These are the episodes that made us laugh, reflect, and connect the most—and we can’t wait to bring them back for another listen. Each Friday, we’ll be flashing back to a standout episode that deserves a second (or third!) play. Whether you’re a longtime listener or just discovering the pod, this is the perfect opportunity to relive some of the best moments from Already Friends. We’ll be back in January with fresh content, but until then, cozy up, hit play, and enjoy this walk down memory lane with us. Happy holidays, and thank you for being part of our community!  Original Episode Description:  Wow… 100 episodes! We are so thrilled to have met this milestone. We couldn’t have done it without our amazing community of listeners and our support system of close loved ones.  This might be our most wholesome content to date. With it being the 100th episode, we wanted to do something special! With January around the corner, we thought we would give you some ideas and inspiration to take into the new year with a fresh perspective!

No matter who you are, what you do for a living, or where you live - we’re sure some of these will resonate.

    Money vs. Passion, How to Pick Where to Live, and Avoiding Holiday Arguments (Opinionated AF)

    Ep 204: Opinionated AF is a new monthly segment that we added in 2024 where we share our opinions on the internet’s opinions. For added entertainment, we select videos that have gone viral, are hot takes, and / or are a little controversial. In the catch-up segment (0-20 minutes), Ceara shares about some festive holiday activities she’s doing with her loved ones while she’s back in St. Louis this week. She enjoyed a trolley to look at Christmas lights, a cookie decorating night, a comedy show and seeing Wicked. Allison had a quiet introspective week in Tulum, reflecting on all of the changes in her life over the past year. She’s enjoying the solitude and spending time reading, doing pilates and journaling in the garden at her apartment.  During the Opinionated AF segment, we share three videos and discuss them. The first talks about the differences of having a solid stable job versus pursuing income from your passions. The second talks about how cities have different identities and how you should move somewhere that will allow your personality to shine. The third video talks about the futility of engaging in arguments, especially online. We thought this was incredibly important to talk about as the holidays means we’re usually spending time with family members and there are likely going to be differences of opinion but that doesn’t mean you need to argue about it. Instead, we suggest focusing your energy on constructive, expanding and inspiring interactions.

She has now told over 50,000 items and through this, has learned a lot about the industry. Many people have asked her how she learned the industry (just trial and error!), so she decided to make a 25+ page PDF guide "How To Be A Reseller." In this episode, we dive into some of what's included in that guide so listeners can hear some BTS into this industry, gain some thrift tips for themselves and understand the importance of circular fashion.

We emphasize the importance of community, collaboration, and sustainability in the fashion industry, while providing practical advice for aspiring resellers, including sourcing, pricing strategies, and overcoming challenges.  TAKEAWAYS: Moving to a new place can be a big adjustment.It's important to acknowledge and validate your feelings during transitions.Creating a routine can help set you up for success.Reselling can be a fulfilling side hustle or business.Understanding the market and pricing is crucial for reselling.Finding unique inventory is key to a successful reselling business.Mental health is important when navigating life changes.Embracing the journey of entrepreneurship can be rewarding.The evolution of one era of a business leads to the next, and next.The reselling industry is thriving, with a growing customer base.Community collaboration is key in the reselling industry.Pricing strategies are crucial for successful sales.Overcoming initial fears is part of the reselling journey.Market research is essential for many reasons.Allison's guide offers a step-by-step approach to reselling.Sustainable fashion is becoming more popular and accepted.
