Ep 236. I’d Rather be Hurt By The Truth Feb 09, 2023

Show notes

In this week's episode, Shanti buys herself tickets to a play in New York for another solo date as Antoinette also considers dating herself due to the poor selection of men out here who respond with green texts, and have poor dating etiquette.
For our main topic, we dive into the taboo. What happens when you are in love with a person who you can't have? Do we indulge in our pleasure and get more entangled in love? Do we withdraw and stop all communication in the name of respect and morality? Or do we push the boundaries outside of society's norms and recreate relationship structures that fit our needs? What would you do? Join us.

Show notes

In this week's episode, Shanti is inspired by Toni Morrison and wants to create "a place that feels like it is all hers" as she navigates nurturing her inner world and cultivating new hobbies. Antoinette leans into daily stretching and shares her attempt at a homemade ice bath that didn't go as planned. Together, we talk about projection after a recent conflict with one another. What is projection? What is it seated in? How can we become more aware when we are projecting? Join us...

Ep 233. No Good News Jan 30, 2023

Show notes

*Note* This episode was recorded before the video release of Tyre Nichol's' brutal murder at the hands of Memphis police.
In this week's episode, Shanti manages the emotional and collateral damage of having her business' Instagram account stolen from her while Antoinette celebrates the release of her newest podcast "Can't Afford Therapy". Together, we agree that Bob Ross was good at stroking more than just a paintbrush! We disagree on the significance of Beyonce's recent performance in Dubai, shake our heads at Biden's growing stack of confiscated confidential papers, and the consequences of Florida's governor's "Anti-Woke" crusades.

Ep 232: Are Rewards Ruining Us? Jan 26, 2023

Show notes

In this week's episode, Shanti stands by her mac and cheese and finds joy in headphones and Homegoods while Antoinette shares her shock at Black women getting facial cosmetic surgery. Together, we listen to callers' very different responses to the same episode about marriage and longevity. For our main topic, Antoinette finds that only a white man, Dr. Andrew Huberman holds the keys to her motivation. Inspired by his teachings, she offers his advice on how to start the day off "right" and stay motivated for a lifetime. Join us...
