    The Let Them Theory

    This week, we’re diving into Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory—the mindset shift that’s been making my life so much easier. If you’ve ever felt frustrated by things out of your control, caught up in what others are doing, or constantly trying to manage situations that aren’t yours to manage, this episode is for you. At the end of the day, there are two parts to every situation: what’s in your hands and what’s not. And the things that aren’t? Let them. Let go. Let yourself move forward. Enjoy!!

    My Top Podcast Recs

    If you're wondering what to listen to when it comes to podcasts, start with these. I’ve been absolutely obsessed with the podcast space for the past 3.5 years, ever since I lived in Chicago. Podcasts have been my go-to for learning, laughing, and keeping me company, and these are the ones I’ve been hooked on lately: Tinx: Let Go or Be Dragged and A Sermon on Summer Comparison—thoughtful takes on letting go, feeling good around the right people, and avoiding the trap of comparison. Mel Robbins: 13 Things I Wish I Knew in My 20s and The Let Them Theory—relatable advice for life, relationships, and finding peace by letting go of expectations. Giggly Squad: Giggling About Updates, Crying, and Stuff—proof that you can laugh about literally everything and not take life so seriously. Him & Her Podcast: Master Your Money & Secure Financial Freedom ft. Katy Song—practical tips for saving, building credit, and investing in your 20s. Diary of a CEO: The Effects of Dopamine ft. Dr. Anna Lembke—a fascinating deep dive into why we chase quick feel-good moments. Call Her Daddy: Lucy Hale: Sober Doesn’t Mean Boring—a refreshing look at redefining fun while living sober.

    How to Make and Keep Friends After Moving to a New City

    This week, we’re covering a little bit of everything—because life in your 20s is nothing if not chaotic. From the LA fires and the TikTok ban (spoiler: it’s not actually banned) to a recap of this year’s best sounds and trends (anyone else obsessed with “How lucky I am to be…”?), we’re reliving the moments that made us laugh, cringe, and feel all the feels. But let’s get real: moving to a new city can flip your life upside down, and I’m opening up about what it’s been like two years after taking the leap. I’m sharing the good, the bad, and the awkward—how to actually make friends in a new city (hint: do it while doing something you already love), why putting in the effort early pays off, and how long it really takes for a new place to feel like home. Spoiler: it’s somewhere between casually crashing on your friend’s couch in sweats and finally having inside jokes with your crew.

    2024: My Year in Review

    2024: My Year in Review This year was both incredibly social and deeply personal for me. I can break it down into three buckets: personal, career, and social. If I mapped it out on a graph, it started low, rose to mid, dipped low again, and is ending on a high note. The theme I set for 2024 was “Letting Go.” I put my hands up and truly let go—learning to love myself and those around me more than I ever thought possible. This year healed me in ways I can’t fully put into words. In this episode, I discuss the importance of a growth year and how even in a growth year, you can still have so much fun alongside the struggles. It’s never just one or the other—both can coexist and make the journey that much richer. As I look ahead to 2025, my new theme is “Just a Little More Effort.” I’m so pleased with how 2024 ended that I know if I keep moving forward with just a little more effort, the results will be exponentially better. Maybe it’s about 1% better every day. It doesn’t have to be huge or groundbreaking because I believe the smallest changes are the most sustainable—and ultimately, the most impactful. xx Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Emma Riedl⁠⁠⁠⁠ (@⁠⁠⁠⁠emmabriedl⁠⁠⁠⁠)  Tik Tok: @emmabriedl @theartof.ebr

    Navigating Change in Your 20s

    Does anyone know to navigate change perfectly? No. But here’s the thing: just because it’s tough doesn’t mean you have to feel completely lost in the process. Here I share practical ways to navigate change without hating every minute of it (though, no promises you won’t have those days too).

    Quality Over Quantity: The Little Mantra That Goes a Long Way

    (but also a dump of people watching, sept. favs, fall wishlist, and the art of eavesdropping in public) In this episode, Emma talks about how the mantra "quality over quantity" plays a major role in her life—from friendships, to plans, the media she consumes, and even how she applies for jobs. When we focus on doing more and more, it often distracts us from doing things well—or even enjoying them at all. Tune in as she reflects on why slowing down and prioritizing what truly matters makes all the difference.
