A conversation about the myth of having it together—how adulthood reshapes identity, ambition, and self-worth. Jessica and Monet explore comparison, responsibility, money, and what success looks like when it finally feels like yours.

What if your next level isn’t about pushing harder… but protecting your energy differently? In this episode we’re exploring the sneaky energetic leaks and the environments that shift your mood instantly.

Friendship in your 30s looks different and that doesn’t mean anything’s gone wrong. In this episode, we talk honestly about how friendships evolve as life fills up with marriages, careers, kids, distance, and changing priorities. We unpack the quiet grief of friendships that fade, the beauty of deeper (but fewer) connections, and the pressure we put on ourselves to “do friendship right.”This is a conversation about letting go of comparison, releasing unrealistic expectations, and redefining what closeness actually means in this season of life.If this resonates, we’re unpacking it together—honestly, gently, and without judgment.

This week, we dive into the psychology behind holiday indulgence—why we crave more, buy more, and chase the “perfect” December. We talk identity shopping, emotional spending, curated holiday aesthetics, and what intentional purchasing actually looks like in a world built on overconsumption. Some advice, more curiosity.

On this mini episode, we’re slipping into the origins of All Hallows’ Eve — the night that became Halloween. From ancient Celtic rituals to Catholic rebrands, immigrant folklore, and America’s obsession with candy, we trace how a festival about the thinning veil turned into the culture-shaping holiday we know today. Consider this your brief reprieve: a stylish little history lesson for the spookiest night of the year.

In this episode, we trace the origins of astrology and explore how our own signs show up in love, in life, and in the way we see ourselves. Because maybe the stars don’t just predict the future, they reflect who we already are.

Before branding and influencer culture, beauty was already global. It crossed empires, oceans, and class — passed from hand to hand like silk and gold. In this episode, we travel through history’s most iconic materials and the women, artists, and empires who turned beauty into power. This is the story of The Silk Roads.

In this haunting episode of Also Radio, we unpack the deadly side of historical fashion: the arsenic-laced gowns that poisoned their wearers, the crinoline skirts that turned dance floors into infernos, the corsets that crushed lungs in the name of refinement, and the hatmakers who slowly went mad from mercury fumes.It’s the intersection of elegance and tragedy — where glamour became a ghost story and every garment had a body count.

This week, we're recapping our trip to San Miguel for our best friends’ wedding—a celebration filled with joy, late nights, and unforgettable moments. Between the dancing, the rooftop views, and all the little in-between memories, it felt like a trip we’ll carry with us forever. I also share how the week inspired me to lean into a more organic, authentic approach with my style—letting comfort and ease guide the way while still keeping it elevated.

Superstitions are everywhere — woven into culture, family traditions, and even the little rituals we don’t think twice about. In this episode, we dig into some of the most common beliefs and share why I don’t really buy into superstition at all. For me, it’s less about knocking on wood and more about karma — the idea that how you show up in the world circles back to you.

We’re told to follow trends, but real style starts when you stop copying and start noticing what feels like you. This week’s episode unpacks how to: – spot the patterns in your own closet – experiment without the pressure of perfection – refine your “uniform” so getting dressed feels effortless – let style evolve with every season of lifeBecause personal style isn’t something you buy—it’s something you build.

Today we’re talking about rest, the art of slowness, and why it feels so hard to just be when the world is always telling us to do more.
