it’s love month, but instead of talking about romantic love, we’re giving flowers to the most underrated love of all: female friendship. in this galentine’s episode, we talk about why friendships with other women matter so much, the green flags that tell you you’re in the right ones, and easy ways to celebrate your girls from near or far, without spending a ton of money. consider this your reminder that love isn’t just roses and dates - sometimes it’s group chats, pizza nights, and friends who make your heart feel full 🌹💕✨

somewhere along the way, we all decided there’s a timeline we’re supposed to be following. in this episode, we talk about why being “behind” in your 20s or 30s is literally made up, where that pressure even comes from, and what these years are actually for. spoiler: no one has it figured out, and you’re not late - you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.

we’re back with our favorite way to set intentions for the new year: our ins & outs for 2026. but first, we’re reflecting on our 2025 ins & outs - what stuck, what didn’t, and how this year shaped us. ins & outs are our favorite way to reset because they’re rooted in vibes and intention, not pressure or perfection. no rigid goals, just choosing what we’re carrying into 2026 and what we’re leaving behind (with maybe a few slightly unhinged takes along the way) 😉

we’ve all said it: “i don’t have time” or “i don’t have the energy".

this ep is basically about how if something actually matters to you, you’ll make it work.

we talk packed schedules, low energy days, and why it’s usually priorities (not time) deciding what gets done. tune in for real-life examples + simple strategies you can actually use to make things work.

it’s officially cuffing season, which means temps are dropping and the pressure is rising. in this episode, we break down what cuffing season actually is, why the vibes shift this time of year, and how to navigate it whether you’re single, in a relationship, or somewhere in between. plus - how to stay magnetic, keep your standards high, and not spiral over someone who only texts you “wyd” at 11 pm. consider this your seasonal survival guide.

okay sooo… we’re back 👀 and we kinda rebranded everything. welcome to girl whatever!

we realized our old podcast (own your life) didn’t totally feel like us anymore - we’ve changed, grown, messed up a bit, and wanted something that matched where we’re at now.

in this episode, we’re talking all about starting over - why it’s actually good to reinvent yourself, how to know when you’re out of alignment, and little ways to shake things up when life feels off. because sometimes the best thing you can do is say “girl, whatever” and start fresh. we’re so excited to be back and to figure it all out with you. thank you for being here!!
