This week, Jordyn, Kaylee, and special guest, Zach discuss the ways that different family upbringings impact who we are. Tune in for a pack of coyotes, the bliss of sheltered suburbia, and a TINY little bit of trauma. 

Navigating friendships as an adult can be humbling. This week, Kaylee and Jordyn reminisce on past friendships and discuss how high-quality adult friendships seem more difficult to come by but so worth the wait. 

This week, Jordyn and Kaylee discuss the honors-student-to-depressed-adult pipeline and the long-term effects of perfectionism.  How does habitual over-achieving and pedestaling elementary school children translate to adulthood, you may ask? Well, spoiler: The duo don't give gifted programs an A+!

It's not the vibe...STOP! 2022 better get its act together soon or we will have some words. This week, Kaylee and Jordyn discuss the chaotic energy surrounding the last month and how they are attempting to move into the new year with some semblance of positivity. 

Not to be a downer but 2021 felt like a personal attack. Today, Jordyn and Kaylee are reflecting on the year and the past few seasons of feeling a little off. It's not all bad, though!

Did the pandemic leave us feeling optimistic about the future of humanity? Probably not. Today, Kaylee and Jordyn discuss takeaways from one of the most notable historic events of our lifetime and how it's changed them.
