Hey Hoops & Glossers —
Buckle up for a road trip recap that turns into a full-blown midsummer meltdown (with a dash of Gaga fever and Bieber breakdown concerns thrown in for good measure).

In this unfiltered solo episode, Melis recaps her California college tour with daughter Devyn (yep, the baby’s driving now 😱), shares her manifestation station dreams of living that Montecito life, and spirals just a tiny bit into pop culture chaos. We’re talking Justin, Britney, Gaga, and why Meghan Markle deserves a break. Oh—and yes, she’s still trying to snag last-minute tickets to Gaga’s Mayhem Ball. Because obviously.

✨ In this episode:

  • Devyn’s volleyball camp + Melis’ UCSB nostalgia trip

  • Mama’s dream life: a future house in Montecito (watch out, Oprah)

  • Lady Gaga obsession hits peak level

  • Midsummer burnout and back-to-school countdown feels

  • A reminder: You’re not alone if this summer feels a little… unhinged

If you’re feeling off, overstimulated, or just done with summer chaos, this one’s for you. We’re in it together.

🌀 Come hang. Laugh. Vent. Manifest something wild.

xoxo
