Deep and Funny

We’re back with two episodes this week (thanks to some packing chaos), and in this one, we’re talking all things Thanksgiving, family chaos, and emotional growth. Rachelle shares her surprisingly peaceful holiday and a not-so-peaceful moment of realizing she might have a few resentments to unpack. Alyssa dives into her experience with food noise, and the two reflect on therapy breakthroughs, emotional boundaries, and mushy textures. It’s candid, cozy, and full of those “yep, same” moments. Come hang out and get deep (and funny) with us!

In this episode, Alyssa and Rachelle get deep and personal as they explore the concept of internal “parts” — including the child, the parent, and the adult — and how those roles appear in therapy, daily life, and relationships. They reflect on how perfectionism, OCPD tendencies, and unspoken “rules” shape their experiences and interactions. Rachelle shares an honest look at struggles in her marriage, unpacking everything from emotional labor and resentment to feeling seen and validated in a partnership. The episode closes with a candid conversation about external validation, living between a 5 and a 7, and the power of creating vulnerable, safe spaces in relationships.

Fresh from a wedding weekend, Rachelle and Alyssa recap the chaos and charm of officiating, maid-of-honoring, and trying not to trip over long dresses—or their own words. They dive into what it really means to “put your mask on first,” knowing when your cup is full, and finding balance when you're an overthinking people-pleaser.

In this episode of Deep and Funny, Rachelle and Alyssa dive into everything from chaotic pet-sitting adventures to their weekend hosting a pop-up shop—and the unexpectedly heartwarming moments that came with it. They get candid about what it might mean to lose interest in something core to your identity, debate whether they'd rather go blind or deaf, and explore Brené Brown’s values exercise. Alyssa reveals her top values (spoiler: it's not just football), and the two have a vulnerable friendship moment where they talk about frustrating each other—and themselves—with grace and honesty.

This week, Alyssa and Rachel cover everything from late-night cereal binges and controversial brownie takes to Rachel's oddly satisfying habit of eating ice cream with a fork. They also dive into the Enneagram and how understanding their types (and stress responses) has helped them navigate relationships and personal growth. Plus, there's talk of fruit-and-veggie cleanses, emotional safety words like "Malibu" and "Panda," and a surprising hot take on The Wild Robot.

Whether you're here for the laughs or the existential personality test revelations, this episode has a little something for everyone.

We’re embracing our iPad girly era, navigating an unexpected spending spiral, and diving into financial anxiety, nostalgia (or as we call it, timesickness), and the weight of big life changes. From tech upgrades and impulse buys to deep conversations about family, loss, and personal growth, this episode is equal parts lighthearted and introspective—because that’s just how we roll.

What starts as wedding talk and skincare tips quickly spirals into a full-blown hygiene debate. Alyssa and Rachelle tackle everything from shower routines and handwashing (Alyssa has strong feelings) to the barefoot vs. shoe-wearing divide.

Somehow, we also get into routines (or the struggle to have them), tension in the body, and loving people the wrong way. It’s weird, funny, and just the right amount of deep. Grab some hand sanitizer (or don’t) and dive in!
