Education

too much.

Emma’s always been told she’s, “too much” and now, she’s done apologizing for it. From NY to LA and back again, she’s lived a thousand lives and if there’s anything she’s learned, it’s to be unapologetically yourself. Every Tuesday, Emma is getting raw and real about everything from f*ckups and breakups, thriving (and surviving) in your 20s and 30s, how to be the best version of yourself and so much more. So grab a drink, because we’re going down the rabbit hole…

How to date them like a daddy — FT. Niko Emanuilidis Jan 06, 2026

Show notes

For the first episode of the year, we’re entering uncharted territory: Emma is bringing a man into the studio. Enter Niko Emanuilidis, host of The Daddy Academy — internet “daddy,” modern-day Hitch, and the first guest of 2026. Emma and Niko are going down the dating rabbit hole with a candid, unfiltered conversation about modern dating, masculinity (or the lack there of) and of course, where to find hot single men in NYC.

Together, Emma and Niko unpack the gray areas no one wants to admit out loud: early chemistry vs. future-faking, confidence vs. love bombing, why dating feels like it sucks right now, and what actually signals real interest. Then, Emma puts Niko in the hot seat as he answers listener-submitted questions covering first-date dynamics, texting rules, exclusivity timelines, rosters, ghosting, icks, attraction, and the subtle behaviors that separate emotionally available men from men who just like to mess with your head.

Whether you’re looking for tips to date as a man or a woman, questioning your instincts, or trying to understand what’s real versus what just feels good in the moment — this episode is required listening.

Thankful for what did not work out Dec 30, 2025

Show notes

As the year comes to a close, Emma sits down for an unfiltered, end-of-year reflection that has nothing to do with “New Year, New Me” and everything to do with who she actually showed up as in 2025. Look back with Emma on the most evolutionary year of her life — from walking away from a podcast she built from the ground up, to launching Too Much from scratch, to navigating a life-altering breakup, a move, and a complete redefinition of what choosing yourself really means. She’s going down the rabbit hole down on why the new year isn’t always about reinvention, but about integration, self-trust, and honoring the version of you that survived what you didn’t plan for.

This episode is about boundaries that cost you something, resilience that surprises you, and the quiet wins that don’t show up on a highlight reel — the no’s you said, the times you walked away, and the moments you refused to self-abandon even when it would’ve been easier to stay.

After laying 2025 to rest, Emma shares how she’s thinking about 2026 — not through resolutions, but through intention: how she wants to feel, what she’s no longer available for, and what she’s willing to commit to consistently. If you’re entering the new year carrying unfinished emotional business, unmet expectations, or grief for the life you thought you’d have by now, this episode is your permission slip to properly close the chapter before opening the next one.

So, cheers to surviving. Cheers to choosing yourself. And cheers to doing it all again — just smarter.

Loneliness is louder in December Dec 23, 2025

Show notes

The holidays are here and Emma is going down the rabbit hole on something many people quietly struggle with this time of year: getting comfortable being alone.

In this episode, Emma is unpacking the crucial difference between being alone and feeling lonely — why they’re not the same thing, how each shows up differently in our lives, and why the holidays tend to magnify both.

Drawing from her own experiences with breakups, friendship loss, moving across the country, and spending Christmas alone when she never expected to, were getting into the psychology behind loneliness, why it can feel physically painful, and how our brains are wired to resist solitude.

But this episode isn’t about “fixing” loneliness or pretending it doesn’t exist. It’s about reframing it — learning how to meet your own emotional needs, self-regulate, and build trust with yourself so that connection becomes a choice, not a survival mechanism.

This is a reflective, honest look inward about breakups, comparison culture, social media during the holidays, and why solitude can be one of the most powerful teachers you’ll ever have. If you’re feeling lonely, single, misunderstood, or out of place this season, this episode is a reminder that this chapter is temporary — and that learning to enjoy your own company may be the greatest gift you give yourself.

Who cares if he likes you? — First dates 101 Dec 16, 2025

Show notes

This week, Emma goes down the rabbit hole about everything we get wrong about first dates — and how to stop sabotaging them before they even start.

From why first dates trigger anxiety, to how fear of rejection turns into “pick me” energy, Emma reframes dating as data collection, not an audition. She walks through how to regulate your nerves before a date, how to stay grounded and authentic while you’re on it, and how to avoid oversharing, trauma dumping, or performing for approval.

Emma lays out her personal first-date rulebook: what to share, what to hold back, how to spot red flags like love bombing and future faking, and why compatibility matters more than chemistry. She also gets brutally honest about post-date spiraling — decoding texts, delayed communication, breadcrumbing — and why your worth needs to stay out of the conversation.

