About this listen

This is a podcast about healing, dating, friendship, and figuring life out in real time — with humor, honesty, and a little bit of delusion (for balance).

Hosted by two best friends navigating modern womanhood, this show dives into relationships, breakups, red flags, self-worth, therapy breakthroughs, and the messy middle between who you were and who you’re becoming. We talk dating stories, emotional growth, boundaries, intuition, and the lessons you only learn the hard way — all while keeping it relatable, unfiltered, and funny.

Some episodes will feel like a deep exhale. Others will feel like a group chat voice note. Either way, you’ll leave feeling seen, validated, and a little more empowered.

Because healing isn’t linear — but it can be cute.

  • Situationships: Why We Accept Them & How to Get Out
    Feb 25 2026

    Ever found yourself stuck in a “what are we?” situation that feels more confusing than fulfilling? The “we’re not exclusive but act like it” mess. 😵‍💫 You’re not alone.

    In this episode, we dive into situationships — why we accept bare minimum energy, ignore red flags, and hold onto potential instead of reality. We talk attachment styles, emotional availability, fear of being alone, and the real reasons we stay longer than we should.

    More importantly, we share how to break free, set boundaries, and choose yourself without guilt. Because you deserve clarity, consistency, and real love — not mixed signals. 💅✨

    If you’ve ever been stuck in the gray area… this one’s for you.

  • Why Are We Attracted to Emotionally Unavailable People?
    Feb 8 2026

    Why do we keep falling for emotionally unavailable people—even when we know it never ends well?

    In this episode, we’re diving into the real reasons behind this pattern, from attachment styles and past wounds to mixed signals and “almost relationships” that leave you confused and exhausted. Through honest stories, laughs, and healing conversations, we unpack why emotional distance can feel so addictive—and how to start choosing connections that actually meet your needs.

    If you’ve ever found yourself dating the same person in different bodies, questioning your worth, or settling for breadcrumbs, this episode is your wake-up call. You deserve consistency, safety, and real love—and we’re here to remind you of that.

    Press play, bestie. 💗✨

  • Is It Them, or Is It My Trauma?
    Jan 26 2026

    In this episode, we get real about that gut-twisting question so many of us have asked while stuck in a confusing connection. We break down the science behind trauma bonds, attachment styles, and toxic relationship cycles—and how they keep you spiraling, second-guessing your instincts, and blaming yourself when something feels off.

    We talk about how manipulation can make you doubt your own reality, why your nervous system stays attached even when your mind knows better, and how past wounds can cloud (or sharpen) your perception. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re overreacting… or finally seeing things clearly—this one’s for you.
