What is your attachment style when it comes to money?
And who taught you to relate to it that way?

For many of us, money is loaded with shame, silence, and confusion. We were undereducated, discouraged from asking questions, and taught to believe that not knowing was somehow our fault. The result is a relationship with money that feels anxious, avoidant, or out of our control.

This week, Angelica and Randi open up one of the most intimate conversations we can have as women. They’re joined by Annie King, Senior Financial Solutions Specialist at Sausville Benson Financial, to break down the emotional and psychological barriers surrounding money and power.

This episode is about reclaiming agency, building confidence, and understanding that financial health is deeply connected to mental, emotional, and overall well being. Because getting your money right is not just about numbers. It’s about stepping into your power.

Join Randi and Angelica as they unpack the “embarrassing boyfriend” era: why we stayed, why we shouldn’t have, and what actually happens when you finally develop self-worth and raise the bar. Spoiler: it’s not all butterfly poses, soft-girl vibes, and cute situationships. Sometimes it’s chaos, clarity, and a whole lot of cringe.

Randi and Angelica are once again blessed with the wisdom (and patience) of Melissa Fulgieri, aka therapist to the millennials. This week we’re going beyond the usual ‘reparent yourself’ pep talk and diving into what relational trauma actually is—and all the messy ways it shows up. Melissa also walks Angelica through her cirque-du-so-extra–level anxiety about ethical nonmonogamy, and answers the big question: how is ENM not just a rebrand of having a side-piece?

This week, Randi and Angelica welcome Lynn Harris — comedian, feminist firestarter, and founder of Gold Comedy — to spill the (possibly tepid, definitely overpriced) tea on comedy, mental health, and why the world needs way more women with microphones.

This week, Randi and Angelica are joined by the wise and wonderful Melissa Fulgieri — therapist, professor, and author extraordinaire. Melissa specializes in helping high-achieving adults dive deeper into their inner worlds and build more authentic lives. Together, the trio tackles a tough but oh-so-important topic: what it's really like to be in a relationship with a narcissist — and how to reclaim your power afterward. Expect real talk, healing insights, and a few laughs along the way. It’s raw, it’s relatable, and it might just be your new favorite episode.

Randi and Angelica are back for a new season, and episode one is diving into the messy world of how politics messes with our mental health. These days, the political chaos has a lot of women—and marginalized folks in general—feeling anxious and on edge. In this episode, they break down what’s going on and what we can do about it.

Randi and Angelica are joined by the hilarious and insightful Dani Faith Leonard — comedian, producer, filmmaker, and creator of the hit comedy show Adult Sex Ed. In this episode, Dani dives into the wild world of sex education: what we weren’t taught, what we learned wrong, and how the language we use to label our bodies reveals way more than we think. Get ready for an eye-opening (and laugh-out-loud) conversation about misinformation, self-discovery, and breaking down taboos — one awkward truth at a time.

Randi and Angelica are joined by couples therapist, Ellen Usatin. While Ellen utilizes a variety of tools in her therapist tool kit, she finds EFT to be her goto. Ellen walks Randi and Angelica through what EFT is, what type of issues generally bring couples to therapy and how to make the most out of therapy as a couple.

In this episode, Randi and Angelica explore the intersection of sex, independence, and societal expectations, with a focus on sex positivity and the pervasive influence of patriarchy on women's sexual identities. They take a critical look at the stereotype of the “cat lady,” challenging the misconceptions that surround single, independent women, and how these labels are often rooted in patriarchal views. The discussion also delves into how misinformation and societal pressures shape and sometimes distort women's sexual experiences and autonomy. Through open and honest conversation, Randi and Angelica aim to empower listeners to embrace a more liberated and self-defined understanding of sexuality.
