Friendship without flirtation? Revolutionary, apparently. In this week’s episode, Robin and Deborah dive into Platonic — the millennial masterpiece that finally proves men and women can be friends without the Ross-and-Rachel tension. They unpack why Platonic hits so close to home for every adult still figuring out who they are, even after “having it all.”

We explore:

• Why Platonic is the millennial friendship mirror we didn’t know we needed
• Emotional labor, codependency, and why Sylvia’s burnout feels too real
• How the show nails the “midlife adolescence” so many of us quietly feel

It’s raw, funny, and just the right amount of existential.

You’re killing it on the outside — promotions, plans, polished vibes — but inside, you’re whispering lies like “I’m fine” and “I can handle it alone.”

We’ll explore:

• Why “functioning” doesn’t mean “fixed”
• The busy badge, the isolation trap, and the superwoman myth
• Scripts to challenge these lies in real time
• How friendship can be the mirror that shatters the illusion
