As we wrap up the year, it’s time to leave jealousy, self-doubt, and comparison behind...kind of. In this episode, I share practical advice for embracing confidence, Aspect Hotness, avoiding/embracing the comparison trap, and finding joy in the dumb things (i.e. pretzels). Plus, I answer a few fun questions about myself and reflect on starting fresh in the new year. Cheers to 2025—let’s get into it!

In this episode, Madi is joined by Hayley Rawle, host of the Girlscamp podcast and dear friend to us all. Today they dive deep into the complex ties between shame, bodies, and their experiences with Mormonism. Together, they explore what bodily autonomy means to them, how they’re learning to embrace their feminine energy, and the ever-evolving journey of womanhood and identity. From raw conversations about motherhood and friendship to finding freedom in self-expression, this episode is a heartfelt, funny, and honest discussion that reminds you: nobody has any idea what the f*ck they're doing.
