Life coach Mike Bayer, author of the New York Times bestseller “Best Self: Be You, Only Better,” sat down with guest Jessica Simpson for the launch of The Coach Mike Podcast, from Stage 29 Podcast Productions. 

During the inaugural episode, Simpson opens up to Bayer about overcoming divorce, addressing sexual abuse she experienced as a child and her journey to sobriety. “I was attracted to saving people,” says SImpson. “I was attracted to people who needed light and they were dark and all they needed was some faith and some understanding of how to be happy, and I thought I could bring that into a relationship. But I realized we could only do that for ourselves. It took me a long time to realize it and it took me a lot of heartbreak.”  

“My mission is to help people find the freedom to be their best selves and this Podcast gives me a new and exciting opportunity to connect with anyone looking to create a better life,” said Bayer.  “I am honored that Jessica agreed to be my first guest on this series as her exclusive podcast interview. She possesses such an authentic and influential voice and I know her story will capture and inspire listeners wherever they are in their own journey.”
