Go Deeper

If this one hit home, that's the kind of conversation we go deeper on.

Doing the Work is a weekly Patreon segment where I share what I'm actually working through — the same kind of stuff Sarah Chalke and I just got into. You're invited to do the same. Come hang.

Sarah Chalke joins us for a candid and layered conversation about stepping into Roseanne as a teenager and the emotional toll of replacing a beloved character. She reflects on the Scrubs years, the freedom of comedy, and how that chemistry shaped her career. We also get into Firefly Lane, motherhood, advocacy for her son, and what it takes to protect your identity after growing up in front of millions.
