  • ….maybe let’s not hate an entire group of people based on their profession

    I am always open to different opinions… because I truly believe the way to form your own personal opinion is by hearing all sides… so if you are going to have a VERY left thinking guest because that’s your personal belief I’m all for it… my one caveat to this guest you had is saying they hate the police… because not ALL police are evil.

Thank The Moon With Kaitlyn Bristowe
Q: Where can people find you and what's coming next after this tour?
People can follow Kaitlyn Bristowe on all platforms; her podcast is Off The Vine, with a new Amazon show coming in January; more tours and collaborations are on the horizon.
Tie-Dye, TikTok & Turning Points with Gabbie Egan
Q: How did TikTok change your finances and life?
TikTok launched her into a money-making creator path (Creator Fund), which allowed her to pay off debts and invest back into life and family, enabling their fresh start during a tough period.
Employment Law with Paige Sparks
Q: How do you handle content creation and the pushback from law firms about social media?
There can be pushback, but with careful safety and edge—disclaimers, choosing what to share, and keeping it professional—I built a platform that educates while protecting client privacy and maintaining professional boundaries.
Employment Law with Paige Sparks
Q: Did you always know you wanted to do employment law or did you pivot to it later?
I originally wanted to be a prosecutor but switched after shadowing one; I found employment law on the ground through getting fired and pursuing a different path, which led me to specialize in advising employees and employers.
Growing Through It
Q: What parts of your life do people assume they're entitled to that you're actually done sharing?
She explains that public expectations often clash with her personal boundaries, and she strives to withhold certain details about her kids' fathers and private relationships while managing public scrutiny.
