Manon Mathews on Being Under the Influence, a Shocking Betrayal, and Rebuilding Your Self-Esteem

Manon Mathews is a comedian with a deep sense of knowing and a large dose of empathy. She is wise, self-realized, and extremely self-aware which is always rare, and beyond-admirable for someone who has, quite frankly, been through some hard things.  Blowing up across social media, comedian, TikTok Influencer, Podcaster and Author, Manon Mathews creates content for her 3 million followers across her social platforms. She entered the world of VINE stardom (remember Vine?), with hilarious videos that find the absurdity in everything from first dates to femininity to female celebrities. In 2020, she released a book FUNNY HOW IT WORKS OUT. She recounts moments when she had self-doubt in her career, lessons learned over the years about marriage and her career, and shares all her motivational and spiritual wisdom. Along with fellow actor and friend Jonny Carlson, Manon co-hosts the podcast Serious Butt Funny, bringing listeners laughs while also digging into some real down to earth subject matters. Manon opened up to me about her DUI and recovering from the shame and self-loathing it induced. We talked about getting sober and what that journey looked like. Manon was married once before and she let me in on the crisis that led to her divorce, trying to make the relationship work, and then ultimately having to rebuild her life and self-esteem one inch at a time. And when I tell you this story will leave you with your jaw on the floor, trust me -- it’s a doozy.  Manon was a breath of fresh air... she was open, honest, real, and a dream Tell Me About It guest who left it all on the table. I hope you feel validated and seen by something that was said in this episode. And I hope you realize you’re never alone in going through it -- whatever it may be.  For more podcast info and to continue the conversation follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jadeiovine/ Executive Producer Nick Stumpf Produced by Catherine Law Edited and Engineered by Brandon Dickert Hosted on Acast.
