We also chat about the rodeo, the Clutch City Customs grand opening, Disney on ice, and all of our going out moments. Jess & Jess also made a visit for our epic yearly reunion and we wrap it all up with what’s coming next. Full life update with a little bit of everything!! Enjoy!

On today’s episode, we’re diving into a few listener submissions from our Instagram - keeping it light, fun, and a little personal. These shorter episodes are something we’re excited to keep doing, and more in-depth catch-up of what we have been up to coming in the next one. Enjoy!

This week on Beyond The Blonde, we’re getting real, reflective, and a little chaotic (per usual). We dive into our 2026 goals, recapping Jenna’s 25th birthday bash (there were two, of course!) and breaking down our trip to Atlantic City. Enjoy!!

In this episode, we share a quick update on life in Houston and dive into Jenna’s past relationship with a narcissist — the red flags, the recovery, and everything in between.

We're back!! This week Isabella and Jenna recap what they have been up to the last couple of weeks. Isabella returned from her trip, and Jenna discusses her new job. The girls then laugh about a new movie they saw over the weekend that they highly recommend. Finally, they reminisce about their college experience at DePaul University as Jenna is approaching her graduation in June, and they share tips navigating a city school, how to save money, and class recommendations. Adulting is scary, and no one prepares you for your 20's, but they're figuring it out along the way as well and sharing the advice they learned.  

This week Jenna and Isabella discuss all of their most memorable times clubbing and meeting celebrities over the past 4 years. First, they discuss what they've been up to, how pop-up coffee shops aren't worth your time, and plans for Valentine's Day. Take a trip down memory lane with them and listen to their funny stories about celebrities they've met/seen such as Juice Wrld, G-Eazy, Cheat Codes, Swae Lee, Miley Cyrus, Jack Harlow, Louis the Child, ASAP Ferg, Wes Walker, Sheck Wes, Cash Cash, Pauly D, and Niykee Heaton. Hope you had a great week and there won't be an episode next week as Isabella will be out of town, but we will be back the following week!

Happy Friday! This week Jenna and Isabella interviewed The Giving Moon, an indie rock alternative band that their close friends are a part of. While there are four members in the group, they got to interview Sean Seales (Guitar/Vocals/Songwriter) and Ilan Meged (Drums/Backing Vocals) on this episode. Jenna and Isabella have become big fans as they met Sean a few years back and saw their band grow over time. Finally, they got the opportunity to sit down with them and talk about how they started, goals for the future, songwriting, fan encounters, and one of their favorite accomplishments: their appearance on the season finale of Shameless. Their journey is very inspiring and they wish them all the best in their future career as a band. Go show them some love on Spotify and Apple Music, and stay tuned for their upcoming shows and new music in the near future! Instagram & TikTok - @thegivingmoon https://www.thegivingmoon.com

Look forward to some exciting guests and a Vegas recap coming soon!!

Happy New Year!! Jenna and Isabella get very deep with their good friend, Ava, who decided to share her personal experience with an eating disorder and her mental health issues along the way which led her to do a complete 360 with her life. Jenna also shares her personal experience with an eating disorder at a very young age. Together, the girls discuss how to transform your life and overcome the struggles that came along with common issues that people may experience on a daily basis as well as advice on how to have healthy relationships in your life and learning to let go. They hope to bring light to situations that aren't so fun to talk about and put a positive spin on something that can transform you into a better person.  If you think you knew her from CG, no you didn't.

Introducing our roommate, FBI investigator, and mega peeper Alyssa. This week we discuss the principles of what peeping (or cyberstalking) is, the toxicity of it, and how to realize if you are in an unhealthy cycle of doing it by looking at positive reinforcement, the paradox of choice, emotional impermanence, and attachment styles. Isabella, Jenna, and Alyssa share some of their funny experiences peeping and getting caught peeping. We hope you laugh alongside us and feel free to DM us your funniest peeping stories!
