"If it's your calling, it won't stop calling you." This week on Unwineding, I’m joined by Taylor Popik for a calming, inspiring and honest conversation about what it really looks like to stop playing it safe and start building a life that feels aligned. Taylor shares her journey from practicing law in New York to becoming a full-time content creator, yoga teacher, and entrepreneur—and how trusting herself changed everything.

We talk about redefining success, choosing fulfillment over fear, and releasing the pressure to have it all figured out. This episode is for anyone craving clarity, confidence, and permission to take one aligned step forward, even when the path isn’t fully clear yet. And there's a little dating and friendship talk, OF COURSE. As always, take whatever resonates and leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x

Things you know I love: lessons and lists. And we’re back (hi, missed you!) with the first solo episode of 2026—and I’m sharing the life, love, and friendship lessons I’m intentionally carrying forward this year.

These are the shifts that changed how I date, how I show up in my friendships, and how I move through my own life—the ones I wish I’d learned sooner, and the ones I’m finally honoring now. Consider this episode a reminder that growth doesn’t come from doing more; it comes from seeing things differently.

If you’re in a season of choosing yourself, re-evaluating your relationships, or craving clarity and self-trust, I hope you’ll feel seen here.

As always, take whatever you need and leave the rest. LOVE YOU.

A conversation for anyone who's ever been told they're "too sensitive." In this first DEBRIEF episode (hi, welcome!!!), we’re talking about sensitivity—why it feels so overwhelming, why we try to hide it, and why it’s actually one of the greatest gifts you can have.

I break down what it really means to feel deeply, the science behind highly sensitive people, and why sensitivity creates stronger relationships, deeper connection, and emotional clarity. We also get into self-critique, overthinking, vulnerability, and the truth that people can only meet you where they’ve met themselves.

Think of this as a reminder that your sensitivity isn’t a flaw you need to fix—it’s how your people recognize you, connect with you, and feel safe with you.

We talk about:
• why sensitivity is a strength
• how being “too much” is often just being deeply attuned
• self-critique, emotional depth, and overthinking
• attracting the right people by being fully yourself

If you’re navigating dating, friendship, self-worth, or seasons of feeling “too much,” this episode will help you feel more grounded, more understood, and more connected to who you really are. LOVE YOU. x

“Women have a difficult time keeping the guys they like around and men have a hard time getting the girls they want.”

Hi ladiesssss, I'm so excited to welcome Ben Hart, dating coach & content creator, to Unwineding this week! Don’t tell him, but he’s one of my favorite voices in the dating space—I find his advice direct, fun, practical, and incredibly honest (which is what we sometimes don’t want but absolutely need).

Think of this episode as your guide to modern dating—we’re exploring the messy, sometimes confusing early stages where most of us (hi, women who unfortunately date men) start to lose our power. We get into how dating content overload is making us over-intellectualize everything, why we’re obsessed with templates and rules, and what actually matters more than counting the hours between his texts.

We talk:
• why we’re all over-consuming dating advice and under-listening to how we actually feel
• the difference between being strategic vs. being hyper-tactical and counting every minute between texts
• “matching energy,” reacting to his every move, and how that quietly gives your power away
• why texting makes us *lose our minds* sometimes
• how men are thinking about vulnerability
• the art of FLIRTING (and how to get approached out in the wild)
• worthiness, self-respect, and identity shifts for the relationship you want

If you want to feel more confident, more calm, and more in your power during the early stages of dating (and beyond), this episode is going to be your new best friend. As always, take whatever you needed today & leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x

File this episode under: two girls with severe ADHD in their luteal phase, talking absolute nonsense and forgetting microphones were involved. My beautiful girl Alexis Waters is back on Unwineding (or rather, I went to Dallas to see her), and we caught up on all the important matters: antidepressants, planning a day for our least favorite ex, female friendship, body dysmorphia, self-worth, etc. We break down friendship tiers, the qualities we actually look for in the women we keep close, and why the people around you literally shape who you become.

