23: Career Pivots, Friendship Red Flags, and a Trashed Groomsuite — with Rebecca Rogers

23: Career Pivots, Friendship Red Flags, and a Trashed Groomsuite — with Rebecca Rogers

Author: Party Planning by Christa June 26, 2025 Duration: 1:18:32
What would you do if a random wedding guest ate your lunch, faked an emergency, and trashed the groom suite? Rebecca Rogers joins Christa for one of the most unhinged stories HCTD has ever featured.

They also get real about toxic friendships, the loneliness of online work, and the importance of recognizing red flags—at weddings and in life. Rebecca opens up about her teaching-to-TikTok pivot, setting boundaries, and why she’ll never apologize for using her voice.

This one’s part comedy, part therapy, and all chaos. (Also: how not to propose during a graduation.)

Ever feel like you're just one awkward family gathering or bizarre social encounter away from a full-blown story? That's the territory explored in Here Comes the Drama with Christa Innis. Hosted by Christa from Party Planning by Christa, this isn't your standard advice show. Instead, it's a deep and often hilarious dive into the messy, relatable, and downright strange situations that define our interactions with others. Each episode feels like a conversation with a clever friend who’s dissecting the latest spectacle, whether it’s sourced from real life, pop culture, or a memorable guest's personal archives. You’ll hear unfiltered discussions that blur the lines between leisure and social commentary, all delivered with a comedic touch that never shies away from the absurd. The charm of this podcast lies in its ability to find the universal thread in our most specific dramas-from relationship quirks and cultural obsessions to the simple comedy of trying to get through the day without a minor catastrophe. Tune in for a mix of solo reflections and interviews that are less about finding solutions and more about celebrating the glorious, complicated theater of everyday life. It’s the perfect companion for anyone who appreciates a good story and the shared laugh that comes from recognizing a piece of themselves in the chaos.
