This week’s episode is giving cozy, reflective, and just the right amount of unhinged 🤭

Sips of the Week is a surprise find from Jungle Jim’s — an amazing Riesling in the CUTEST black cat bottle 🐈‍⬛🍷 paired perfectly with a quirky little Turkish delight treat that Syd picked out (she really nailed the vibe on this one).

We get into some unexpected backstory this episode — learning about M’s family ties to the original Homestead Act and realizing that even though we grew up 19 hours apart, our childhoods were weirdly similar 🫶 cue all the nostalgic talk about grandparents making homemade jams and our sudden desire to become that kind of people.

Things get a little deeper as we talk about healing — like the kind where you finally feel safe enough to fully be your weird, authentic self around your people 💅 and honestly? we’re living for it.

We also touch on M’s casual CPTSD and swap some birthday trauma stories (you know… as one does 😅), which somehow turns into hyping up Syd’s husband (as we SHOULD) and sharing some exciting life updates 👀

Big news: Syd and her hubby are starting their own DJ business 🎧✨ and it inspires M to start her freelance bartending era… we love a main character moment!!

And of course, we wrap things up with some wholesome updates on M’s cats because balance is everything 🐾

Grab your drink and come chittin’ and chattin’ with us — this one feels like a warm hug with a little chaos mixed in 🤍
