Sensitive, Not SorryEp. 15: Mini therapy sesh, recapping the first year post-grad, dealing with burnout & inner growthThat's a wrap on season 1 of SNS!!!!! Thank YOU all for sticking around, listening, and if you're new, get excited for another season of honest conversations, many more special guests, and experimenting with new topics. Today, I just wanted to have an unscripted, honest conversation with y'all about where I've been, how I've been feeling, why I need a break, and reflecting on the past year since I graduated college. I hope you can take something away from this episode and at the bare minimum, just know that bad times don't last forever and neither do the good, so...
2023-05-0442 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 14: 23 lessons I've learned in 23 years !!!Today was a bit different than our normal eps, but I really wanted to spice it up and chat about some stuff following my 23rd birthday :) A LOT has been on my mind recently (overthinking, we're not surprised) and I've taken a lot of time to sit and reflect on some of the hardest but most important lessons I've learned in 23 years, including many that I'm actively working on embracing. I hope that this episode speaks to some of you, regardless of where you are in your life right now. Young adulthood is so damn confusing, but take a...
2023-04-2058 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 13: Couples Q+A, finding "the one", living w your partner, managing conflict, how to learn & grow in partnershipToday's episode was such a special one for me because I sat down with my best friend and got to unpack our history, our journey together, and give some advice to other couples in their early 20's wondering about their own situations and what's up next. We talked about how we met, how we knew it was serious, meeting the parents, the importance of best friend approval, how we knew we wanted to move in together, do's and don'ts when talking about milestones, struggling with communication, and so much more. We covered A LOT of ground in this *extra...
2023-04-061h 05Sensitive, Not SorryEp. 12: Selective content consumption, tuning out distractions, and staying in alignment with your truthHappy Thursday zaddies!! Today I wanted to talk about something that has been on my mind a lot and I hope you were able to relate to some things we discussed. I think it's incredibly important to be smart about the content we consume on social media, what we put in our bodies, who we surround ourselves with, and what we spend our time doing. Honestly, forcing myself to take a hard look at the negative habits I've picked up recently has given me such great perspective and has allowed me to learn what works best for me and...
2023-03-3044 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 11: Catching up w/college BFF Nick: Moving to NYC post-grad, managing $, and traveling to find yourselfYALL TODAY'S EPISODE WAS SO MUCH FUN. I got to chat and catch up with a lovely friend of mine who unfortunately lives in the big apple so we don't get to see each other often ;( BUT, we talked about post-grad, moving to a new city alone, managing finances, learning what money tactics work for you, and the magic of traveling care-free as a 20-something. I hope you all enjoyed it and hopefully, you could take something away from this conversation. I really want to do more guest episodes in the future, so definitely let me know what else...

Sensitive, Not SorryEp.10: My journey toward self-love and confidence: self-care is not just face masks & wine, prioritizing health, happiness, and boundariesToday on SNS we talked about prioritizing the people, things, and routines that make us HAPPY and feel GOOD about ourselves. Through this, I feel like we can challenge ourselves to take better care of ourselves, you know that saying "treat yourself like someone you love" is so true. I struggle with this every day, you're not alone. Anyways, just remember self-care DOES NOT need to be a glass of wine and a face mask, it can be if that's your thing babe, but it doesn't have to be.
Know that setting boundaries and taking care of y...

Sensitive, Not SorryEp.9: What does “toxic” really mean? Unpacking toxic relationships, healing through a breakup, and finding genuine connectionsToday we chatted about something kind of random, but also very important. I didn't have anything really calling my name for this week's topic, so I figured I would chat about toxic relationships at 10 PM on a Wednesday, two glasses of wine deep - obviously. Honestly, I hope you all enjoyed the conversation, I wanted to throw some more relationship content out there since most of you have been asking for it hehe.
If you or a loved one is dealing with the fallout of a toxic relationship, a breakup, or anything similar - I hope you a...
2023-03-0949 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 8: Seeing the signs it’s time for a change…plus an exciting announcement & becoming an entrepreneur?Today we chatted about some crazy things I've been noticing in the past week that I *think* are preparing me for some significant changes ahead. Have you guys been feeling this energy shift, too? Oh, and I am gonna be a brand ambassador for my favorite skincare brand in the entire world - CLEARSTEM!!! I will have more updates for y'all at some point, but I am super excited to see where this road may take me. On this topic, I touched on what it takes to make that BIG change, how we know when we're ready, how to...
2023-03-0247 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 7: Wtf is lucky girl syndrome? Let’s talk manifesting, mindset, and creating life-changing opportunities off of your intuitionToday we dig into something I have seen ALL OVER my social media and I just needed to talk to you guys about it. I think lucky girl syndrome is super interesting and there's a lot to be said about manifesting, the law of attraction, and the power of intuition. I truly feel like manifesting and shifting your mindset are both such great tools especially if you're in a season of life where there's a lot of room for doubt, uncertainty, and anxiety. Trust me when I say some of these have really helped me get of a funk...
2023-02-2347 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 6: Party girl turned homebody: my relationship with drinking, partying, & going outToday we chat about something a little more lighthearted, nostalgic, and a little bit cringe. We dig into party culture, social politics, greek life, messy relationships, and my ever-changing relationship with going out and drinking. I hope you all take something away from this episode, even if it's just laughing at the fact that I was once a full-blown *sorority girly.* Anyways, I'm going to keep being geriatric and probably go out maybe once this month because drinking just isn't what it used to be for me. I hope you guys can relate and feel validated if you're feeling...
2023-02-1647 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 5: Taking risks, releasing control, and doing your own thing because it’s just not that deepToday we talked about different topics than usual which was a lot of fun. I was pretty zapped at the beginning of this episode but I hyped myself up around 15 mins in so if you make it that far, I promise it gets better :) We dive into risk-taking, letting go of control, fearing success, why things don't matter nearly as much as we act like they do, and doing what makes YOU happy because other people's opinions are *irrelevant* babes. I hope you guys enjoyed, love ya.
~ Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for next week's episode ~

2023-02-0947 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 4: Letting go of friendships, checking in, & feeling aloneToday we talk about some things I have been thinking about recently, especially after reconnecting with some of my closest friends. We touch on growing pains, drifting from your friends, feeling isolated in your routine, and feeling like there's more to life but it just feels out of reach. The recurring theme is that your 20s are not what everyone said they would be, at least in my opinion - they have been quite the shitshow so far! But, I really hope you all enjoy today's episode, we got a little off-topic but that's more fun anyway. Love ya.
2023-02-0244 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 3: ASK JESS Q+A & opening upToday I answer some questions you guys wrote for me, we chat about some of your favorite pieces from previous episodes, and then we talk about how I've been feeling lately. I feel like you guys will be able to relate to what I have to say because I have been *unwell* recently and have taken a lot of time to reflect and re-evaluate my career, my routine, and where tf I'm going. But, like does anyone know for sure? No. Anyways, I hope you all enjoy today's episode.
Oh, and Happy Thursday - go get yourself a...
2023-01-2650 minSensitive, Not SorryEp. 2: Grieving your past self, mean girls, & finding your peopleToday we're talking about topics that have been heavy on my mind recently - grief in your 20's, why b*itches are b*tches, and figuring out what it means to have a TRUE support system. We get a little messy today and I hope you guys enjoy, this one definitely felt like I was just having drinks and chatting with y'all which was super fun for me :) I have some verrrryyy fun ideas for future episodes so this is just the beginning.
Thanks for listening, and stay tuned for next week's episode!!!
