  • Summary

  • Welcome to Brutally Anna, a podcast about finding love, losing love, and all the things we think about a lot, but don’t talk about enough. I’m your host, Anna Kai aka @maybeboth across social media, here to remind you that life can be beautiful, even when it’s freaking brutal. On this brand new podcast, I’m joined by some of your favorite creators and experts on how they navigate dating, how to stay hopeful when you’ve kissed one-too-many frogs or Chads, and most importantly, how to love yourself when you haven’t yet found someone else to love you. Each week, we tackle everything from dating after divorce, how to ask for what you want from a relationship, and what death can teach us about love and life. If you’ve ever wondered how to begin again when life as you know it has ended, this podcast is here to remind you that the best thing to come out of rejection is often our reinvention. Join me on Mondays as I sit down and get you the brutal truth so that you can find your truth. Don’t forget to follow me @maybeboth across social media and subscribe to Brutally Anna wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Tough times are temporary and the power of female friendships with Taryn Delanie Smith

    Tough times are temporary and the power of female friendships with Taryn Delanie Smith
    Jan 13 2025
    Former Miss New York, social media star and TV host Taryn Delanie Smith’s life could’ve gone in a very different direction if it wasn’t for the power of her single mother and the community of women who raised her. Keywords: dating, society, culture, relationships, love lessons, dating advice, toxic relationships, overcoming failure, date yourself, being behind, love and money, marriage advice On this week’s episode, we unpack the ways in which Taryn’s life worked out exactly the way it was supposed to, even when it wasn’t going according to her plans. From her days as an aspiring U.N. diplomat to competing in Miss America, Taryn unpacks all the reasons why it took her eight years of dating before marrying her husband and why she thinks that sometimes, the best advice to take is your own. For anyone who has ever wondered when their life is going to begin, my conversation with Taryn shows us all that sometimes, the best things in life happen to us while we’re waiting to start living.

  • Solo Episode: When he loves you, but can't be with you, and why you should gaslight yourself

    Solo Episode: When he loves you, but can't be with you, and why you should gaslight yourself
    Jan 9 2025
    Don't do as Bernie Madoff did (ie. commit history's largest Ponzi scheme), but you can learn from why he was able to do what he did. This week, I'm discussing why sometimes, gaslighting yourself into believing you're capable of something well before you actually do it can be a self-fulfilling prophecy that snowballs into others believing in you, too. If you've ever written yourself off, tune into this episode and hear the stories that inspired me to create possibility where I once found impossibility. I answer your voicemails on why you're still feeling heartbroken after a breakup even when the rest of your life is getting better, and what to do when he says he still loves you, but just can't be with you.
