On this week’s episode of The Socially Delightful Podcast, your radiant host Jewel takes you on a ride through real-life adulting with laughs, lessons, and a whole lot of heart. 💬✨
Jewel kicks things off with a behind-the-scenes look at how this podcast came to life during the chaos of the pandemic—yep, it started with a dream, a mic, and a whole lot of "let’s just see what happens!" 🎙️
She’s joined by the amazing Paige, who just hit a major milestone—buying her first home! 🏡 Cue the happy tears, the stress, and the real talk about what it actually feels like to make big grown-up moves.
But that’s not all—Jewel and Paige dive headfirst into some spicy Reddit threads that spill the tea on friendship drama, awkward social situations, and the importance of setting boundaries (because let’s face it—some people just don’t get it). 😬👀
From navigating tough conversations to balancing mental health, money, and messy family stuff, this episode is a crash course in how to show up in your relationships with clarity, compassion, and confidence.
