The future of TWES is unclear, and today, I'm sharing all my thoughts on why. I promise this isn't a pity party episode—it's actually really fun and recaps a wonderful week and weekend, dives into Deli Dan a la Queer Eye, and then I share my reasoning on why my efforts may best be used elsewhere besides this podcast. I think I make some strong points, so tune in and if you want to reach out to me with your own thoughts, you know where to find me!Follow TWES on Instagram // Subscribed

We're back this week with MORE voicemail vents from fellow listeners. From the audacity of strangers to ask when you're due (when you're NOT due) and dating being the worst, to being enraged by constant reposts on Instagram and not getting the raise you were promised, there's tons of cathartic venting happening on today's episode. Emma also shares some of her latest adventures with getting her eyes dilated, re-discovering delicious Dallas restaurants, minor injuries, and what The

After a little break, Emma is back on the mic to talk about what the hell she’s been doing (celebrations, meet-ups, family visits) and what she’s reading/watching/listening to (Seth Rogen’s new memoir, a few bad movies, and one incredible podcast). She also introduces the first ever Voicemail Vent Session, playing listener voicemails from the podcast hotline (214-799-1252) and reacting to all your stories about shitty friends, shitty coworkers, and generally shitty people,

2023/04/13

Family is great and so is having a life-long romantic partner, but friends do so much of the heavy lifting throughout our lives so who we choose to remain close with means A LOT. That said, people are complex by nature and evolve overtime, so friendships that ebb and flow are just a part of life. In today's episode, Emma chats about the roles friends play in your life, how to navigate shifts in the friendship, when it's time to "break up" with a toxic friend or just let it fizzle,

On Tuesday 4/4, Emma turned 36 and decided there was no better way to spend the day than with her best friend (Whitney) and her one month old (August) as they recapped their experience at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert. Whitney is a Swiftie and has seen her three times in concert, whereas Emma is more Swiftie adjacent and this was her first time seeing her live, and they both have thoughts. Tune in to listen to two 30something millennials talk all things Taylor Swift, new motherhood, loud shows,

I met Stephanie Geddie my freshman year of college at the University of Kansas, and we've been friends ever since. Geddie is our smartest friend (we've discussed this—I'm not offending anyone by stating this fact) who decided to do a 180º with her career, going from marketing to the healthcare field as an ER nurse. In this episode, Geddie shares how she realized she was in the wrong field in her late 20s, and how she pressed the reset button to get to where she is today. It's a bad

2023/03/23

This week, sparked by a listener email, Emma gets on the mic to share some long suppressed thoughts about the wide world of influencing and who she refers to as "new age influencers." She offers her POV on the de-influencing trend, how some influencers are bastardizing and capitalizing from it, toxic vulnerability, and a lot more that she's been keeping a cap on for years. She also talks about how good the Moulin Rouge musical is, shares a few TV recs, and shares some super edgy, fun news that

"Intentions mean nothing without action." This is the hard-won lesson Emma's had to learn and re-learn over the last few years when it comes to diet and exercise and, on today's episode, she's (power)walking you through it all from her POV. It all started in 2019 when she hired her personal trainer, Meg Morat, and it's been a rollercoaster ever since. In this episode, she's sharing the details about her weekly regime assigned by Meg, her commitment to re-dedicate herself to it at the start of this

Today's episode is *actually* a short one. Emma is tired as hell, so she's keeping things much more brief than usual with a quick recap of her trip to Cabo last weekend and downloads on what she's reading, watching, and listening to including The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, The Murdaugh Murders, The Last of Us Podcast + this incredible YouTube channel comparing the show and the game, and The Witch Trials of JK Rowling podcast.

Kelley and Emma give a bit of their backstory, and Kelley explains her career journey, what makes a bad manager versus a good manager, being a powerful woman amongst male colleagues, and her undying love for Ludacris.

I'm not a book podcast, we know this. But I have gotten back into readingin a big way this year, so I figured it'd be fun to attempt a Book of the Month situation on the podcast. Unclear if we'll do it again, but hey—can't say we didn't attempt it. Besides reviewing Carrie Soto Is Back with my mom at the end of the episode, I speak to going "paid" with my newsletter last week and the "why" behind it all, tell you what the hell I've been doing lately, talk about some shows we're loving and finishing

Valentine's may be one day, but Emma is capitalizing on the theme this month by making the next few episodes about love, dating, and relationships. To kick it off, Emma dug back through her blog archives to a post from 2017 titled "36 Of The Most WTF Things Men Have Said To Me," and in today's episode, she's reading it out loud for all to hear. You won't believe your ears, and that's kind of the point; sometimes, you have to kiss a lot of wastes of human life to find your Z. Emma ends the episode

Emma takes a sharp left turn in her weekly content this week by having a conversation about money with her financial coach, Cory Nichols. Cory isn't your run-of-the-mill financial advisor—he's a money guy who believes that everyone should strive for "average," that there's a time to save and a time to spend, and who has a lot of thoughts on crypto and Dave Ramsey. In this episode, Emma gives her typical weekly recap (including some discussion around PMDD), announces the first "book of the month" for

Today's episode is long overdue. For the last (almost) four years, Emma has been working with personal trainer and nutritionist Meg Morat. Not only has Emma learned so much about diet, exercise, and everything in between, but her and Meg have formed a friendship, too (Meg was at the wedding!). In this episode, you'll hear Emma's usual WTHIBD (What The Hell I've Been Doing) + RWL (Reading, Watching, Listening), and then a full hour with Meg that covers a bunch of listener-submitted questions but far

In today's solo episode, Emma talks about last week's downward spiral into jealousy, imposter syndrome, and self doubt but all with an air of brevity. She hadn't had a spiral like this in so long, she really wanted to capitalize on it because what else is it if not content? Emma also chit chats about life lately, offers a few book and movie reviews, and remembers how incredible the show Fleabag is as her and her husband are rewatching it.

Big, lofty New Year's resolutions are for the birds. Smaller, more specific resolves though? Those are great. For the first episode of 2023, I'm sharing my own personal resolves for the new year, including learning how to do a cat eye, carrying a book and small notebook with me everywhere I go, commenting more on Instagram, honing in my nutrition, and being even MORE unapologetically myself. I also recap my "winter break," and review a bunch of shows and movies including White Lotus, Babylon, The

Opinions are like assholes—we all have one...or several. I'm bringing back a series favorite for the last episode of 2022: UNPOPULAR OPINIONS. Listeners had A LOT of thoughts, including but absolutely NOT limited to: Michael Bublé, Crumbl cookies, carbonated water, pregnancy kind of sucking, pedicures with friends, Colleen Hoover books, top sheets, ketchup, Nutella, avocado, and someone even came for chocolate chip cookies (audible gasp). Tune to listen and argue with these hot takes, PLUS hear my
