Really Riley - podcast cover

Really Riley

Riley Couture
Hey beloved! Happy to have you stop by my little corner of the world where I always like to keep it raw, honest, and real. I'm a spicy Latina girly-girl with a twist of tomboy that isn't afraid of much. Throughout my life that lack of fear has always landed me one of two places. Down the wrong road, or down the right road after taking every single wrong turn possible to get there. What can I say, I'm directionally challenged in the car and in life. But I consider it one of my greatest blessings to have done life backwards and upside down because opening up about my experiences connects me with you. I talk about everything from mini rants on mom life, to heartbreak in abusive relationships, and somehow going from tragically single to manifesting an unconventional happily ever after. Fashion, beauty, fitness, reviews, reality TV, and of course let us not forget reluctant adulting. If you're thinking about it but you don't want to say it, I'm usually talking about it. Having said all that, my mantra and the biggest message I can ever give is a simple one. #WeGotThis

S2 EP 120 : Ask Riley "Questions For A Sex Coach"

This weeks #AskRiley was one for the books! When I put it out there that I was going to have a sex coach on my show I knew you guys would come up with some spicy stuff but I didn't know it was going to go THIS FAR!

S2 EP 118 : Why You Shouldn't Hire Friends

For someone that is ALL about supporting the people closest to me in whatever their passions may be, I honestly don't think hriring freinds or working with your besties is always the best idea. Sure there are exceptions, but in my case I got burned. HARD. And with one of the people that I wouldn't have ever thought would hurt me the way they did. But, you live, learn and remain hopeful that the friends you still have won't end up the same way. ENJOY! reallyrileypodcast.com Become A Part of the #...

As per usual you guys brought the good questions for this weeks #AskRiley questions. One of these questions may or may not have stumped me a bit, but that's why I love how you guys never cease to amazing me with the stuff you come up with. Some of the questions I went into were... "Does you son Lyric still think you're cool?' "Whats a 2024 personal goal that isn't work/gym related?" "Any advice for a single mom wanting a side piece?" Like WOA!

S2 EP 116 : Lets Talk About Sex Baby

Being that my husband is a pretty reserved person outside of the people that know him best, this was a topic I'm shocked he was so willing and open about. But even in a time where it seems like talking about sex is hardly taboo, I've never in my 20 years of being a broadcaster, talked about so openly and in depth. And I actually was shocked when I asked his a question that resulted in the answer "If that happened I would think you were cheating." MIND BLOWN! Enjoy! reallyrileypodcast.com Become ...

This weeks questions were probably one of my most favorite relationship focused topics since the beginning of #AskRiley". I brought my husband Marshall to weigh in on the some of the questions you asked like ... "How can you make your significant other more emotionally intelligent?" "My depression is killing my marriage and I have liented means for self care...what can I do?" "Are there any crystals for fertility?" And those are just to name a few. I would be lying if I said some of the topics a...

S2 Ep 113 : What A Difference 13 Months Can Make

Over the weekend I did the same pop-up that I did just a few weeks after I got fired. The last time I was standing in that vendor space I was all but choking back tears wondering if anyone cared about me and my passions anymore. But this time??? Oh how very different 13 months can make you feel.

S2 EP 112 : Grateful For Things I Used To Hate

I used to never want to focus on the good in life. I almost made in my mission in the past to keep my glass half full because that was sometimes easier than hoping for the good that comes after the bad. But today, even when I don't feel like it, I try and think of the people places and things that I once despised as blessings. True story, I never thought I would see the day that I could actually say that I'm grateful for this one person. Hell has officially frozen over. ENJOY! reallyrileypodcast...

S2 EP 111 : Ask Riley : Am I Manifesting Negative Things?

This weeks #Ask Riley was one that almost benefited me even more than you in terms of advice. the question that stuck with me the most was " Riley I seem to be manifesting negative thing...how can I stop this from happening?" When I gave it some thought I realized that a few of the crappy things that have happened to me lately may have been the catalyst for me to think differently and turn my luck around with a different outlook.

S2 EP 110 : Reverse Regina George

It's sometimes hard to believe that their are real life Mean Girls lurking around professional setting that are well into their 30's. I'm no angel and I've for sure had moments that I'm not proud of, but one thing I can say is that I would never come for someone and make them feel small for trying to look their best on a job interview. Parts of me didn't even want to broach this subject and give this type of nastiness undo life, but as the T-Shirt I designed says... "I'm Nice Until I'm Not...." ...

S2 EP 109 : Should Men Know You're The One In 6 Months?

It would be a hard to me to say that I think it's silly to say that someone should be certain they want to spend the rest of their lives with you in 6 months, being that my husband put a ring on it in that exact amount of time. According to one of the RHONY newest cast member Brynn Whitfield men should be opening up the conversation of marriage in that time or its a red flag to run. I sat down with Marshall to talk about how he knew I was the one and would he have thought it was a red flag if I ...

Good ord. If I had it to do over I would never have sold my old engagement ring to purchase a brand new BMW. There's something to be said for all the materials involved with that tracsation that was the biggest purchase I had ever made in my adult life until I bought my home. And if I'm honest...fancy pricey cars aren't really my thing. Especially ones that come with the bad juju of getting into 6 accidents in the 8 years I've had the damn thing.

Odd I know but I wanted to get his take on whether or not certain flowers signal a laziness or instant "Pink Flag" in the person your considering dating. My husband is a thoughtful but simple dude when it comes to most things, but in his gift giving he always takes it to the next level with his originality. So his response was pretty interesting.

SN2 EP 104 : Things I Learned Being A Hooters Girl

It's crazy how much you can learn about people and the human experience prancing around in those tiny shorts. From not reading books by other people's covers, to weeding out the ways to ward off advances from higher ups, those days taught me so much about how to navigate being a successful woman in a male driven industry. And its sad to say that so much of what I was warned about back then, still rings VERY true today. ENJOY! reallyrileypodcast.com Become A Part of the #WeGotThisArmy Email :real...

This episode of "Show me the Ring" is especially dear to my heart because one of the fiances is a very good raio friend of mine!

Not only to I have a profession girl crush on her, I would dare to say that her proposal is a very close second to my all time favorite proposal which obviously was mine.
