Blunt Commentary: Love Is Blind S6 ft. Lisa Gilmore
EP84: Like most BFFs right now, my friend Lisa and are getting down and dirty discussing the most recent season of Love is Blind. We're sipping wine to get the convo flowing, and we're ready to unpack all the unhinged behavior from this season.
Let me give you a sneak peek of our unfiltered opinions: Trevor is just seeking fame and attention, Chelsea is not exactly a Megan Fox lookalike (no offense), Johnny seems to be clueless about protection (but we hope he figures it out for Amy's sake), Sarah Ann and Jeremy are the worst, and someone needs to check on Matthew (although AD might be doing that post-show). As for Clay, he's either a weak man or a work in progress (but he needs to step it up).
We have a lot more to say and trust me, you don't want to miss it. Our final question is for all of you: Is love blind? Grab a drink, sit back, and join us as we laugh, vent, and spill all the tea on Love is Blind. It's a wild ride, and we're here for it.
Episode highlights…
Would you do reality TV just to get famous?
Jimmy’s disappointment with Chelsea
Breaking down Jimmy’s lack of contraceptive knowledge
Why we are huge fans of Jessica
Sarah Ann’s and her problematic behavior
Brittany and Kenneth are boring
Unpacking Matthew
AD dating Matthew after the show
Weak men and men in progress (We are talking about you, Clay)
Is love really blind?

So, grab your pen and paper as I share 22 girl code rules to live by. Oh, and if you only leave this episode with one piece of advice… PLEASE don’t be the friend that “ex-hops.” It’s not cute.

Become the Hottest You've Ever Been: Glow-Up Tips That Actually Work
EP80: Grow up and glow up! In this episode, I am talking about (literally) everything to help you level up your life. Hair, nails, skin, sleep, makeup, wardrobe, meditation, daily habits, and working out, are a few of the many topics I am covering. I know my Boujee Besties always strive to be the best versions of themselves. But, there is always room for improvement. After all, we are always a work in progress.
When you hear the word “glow up” what comes to mind? When I think of the word, I think about someone becoming a more confident and hotter version of themselves. Glow ups are both internal and external. It’s not always just about looks. The true glow up starts from within. I know that social media puts pressure on us to be fit, have perfect skin and hair, and that everything has to be fabulous. But in reality, what matters most, is how YOU feel. So take out your pen and paper and start taking notes, because I am giving you every tip and trick to glowing up.

Deprogramming yourself
Glow Ups are internal
Nails and hand care
Taking care of your hair
My skincare routine
Cleaning up your wardrobe
Learning how to do your makeup
Small things you can change in your life that go a long way
