When Life Gives You Red Flags, Start a Podcast.
Spill the Tea... UNFILTERED.
Spill the Tea Unfiltered is a raw, honest podcast born from a story neither host could have made up if they tried.
Lauren was married. Amber thought she was starting something new. Neither woman knew they were connected… until one suspicious charge, two pre-purchased movie tickets, and a gut feeling Lauren couldn’t ignore led her straight to a movie theater—where she came face-to-face with the woman her husband was dating.
That woman was Amber.
What could have turned into blame, anger, or silence became something neither of them expected… truth, friendship, healing, and eventually, a microphone.
Now hosted by Lauren and Amber, Spill the Tea Unfiltered turns heartbreak into healing, red flags into reality checks, and hard lessons into conversations women everywhere need to hear. From love bombing, gaslighting, betrayal, divorce, and starting over to boundaries, self-worth, dating, and learning to trust your intuition again… nothing is off-limits.
With humor, honesty, and zero sugarcoating, Lauren and Amber sip, spill, and serve the kind of conversations that make you laugh, think, heal, and maybe text your best friend, “Okay… you need to hear this.”
Because peace, healing, and choosing yourself will always be worth it. ☕🔥
Meet Lauren
Lauren grew up in the breathtaking mountains of North Carolina, dreaming big and chasing success. When she landed her “dream job” in Washington, DC, she thought she had it all—until reality slapped her in the face. DC life wasn’t it, so when an opportunity to relocate to Huntsville, AL, popped up, she packed her bags and never looked back.
Then came him. The guy who seemed like the one—until she found out he was nothing more than a walking red flag factory. Turns out, he’d been using her from day one, and she didn’t uncover the full betrayal until a year into their marriage. Plot twist? That heartbreak didn’t break her. Instead, she took that mess and turned it into a movement.
Cue Spill the Tea Unfiltered—the podcast where women sip, spill, and serve up hard-earned wisdom about love, lies, and lessons learned the hard way. Because if Lauren can help even one woman spot the red flags she missed, then honey, it was all worth it.
Meet Amber
Amber grew up in the Panhandle of Florida with a kind heart, a free spirit, and a deep belief in love. She loved hard, trusted deeply, and assumed the best in people—until life started handing her lessons instead of fairytales.
First came a relationship that wasn’t just toxic, but abusive—physically, sexually, and emotionally. She survived it, even when it tried to break her. Then came a love that felt safe and real… until alcohol took the wheel and refused to let go. She tried to save him. Spoiler alert: you can’t.
After a devastating breakup with the man she thought was her soulmate, Amber packed up her life and moved to Huntsville for a fresh start. New city. New chapter. Same hope. That’s when she met him—the almost-husband. The ring was coming, the future was planned… until she opened his phone and uncovered multiple betrayals hiding in plain sight.
Plot twist? That pain didn’t ruin her—it refined her.
Cue Spill the Tea Unfiltered, the podcast where red flags turn into reality checks and heartbreak into healing. It’s a space for women who’ve ignored their intuition, loved the wrong person too long, and are now choosing themselves. With honesty, humor, and a whole lot of truth, we remind women that healing is possible—and that peace is always worth the walk away.
Because if sharing her story helps even one woman leave sooner, heal faster, or trust herself again—then every chapter was worth it.

The lesson? No more Dicks. No more games. No more BS.
Hit play & grab your tea—this one’s unmissable.

Trigger Warning Human Trafficking

Dearest Mother
August 18, 2026
In this week’s episode, Lauren and Amber discuss loss and the unique challenges that come with losing someone your own age. They then dive into this week’s story: toxic mothers. After a friend of Lauren’s mother sends her a text, the situation quickly spirals, leading to a deeper conversation about boundaries and the challenges that can arise when parents refuse to respect them. Lauren and Amber explore the importance of recognizing that being someone’s parent, or sharing the same blood, does not excuse toxic or harmful behavior. At the end of the day, relationships should not leave you feeling constantly drained, hurt, or diminished. When a relationship becomes harmful to your well-being, it may be time to establish firm boundaries or, when necessary, walk away.
