The podcast for people who want to be ok with being uncomfortable. From wanting to quit your job, questionable dating decisions, and "adult" moments that make you wish you were a kid again - each week we have unapologetically uncomfortable conversations about mental health, work, and relationships. Let's get uncomfortable.
The 5 Year Plan...a lot can change in five years. Or nothing can change. It's mostly up to you. The idea of creating one can be daunting, and the idea of not having one can leave you feeling behind or unprepared. How do you balance both? At what point are you "done"? When do you rest and enjoy the self improvement and how do you know it's even time? Don't worry. We've been on both ends of that…
How many times do you pick up your phone during the day? Where is it when you sleep? Is your phone the first thing you reach for when you wake up? The answers to some of these surprised us (in good ways and not...) If you're like us you might be surprised to find you need (according to the quiz) a complete digital detox...here's how to find out, and how you can unplug in ways that feel easy and…
What do you say when you're not okay after someone apologizes, and how much time is too much time before giving someone space means you aren't friends? There's nothing worse than feeling like you don't know where you stand after you or the other person apologizes, and we dish on all the times we've both given and accepted apologizes and how it changed things (both for the better...and...not)…
Hyperindependent? Same. We’re unpacking how struggling to ask for help is tied to trust and control and what it really means to let people in without losing yourself in the process. For many of us, it’s often less about strength and more about survival. We explore the reasons it’s so hard to let people show up for us, and what it might take to let someone else step up for a change. Follow us on…
Anxiety’s here — might as well make her useful! We’re talking about how to actually listen to the racing thoughts and spirals instead of avoiding them (which, spoiler alert, makes the anxiety worse). From overthinking to overachieving, tune in for honest confessions and a few “wait… that’s actually me” moments. Because maybe thriving isn’t about being calm — it’s about learning from the chaos.…
Are you the planner? The one who follows up with people? The one who cares how the party turns out? The one who is emotionally exhausted from feeling like nobody cares as much as they do? This may be for you. It's easy to take it personally when a friend is visiting your area...and doesn't visit you. Or when you send out a venmo request and they don't reply for 10 days. The truth is, often times,…
If someone warned you about the person you're dating, how seriously would you take it? And if you found out a friend's partner was cheating on them or generally being slimy...would you say anything? We share stories from listeners who have gone through exactly that and recall our favorite Jersey Shore plot line #lettergate because in this situation, is it worth it to open your mouth (or write that…
There's a sense of grief that comes with realizing that someone doesn't belong in your life, or that you don't belong in theirs. If you've ever felt uncomfortable going back to your hometown, maybe even like you're in a weirdly small invisible box, you're not alone. Feeling like you've outgrown a relationship or a place or even a role in your life feels like...loss. At the very least, it's deeply…
Casual hookups aren't for everyone. Dating isn't for everyone. But now do you know what you're even ok with? We've had some deeply uncomfortable times where we weren't even sure rock bottom was the bottom. That discomfort can lead to the most amazing change. But, how do you let it? We get into how to sit in the discomfort and even better, how to embrace it. There are tough conversations that you…
There's a reason pose reels and tiktoks exist - a lot of us don't know what to do with our hands. Even more uncomfortable? Shooting a campaign for Ulta or taking off (most of) your clothes for a boudoir shoot. Getting in front of the camera isn't easy for a lot of us. The reality is, nobody is scrutinizing your pics as hard as you are, but it's still uncomfortable even though a lot of our lives…
