that's a wrap! it might not be quite as dramatic as a grey’s anatomy season finale, but it’s just as entertaining! abbey and sarah sit down for one last chat before abbey heads off to italy. they revisit their quarter-life crisis roots and share how much has changed since their very first episode. enjoy the final episode of season one (but don’t worry—there’s plenty more to come)! xoxo
oh, mental health. some of us have it, some of us don't. this week, abbey and sarah unpacking their personal struggles with mental health, what they’re working on, and why healing isn’t exactly linear (or aesthetic). they dive into the pros and cons of therapy, the chaos of self-awareness, and the deep comfort of spiraling with a friend. enjoy! xoxo
friendships in your mid-20s. some friends are married and some are single. some live five minutes away and others live across the country. this week, abbey and sarah discuss the challenges of maintaining friendships as you grow older and how many things like relationships, proximity, life transitions, and shifting priorities can impact how you show up for your people. from navigating long-distance friendships to adjusting expectations, they reflect on what it really means to stay friends. enjoy!! xoxo
abbey and sarah get witchy this week as they dive into the topic of rituals and routines. from full moon simmer pots to birthday journaling, they share their favorite ways to manifest, align with the universe, and tap into the power of the mind. even the silliest rituals can shift your perspective in powerful ways. but before they get too mystical, they kick things off with a classic whine session—because who decided that growing up means being in bed by 9pm after one drink? enjoy this big cosmic yap session!! xoxo
oooo a spicy one! we dive headfirst into dating in this crazy political landscape and how much it changes things. sarah is dating someone who voted differently from her, and abbey declares she can't see herself doing that. a little interview-y and a little debate-y, both of us bring our positions and have a good conversation about how hard it is, where our lines are, what our experiences dating have been, and how we decide how much to let politics sway our relationships (or potential ones). enjoy!!
dating part two is here! we dive into our all time highlights (lowlights?) of our dating journeys. from worst first dates to crazy dating app messages, sarah and abbey have lots to talk about. enjoy! xoxo
ohhh finally a dating episode! the original intent of quarter life crisis was to talk solely about dating, so we are diving into this topic today. even though sarah has found happiness from a dating app (an inspiration to us all) that doesn't mean she doesn't have lots to say on the topic still. and abbey brings us a very current issue from dating that she needs to whine about (she coined a new phrase). we yap about all the culture shifts and modern issues we encounter being mid twenties girls trying to date. (there are so many). enjoy! xoxo
our first guest episode! sarah's roommate and abbey's long time college friend libby joins the pod to share her quarter life crisis. she talks about the possibility of moving in with her boyfriend and leaving the era of living with best friends. she also brings us the whine of the day (more on being women), and her ins/outs of the week. we talk relationships, kids, timelines, societal pressures, and more. enjoy! xoxo
it's part two of our career episodes! last week we talked about nursing and how we are wanting to pivot away from healthcare to pursue other tracks. this week we talk about what sparked these thoughts and gave us permission to pursue creativity and dreams rather than security and stability. it's miss ina garten! she's *the* barefoot contessa, she's an absolute icon, and we're obsessed with the woman. jokes aside (none of this is actually a joke), she has modeled going after what you want with fierceness while also staying humble and being open to learning. she started her cooking career at 30, which is what opened our eyes to the possibility of leaving stable jobs to pursue our passions. we love her!
abbey and sarah whine about being women for about half of the episode, and then they dive into their careers as pediatric nurses and specifically what sparked these quarter life crises they're having. they talk about the good and bad parts of being nurses, how it's so much of their identity, and how there are hidden competitive parts of being a nurse. come chat with us!
our first crisis we talk about! sarah recently said no to a big job opportunity which was really hard for her. this brought us to talk about people pleasing, saying no in your personal and work lives, and how to do this without becoming a selfish person. we also share our ins and outs of the week instead of whining this episode.
meet abbey and sarah! today we talk about why we're starting a podcast, and specifically why it's about quarter life crises (hint: we're both having major ones). we also whine about protein and being healthy.
