The World Is Your Sinkhole

Since We Last Talked

We are back from a brief hiatus last month to catch up about our lives, the state of the country, and sinkholes... because why not? Catryn has randomly jumped back into the real estate market, just celebrated her baby becoming a toddler, and is trying not to spiral about politics (what else is new), and Mary is planning her bachelorette trip, has survived her eyes filling with blood, and has (potentially) found religion again thanks to White Lotus. There's a lot to unpack in this episode.

Face to Face with Plastic Surgery

Since We Last Talked

As millennial women, the question of whether or not to get work done has been a topic of discussion for most of our lives. Minor adjustments, such as filler and Botox, are no longer the splurge they once were. And more dramatic alterations are becoming more common place and normalized than ever before thanks to the influx of celebrities and influencers sharing their experiences under the knife.

Growing Up In Purity Culture

Since We Last Talked

Coming in hot with a taboo topic for our fourth episode (that is, according to our 13 year old selves). Growing up in the bible belt in the 90's brought with it a whole lot of bizarre ideas about relationships, sex, sexual health, and purity. We're covering how we were brought up, how we feel about things now as adults, and the big impacts purity culture had on society along the way.

Be a Girl's Girl - Breaking Down internalized Misogyny

Since We Last Talked

Misogyny is, unfortunately, incredibly normalized in our society, telling girls and women alike that being overly feminine is a negative thing. Today we are talking about our own internalized misogyny that we have been actively breaking down in our adulthood and how we are embracing the power that comes with being a woman.

To Mom or Not To Mom

Since We Last Talked

The debate on whether or not to have kids in today's society is one that many women are facing. From one friend who is childless by choice, and another friend who is just recently entering into motherhood, we are sitting down to talk about what it means to be a parent and why a lot of our population is opting out of the "traditional" family unit.
