Sisterly

It's been a big week in pop culture. Love Island UK is in full swing and the internet is having a meltdown over Hailey Bieber and Selena Gomez. Have no idea what we're talking about? We explain it all in today's episode, as well as what our society's obsession with these two women says about us.

Most of us know what it's like to walk into a room where you don't know anybody and feel your stomach drop. Social anxiety is something a lot of us deal with on a day-to-day basis. Today, we discuss our experiences with social anxiety and the coping mechanisms we use to help us in these high-pressure situations. 

On this Valentine's Day, we laugh through some of our earliest rejections and talk about some of our experiences in middle school, high school and college where we were shut down. Join us this Valentine's Day as we remind you not to take rejection too seriously or to heart! 

In this episode we talk about our current struggles with body image and discuss what factors seem to make it worse, as well as well as our musing on what helps improve our mindsets.

CW: body image. Feel free to skip this episode if body image/body issues topics are not helpful for you to hear about! We'll be waiting for you on the next one.  

Join us on today's episode as we break down some of the biggest friendship transitions we've experienced. We talk through three different time periods where we've experienced this, how we manage it, and tips for how you can get through it too.

In this episode we talk about the lull that can come with January - it's post-holidays, nothing big to immediately look forward to, and there is a lot of pressure to keep up with ambitious New Year's resolutions. We also discuss the books we're reading, Miley Cyrus's new song Flowers, and season 2 of White Lotus. 

In our first episode of 2023 we go through our intentions for the new year. We also discuss our holidays, Olivia's time in Australia, the new season of White Lotus, and we go on a 20-minute rant about Avatar: The Way of Water...If you don't want any movie spoilers, be sure to skip from minute 13:00 to 30:52!

On this week's episode, we're rambling, but about important topics! We have a highly anticipated update on Rebecca's ice skating journey, we talk about scary situations we've witnessed with men exhibiting trash behavior and then we wrap it up with a new segment on Sisterly advice. 

In this episode we continue our wedding series to discuss one of the  more stressful aspects of wedding planning: the budget.
