Thank you so much for dropping by each week and for listening to all the incredible stories that the powerful women have shared this season!

    If you haven’t yet listened to Part 1 of Addison’s episode, go back one episode!

    Addison shares how life, work, and motherhood pushed her into a season of rediscovering who she was and how a meaningful return to Japan sparked her journey as a writer.

    Nov 14 2025

    Send Maggie a Message!

    Welcome to Season 2 of UnFILLtered: Hygge for the Holidays! This season, Maggie dives deep into the Danish concept of hygge—a way of creating comfort, connection, and simple joy—while navigating the emotional challenges of the holidays after divorce. Through the lens of her experience as a single mom and divorcee, she explores all ten hygge principles, sharing two in each episode to help bring more peace and presence to a season that can feel overwhelming.

    In this first episode, Maggie unpacks the hygge principles of togetherness and equality, showing how they can soften holiday stress, ease co-parenting conflict, and transform feelings of grief or loss into meaningful moments of connection. She discusses redefining holiday traditions, releasing the pressure of celebrating on exact dates, and letting go of comparison when children move between homes—important mindset shifts for anyone navigating shared custody, blended families, or holiday grief.

    Maggie also opens up about the first Christmas she ever missed with her kids, a pivotal moment that reshaped the way she approaches the holidays. Her story offers a compassionate look at rebuilding peace, healing after separation, and creating new forms of holiday joy even in difficult seasons.

    Filled with honesty, emotional insight, and practical reflection, this episode is a grounding guide for embracing hygge during the holidays. Whether you're managing co-parenting schedules, moving through loss, or simply craving more calm and connection, Maggie’s journey is a reminder that togetherness can happen on any day—and contentment is possible, even in life’s most complicated chapters.

  • 08: Growing Up Between Cultures | A Journey of Identity and Self-Discovery with Angie Robinson Part 1
    Nov 12 2025

    Send Maggie a Message!

    In this episode of The Tox Drop, Maggie sits down with her longtime friend and Director of Operations at Rejuvalase, Angie Robinson, to unpack a beautiful and deeply personal story of identity, culture, and self-discovery.

    Born in Manhattan and raised between the Bronx and Spanish Harlem, Angie opens up about her childhood split between two homes, her close-knit family, and the vivid memories that defined her early years.

    But her story takes a turn when her family moves to Miami, where Angie experiences a new culture, language barriers, and a slower pace of life that felt worlds apart from her New York upbringing. As a Puerto Rican and Cuban woman who didn’t grow up speaking Spanish, Angie shares how she reconnected with her roots by learning the language through love, navigating new cultural expectations, and embracing her bicultural identity with pride.

    Filled with nostalgia, laughter, and lessons on growth, this episode is a heartwarming reminder that where you come from shapes you—but it doesn’t define who you become. This episode is just part 1 of Angie’s story, be sure to stay tuned for next week when we continue the conversation in part 2! In the meantime, grab your favorite beverage and enjoy getting to know the beauty that is, Angie Robinson!

    This week, we’re back with part two of Nikki’s powerful story of turning struggle into strength. Maggie and Nikki pick up right where they left off, diving deeper into her journey of resilience, self-discovery, and reclaiming confidence after life’s biggest curveballs. Nikki, a military veteran, “Naked and Afraid” survivalist, and soon-to-be dermatologist, opens up about life after the army, navigating a multiple sclerosis diagnosis, and rebuilding her identity beyond the uniform.

    During this conversation, they explore the emotional impact of social media, the pressure of online hate, and how Nikki learned to “armor up” while still allowing herself to soften. She shares how humor became her healing tool, how she redefined beauty after illness and criticism, and why true strength means embracing both grit and grace.

    If you haven’t listened to part one yet, be sure to go back and hear Nikki’s incredible origin story; how she grew up, what led her to join the U.S. Army, and what it was really like surviving Discovery Channel’s Naked and Afraid. It sets the stage for everything you’ll hear in this inspiring conclusion.

    This episode is a raw, real look at what it means to stand tall in a world that tries to tear you down and a reminder that beauty, worth, and resilience are more than skin-deep. Press play and enjoy the rest of this conversation with Nikki.
