This week, we are celebrating the unhinged magic of girlhood. The science of Girl Math. The confidence of one drink to trauma dump and three drinks to become everyone’s best friend. The instant bond of meeting a girl in the bar bathroom who tells you she loves your outfit, and suddenly she knows your whole life story.

We look back on the late nights out, the house party phase, the growing-up moments we powered through, and the friendships that held us together. Being a girl's girl means hyping each other up, holding hair back, accidentally putting a hand somewhere regrettable, and laughing about it for years.

We get into the drunk munchies, the struggle of social energy as adults, and the reality of wanting to be invited to everything while also wanting to stay home and ignore texts for a full weekend. There is something so comforting about sending ten TikToks to your best friend instead of a paragraph. It still counts as love.

We dig into the anxious thoughts that never turn off. The imaginary arguments we win in the shower. The survival scenarios we plan in our heads like it is a hobby. Getting ready just to cancel plans because the everything shower took every ounce of energy we had. And the dates that did not deserve the effort we put into shaving, moisturizing, exfoliating, or mentally preparing.

We talk pets being children, needing constant reassurance that we are doing enough, and the specific brand of chaos that makes women the funniest, toughest, most loving humans on the planet.

This episode is for anyone who has ever cried in a bathroom, made a friend in a bathroom, or found the courage to leave the bathroom and dance again. Growing up is weird. Girlhood is wild. But we survived it together, and we are still showing up, snacks in hand, ready for whatever is next.

Men really do have some nerve. In this episode, we’re talking about the audacity of men and the way so many of them move through the world like they’re entitled to our time, our space, our energy, and sometimes even our bodies. From the everyday moments that make you stop and think “seriously?” to the bigger patterns we’ve all had to deal with, we dig into the double standards women are tired of navigating.

We get into the mixed signals, emotional laziness, unsolicited opinions, and men who expect everything while offering the bare minimum. It’s the subtle behaviors, the bold moments, and the way women are constantly expected to shrink or compromise while men do the opposite. These experiences are universal for so many women, and we’re naming them out loud.

We share real stories from our lives, how this shows up in dating and daily interactions, and why these patterns hit such a nerve. It’s honest, a little chaotic, occasionally unhinged, and deeply validating in a way that feels like talking with friends who get it.

If you’ve ever had a man explain your own life to you, ignore your “no," or act like your time belongs to him, this episode will feel familiar.

The holidays felt bigger when we were kids. The lights seemed brighter, the routines felt magical, and everything came with a sense of excitement we didn’t have to think about.

In this episode, we’re talking about the nostalgia of Christmas growing up and how different it feels now. We get into the traditions we loved, the ones that changed over time, and the new ones we’re trying to create as adults. Growing up shifts the way we experience the holidays, and we’re figuring out what still feels good and what doesn’t fit anymore.

We share our favorite memories, how holiday energy has changed as we’ve gotten older, and the funny contrast between childhood expectations and adult reality. It’s honest, warm, and full of the kind of nostalgia that sneaks up on you.

You know that thing where you say you’re taking a break for “self-care,” but really you’re just avoiding everything you actually need to do? Yeah, that’s this episode.

We’re talking about how easy it is to convince ourselves we’re treating or resting when we’re really just procrastinating with better branding. From rewriting to-do lists to make ourselves feel productive, to diving into impossible routines and burning out fast, we’ve done it all.

This week, we’re coming home to the mess we’ve been avoiding. The unread emails, the workouts we overdid once and never repeated, the goals that felt too big to start small. We talk about how we keep setting unreasonable expectations, then wonder why we fail, and how it actually feels good when we just do one thing at a time instead of trying to fix our whole lives in a day.

It’s an episode about the difference between self-care and self-sabotage, the illusion of “treating ourselves,” and the art of breaking the cycle of avoidance. We’re learning to do less, but do it better.

We’re fine. Totally fine. Just out here pretending to have our lives together while everything quietly unravels behind the scenes.

In this episode of Casting It Out, we’re talking about what it really means to be “fine” when you’ve completely derailed your life on purpose and are trying to rebuild it from the ground up. Between job hunting, moving to new places, and figuring out what actually makes us happy, we’re deep in the chaos of starting over and trying to laugh through it.

We’ve done all the things you’re supposed to do: got the degrees, built the careers, hit the milestones. Now we’re both sitting in that weird in-between where everything looks good on paper, but none of it feels like us anymore. It’s disorienting, humbling, and somehow hilarious.

This isn’t an episode about fixing your life; it’s about realizing it was never really broken. We talk about the emotional hangover of always achieving, the burnout that follows when your identity is built around productivity, and the confusing freedom that comes with letting it all fall apart.

There are moments of honesty, delusion, and denial, the full cocktail of trying to function while redefining what “success” even means. We share how we’ve been pretending to be productive, the weird guilt that comes with rest, and what it feels like to start over when everyone else seems settled.

If you’ve ever quit something that was supposed to make you happy, moved cities just to breathe again, or found yourself staring at a blank to-do list, wondering who you even are now, this one’s for you.

It’s just the messy middle of becoming who you actually are.
