In this episode, Caitlin and Emily dive into a wide array of engaging topics that reflect their lives and interests. They discuss the joys of soup season and a Mark Bittman recipe book, while also reflecting on the complexities of being a mom and wife, and the pressure of "perfect moms" on Instagram.

Caitlin shares her experiences with Weight Watchers, tying into broader discussions on self-care, health, and industry-agnostic CEOs. They explore heavier topics like scream therapy, stalkers, and new laws protecting the money earned by children of parent influencers, while also celebrating lighter moments like their shared love for Katherine Hahn, "The Holiday," and their favourite beauty products, from Somerset moss to L'Occitane hand cream.

The duo touches on pop culture, with nods to Anna Kendrick’s latest film and memoir, as well as Tim Burton and Monica Bellucci. They even question if you really have to finish a book once you start and reflect on generational issues like the "Jackpot Generation." Caitlin and Emily weave together humour, vulnerability, and a little bit of everything in this rich, relatable conversation. All show notes from articles and media referenced are below!
