trying to slow down (kind of)

from Delusional Diaries

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz catch up after a chaotic start to the new year and talk about what it actually looks like to slow down without losing their minds. they unpack travel burnout, the pressure to always be on the move, and the realization that building your entire schedule around workout classes, waitlists, and cancellation fees might not be the healthiest lifestyle choice. from embracing solo gym time to treadmill editing and the ongoing Pilates discourse, the girls share what routines feel sustainable right now, and which ones quietly make life harder than it needs to be.as always, the episode naturally drifts into a classic B**ching Hour™️, covering the annoyances that shouldn’t matter but absolutely do. Halley vents about unnecessary rush fees and timing mishaps, while both girls spiral over delayed luggage, winter trips being impossible to pack for, and the stress of brand travel when your jacket is basically your entire outfit. they also talk about reading podcast comments, dealing with online opinions, and the mental balance of appreciating positive feedback without letting praise, or criticism, get too personal.the episode wraps with nostalgia that you probably will relate to as well, from teenage sleepovers, fake IDs, Four Lokos, and sneaking alcohol to the unmatched joy of girls’ nights before men became the center of everything. they touch on dogs, adoption realities, new hobbies that may or may not last, and the shared delusion that this year is somehow going to be the one. nothing groundbreaking, just a very real, very Halley & Jaz episode.Timestamps 0:40 - Intentional traveling 8:30 - Bitching hour 16:68 - Podcast comment section 33:41 - Jaz’s new hobby 40:15 - Our first drinks 54:46 - What is the most annoying quality anyone could have 56:24 - Hinge prompts See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
