Can I Quit Yet? Oct 13, 2026

Show notes

Rebekah thought she'd be somewhere else by now. After a layoff, she found herself in a job that doesn't pay enough, isn't fulfilling, and definitely wasn't part of the plan. We talk about surviving the in-between, getting honest about money, and making a plan to build a career that actually works for your life.

What If It All Works Out? Oct 06, 2026

Show notes

Well…Adjusting and iHeart's podcast, Grown-Up Stuff are joining forces to answer an important question: Why is it so much easier to give advice than actually take it? Robin, Steph, Lea, and Matt gave themselves two weeks to tackle something they’ve been avoiding, then came back with the receipts. We’re talking wins, spectacular failures, accountability, and what actually helps when you know exactly what you should do... and still really don’t wanna do it.

Live, Laugh, Lower Your Expectations Sep 15, 2026

Show notes

Robin's wife, Mary, is back! Last time we discovered she's... not exactly an optimist. So we're checking in to see if anything's changed. We talk about existential dread, Steph's big move back to Canada, and whether choosing joy is a mindset... or just caring a little less.

How Is She This Hopeful? Sep 08, 2026

Show notes

When Emily's father was diagnosed with a terminal illness, her life changed overnight. Instead of giving up, she became his caregiver and started a foundation supporting kids with cancer. We talk about choosing hope, finding purpose in impossible moments, and why optimism isn't about ignoring reality. It's about deciding how to meet it.

My Dad Is Dying… and We’re Still Arguing Jul 21, 2026

Show notes

Leah joins us to talk about anticipatory grief, complicated parent relationships, and what happens when you know a major loss is coming but life keeps moving anyway. We get into caregiving, avoidance, dark humor, and the very human art of telling everyone you’re “fine” when you absolutely are not.

Show notes

Layoffs. AI. Hiring freezes. It feels like everyone knows someone who's looking for work. Laura joins us to unpack what it's like trying to build a creative career when the ground keeps shifting beneath your feet, and how to stay hopeful when the future of work feels anything but certain.

Can We Hang Without a Hangover? Jun 30, 2026

Show notes

For many LGBTQ folks, bars have long been more than bars. They've been community centers, meeting places, and a way to find our people. But what happens when every social plan seems to come with a drink in hand? Aadi joins us to talk about finding the line between social drinking and social habit, creating new ways to connect, and figuring out how to have a great night out without waking up wondering if it was worth it.

Make Robin & Steph's mocktails!

Steph:

1) Use iced tea, lemon, a herb or spice of your choice (Steph uses Cardamom syrup), muddle them up, delicious!

2) Soak hibiscus leaves, lime or lemon juice, fresh ginger, a little honey, to make a refreshing summery pink drink!

Robin:

1) A non-alcoholic tequila is great!

2) Take some lime juice, agave syrup (approx 3 swirls), *important* put them in a cute glass, add fresh mint and muddle. Add a load of ice and fill with seltzer. Garnish with a piece of lime for ultimate aesthetics.

When Anxiety Is the Baseline Jun 23, 2026

Show notes

Drew and Alex from Into the Into the Mud podcast join to chat about what's making us anxious right now. We talk creative paralysis, career spirals, and the pressure to be perfect—whether it’s as a parent, an artist, or just a functioning human. Is anxiety something to fix, or something to live with? How do you know when it’s too much? And what, if anything, actually helps?

Real talk, some swearing, a little hope. And maybe, a reminder that you’re not the only one spiraling.