If you’ve ever overthought a first date, romanticized potential, or felt crushed by silence afterward, this one will change how you approach dating forever.

Make your friends your soulmates Dec 09, 2025

Show notes

This week, Emma is taking a beat on talking about relationships and men (finally) and is going down the rabbit hole about the people who have carried her through the wildest year of her life: her friends. She’s covering everything the real soulmates we find as adults, why friendship becomes the backbone of your life in your thirties, how adult friendships evolve and what it actually means to nurture the friendships that keep you standing when everything else is burning.

This one is raw, emotional, unexpectedly tear-stained, and full of the kind of tough love that will have you on the phone with the coworker you trauma-bonded with three years ago before the episode even ends. Emma breaks down the patterns she had to outgrow, the accountability she had to learn, the support she didn’t know she was allowed to receive, and the three rules she swears every adult needs if they want friendships that last decades — not seasons. It’s equal parts confession, call-to-action, and a love letter to the women who showed up for her when it mattered.

What's with all the feminine men? Dec 02, 2025

Show notes

This week, Emma gets brutally honest about why so many women are stuck in their masculine energy — and why she’s officially done living in fight-or-flight for men who can’t lead, can’t decide, and can’t show up. After a chaotic, emotional weekend of moving, parties, and running into people she did not need to see, she breaks down the moment she realized she’s been carrying way too much in her relationships.

Emma goes down the rabbit hole into the real psychology behind masculine vs. feminine energy (hint: it’s not gender, it’s survival mode), how women get pushed into “wearing the pants,” and the effort gap that’s dragging modern dating into the trenches. She lays out the red flags, the patterns, and the exact traits that separate boys from men — plus what it actually takes to feel safe enough to soften again.

There’s a surprising reunion, a reality check she didn’t see coming, and a look into what dating is going to look like for her now: higher standards, stronger boundaries, and absolutely no mothering grown a** men.

Show notes

Done wearing the pants Nov 18, 2025

Show notes

This week, Emma is going down the rabbit hole on the one thing that determines every dating outcome, every relationship dynamic, and every “WTF am I doing” moment: boundaries. Fresh off her own breakup and officially in her NYC single-era renaissance, she breaks down how boundaries show up in early dating, long-term relationships, and those confusing almost-situationships that plague the modern dating world.

Emma is unpacking the non-negotiables and hard-stop boundaries, how to communicate them without sounding unhinged, how to filter out the wrong people instantly, and why dating in your 30s is basically one long psychological experiment in self-respect. And now that she’s back on the market, Emma is sharing her own Non-Negotiable List she’ll be packing on every date so that you can start yours too.

Whether you’re newly single, chronically disappointed by the apps, or just tired of abandoning yourself for men who can’t plan a date, this episode is a masterclass in choosing yourself first — then choosing better.

Welcome to your boundary bootcamp.

We broke up — Part two Nov 11, 2025

Show notes

This is an episode Emma never thought she'd have to record. In Part Two of her time-capsule episode, she returns with the update no one expected: Emma and “Mr. Right” are have broken up. No sob story, no dragging — just radical honesty. From cognitive dissonance to sunk-cost fallacy, she breaks down how a picture-perfect love unraveled after she recorded Part One on September 23rd, why misaligned futures can masquerade as “almost right,” and what choosing yourself actually looks like.

This isn’t a story about blame — it’s about bravery. About walking away from someone good because it’s no longer right. About trusting your gut when your head and heart are at war. Emma shares the raw, unfiltered truth about what it really means to outgrow a love you thought would last forever.

We broke up — Part one Nov 11, 2025

Show notes

On September 23rd, Emma sat down to record something she has never done before — a time-capsule episode. Her relationship with Mr. Right began to feel shaky so instead of waiting until the seemingly inevitable happened to talk about it, she recorded a digital diary entry in real time that she would only release when there was a conclusion to the uncertainty and what might become either her engagement announcement… or her breakup story. And today is that day.

After two years with “Mr. Right,” talk of rings, proposals, and building a family suddenly takes a turn that forced Emma to confront one of life’s hardest emotional paradoxes: when someone says I love you, but I’m not ready. From naming the abandonment wound and the self-sabotage itch to the nervous system spiral that happens when “not yet” sounds a lot like “not you” — this is the beginning of the end and Emma is taking you with her.

Watch the full video episode on YouTube and tune into Part Two to hear how what she thought was the perfect relationship unraveled.
