the truth — the kind that hurts coming out and then finally lets you breathe.

Grab your daddy tissues. Till next time, my queens. 🖤
