Sad or So Sad

What we've been up to, products and items were loving (and not loving), and tax season... joins us on this episode for a chaotic catch up!

Working out is so personal. However, that doesn't take away from the fact that you likely have a specific type of person in mind when you think of boutique classes and large group fitness names. On this episode-- after we finish catching up-- we talk about all the workout classes, how we feel about them, and what they say about you. 

Have you been told you’re high maintenance? And they think it’s maybe an insult? Well, in this episode, we’re reframing that- you’re high maintenance to be low maintenance.

While we are so happy to be back for episode 3, we are SO SAD that our conversation centered around the closing of all Foxtrot stores. The news just did not feel real, so we had to unpack it with y'all as soon as possible. Berkley also shares a few anecdotes from the last few days. We're so happy to be chatting with you. We just have one question: is it sad or so sad that Foxtrot is no longer?

Today we walk through our recent restaurant favs, Sephora sale must haves and a new shoe trend that we have differing opinions on. 

Welcome to Sad or So Sad! A podcast where you get to be a fly on the wall. We decided that it was time to start recording our everyday discussions because some are just too good not to share. We have hot takes, and we aren't fluent on editing just yet, so you are getting the raw versions of us. We're just a group of three friends chatting and we are so excited to have you join us.
