This podcast, Pack Your Suit with your Thotfit, will dive into all of the multifaceted aspects of our lives. With roundups on the Real Housewives, Health Policy news, and related workplace topics, we hope that those listening feel like they are chatting with their girlfriends over a glass of passion fruit margaritas, or their drink of choice, as we navigate personal finance, promotions, healthcare for all, and the portrayal of black, Latinx, and immigrant women (like ourselves) in media like the Real Housewives. A little bit of a lot, truthfully said.
Listen in as Lucy and Danielle recap their inaugural season of the pod, share what they have been reading/watching/listening to, talk about their personal summer plans, and discuss what's next for PYSWYTF. Thank you all for listening to and supporting this show! We can't wait to come back with more episodes, more Housewives, and more drinks!

What does it mean to be your most authentic self?
Most of us have spent a lot of time this past year alone, in the house, and reflecting. If you are like both of us, you have been able to use some of this time away from the hustle and bustle to try to ask yourself some tough questions. In this episode, Danielle and Lucy take time to explore some of these questions, including: what does it mean to be genuine? When you are alone, do you like who you are? When do you know you are being your genuine self? Danielle and Lucy both offer helpful tips and tactics for doing this work.
