We’re serving straight shots of truth in this episode, so pour a drink and get comfy. From being “offended” all the time to chasing unavailable people to settling for a life you don’t even like — we’re breaking down the brutally honest advice everyone needs but nobody’s saying out loud. 👏🏽

Whether you’re stuck in a boring routine, navigating toxic dating patterns, questioning your friendships, or just tired of adulting feeling like a scam — this episode is for you. 🖤

We get into:

  • Why being offended doesn’t automatically make you right
  • What to do when they say “I don’t know what I want” (spoiler: leave)
  • How to stop trying to force friendships and start being real
  • Why cheating karma is always gonna spin the block
  • The truth about emotional intelligence, self-awareness, and why you might actually be the problem
  • And why it’s never too late to pivot your life (even at 97)

It’s raw, hilarious, and messy — just how we like it.
