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. ☕🔥

In this week’s episode, Lauren and Amber share a powerful story submitted by a listener who hopes to remind women that they are not alone when facing domestic violence, even if it takes time to leave. She explains that abuse is not always visible, and when it isn’t, it can be especially difficult to seek help because others may not recognize that abuse is happening.

The listener emphasizes that emotional and verbal abuse are valid and serious forms of domestic violence, and that no one should feel they have to wait until the situation escalates to physical harm before leaving. In her experience, her former partner frequently handled firearms in a threatening way, leaving her fearful for her safety. Despite the danger, fear kept her from leaving for a long time.

Now free from that relationship, she is sharing her story to raise awareness and to encourage others who may be in similar situations to recognize the signs of abuse and know that support and a way out are possible.

Lauren also shares a personal experience in which a man who had ghosted her a year prior unexpectedly reached out to apologize.

When confronted, he attempted to deflect responsibility by accusing her of infidelity. Lauren and Amber unpack the emotional and psychological impact of gaslighting and deception in intimate relationships.
