This week we're asking a serious question: are men okay? From dates that failed miserably, to encounters that were downright unsettling, we're sharing our experiences navigating today's questionable dating pool. Along the way, we explore how unprocessed male trauma and entitlement often show up- and how it can impact women in both small and significant ways.

Whether it's bizarre behavior, inappropriate advances, or so called "mentors" who turned out to be predators, these stories highlight why meeting people can feel so complicated. Between dodged kisses, unsolicited guitar performances, and more than a few red flags...it's going to be a wild ride.

What's it really like to pack up your life and start fresh in a new (and very big) city? In this week's episode, we're sharing our own journey- from the apartment hunt to learning a city's quirks- we've lived through it all.

We'll talk about the adjustment period no one warns you about, what it takes to find your people, become financially independent, and eventually fall in love with a city you once found overwhelming.

Plus, you'll hear stories about a reincarnated subway dog, a cookout in the park, and getting stranded on the highway in the pouring rain.

Drink of the Week: Blood Orange Tea ( from Trader Joe's, of course)

Welcome to the very first episode of Take it Home! Come on in and get cozy. In this inaugural episode, we're introducing ourselves, pulling back the curtain on why we started this podcast, and sharing our intentions and hopes for this new space of ours. We dive into stories from our nearly decade long friendship, including how traveling across the country in a jeep for a month made us realize we could actually live together. One of us is currently learning how life's difficult moments become the catalyst for a newfound wave of creativity if you let them... and the other had a run in with her comedy idols, leaving her feeling truly starstruck for the first time.

Sip of the week: Dirty Martini
