April 24, 2023 S1 Ep119: CONSENSUS: Dating Apps Suck & Closure is Everything
Ready to jump back into the dating game after a breakup? Don't swipe right just yet! The listeners had some STRONG opinions about online dating and the girls shared em' all. Ever wondered what men are thinking when they use the apps?

The girls explore the signs that indicate you're ready to start a new relationship, how to get the closure you NEED, and why moving on is sometimes NECESSARY. Plus, get ready to laugh as we share hilarious stories from real divorced people on the moments they knew their relationship was over. Spoiler alert: some of the responses will have you shaking your head and questioning humanity...not kidding LOL.

We also asked our listeners to share their dating app experiences and why they use them. So, before you dive into the dating pool, remember: there are PLENTY of fish in the sea, but don't spread yourself too thin. Take the time to figure out who YOU are and be the right person before you start looking for Mr. or Mrs. Right.

We LOVE YOU, Candid Fam! Join us this week for another episode of real talk and laughs.

They discuss generational dieting, the difference between ingredient vs. snack households, body shaming that's passed down through generations, and the impact of almond mom phrases on our mindset around nutrition and dieting culture. WTF MOM! Jk - our mama's were just doing the absolute best they could & had to grow up with allllllll the ALMOND MOM habits normalized.

March 20, 2023 S1 Ep114: More Than A Body w/ Dr. Lindsay & Dr. Lexie
Do you ever catch yourself thinking about how your your body looks instead of just LIVING in your body? As Lindsay Kite, Ph.D. and Lexie Kite, Ph.D. would say, “we are in a society where we are not living our lives for us anymore, but we are living for how other people may perceive our lives.” Lindsay and Lexie are identical twins and leading experts in body image and the harmful effects of objectification. They wrote the book More Than a Body- Your Body is an Instrument Not an Ornament and are codirectors of the nonprofit “beauty redefined” and both received PhDs in body image studies. So yes, we are talking genius level expertise.

In this episode Syd and Soph had some mind boggling revelations that lead to some tears, laughs, and vulnerability. Please share this episode with not only your lady friends but also, the men in your life. Change starts here.

March 06, 2023 S1 Ep112: Friendship Icks! Signs They're Toxic & Making New Friends
Friends are allowed to make mistakes - at least, that's what you thought when your friend forgot your birthday. But then she flaked on you for second time that week, purposefully excluded you from the group chat, and made fun of you in front of mutual friends. Yo. This is not a friend and you deserve better.

Syd and Soph chat all about their personal friendship icks, dealbreakers, breakups, and how to make adult friends. As always we share some funny moments from the weekend and spend four minutes too long chatting about what we would do if our family caught us masturbating.. um no. lol. Enjoy!
