    Jul 29 2025

    Send us a text

    Hello hello darlings!

    In this episode Erica Star and Jess get into the brutally honest truths of trauma bonds. They talk about the difference between real friendship and trauma bonds disguised as true friendship.

    The two bring up stories about when they feel they may have actually been the toxic one in the situation, but also what legitimate friendships look and feel like to them now.

    Bottom line: Don't feel guilty for being sucked into a trauma bond and don't villainize the person you had/have a trauma bond with. The lines are extremely blurry.

    The goal is always to grow, learn and use your experiences to help you understand yourself and others. Hope you learned something!

    Hello hello darlings!

    In this episode Erica Star and Taylor let you in on some of their most crash out worthy moments. The crash outs range from friends following your ex on Instagram to obnoxiously loud cars and children who can't walk straight on a sidewalk.

    Disclaimer: The two are very much aware that some of these scenarios are ridiculous while others are beyond valid.

  • Low Maintenance Friendships vs. No Effort: How to Tell The Difference With Erica Star
    Jun 24 2025

    Send us a text

    Hello hello darlings!

    In this episode, Erica Star talks about low maintenance friendships and just how sweet and amazing they are. On the flip side, she also touches on instances where the low maintenance mentality is one-sided and is actually just a "friend" neglecting another. The realization sucks (trust me).

    She talks you through the topic with her own personal stories of true friendship and lack of. This one's a relatable one.
