Broke Girl Therapy is a place to get real, laugh, and maybe cry a little. It is your weekly safe space with Stefanie Maegan and co-host Rose McAleese. They talk about dating, sex, relationships, love, heartbreak, friendships, and career chaos. Stefanie started the podcast because she couldn’t afford therapy or keep a man, and now she is in a healthy long-term relationship, while Rose is still navigating the dating world and her fear of commitment. They bring different perspectives but share a…

How to Help a Friend Struggling With Mental Health
With a lot happening in both of our lives right now, we’ve realized it’s time to slow down, focus on what’s in front of us, and come back when we have more life to talk about. Don’t worry, this isn’t goodbye. Before we go, we play a round of Retail Therapy, get a little too honest about friendship, dating, validation, and our most unhinged moments, and answer a listener question about how to…
What does dating look like when you’re entering your 30s and suddenly single again? This week, Rose and I respond to a listener navigating a breakup, dating pressure and the fear of falling behind.

Losing Friends in Your 30s (and Admitting You're Jealous)
A TikTok about being “the jealous friend” sent us down a very personal rabbit hole. This episode gets messy, honest, and a little uncomfortable as we unpack friendship jealousy, falling out with people you love, and what happens when someone else is living the life you thought would be yours. Content warning: This episode includes conversations about mental health and self-harm. Please take care…
Why Won't Men Moan?? + Our Full Love Island Season USA Recap
This week, we’re talking wedding hookups, ghosting, men being weird about moaning, hyper-independence, femininity, masculinity, and why some men swear they want to be needed until it actually happens. And because we can’t stop thinking about Love Island USA we of course HAD to talk about our thotz. Send us your questions and stories to be featured on da pod…
This week’s episode is basically what happens when I open the Broke Girl Therapy inbox and immediately regret it. We found two of the most unhinged listener emails we’ve ever received: one that might fully be an elaborate troll, and one archived saga so chaotic it somehow ends up in court. We also get into whether Rose and I could host an award show, highbrow vs. lowbrow comedy, Olivia Rodrigo’s…

This week Rose and I pulled questions straight from Instagram and did a full Q&A. We talked about how to make friends in your 30s, which should honestly come with a manual. We got into books that are actually worth your time vs. books that are just vibes. And yes, we answered the threesome question. Specifically, how to ask for a threesome with another man. Rose had a story, because of course she…
Rachel is back on Broke Girl Therapy and this episode goes from chaotic laundry debates to deep conversations about relationships, marriage, daddy issues, codependency, and what it really means to feel safe with someone. We read a listener email about waiting for commitment, reflect on growing apart in relationships, and somehow still find time to argue about how everyone does their laundry. Send…
