In the final rewind episode of the summer, we turn back the clock to one of our personal favorites! Remember when Rae dropped the big "what are we" question? And Kristina rocking the neighborhood mom scene. We're also spilling tea about the craziest things we've ever done in relationships (hint: it involves jumping out of moving vehicles! 🚗). We chat about Rae’s wild Breckenridge girl’s trip, tackle troll comments, and discuss Kristina’s obsession with Mike the Situation. The girls are thriving and leaving that toxic energy behind. "42% of people in their 20s & 30s have never been in a relationship." We’re delving into the inner struggles of never having been in a relationship. In this rom-com generation, we expect great sex and fairytale romances, but overcoming the fear of rejection and battling self-doubt can be daunting. Don’t worry, you’re not alone. The TCC community chimes in with their burning questions and insecurities about their lack of dating experience. We’re here to be your hype women and remind you that you ARE hot, funny, and smart enough to land the person of your dreams. Being perpetually single isn’t a bad thing; if anything, it’s kind of a turn-on.   Podcast episodes of Confident Collective drop every Tuesday. New episodes return NEXT WEEK on September 3rd!

Even the most confident among us can be deeply hurt by fat shaming. Intentional or not, overt or covert, no one wants to experience it. After a recent conversation with our friend Rosie about her distressing encounter with fat shaming on a plane, we found ourselves asking: Why does this still happen? Why is "fat" used as an insult? And why do some people think it's okay to say that? In this re-released episode, we’re diving into the roots of fat phobia, exploring size stereotypes, and discussing why "fat" remains a weaponized term. We reflect on our personal fat-shaming experiences, how they’ve impacted our confidence, what we’ve learned, how to handle such situations, and ultimately, how to rise above these negative comments. Remember, confidence and happiness aren’t dictated by size. Podcast episodes of Confident Collective drop every Tuesday. New episodes return September 3rd! Resources:
