303 | you asked, we gave our advice

from Couple Things with Shawn and Andrew · host Shawn Johnson + Andrew East

Four years ago, we recorded an episode built entirely around questions from our community- real questions from you, and our unfiltered advice in response! It ended up being one of our most-loved episodes, and listening back, it still feels just as relevant today. We’re bringing it back because the core of it hasn’t changed: people are still figuring things out, still asking the same kinds of questions, and still looking for honest, thoughtful advice. There’s something special about revisiting where we were, what we said, and seeing how it all holds up now. Whether you were there the first time or you’re hearing it for the first time now, we hope you enjoy this throwback episode and maybe even find a few answers you didn’t know you needed. Love you guys! If you haven’t tried the SKIMS Everyday Cotton collection yet, it’s definitely worth checking out.
