RE-RELEASE #37 DALLAS HOTSPOTS, WHY MEN NEED THERAPY & DATING DISASTER STORIES WITH COURTNEY STENSLAND Dec 31, 2025

Show notes

You guys… this episode is a full-on Dallas DICTIONARY. I sat down with the queen of recs herself — Courtney Stensland aka @StensInTheCity — and we covered literally everything you need to know about where to eat, drink, date, and accidentally run into your ex in this city.

We’re talking:

🍔 The best burger in Dallas

🍸 Where to happy hour without hating yourself

🌮 Hidden gems for date night (or girls' night)

🥂 Spots that are worth the hype — and ones that aren’t

💅 Aesthetic places to get drunk and take a selfie

❤️‍🔥 How to spot a red flag based on his restaurant choice

Also, yes — Sprouts is now a dating app, I’m still trauma dumping at Smoothie King, and I may or may not have signed up for a salmon sperm facial (again).

#49 BUSH THONGS, HOLIDAY CONFESSIONS & BEING THE BACHELORETTE WITH RACHEL LINDSAY Dec 24, 2025

Show notes

SANTA HASN’T TOUCHED MY SNOW GLOBES IN 84 YEARS 😩🎅

IT’S A HOLIDAY MIRACLE! Rachel Lindsay—attorney, former Bachelorette, and my ride-or-die since Day 2 (not Day 1, RUDE)—joins me on this chaotic, shroom-fueled, ADHD-suspecting, bush-celebrating Christmas episode. We talk Cowboys heartbreak, BravoCon secrets, our iconic Bachelor beginnings (yes, I was the dolphin), and why tamales might just ruin Christmas. Oh, and we played a lil’ holiday confession game that honestly turned into a therapy session.

If you're literally not okay this season, SAME.

Grab some wine, take a breath, and press play, baby 🎧

#48 RED FLAGS, CUBIZIA & NAVIGATING THE CHAOS OF YOUR 20s WITH ASHLYNN NEUMAYER Dec 17, 2025

Show notes

Okay, so this week on Literally, Not OK, I’m joined by my twin flame, TikTok queen, and Cubiza founder herself—Ashlynn Neumayer . We’re talking all about how she went from corporate cubicle tears to FULL-TIME CONTENT BADDIE (hello, viral DJ sets in the office??), her tragic love life (relatable), and why Dallas dating is literally a horror movie.

Ashlynn is funny, real AF, and we both overshare like it’s our job (well... it kinda is). This is the episode for anyone who’s literally not okay and just trying to romanticize their life through seasonal depression, TikTok trends, and apple-flavored Olipops.

👻 Post-nut clarity (yep, we went there)

🧠 Why emotionally intelligent men are rare AF

💋 The importance of a good first kiss (sorry, Nick Viall)

#41 THE GREAT LOCK IN, THREESOMES & AMERICAS NEXT TOP MODEL WITH SARAH HARTSHORNE Oct 29, 2025

Show notes

OMG you guys… I am LITERALLY not OK because I just sat down with comedian, writer, and former America’s Next Top Model contestant Sarah Hartshorne and it was chaotic, healing, hilarious, and deeply unwell in the best way. We’re talking everything from ANTM secrets and quarantine TikToks to her NEW BOOK You Wanna Be On Top?, bisexual awakenings, and why weed (in edible form) is actually self-care.

Sarah gets real about the exploitation behind reality TV, being trapped in a hotel post-elimination, the “Karen haircut” they gave her, and how a threesome basically changed her whole identity. I cried. I laughed. I spiraled. You're gonna LOVE her.
