    Girl Talk Ep. 2, Part 2: Pick-Me Girls & the Friends Who Ghost

    Content warning: this episode includes mentions of suicide, drug use, and harassment. Part 2 of our friendship breakups episode is all about your stories. Angie and Britani read the friendship breakups you sent in: outgrowing people, fair-weather friends, friends who ghost the second they get a man, and the boyfriend who "just doesn't like" your best friend. They get into why men are not the prize, why a good man is just a mediocre woman, the power of a season of solitude, being full of yourself (in the best way), and whether the internet is a safe space for women. Plus: Angie's Thanksgiving story and why you should be someone's Anna this holiday season, and a preview of next week's Episode 3, all about dating, with Angie's bus theory. There's always another bus. The holidays can be lonely. If you or someone you love is struggling, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), free and 24/7. You can sit with us. Like, share, and tell us your stories in the comments.

Angie also opens up for the first time about surviving domestic violence and tells the craziest friendship breakup story she's ever had: the friend who played the long game. Plus: why we're good enoughists, not perfectionists, why your vote matters this Election Day, and our first-ever fact check (we checked ourselves so you don't have to).

    9. Fitness Talk: Why You're Not Seeing Results!

    Many of us struggle to see results when it comes to fitness, and often times the one thing getting in the way of reaching our goals... is ourselves. When you can learn to be consistent, have realistic timelines, and implement self-accountability, you can then set yourself up for success. There will always be peaks and valleys when we are working towards any goal, but remember that if you are in the valley, a peak is right around the corner.
