In this episode, Calyx and Oshae reflect on how their style has evolved to what it is today.  Getting the first taste of finding your style as kids, learning what it really means to "pop out" in a cute fit in college, and finally making money post grad to buy what you want were all important moments on the fashion journey.

    You’re the Reason You’re Still Single

    Okay ladies, it’s time to have a serious discussion. Yes, the dating pool is terrible and yes, there are a few bad apples in the bunch,  but have you ever stopped to consider that you also play a role in why you’re still single? Unfortunately, there isn’t a perfect guide for dating in your 20s to ensure you find “the one” but there are many tools available to guide you on doing the inner work so that you are prepared when they show up! One of those tools being Jay Shetty’s self-help book, ‘8 Rules of Love: How to Find It, Keep It, and Let it Go.’ In this episode, Calyx and Oshae unpack Shetty’s tips and dive into the beauty and importance of solitude.  Actively making the time to do things alone can provide a new perspective on your singleness and allow you to better know yourself. Whether you’re in a relationship or a season of solitude you must get to know you because if you don’t love yourself how the hell are you going to love someone else?

    New Year, Still Broke

    It might be a new year but the girls are still broke! All young adults know the struggle of trying to make ends meet while still living your best life and Calyx and Oshae are no different. The good news is that although saving your funds can sometimes feel impossible, changing small spending habits can go a long way. As the ladies discuss subways vs. Ubers, pre-games vs. bar hopping, and sitting down somewhere vs. going out every weekend - stacking up your money feels a little more doable.  The new year is always a good time for a fresh start, so cheers to smarter spending habits and new beginnings in 2024!  Do you have any questions or need advice about careers, dating, adulting, etc?

    Are the Holidays Happy?

    Let’s get into the holidays. When you think about it, are they really happy? As early twenty-somethings visiting home this season, Oshae and Calyx discuss how this stereotypically “joyous” time can actually prove to be more difficult than some might think. Between navigating new normals with your parents as a new-found adult, demystifying the eldest daughter trope, managing seasonal depression, and missing the peace and tranquility of your own apartment, the two talk about it all. Perhaps it’s time for us to ditch the holidays as we once knew it and start our own traditions? Adulting is very ghetto might we add.  Do you have any questions or need advice about careers, dating, adulting, etc? Click this link to share anonymously!

    Day Twos

    In this episode of Aunties in Training, Oshae and Calyx discuss the real behind real friendships. We often show love to our day ones, those ride-or-dies who’ve been there since diapers and the sandbox, but we seldomly acknowledge the importance of those friends who we meet later in life: our day twos. Those people that you meet post-college, as you’re navigating life in your twenties, who you’ve grown to not know how to live without. From the sandbox to adulthood, we’re getting into the layers of friendship.
