  Ep. 4: Running on Empty 25.09.2026 49min

  You can't pour from an empty cup, but what does "empty" actually mean, and when does self-care quietly become an excuse to avoid hard conversations? Wamuyu and Tess get honest about where they're each running on empty right now: 25+ client calls a day with no system to manage them, and the lowest point of a marriage falling apart. They land somewhere unexpected, that you can show up for someone even while running low, as long as you say so. Plus: a practical fix for structuring rest before burnout makes the decision for you.

  Ep. 3: Villain, Victim, Human (Part 2) 21.09.2026 1h 2min

  Part 2 picks up right where we left off. Wamuyu and Tess go deeper into villain vs. victim vs. human. Why blame feels easier than nuance, what it actually takes to hold someone accountable instead of just labeling them the bad guy, and a raw moment about being isolated by your own family when you finally say "I'm done." Also: being reduced to the worst thing you've ever done, and the manipulation tactic of someone using your own shame against you. Our first YouTube episode is now live across all platforms.

  Episode 3: Villain, Victim, Human 14.09.2026 1h 11min

  Villain, victim, or just human? Part 1 of Episode 3 has Wamuyu and Tess sitting with a quote that hits close to home: healing doesn't start with figuring out who was wrong, it starts with asking what was actually happening to both of you. They dig into recent betrayals, where accountability ends and abuse begins, and whether you can be hurt and harmful at the same time. Also: a proper introduction to who they are outside of being sisters. This is our first episode on YouTube — Part 2 drops September 18th.

  Ep. 2 part 2: The Price of Launching 31.08.2026 1h 13min

  Part 2 is here. This half goes deeper than the first. Wamuyu and Tess get into who actually shows up for you in business (hint: not always who you'd expect), the discipline of scheduling rest before burnout demands it, and why "launching is the hard part" is a lie nobody warns you about. The heaviest turn: Tess opens up about her first business failing, not from bad instincts, but as fallout from a marriage quietly falling apart underneath it; and why that was never a personal failure. Part 1 dropped last week; this one completes the conversation.

  Ep. 2: Every expert was once a beginner 21.08.2026 1h 28min

  Every expert was once a beginner, every successful business was once someone's terrifying first day. In Part 1 of this episode, Wamuyu and Tess get real about the chaos of building their own businesses: token meters nobody warned them about, a dental chair leak on opening day, and the five-decisions-a-day rule that's saved Tess's sanity. A conversation about structure, decision paralysis, and choosing yourself when the timing finally feels right. Part 2 drops August 28th 2026

  Ep. 1: The Cost of Trusting People 14.08.2026 1h 8min

  Every quote has a story. This one costs more than most. Wamuyu and Tess Kangethe open the show with: ”To be betrayed or cheated is a small price to pay for showing up in the world assuming the best in people.” Wamuyu breaks down the friendship that fell apart on her spectacularly last December: the favors called in, the excuses made, the moment ”friend” and ”someone who’s just useful to have around” stopped meaning the same thing. It’s a real conversation about naivety, self-protection, and what it actually costs to keep showing up for people who don’t deserve it.
