In this week’s episode, we declare that we’re officially entering our selfish era. We’re talking about why we’re not rushing into kids until we’ve lived the lives we want first, and why settling for just any man isn’t on the table when we genuinely enjoy our own company. From icons like Tracee Ellis Ross and Jennifer Aniston—women who are thriving, hot, and unbothered at 50—we’re breaking down how marriage and children aren’t the sole markers of a fulfilling life. Instead, we’re embracing independence, freedom, and the idea that putting yourself first is not selfish—it’s powerful.
