So apparently, “decentering men” is tired now. A trend. A phase. Except… we’re still watching women shape-shift to be chosen by men who can’t name their emotions or wash their legs. This episode is for the woman who's done orbiting her life around being picked. We’re talking about what decentering men actually means, why it’s not about bitterness, and how this shift might be the exact thing your healing has been missing. If you’re single, spiraling, or somewhere in between—this is your reminder: your life is already happening. Let’s make it yours.

If you’ve ever wondered, “Did I heal too much? Is that why dating feels so hard now?”—this episode is for you. We’re getting into what it really means to outgrow chaos, stop chasing the high of anxious attachment, and hold out for the kind of love that actually feels safe. It’s not that you’re too much—it’s that you’ve raised your standards and learned how to trust yourself. This episode is your reminder: you didn’t heal too much. You just stopped settling.

What if the sadness you’re feeling isn’t just about being single... but about grieving the life you thought you’d have by now? In this episode of Single, Not Spiraling, we’re talking about disenfranchised grief—the kind that doesn’t get talked about because there’s no funeral, no breakup, no obvious loss. Just you, quietly mourning the version of adulthood you imagined: the partner, the house, the milestones. We unpack the cultural timelines that were never built for single women, the system that still ties a woman’s worth to being “chosen,” and why giving yourself permission to feel it all is the most powerful thing you can do.

This one’s personal. It’s a love letter, a pep talk, and a little bit of a call-out. After being single for a long time (hi, 7 years), I’ve learned that confidence doesn’t come from someone choosing you—it comes from building a life that turns you on without waiting for them to show up. In this episode, I’m walking you through 10 things every single woman needs—not to get the guy, but to feel alive, grounded, and fucking proud of the life she’s creating. From vibrators to rituals, girlfriends to guilty pleasures, we’re going there. This isn’t about becoming better. It’s about becoming you. More fully, more unapologetically, more deliciously than ever before. So pour the wine in the real glass. Light the candle. And press play. Because you’re not spiraling—you’re single, and you’re thriving.

Money isn’t just math — it’s emotional, messy, and wrapped in way more shame than most of us want to admit. In this episode of Single, Not Spiraling, I’m getting brutally honest about what it means to navigate debt, guilt, and survival-mode spending as a single woman.

We’re talking about why being financially “behind” doesn’t make you broken, why the system actually is rigged, and what it looks like to build intimacy with your money instead of ghosting it every time things get tight.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re drowning financially while trying to keep up appearances — this one’s for you. No budgeting hacks. No bootstraps. Just truth, compassion, and a hell of a lot of unlearning. Because shame can’t survive honesty — and your worth has never been tied to your bank balance.
