You ask, we listen. This week we are so excited to have our first ever guests on the podcast. Bonny & Emily are our two best friends and honestly just the best humans you could possibly ever meet. This episode we’re talking about a highly requested topic; being single in your 20’s and why deep, connected friendship is so central to this time in our lives.

We chat about everything from our own experiences with being single after long-term relationships, identifying what it is you really want (and need) from a partner and how our friendships with each other have helped us grow into who we are today. Plus… several mentions of Taylor Swift - naturally.

Trigger warning: We talk about dieting and body image extensively in this episode.

Hello beautiful humans! This week we’re talking about that weird cultural phenomenon that insists we starve ourselves and hate our bodies. We talk about our own experiences with diet culture, why it’s so damn hard to unlearn the toxic attitude surrounding losing weight and our thoughts on influencers who promote diet mentality to their audience.

Howdy partners. This week we're talking about the confusing, hard, frustrating, but ultimately beautiful process of healing.
