Everyone’s talking about that Vogue article asking if having a boyfriend is embarrassing ...so let’s talk about it.

In this week’s Proper Madness Episode, I share why I both agree and disagree with the article ...and how it ties into the burnout, emotional armor, and performative independence so many of us are stuck in.

This episode is about why hyper-independence isn’t hot anymore, why we’ve glamorized exhaustion, and how to start romanticizing your life again in a way that feels real... not aesthetic.

I unpack the ways “doing it all” became a trauma response, how softness got mistaken for weakness, and why letting yourself be supported is actually the most powerful thing you can do.

Grab your tea... this one’s a little unhinged, a little honest, and very needed.
