The FIFA Women’s World Cup, Taylor Swift’s new video, and Big Little Lies season 2. We’ve got some big talking points for this week’s episode, and we’ve also got some funky sound thanks to a new recording set up. Bear with us as we work out the kinks!

We want to know about authenticity on social media. How do you achieve it? Is it necessary? And where did this trend of keeping it real come from, anyway?

The persecuted becomes the persecutor, b****. (Caroline’s words.) She’s delving into the mind of her younger self today and Hannah is gloating about her youth and ability to always have a good time. All in all a feel-good episode for everyone involved. What advice would you give your younger self?

That’s really good advice on my part.



If you’ve been awake at any time in the last few years, then you know that burnout is a very real thing. But what does burnout specifically look like for women? We have some thoughts, and some of us may be realizing that it’s time to take further steps in getting a hold of our mental health. We hope you feel seen in this episode, and would love to know how you feel about burnout.

And of course, we’re hitting on some hot topics in the world of women!

How do you improve your relationship with food?



Did you know that one state currently has a history-making majority female state assembly? And that North Carolina’s governor is doing some pretty great things for women? And that Countess Luann has a cabaret show?

It’s all on the docket today, and then we’re talking about our relationships with food and alcohol. Are they healthy? Are we happy? We asked you to weigh in, and we’re breaking it all down PLUS one of us is getting insulted, pretty regularly, by the other. We’ll let you figure out which is which.

Hannah was talking about a few IG accounts for that push body positivity. What are they?

The elephant in the ladies’ room



This week we’re getting our fix of the Kardashians and Game of Thrones, as usual, but we wanted to get into a topic that’s so important to women and has been taking up a lot of our newsfeed lately: abortion.

This is a conversation we want to de-stigmatize, because both of us feel that it’s a bit taboo. And we both have some thoughts that we wanted to share, so we hope you’ll give it a listen.

What was that you were saying about the origins of the religious right and their stance on abortion?
Check out this Politico piece, and this is another good one from HuffPo.

R.I.P. to my hopes and dreams



Today we’re hitting on a couple of heavy topics before we talk about the Met Gala (we’re only over a week late), Kim K in Charlotte, and what we’ve been watching on TV (good AND bad. Looking at you, GoT.)

It sounded like a good idea to get your thoughts on things that weigh heavily on women, specifically, and you delivered! We’re bringing up some listener input today and we hope you feel seen, heard, and get a few laughs in along the way.

Ahh I don’t want Game of Thrones spoilers!
No worries! Just skip from around 25 minutes until 37 minutes. But come back later and listen in!

Women give each other the once-over



Taylor Swift’s new song has been out for over a week, and you KNOW we had to talk about it. Plus more hard-hitting celebrity and entertainment news, before we get into more thoughts on beauty standards and self-image this week.

Yep! Here’s the link, and here’s another good read. Check it out!

We’re All Very Normal



We’re going hard right out of the gate with Kim Kardashian, Beyonce, and other cool things women are doing, before getting into our topic of the day: what are your beauty standards? What will you do to change your body or appearance, and what won’t you do?

This is part 1 of a conversation about what it looks like to be our best selves (on the outside!)

If you had to pick a way to go, I would for sure pick black hole, With Christina Marcellino



We can’t *not* talk about black holes and women in STEM, right?? We’re kicking off this week with a few stories about women right now, and then we’re having a conversation with Christina Marcellino from Carolina Charm about how to prioritize your relationships when the going gets rough! She’s amazing, we loved this, and we hope you do too.

But before we dive in with Christina, we talked about women having a hard time getting credit for their work in STEM. Read more and dive into this subject! Here and here are a couple of good starting points.
