Do you ever say something and then immediately wonder if you've said too much... whether it be to your friends, to your mom, or on a date? Yeah. Same. But now, I'll just be saying it to you. This is Oversharing with Erica Shea - where I talk about all the things I need to get off my chest. And hopefully, you'll feel a little less alone with each episode. Because let's face it, we've all had bad dates, done the wrong thing, had major insecurities, and have had a LOT to celebrate. So this is a judge-free zone where we're gonna celebrate it all! And I can't wait. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
