chase your fears 29.05.2026 40minthis week i talk about moving to new york, feeling completely untethered, and what happens when you finally reach the version of life you always imagined for yourself and realize you still have no clue what comes next. i get into fear, uncertainty, why i think some of the best things in my life came from periods where i felt the most lost, and this idea of chasing your fears instead of spending your whole life running from them. we also talk about heartbreak as redirection, manifesting feelings instead of goals, and why younger you doesn’t always get to decide the rest of your life for you. enjoy love u

yapping with flowerovlove! 22.05.2026 53minthis week I am joined by joyce and we talk about how we became friends, the weirdness of fashion week, missing flights because of heartbreak, dropping out of school, situationships that should’ve ended six months earlier, and why having a crush is sometimes just projecting an entire personality onto a man who barely exists. we also get into dick print analysis, emetophobia, celibacy, coachella anxiety, and whether love is actually about the person or just the feeling itself, so really this girl chat episode has it all! enjoy love u

grace and forgiveness 24.04.2026 52minthis week i talk about grace, forgiveness, and why i don’t think they’re the same thing at all. i get into this idea that forgiveness is supposed to mean you’re healed, and how that never really made sense to me because i can understand someone, even feel compassion for them, and still be hurt by what they did. i talk about trying to intellectualize my way out of pain, why that doesn’t work, and the moment i realized i’ve been giving everyone else space to be human but not myself. this one’s about letting both things exist at once, peace without pretending, compassion without self-abandonment, and figuring out what i actually owe people after they hurt me. enjoy, love u

dinosaurs and dictatorships 27.03.2026 38minFrom dinosaur documentaries to a TSA encounter that became an analogy for friendship, this week's episode helped me understand that everything is kind of a projection. i talk about living out of a suitcase, missing my flight, and falling down a rabbit hole of evolution, extinction, and how nothing we think is permanent actually is. then i get into people, why we get so triggered by certain traits in others, and how most of what we feel is just a reflection of something in us. this one is really about detachment, perspective, and realizing not everything is as personal as it feels. as always, love u

the danger of seeing the good in people 06.03.2026 43minwe’re back with another advice session from your submissions and this week we talk about toxic relationships, trauma bonds, and the danger of seeing the good in people who consistently hurt you. i get into why bad relationships can feel impossible to leave, why it sometimes feels like the person who hurt you “wins,” and how compassion can slowly turn into self-betrayal if you’re not careful. we also talk about boundaries, self-honor, and the difference between loving someone and sacrificing yourself for them. this one is about protecting your heart without losing your ability to love. love u enjoy

discipline and trusting yourself 27.02.2026 42minexciting new announcement this week and life updates that made me think more about discipline and how I want to learn to trust myself again. recently a lot has come up around trying to outrun old versions of myself and realizing that change doesn't always leave your bad habits behind. i talk about living in my head like it’s a courtroom, why overthinking feels like control, and how doing the small things really matter: drinking water, making the bed, keeping small promises, and calling your energy back. this one’s about rebuilding trust with myself in the tiniest ways possible and betting on me in this new season :)

2025 debrief with photos // EP 96 16.01.2026 43minthis week i do something a bit different. i go through my camera roll month by month and randomly pick photos from the last year, then explain what was actually happening behind each one. some are funny, some are embarrassing, some are way heavier than they look. it turns into a kind of accidental debrief of 2025, how much i hid, what i avoided talking about, and what all those moments say about shame, alignment, and letting things exist without rewriting them. it’s less of a resolution episode and more of a chance to let you in to the moments I didn't really show you guys but wish I did, while reflecting on them to prepare for this year. enjoy love u!!!!

romanticizing being alone 12.12.2025 47minthis week i talk about going quiet for a while and what happens when life forces you to slow down and sit with yourself. i get into my fear of being seen alone, why that feeling has followed me since i was a kid, and how i finally stopped letting it dictate my choices. i talk about traveling by myself, meeting strangers, creative block, curiosity, and relearning how to enjoy my own company without shame. it’s about trusting your instincts, romanticizing the in between moments, and realizing that being alone doesn’t mean you’re lacking anything. enjoy love u

How to change ur reality 31.10.2025 49minthis week i talk about how to change your reality when you feel stuck, uninspired, or like you’re living the wrong life. i get into what it means to lose your spark, how to start believing in yourself again, and why sometimes the smallest changes—a different route to work, a new song, a stupid hat—can shift everything. i also talk about self-sabotage, fear of success, and how courage is usually just being scared and doing it anyway. love u guys

why do u feel unlovable 24.10.2025 46minthis week i talk about what it means to actually sit down with the voices in your head instead of just pretending they don’t exist. i get into jealousy, shame, why validation from other people never really fixes anything, and the way we convince ourselves we’re unlovable for the dumbest reasons. i also share what it felt like to disappear for a month, why my ego has a fuck ass bob, and how noticing the scary stuff might be the only way through. enjoy, missed u

how to rage bait a man 19.09.2025 43minthis week i talk about rage baiting men and how it’s actually one of the most efficient ways to figure out who you’re dealing with. i get into the subtle ways misogyny shows up in everyday life, how to use small questions and jokes to poke at fragile egos, and why “i know” might be the most dangerous thing you can say back to a compliment. we also talk male validation, internet rabbit holes, and the false sense of safety we get from assuming “he was raised by a woman” means anything at all. no one is exempt, so let’s have some fun testing them. enjoy love u

Lesbian masterdoc 15.08.2025 47minbefore i get into the lesbian master doc, i would be remiss not to acknowledge belly betraying herself and rage baiting the audience, jeremiah’s weird possessiveness, and why conrad’s distance was love disguised as avoidance. then it’s onto compulsory heterosexuality, how liking gay or fictional men is safer, and why attraction doesn’t always mean action. also: how society makes us confuse friendship with crushes and why i hate that every guy friend would still sleep with you. welcome to my dissertation!
