Mia James | Episode 14

In this episode of In The Thickk Of It, Amanda Thickk sits down with Mia James for one of the most honest conversations of the season.

Mia opens up about motherhood, mental health, and what it’s really like to live in a career built around visibility. From burnout and body image to loneliness and stigma, she shares the emotional realities that rarely make it into headlines.

The conversation also explores neurodivergence — including ADHD, masking, and late diagnosis — and how identity shifts when your public image doesn’t always match your private experience. Mia speaks candidly about relationships, communication, trust, and navigating judgment both inside and outside the industry.

This episode pulls back the curtain on fame, pressure, and reclaiming your narrative in a world that constantly tries to define you.
