#204 Divorce is Awesome
Is there really such a thing as "happily divorced"? If you or someone you know has been quietly suffering in an unhappy, unfulfilling, or soul-crushing relationship for far too long, If you know deep down it’s over, but something keeps you stuck... then this was written just for you. This epiosde is an encouraging message for anyone who feels trapped, who’s been carrying the weight of “should I stay or should I go?” and can’t seem to pull the plug. Jayna shares her own experience with divorce, as well as the things we don’t usually say out loud—the relief, the rediscovery, the unexpected joy on the other side. If you’ve been unhappy for a long time and wondering if there’s more waiting on the other side… this episode is your permission slip to start wanting more and making your peace a priority. A gentle reminder that sometimes, what seems like an ending is really a new beginning.

#203 Are Your Besties The Best? Let's Put Them To The Test!📝

#203 Are Your Besties The Best? Let's Put Them To The Test!📝
Are your friends top tier, or have you just gotten used to the bare minimum? In this episode, Jayna is putting friendships to the test—with a playful (but telling 👀) Fab Friend Report Card that will have you side-eyeing your group chat in the best way. From hype levels and loyalty to jealousy (or lack thereof), reciprocity, and being a true safe space… we’re breaking down what top tier friendship actually looks like. You’ll be scoring your circle in real time—1 to 3 for each category—plus a little bonus point for something Jayna describes as the highest top tier quality. But don’t worry—this isn’t about cancelling your friends. It’s about getting honest about what you have, what you deserve, and what you might want to call in more of. Because the truth is… not everyone is meant to be top tier—and that doesn’t make them bad. It just means they might not be your people in that way. So grab a pen, open your notes app, and let’s find out… ✨ Are your besties the best… or is it time for a friendship upgrade? SCORING 💛 7–12 points: “Baseline Friends” These are your good, normal, everyday friends. They: like you enjoy your company show up when it’s easy But they might not: go out of their way deeply invest or consistently show up at that next level “These are your ‘we have a good time’ friends… not necessarily your ‘I’d trust you with my life’ friends.” 👉 Translation: Totally fine… just know what lane they belong in. 🙂 13–16 points: “Growing Into It” There’s definitely something better than average here here. Your friends: have top tier moments show flashes of real depth sometimes rise to the occasion But it’s not fully consistent yet. “They can be that friend… they’re just not always that friend.” 👉 Translation: Potential is there—but consistency is what makes it elite. 🔥 17–19 points: “Solid Circle” Okay this is a strong group. These friends: support you care about you show up in meaningful ways You likely feel: safe valued and seen most of the time “You’ve got real connection here… this isn’t surface level.” 👉 Translation: This is a circle you can build with. 💎 20–21 points: “Top Tier Energy” Now we’re talking. These are the friends who: consistently show up genuinely celebrate you inspire you and make your life better just by being in it “You don’t question them… you experience them.” 👉 Translation: This is the kind of friendship people wish they had. 👑 22 points (with bonus): “Elite, Ride-or-Die” This is rare air. These friends: don’t just support your life… they’re part of building it protect your name show up behind the scenes and would absolutely help you move, cry, build, heal… all of it “These aren’t just friends… these are your people.” 👉 Translation: Keep them close. Be that friend back.

Sima travels to Iran with just one goal: To figure out if the man she's only met twice is going to be her husband or not. (No pressure, right?!) The once long-distance connection quickly turns into family meetings, cultural traditions, gold coin negotiations, and a wedding timeline that moves faster than you can say "wedding dress".

Part 1 of a story that will unravel into something you won’t be able to stop thinking about. In this episode, Jayna introduces a woman very close to her heart — a trusted member of her makeup team and a friend who, like so many of us, wanted love badly enough she silenced her own intuition. What begins as a romantic, hopeful meeting with a man who feels like “the one” quickly becomes the opening chapter of a much bigger, darker, and more complicated journey. This episode is the calm before the storm — the butterflies, the chemistry, the moments that feel fated… and the tiny red flags that are easy to dismiss when you’re in too deep. It lays the emotional groundwork for a multi-part series that will unfold into betrayal, endurance, and the devastating cost of abandoning yourself for love. By the end, you’ll be asking one question: is this the man she marries… or the man who changes her forever?

#189 Do They Hate Me? And Other Thoughts That Drive Me Crazy
Are you a sucker for taking things personally? Have you ever walked away from an interaction assuming, “Oh… they definitely hate me”. Same. In this playful, feel-good episode, Jayna talks about how wildly wrong we can be about people when we assume their tone, mood, or energy is personal. Through funny misunderstandings, awkward moments, and very relatable scenarios, she explores what’s really going on beneath the surface. This episode is a reminder (served with humor and heart) that not every weird vibe is about you, not every silence is rejection, and not every reaction deserves a spiral. Especially during the holidays, when emotions are high and patience is low, Jayna shows you how to laugh it off, protect your peace, and confidently remind yourself: that’s not a me problem, babe! ✨ 🎁 If you enjoy this show and would like to show your appreciation, please click here: Our not-so-secret goal is to create a tribe of badass women who find beauty in the messiest parts of life.

#188 You’ll Never BELIEVE What Happened On Our Family Vacation!!
What was SUPPOSED to be a beautiful family vacation turned out to be a week straight out of a reality tv disaster reel. This episode is funny, unhinged, and full of all the chaos Jayna DIDN'T post on Instagram. (We're talking some serious “are you kidding me?!” moments) Our host had every reason to lose her mind, but somewhere between the stress and the unmet expectations, she learned that sometimes connection happens in the messy, unfiltered, totally imperfect moments. If you’ve ever planned the “perfect trip” only to end up crying, stressed, and bonding through absolute nonsense… this one is for you! Also...did you know Jayna's an international drug smuggler??...it's true!

#187 Is Squirting Pee? + How Porn Affects What's Expected of You & Me
WARNING: ADULT CONTENT This week, Jayna's breaking down the most over-hyped and misunderstood trend in the bedroom. She clarifies what squirting really is, how the female body actually works, and why the porn industry has completely distorted our understanding of it with camera tricks, bladder hacks, and pressure-filled expectations that don’t belong in real bedrooms. Most importantly, this episode is here to calm nerves, clear myths, and remind every woman that her body isn’t “broken” if she hasn’t squirted — it simply means she’s a normal human being and not a paid performer with a gallon of Fiji water backstage. This one's fierce, informative, and full of “OHHH now that makes sense” moments. If you’ve ever wondered what’s fact, what’s fantasy, and what’s pure internet delusion… Jayna’s here to hand you the truth on a silver (waterproof) platter. Expect: 💦 Real science, not porn plotlines 💦 The #1 factor that determines whether someone squirts 💦 Why porn-trained men desperately need a re-education 💦 A rant about how ridiculous squirting expectations have become 💦 Permission to explore your pleasure without pressur If you enjoy this show and would like to show your appreciation, please click here: Our not-so-secret goal is to create a tribe of badass women who find beauty in the messiest parts of life.