A little unhinged girl talk, if you will. Hope you enjoy. LOVE YOU. x

Our first episode together: 'how to catch a cheater, fall in love, & stay (kinda) sane ft. Alexis Waters'

"You have to rewire your beliefs to find the love you want." In this episode, I sit down with author, creator, and dating & relationship expert Sabrina Bendory for one of the most grounding conversations I’ve had about modern relationships. We talk about detachment—what it actually is, how women can practice it without becoming cold or avoidant, and why stepping back is sometimes the most self-loving thing you can do. Sabrina breaks down anxious attachment, self-abandonment, emotional spiraling, and why our nervous system plays a bigger role in dating than we think.

We also dive into: learning to trust your intuition, why “mixed signals” aren’t as complicated as they seem, how to stop chasing emotionally unavailable men, and the real mindset shift every woman needs to date from a place of self-worth. If you’re tired of feeling anxious in dating, if you want to understand your patterns, or if you just want to feel more grounded in who you ARE—this episode is your reset.

More topics we explore:

• self-sabotage
• why your thoughts shape your life
• the concept of 'upper limits'
• fear of abandonment
• why you get attached too quickly
• the psychology behind attachment
• heartbreak lessons
• self-worth and boundaries
• feeling like you have to earn love
• becoming magnetic

And so much more. As always, I hope there's something in here you needed. Take whatever resonates—leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x

“There’s no such thing as being behind when you’re living a life that’s aligned.”  In this episode, I sit down with Lindsey Simcik, co-host of Almost 30 and my new favorite person, for one of the most beautiful conversations I didn’t know I needed. We talk about how to fall back in love with your life—especially when it doesn’t look the way you imagined it would. We explore Saturn returns, self-worth, friendship, and the quiet power that comes when you stop waiting to be chosen. If you’ve ever felt “late” or like you’re not on the timeline you hoped for, I promise you, Lindsey will remind you that you’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

We also dive into:

• why you're choosing the wrong people
• feeling empowered to turn 30
• finding your purposes (we have more than 1)
• moving through seasons of change
• navigating your 30's, fearlessly
• working with your bff
• giving yourself permission to pivot
• navigating conflict in friendship
• becoming your own bff

And so much more.

As always, take whatever you need from this conversation and leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x

You know that feeling when someone takes their “dream job” and turns it into their own thing? That’s YouMe Lin. I’m sitting down with my beautiful friend and founder of Cloud Studio—the creative marketing agency she built with so much purpose and heart.

YouMe and I talk about everything from taking the leap to start your own business, to leading with kindness, to building a team that feels like family. She shares how Cloud Studio was born out of a desire to give back— especially to women-owned brands and nonprofits—and what it really means to grow something meaningful and sustainable.

We also get into the mental side of entrepreneurship: staying grounded, protecting your energy, and finding gratitude even when things get hard. It’s such an inspiring, open, and thoughtful conversation that reminds you why doing work with purpose will always matter most.  As always, take whatever you need and leave the rest. LOVE YOU x

 “Sisterhood hits different, you stop needing ten ‘brunch friends’ when one friend holds it all.”

Everybody’s favorite, Angie Lassman, is back this week for another episode all about female friendship. We’re diving deep into the rules of modern friendship and all its intricacies—like staying friends with your BFF’s ex-boyfriend, always being the one to initiate plans, sharing every secret, bringing your significant other everywhere, telling your best friend you don’t like her boyfriend, staying friends just because of history, being a “ride-or-die” friend, and so much more.

We also chat: + attachment styles (and how we’re the literal opposite)

+ how to become more securely-attached + transparency vs. vulnerability in relationships

+ introverted vs. extroverted friendships

+ being friends with someone your bff doesn’t like

+ how valuable rejection is

+ and so much more.
As always, take whatever resonates from this episode and leave the rest. LOVE YOU. x
