We ran a half marathon this weekend. Of course we won’t shut up about it.
In this episode, we’re breaking down everything from our pre-race prep to the emotional rollercoaster of race day, plus the unexpected life lessons that came out of running 13.1 miles.

This week, Quinn is pressing pause on dating after feeling the fatigue of opening up again and again. Vulnerability isn’t her default, and constantly flexing that muscle is starting to wear. Meanwhile, Katie reflects on how doing the work does get easier—especially when both people are leaning in. We talk about the awkward art of accepting compliments, what it really takes to believe nice things about ourselves, and why not all relationship “work” is a bad thing.

Quinn’s back from a bachelorette weekend with the same crew from four years ago — same city, wildly different energy. This week, we talk about how party culture shifts in your 30s, why we need to throw more celebrations for single friends’ milestones, and what it means to actually move forward from past dating patterns. Plus: Quinn’s friendzone addiction, a lesson in communication from a new flame, and why talking about dating intentions early on shouldn’t be taboo.

Quinn opens up about getting 'dumped' after a month of dating — and the hard lessons she’s learning about slowing down, self-sabotage, and why taking your own advice feels impossible sometimes. Katie delivers some much-needed truth bombs (and leaves Quinn speechless). It’s raw, a little humbling, and exactly the reminder we all need about growth in dating.

This week, Quinn and I dive deep into the complicated layers of family dynamics—what happens when the bond of blood isn't enough to build a relationship you'd actually choose? We unpack a commonly misunderstood phrase, get into the nitty-gritty of conflict in friendships (including a real one between us!), and explore what makes a bond truly solid. Spoiler: it’s not just DNA. Come for the hot takes, stay for the healing.

Katie’s home from her trip and brought her soft girl era with her. We’re officially stepping into our lover girl era—and to prove it, Quinn sheds her first on-air tears.

In this week's episode of Unprotected Ex, Quinn’s in a crush haze, occasionally getting in her own head thanks to some “too much too soon” panic. Katie’s five months into her relationship and thriving.

We unpack the emotional chaos of early feelings, roast dating jargon (slow burns, soft launches, sustainable selves—enough), and touch on the big stuff: dads, grief, boundaries, and why “it’ll happen when you least expect it” is kinda rude. This one’s a whirlwind. Blame the ADHD.

You might owe someone money after listening to this episode.

‘Can you really be friends with an ex?’ Well, we’ve got firsthand experience - we dated in 2024 and they're ready to talk about it. The mic is on, the vibes are good, and the tea is piping.

This week on UnprotectedEx, we’re talking all about asking for help (spoiler: it’s a flex), Quinn’s first date recap, and the bittersweet truth about friendship breakups.

Outgrowing people isn’t a bad thing — it’s a sign of growth. If we’re always evolving (and isn’t that the goal?), it’s only natural that some friendships won’t fit the same way they used to. No hard feelings, just different chapters.

This week, Katie spills the tea on meeting B’s parents (applause is welcome, thank you). Spoiler: It wasn’t chaotic, and apparently, that’s a good thing — shoutout to her therapist for the reality check. But from surviving family introductions, we dive into something way harder: having those “big talks” in relationships.

Want to know how to bring up kids or no kids on the first date without sounding like you’re plotting five years ahead? Yeahhh, we talk about that, too.
