Mic'd and Medicated: Unfiltered, Unafraid, and UnExpert
Welcome to Mic’d and Medicated.
We’re two New York City women talking candidly about the chaos of modern life — from relationships, parenting, working in and out of the home, to what it takes to stay semi-sane in a world that expects you to hold it all together and be #blessed.
We couldn’t find an honest and vulnerable conversation — so we started one! If you need a laugh, a cry, or just want to hear someone else admit their flaws and validate your crazy, you’re in the right place. Be ready to be…
Unfiltered, Unafraid, and UnExpert.

How a Divorce Lawyer Survived Becoming a Widow with 2 Young Kids to Finding Love Again
Divorce lawyer Jill Spielberg has seen it all — and lived through more than most. She shares how many couples know before they marry, the real reason people get divorced (it’s not money or cheating), and why staying together “for the kids” isn’t always right. Jill also opens up about losing her husband, raising two kids alone, and finding love again. A raw and wise conversation about marriage, loss, and what it really takes to build a lasting partnership.
Key Takeaways:
- Why “staying together for the kids” may do more harm than good
- The real reason most couples end up divorcing — it’s not what you think
- How to model being a good person for your children
- The surprising ways Prenups can actually clarify what you want from marriage
