🎙 Episode 3: Mental Health Check – It’s Fine, I’m Fine, Everything’s Fine (But Actually, Let’s Talk)
You ever hit someone with “I’m fine” while mentally spiraling in 12 different directions? Yeah—same. In this episode, we’re breaking down the universal lie we tell ourselves (and everyone else) and getting real about what’s hiding behind the “I’m fine” facade.
We’re unpacking:✨ The not-so-cute combo of burnout, brain fog, and people-pleasing✨ How perfectionism keeps us quiet (and exhausted)✨ Why it’s OK to not be OK—and how to ask for help without guilt
This one’s for the women holding it together with dry shampoo and blind optimism. Let’s laugh, cry, and say the hard stuff out loud—because pretending you're fine is overrated.

🎙 Episode 2: Hot Mess? Nah… We’re Just a Work in Progress (With Good Mascara)
Let’s clear something up real quick: looking like a whole disaster on the outside while still showing up? That’s not a hot mess—that’s resilience in lip gloss. In this episode, we’re calling B.S. on the pressure to have it all together and giving some love to the beautiful, chaotic in-between.
We’re unpacking:✨ Why being “a work in progress” is actually a flex✨ The myth of the perfect woman (and why she doesn’t exist)✨ How to embrace your flaws and still slay in mascara
This one’s for the woman who’s doing her best, probably running late, but still laughing through the chaos. You’re not a mess—you’re a masterpiece in motion.

🎙 Episode 1: Welcome to Our Saying No Era
We’re kicking off this podcast with a big, bold nope to guilt, people-pleasing, and burning ourselves out trying to be everything to everyone. Welcome to our Saying No Era—where we’re choosing boundaries, joy, and showing up as our messy, magical selves.
In this episode, you’ll meet your hosts (that’s us 👋), hear how we met, and learn what inspired us to hit record and start this show. We’re not claiming expert status—we’re just two women with opinions, stories, and a lot of love for the real, unfiltered version of life.
We’re unpacking:✨ Why we’re done performing and ready to be honest✨ The power of saying no (even when it’s uncomfortable)✨ What to expect from the podcast—and how we plan to keep it real, relatable, and slightly unhinged (in the best way)
This is the beginning of something special—and we’re so glad you’re here.
