Why I Started Studying Astrology | The Search for a Bigger Picture | UnPolished with Geneva S2 E1
Welcome to Season 2 of UnPolished with Geneva!
This season is different.
Over the last few years, I've found myself asking bigger questions about life, timing, purpose, grief, relationships, and why certain seasons seem so much harder than others.
That search eventually led me to astrology—but not in the way most people think.
This episode isn't about convincing anyone what to believe. It isn't about fortune telling or daily horoscopes. It's about sharing my personal journey, why I became fascinated with astrology, and how it helped me begin connecting the dots in my own life.
Whether you agree with my perspective or not, my hope is that this conversation encourages you to become curious, ask better questions, and look at your own life through a different lens.
This podcast isn't about having all the answers.It's about exploring the questions.
Welcome to UnPolished with Geneva—where we have bold conversations about astrology, spirituality, self-discovery, timing, personal growth, and finding meaning in life's biggest moments.
Life leaves clues... let's connect the dots together.

I’m Not Your Guru, Sis | Trust Yourself, Not TikTok Prophets
Episode 12: I’m Not Your Guru, Sis | Trust Yourself, Not TikTok Prophets
In this episode of Unpolished with Geneva McClain, I set the record straight—I’m not your guru, sis. I’m not your life coach, therapist, or TikTok prophet. What I am is your real talk reminder that you already have the answers inside you.
From exposing “expert culture” and false leaders to reminding you to trust your own voice, I’m breaking down the lies we’ve been sold about healing, growth, and guidance. No blueprints, no $997 masterclasses—just raw truth, sass, and a whole lotta love.
This isn’t about pedestals. It’s about power. Your power.

GLP-1, Celebs & Quick Fixes: What They Don’t Tell You About Weight Loss
This week, Geneva goes LIVE with a special guest — Chad (the hubby) — for a raw, unfiltered conversation about weight loss, quick fixes, and real results.
Celebrities are pushing GLP-1 shots like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Mounjaro as the new “miracle” solution. But what’s the cost? Are we trading long-term health for a quick drop on the scale?
Chad has lived the weight struggle. At his heaviest, he hit 350 lbs. After years of diets and false starts, he finally cracked the code for himself — losing nearly 100 pounds without medication, injections, or shortcuts. Now, at 260 lbs, he’s sharing the truth about what actually worked, how he changed his relationship with food, and why people are turning to him for advice instead of the needle.
This is the story that might make you pause before you run to the shot.
