too much.

Somewhere between the Renaissance and Raya, men went from writing love letters and fighting for a woman's honor to sending “wyd” texts at 10:47 p.m. And frankly, Emma has some questions. This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole about the lost art of chivalry, the rise of low-effort dating, and how the bare minimum somehow got rebranded as princess treatment. From the history of co...

Four hundred years ago, Emma would've been burned at the stake. Outspoken? Check. Opinionated? Check. Unafraid to tell a man he's an idiot? Guilty as charged. Welcome to the too much. Halloween episode, where apparently the scariest thing a woman can be is herself. This week, Emma trades dating horror stories for actual horror stories, diving into the dark history of the European witch hunts, the...

Welcome back to another episode of ASK EMMA — and just to warn you, apparently, today, she's had just about enough of everyone's b*llshit. This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole into the messy, uncomfortable, and sometimes totally degrading realities of modern dating, relationships, and friendships. From the classic debate of  right person, wrong time to why emotionally unavailab...

Well, this is one hell of a plot twist. A year and a half ago, Emma walked away from a podcast she helped build, lost everything she had worked for, and started over from scratch. Today, she's announcing the biggest career milestone of her life.  In this very special episode of Too Much , Emma is taking you behind the scenes of how she turned one of the most devastating chapters of her life i...

What if the reason you’re upset they ignored the TikTok you sent them… has absolutely nothing to do with the TikTok? This week, we’re going down the rabbit hole of John and Julie Gottman's theory of the fundamental unit of emotional communication: bids for connection — the tiny, often invisible ways we ask the people we love to notice us, choose us. Emma gets into why seem...

Going on vacation with someone sounds romantic until the flight gets canceled, someone’s hangry, the credit card declines, you haven’t had a bowel movement in five days, and suddenly the person you’ve been dating becomes a full-blown mammal. This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole about why traveling with a partner — or someone you’ve known for approximately 19 business days — is one of the...

When did “I don’t feel like it” become a good enough reason to stop showing up for the people we love? This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole on one of her biggest pet peeves: bailing. The last-minute cancellations, the casual “sorry babe, can’t make it,” and the yes that apparently meant “I’ll decide how I feel that day.” Because somewhere between protecting our peace and honoring our boun...

What if you love your life…and you’re still lonely as fuck? Emma is the happiest, most confident and fulfilled she’s ever been. Her career is growing, her friendships are strong, she feels good about herself—and for once, there’s no man wreaking havoc in the background. But this week, Emma goes down the rabbit hole on the kind of loneliness nobody talks about: the kind that can coexist with happin...

Ask Emma is BACK, which means a simple listener question is about to become a full-blown existential crisis. This week, Emma goes down the rabbit hole on dating fatigue, high standards vs. unrealistic expectations, and the question she hates admitting she’s asked herself: does she know too much about relationships to actually enjoy one? She’s talking being single for years without settling, catchi...

Sometimes I feel like looking around your life and saying “wow, I’m so lucky” feels like it skips over the entire plot. The heartbreak. The rejection. The failures. The people who screwed you over. The days you were convinced your life was falling apart… that were actually quietly redirecting it. So in this episode, we’re rethinking gratitude entirely. I’m tracing the dominoes of my own life...

Just curious — when did we get so comfortable with having the same friends, same dinners, same group chat dissecting the same man for the 47th time? And then wonder why we keep getting the same answers? Consider this your wake up call... at some point, you’re feeding the same information into the same machine and expecting a different output. And it's gotta stop. This week, we’re going down the ra...

Why are so many women staying single longer? Maybe because for the first time, we actually can. This week, we’re going down the rabbit hole on why women are getting married later, how financial independence completely changed the dating market, the male loneliness epidemic, and why our parents’ generation cannot seem to comprehend that being single in your 30s is not a medical emergency. Because w...

Have you ever been completely obsessed with someone who was giving you the absolute bare minimum… then you end, a couple weeks go by and you think to yourself, “WTF was I thinking?” Same. And we need to talk about it.  This week, we’re going down the rabbit hole of rejection, validation, dating anxiety and the sneaky way your ego can turn romantic relationships into a competition where every...

