Ep18 - Social Media Pt. 1 (Getting Nostalgic) 24.10.2024 1:14:19
This week it's a two-for-one! Join us as we venture back to our early days of social media, from first iPhones to unearthing memories of PictoChat and Vine (iykyk), all while discussing the evolving challenges of maintaining a digital presence. Listen to how we cope with social media-driven additions and insecurities and how for us, mindful usage is rooted in self-compassion.

Ep15 - Guilty Pleasures 18.09.2024 55:07
What makes a guilty pleasure... guilty? Join us as we unpack our GPs (e.g., excessively long showers, strawberry milkshakes, & falling asleep on the couch) and why we consider them to be less guilty and more pleasure.

[Sex and the City S3E18] In a city where we all live in layers, the privacy of others (or lack thereof) is impossible to ignore. From overflowing bathtubs to getting down and dirty with Rihanna, this week we commiserate with the SATC characters about noisy neighbors and recall the bonds that make city life special. These bonds, whether they be friendships or relationships, come with expectations—e...
Ep13 - Perfectionism 03.09.2024 58:22
Today we're talking about... the complexities of perfectionism and its roots in both personal and external factors. Perfectionism is a double edged sword, and whether it helps or harms us all depends on how we wield it.
Ep12 - SATC Series Pt.6 "Easy Come, Easy Go" 14.08.2024 41:27
[Sex and the City S3E9] This week, we discuss Carrie's relationship with Aiden and her ongoing entanglement with Big. Is Big's insistence on drawing Carrie back into his life romantic or problematic? We'll also explore the dynamics of breakups, the unwelcome feeling of being in competition with an ex, and the daily struggle of head-versus-heart.
Ep11 - Do's and Don'ts 07.08.2024 1:01:23
Today we’re talking about... how to be your best, most considerate city-dweller. If you want to avoid becoming a public enemy at the park, learn how we navigate the Trader Joe’s chaos, or hear our take on ideal restaurant behavior from our perspective as servers, we’ve got you covered.
Ep10 - SATC Series Pt.5 "The Real Me" 31.07.2024 46:39

[Sex and the City S2E13] In our latest SATC installment, we chat about the sacredness of alone time, therapy and its (wrongly) perceived self-indulgence, and debate the morality of game-playing when it comes to love.
Ep5 - Being Interdisciplinary 05.06.2024 44:50
Today we're talking about... what being interdisciplinary even means. We’ve found it’s about striking balance, trusting your intuition and viewing your “plan B" not as a fallback but rather as another branch of your story. The pursuit of many passions is fulfilling but not without lack of sleep, financial limitations and ongoing bouts of imposter syndrome.
Ep4 - SATC Series Pt.2 "Evolution" 30.05.2024 32:42
