It’s confusing, a little chaotic… but also kind of exciting.Welcome to the newest cohort of grads. <3

Vibes are Off, Let's Discuss
I hope this finds you well… because the vibes? Questionable.This week we’re unpacking everything feeling slightly off, from chaotic social media moments to why it’s almost summer but somehow still feels like February. Then, we get into how to reset: choosing yourself, saying what you need to say, and taking a break from what’s not working (yes, including dating apps).A little unhinged, a little honest, and straight from my brain to yours.

Becky With the Good Hair!
Today, Bex and I reminisce on our friendship timeline, starting with how we became friends back in 7th grade: middle school chaos, BBYO, me thinking she was weird (I was too), and the revelation that she was actually friends with Sami first. Then we fast-forward to college lore- AEPhi, Bex being Chabad president, and how her major somehow led to a real adult career. We finish strong with babbling and a 'From the Notes App' segment featuring a research project from the height of the Covid pandemic, because no one is doing it like that.

Ummm... What Now?
In this episode, I recap the absolute chaos of my week, starting with finals. I took a 7 AM Harry Potter exam, checked my grades, and somehow managed to embarrass myself asking about cum laude. Then I get into Hanukkah and the struggle of finding cute, thoughtful gifts without going broke. And of course, I give an update on the job search… which right now looks like same-day rejections... lol. This episode is a rollercoaster, so strap in!

It's Giving Thanks.
This week, I’m recapping the full Thanksgiving spiral- from the pre-holiday scramble (late-night drives, nonstop cooking, and someone losing it over name cards) to the main-event madness of yearly t-shirts, moist turkey, and unhinged family energy. Then it’s straight into the post-Thanksgiving rush: finals, moving out, Hanukkah prep, and Black Friday temptations. Plus a From the Notes App gem: “I love it when Duke Dukes.” Holiday chaos at its finest.

Too Much? Probably.
This week, I’m sorting through all the ways I’ve been doing the absolute most: panic-ordering semi-formal dresses, stress-cleaning like it’s a sport, and planning my entire future in a Google Sheet. I unravel my latest emotional breakdown (yes, I cried over The Maze Runner AND graduation), recap the unhinged energy I brought to Senior Bar Night, and read a Notes App submission about romanticizing your life in the smallest ways. We wrap up with a reminder that being “too much” is actually kind of powerful. Emotional gangster energy FTW.

Greek life, senioritis, and doing way too much for everyone else. Plus, a new side quest: DJ Alz. After DJing at our philanthropy event, someone told me I was “throwing down beats,” which is apparently a good thing?

This week on I Hope This Finds You Well, I’m sitting down with my sister to discuss her first (and current) job out of college, what post-grad life actually looks like, and how manifestation plays a role in figuring it all out.

Too Good to be True
This week on I Hope This Finds You Well, we’re covering everything from tailgate weekends and campus run-ins to the wild world of online scams. Between fake brand deals, AI job interviews, and emails from “hiring managers” who definitely don’t exist, I’m unpacking how to spot the red flags (and sharing the story of the time I actually got my identity stolen at camp. Yep).For this week’s spiral, I’m asking the real question: why do only the scam companies want me, and how do I actually get my name in front of real people?

Soft Launch Era
No, this isn’t about relationships. It’s about the little things you can start doing now to make post-grad life a little less scary and a lot more manageable. In this episode of I Hope This Finds You Well, I’m sharing the habits that help me feel more grounded as I near graduation: from finding stress relief at the gym to learning that cooking is not only cheaper than eating out but also way more fun when you’ve got a kitchen. Plus, I’ll give you some of my favorite go-to recipes that carried me through this past summer, in my housewife era.Then, we’re diving into therapy: the lessons I’ve learned, why it’s for everyone, and how having an unbiased outlet can shift the way you see yourself, your friendships, and your future.And of course, we’ll wrap up with this week’s spiral: why I seriously cannot move in silence (p.s., it has a lot to do with Greek life and the fact that my mom is basically my best friend).