What if the things you've always called your personality... aren't actually your personality? What if being "independent," "bad at asking for help," a perfectionist, a people pleaser, or someone who always overexplains isn't just who you are—but who you had to become? In this episode, we're unpacking trauma responses: where they come from, why your brain keeps repeating the same patterns in relati...

If you've ever mentally rehearsed what you'd do if you ran into your ex... buckle up. Because one day, it's gonna happen. This week, Emma's telling you the story of the most chaotic first date of her life — a night that somehow involved her ex, some martinis and a YB. You truly cannot make this shit up. But here's the part that will surprise you.. This episode isn't about him. It's about what your...

Everyone wants permission before they change their life. Permission to quit the job, leave the relationship, start the business, move across the country, hit publish, bet on themselves. Here's the problem: no one's coming to give it to you. This week, Emma sits down with legendary music executive Charlie Walk — the man who helped build the careers of some of the world’s greatest artists like John...

If you've ever mistaken butterflies for a green flag, this might save you years of your dating life. We're constantly told “when you know, you know”, there should be fireworks and that if the chemistry is undeniable, this has got to be your person. But what if the very thing making your heart race is also the thing keeping you stuck? This week, Emma goes full Bill Nye and breaks down the science b...

Turns out the people leaving Cannes Lions with the biggest opportunities weren't the smartest, richest, or most successful people in the room. They were the ones everyone remembered. After two weeks of networking her way through Saint-Tropez, Cannes Lions, and a Hamptons weekend that included lost luggage, international ghosting and a few ex sightings, Emma goes down the rabbit hole on the career...

Sometimes the advice you need isn't the advice you asked for. Different from her typical ASK EMMA's, this week, Emma opens the inbox and goes down the rabbit hole of your biggest dating, relationship and heartbreak stories — from Instagram red flags, zaddies turned age-gap romances to breakups that still don't make sense, partners who rewrite your reality, and the painful difference between choosi...

How many times have you said "I'm fine" when you were anything but? In this weeks episode, Emma goes down the rabbit hole into the unspoken reality of being a woman: somehow holding it all together while quietly falling apart. The heartbreak, the grief, the loneliness, the pressure, the expectations — and the way so many of us have learned to smile through all of it despite wanting to rip a few he...

She loves a filthy martini. She loves a good story. She loves a night that accidentally turns into sunrise. So why is Emma really suddenly questioning alcohol? In this week's episode, Emma gets brutally honest about her relationship with drinking — from high school woods parties and New York City nightlife to finding every reason under the sun to celebrate over a cocktail, she has finally come to...

Everybody always talks about the ex, but Emma thinks we’re asking the wrong question. Because when a friend gets involved with someone you’ve dated, it’s rarely about the guy. It’s about loyalty. It’s about trust. And it’s about the uncomfortable moment when someone’s actions force you to reevaluate what your friendship actually meant to them. With all the Summer House Reunion drama going on, this...

This week's ASK EMMA is probably one of her most brutal yet. What started with a question about feeling lonely when all your friends are in relationships, somehow spirals into a full-blow decent down the rabbit hole about self-worth, friendship breakups, situationships, closure, second chances, birthday existential crises, and why some of the loneliest people aren't actually single at all. Emma an...

This week on Too Much, Emma asks the question we’re all thinking but somehow still tolerating: when did basic human decency become “relationship goals”? Since when are we handing out gold medals because someone texted back, planned a date, or remembered we exist for longer than 12 hours? From receiving the bare minimum and emotional unavailability to “cool girl” conditioning and the psychological...

This week on Too Much , Emma goes down the rabbit hole about one of the most dangerous things in modern dating: the marathon date. The 12-hour first date that turns into brunch, drinks, deep trauma dumping, making out at sunset, a sleepover, breakfast the next morning — and suddenly your brain is convinced you’ve found your husband after knowing a man for 14 business hours. Emma tells the story of...
