Episode 120: Threading, Toxic Divorce, and the Moment the Truth Finally Breaks

There are episodes of Party’s Over that educate, episodes that entertain — and then there are episodes that do both while ripping the curtain completely down.

This one is the latter.

We begin with something many of you have asked me about: threading — those tiny, dissolvable sutures that lift, sculpt, and stimulate collagen without making you look puffy, overfilled, or unlike yourself. And then… we pivot. Hard. Into a story I never imagined I’d be telling publicly — a night that exposed betrayal, manipulation, and the slow burn of a toxic marriage coming undone in real time.

Because life doesn’t separate beauty from heartbreak. And neither do I.

Threading: Lifting Without Losing Yourself

I’m joined by beauty expert Denise Santo, someone I trust deeply, to break down PDO threading — what it actually is, how it works, and who it’s right for.

Threads are made from the same material used in dissolvable surgical sutures. When placed strategically under the skin, they do two things:

  1. Create lift in areas where skin has started to sag
  2. Stimulate your own collagen, so results continue even after the thread dissolves

What I love most? Threads don’t inflate your face. They don’t change your identity. They don’t erase you — they refine you.

We talk about:

  • Smooth threads vs. lifting threads
  • Why placement matters more than quantity
  • Why “more” is not better
  • And why threads can be incredible for the face and body — neck, jowls, arms, stomach, knees, even subtle brow and eye lifts

I also share my own experience — what it feels like, what actually hurts (spoiler: the numbing, not the threads), and why I’m such a believer when it’s done correctly.

Threads aren’t about chasing youth. They’re about looking like yourself on a really good day.

When a Casual Night Out Becomes a Reckoning

Then the episode takes a turn.

My close friend Erica joins me to recount one of the most destabilizing nights of my life — a night that began with dinner plans and ended with a shocking discovery that unraveled years of lies.

What followed was:

  • A chance encounter
  • A moment of undeniable truth
  • And the realization that manipulation, secrecy, and narcissism don’t disappear just because you want peace

We walk through the details — not for drama, but for clarity. Because so many women listening have lived some version of this story. You question your instincts. You second-guess your reality. You try to be “understanding.” You stay longer than you should.

Until the truth forces itself into the light.

This conversation isn’t about revenge. It’s about recognition. About naming toxic patterns. About understanding that sometimes the party doesn’t quietly end — it explodes.

Spill It: Should You Confess a Past Affair?

In our Spill It segment, we tackle a listener question that sparks real debate:
If you had an affair years ago, your relationship is now stable — do you tell the truth, or protect the peace?

Erica and I don’t agree — and that’s intentional.

We talk honesty, guilt, timing, emotional responsibility, and whether confession is about healing… or easing your own conscience. There’s no one-size-fits-all answer — but there is value in asking the hard questions before making a move you can’t undo.

Why I Shared This

I created Party’s Over to talk about the things women whisper about — beauty, betrayal, reinvention, desire, mistakes, and power. Episode 120 holds all of that.

Because growth isn’t neat. Healing isn’t linear. And sometimes the most important transformation starts the moment you stop pretending everything is fine.

If this episode resonated with you, I hope you’ll listen, subscribe, and share Party’s Over with someone who needs to hear it. And if you want to go deeper into these conversations, my book From BS to Botox is where it all began.

The party’s over — and that’s where your power starts.
