Redrum Radio: The Frequency of Freedom
Seven years ago, I buried a dream. It didn’t die — it just went underground. When I got divorced, I said I wanted to be a DJ or a podcaster. He said all the reasons I couldn’t. And then he became both. For years, that burned a quiet hole in me. I didn’t even realize…

The Center of Transition
I’m in mid transition with the podcast and it’s weird. I’m trusting the process as much as I can. 7 years ago, my heart was set on becoming an EDM DJ. Beats make me move. They give me some of the deepest goosebumps I’ve ever had. I wanted to give that to the world. This…

Not a Crime Scene: Why My Podcast Isn’t About The Worst Thing That’s Ever Happened To Me
by Roxy Redrum I was watching the news the other day, and they were covering a trial—another senseless murder, another grieving family standing in a courtroom reading letters to the man who took their daughter’s life. The letters were full of hate. Understandably. They wanted him to feel the weight of what he did. And…

I Took Her Advice… She Didn’t
I used to take on my mother’s irritation like it was my job. Every time she sighed at something my dad did—or didn’t do—I felt it in my bones. I’d try to fix it. Make her laugh. Be extra helpful. Play peacemaker between two adults who made choices I had no say in. For a…

Rebuilding My Kingdom
About a month and a half ago, I had someone try to turn my world upside down. What they didn’t expect, is I flipped the script. Yeah, they rocked my world in the worst way for about a month but after that, it’s all about what’s next. I’m next. I hit this level of burn…

So what’s your name?
There was a time I didn’t know where I ended and other people began. I lived in survival mode, shape-shifting to stay safe. I was who they told me to be — polite, pleasing, quiet, digestible. That version of me got through things I never should have had to survive. But now… Now I’m Roxy.…

I Fed Myself and Went Pee When I Needed To: A Love Story
There’s no medal for eating when you’re hungry. No standing ovation for going pee when you feel the urge. No applause for choosing to take magnesium 90 minutes before bed instead of right before you pass out on your phone. But maybe there should be. Because for some of us, listening to our body after…

🖤 Currently Feeling: The In-Between (Where Nothing Feels Like Anything)
There’s this place no one warns you about. It’s not rock bottom. It’s not the glow-up. It’s the in-between— The dead zone where everything feels flat. Where you don’t give a fuck about anything, but not in the wild, rebellious way—more in the I’m too tired to even pretend I care way. That’s where I’m…

🖤 Currently Feeling: 69°, Unbothered, and Laughing in the Face of Cosmic Fuckery
There’s something funny about it. How when I was the one suffering—breathing in gas, sweating through 85° nights, running on empty—I was told it wasn’t that bad. I was brushed off, minimized, made to feel like I was just being too sensitive. But the moment the discomfort hits them? Suddenly it’s urgent. Suddenly there’s a…
