We're back! with a casual chitchat , we're catching up on the end of summer and venting! about the crazy expensive lives of women who have to braid our hair, skyrocketing rental prices in Canada and double standards and identity issues with examples from our favourite source, Twitter. We get into "The brick" incident - a Black woman hit with a brick for turning down a mans advances and compare it to another viral video of a white woman celebrated for her violent behavior at a music festival. Last but certainly not least, we tackle some AITAs from Reddit and a dilemma submitted by one of our lovely annonies. From boundary-crossing in relationships, the pain of ghosting, societal pressures on women's appearances and wedding planner drama #ItsAMouthful !

In this episode, we chat about being in our "Gratitude-era", Charity's brand new pink IPhone and the transformative power of perspective. Small joys, beautiful moments, and the ability to find happiness amidst life's trials. We talk about the complexities of single-hood, loving it, hating it and the pressure to 'fix' ourselves before being considered worthy of it.

Diving further into gratitude; we talk about how out of touch billionaires, like Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and Kim Kardashian; and ask whether their wealth truly brings them contentment, and fulfillment.

Lastly, we take you beyond the glossy facade of "representation" and why we will no longer be applauding fish for swimming. From the messaging in the barbie movie, the controversial Victoria's Secret show and the body shaming that permeates our society as plus sized women to performative DEI initiatives that do more harm at work. It's Honestly A Mouthful!
