How Scarcity Steals Your Authenticity

When money gets tight, scarcity doesn't just affect your bank account. It affects who you are. In this episode I'm talking about how survival mode quietly steals your authenticity, why it's not just an unemployment problem, and a couple of things that have actually helped me lately. No neat solutions, just an honest conversation about trying to hold onto yourself when your circumstances are pushing back.

Finding Meaning in the Cards

In this episode of girl vs life, I talk about how I got into tarot cards and what they actually mean to me. From growing up thinking tarot was taboo, to getting curious, I share a brief history of tarot, how the cards are structured, and why symbolism and artwork are such a big part of the appeal. I also talk about how I use tarot today, including today’s card, and how it reflects where I’m at. This isn’t about predicting the future or belief. It’s about curiosity, reflection, and finding meaning in small rituals.

When Stories Feel Familiar

This episode started as a plan to talk about my love for Star Wars, but it quickly became something deeper. As I recorded, I found myself thinking about the moment we’re living in, why certain stories feel familiar, and how fear, power, and belief shape the way people see the world. This isn’t a political breakdown or a search for answers. It’s a quiet, reflective conversation about stories as mirrors, living through uncertainty, and choosing how we show up when things aren’t clear.

From Fandom to Friendship

Fandom is often brushed off as something trivial, but sometimes it becomes the starting point for real connection. In this episode of girl vs life, I’m joined by my longtime long-distance friend Stephanie to talk about how we met through fandom and how that shared love turned into a genuine friendship. We connected years ago online through our love of Star Wars, Marvel, and being fans of Tom Hiddleston, and over time, that connection grew into something deeper and more lasting. We talk about what fandom gave us back then, how our relationship with it has changed as we’ve gotten older, and why watching shows like The Night Manager together now still feels meaningful. This isn’t about celebrity obsession. It’s about shared joy, community, and how liking the same things can quietly bring people together in real ways.

The Season No One Warns You About

There’s a season of life that no one really warns you about. It’s long, often quiet, and can change how your body, emotions, and sense of self show up day to day. In this episode of girl vs life, I share my personal experience living through this kind of internal shift, what surprised me, what’s been hard, and what’s helped. This isn’t a medical conversation. It’s a human one, meant for anyone navigating change and for the people who care about them and want to understand how to show up with more compassion.

Inspired by AHS: Cult, the Allison After NXIVM podcast, and my own past experiences, this episode explores why we join things, how groups pull us in, and where the line is between community and control. A curious, non-political look at belonging and the BITE model.
