Wait… What’s Next? is the podcast that feels like running into two friends at your favorite coffee spot, except the conversation goes places most people are too polished to go. We’re talking career pivots you didn’t plan, relationships that changed you, and the version of yourself you’re still figuring out, all with a cafecito in hand and zero judgment.
Hosted by Laura Alba, a Colombian-born marketing professional who built her life from scratch after moving to the U.S. at 15, and Amanda Brilhante, a former national news anchor turned event host, two women who’ve navigated more than a few “wait… what now?” moments of their own.
Every week, they pull up a seat either to talk through their own in-between moments or alongside guests who’ve shaped their paths through real transitions in career, relationships, health, and identity. They dare to have the honest conversations you wish someone had with you sooner, getting real without the filter.
Join us every week. New episodes drop on Thursdays.
Come for the deep talks, the occasional gossip, and the safe space where you’ll feel a sense of belonging and leave with a little more clarity, at the very least, in your heart.
Happy sips ☕
with Laura (@l_alba_z) & Amanda (@amandakbril)

Season 2, We’re Back: Bigger Plot Twists and Even Bigger Life Transitions
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Season Two just walked in, and she looks good.
If you are navigating a career change, questioning your relationship, moving cities, rebuilding after burnout, or quietly reinventing yourself… welcome. You’re in the right place.
This season is for anyone in a life transition. The in between. The messy middle. The “I thought I had it figured out” era. We talk career pivots, identity shifts, wellness during change, starting over, and what growth actually feels like while it’s happening.
In this first episode back, Laura sits down with a guest whose story is layered. National news reporter. Big New York City move. Dream job. Job loss. Career transition. Moving back home. Moving in with her boyfriend. Reinvention in real time.
It’s honest. It’s real talk. It’s not a highlight reel.
If you’re in the middle of figuring out your next move, redefining what success actually means to you, or rebuilding your confidence during a major life transition, this conversation is going to land and push you back into your power.
And stay until the end. We’ve been keeping something from you. The surprise makes this season even bigger.
