In this episode of Barely Famous, Kail sits down with Victoria Smith, a domestic violence survivor turned “survivor life coach” who now helps women rebuild after they’ve gotten out. What starts as a conversation about leaving unsafe relationships quickly expands into the parts people don’t always talk about: the long-term impact on confidence, identity, finances, parenting and why “just leave” is rarely that simple.

Victoria shares how surviving years of control and escalation reshaped the way she sees boundaries, safety, and healing, and why she eventually shifted her focus toward supporting survivors on the other side of crisis. Kail also opens up about her own experience navigating the system, the public misunderstanding around domestic violence, and the complicated reality of being judged for choices you make while you’re still trying to survive.

It’s a heavy but honest conversation about domestic violence recovery, trauma, addiction as a coping mechanism, and what it actually takes to reclaim your life and protect your kids after everything changes. If you or someone you love needs help, please visit the national DV support website , call 1 800 7233 or text start at 88788 for guidance and support.

Welcome back to a rare solo episode of Barely Famous Podcast. Kail is kicking off 2026 in full “Controversial Kail is back” mode. This one starts as a life update, but quickly turns into an honest look at how things shift when you’re parenting kids in very different stages, juggling multiple co-parenting dynamics, and trying to keep your peace without pretending everything is neat and tidy.

Kail opens up about the reality of what changes as kids get older , plus how she navigates big milestone moments while still protecting her energy and her kids’ privacy. She also answers a stack of listener questions - from boundaries and personal growth to friendships, healing after a very public breakup, and what she’s manifesting for the year ahead. Along the way, she shares what she’s learning about saying “no,” letting time do its thing, and choosing what’s worth the fight and what simply isn’t.

Kail is joined by Alessandra for an unfiltered catch-up that somehow starts with joking about making a song, and quickly spirals into… everything. They talk about why 2025 felt so heavy, how burnout and the state of the world can kill creativity, and what it’s like having strong opinions online while trying to protect your peace.

They also get into feminism, “opinions” vs. basic human rights, and the complicated pressure around speaking up on social media especially when silence can feel loud, but speaking can come with real consequences.

In true Barely Famous fashion, it’s serious, chaotic, funny, and somehow ends with plans, sports talk, and the reminder that none of us know what we’re doing we’re just winging it and hoping for the best.

In this episode of Barely Famous, I’m sitting down with my sister Mikaila for the very first time on the podcast, and it’s the raw, complicated sister story that so many of you have asked for but also the one I wasn’t sure I was ready to tell. We talk about how she found out I even existed, the Facebook friend requests her mom made her delete, and how the adults in our lives couldn’t get their shit together enough for us to grow up as sisters. We revisit our very different experiences with our dad, what it meant to love someone who couldn’t love themselves well, and how his death and our own estrangement mirrored the same toxic patterns we swore we’d escape.

We also open up about why our last name was never really ours, the identity crisis we picked up along the way and the lifelong ache of trying to find somewhere and someone to belong to. Through all of it, there’s the instinctual love I felt the moment I truly met my niece and a promise to do better for our kids than anyone ever did for us. If you grew up in a complicated family, have “missing” relatives, or are trying to break cycles for the next generation, this one is for you. Grab a tissue.

On this episode of Barely Famous Kail sits down with author Layne Fargo, writer of The Favorites, They Never Learn, and Temper, to talk toxic women, ambition, and why being an “unlikable” female character is actually the goal.

They get into the dark, figure-skating drama of The Favorites (inspired by the Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan scandal), full-cast audiobooks and what it really takes to keep writing after 100+ agent rejections. The ladies also dive into jealousy between ambitious women, BookTok’s impact on feminist fiction, and why choosing authenticity over likability is the real power move.

If you love morally gray women, messy friendship dynamics, and feminist thrillers, this episode is for you!
