We’re not gurus. We’re just two grown women with real life experiences and a whole lot of opinions. Our friendship isn’t perfect, but it’s a damn good model of what it looks like when two people actually show up for each other. If you want a conversation between real friends talking about real adult experiences, and you want to feel like you’re part of it, we’re your girls. From friendship wins/fails to career changes, dating after 30, and your body changing while you’re just minding your business… we talk about the real-life stuff the average person deals with when they don’t have celebrity money or resources. We speak our minds. Yes, it’s unfiltered and sometimes offensive. But maybe that’s exactly what you need. Wherever you are in your life, we’ve likely been there too. So come share your story, come laugh with us, get angry with us, cry with us. Do all the things that true friends do. We are your virtual friends. Welcome to A Girls Perspective.

This conversation started with a Reddit story about a man who asks for a “break” from his relationship every single year like it’s a holiday tradition, and somehow spiraled into cheating double standards, emotional manipulation, Ross & Rachel, relationship disrespect, self-worth, and why some people keep wasting years on situations they already know are unhealthy. If you’ve ever struggled with letting somebody go, ignored obvious patterns because you loved someone, dealt with inconsistent people, or wondered why people expect loyalty while giving the bare minimum back, this episode is for you. We also get into: why “breaks” in relationships feel fake emotional cheating vs physical cheating why disrespect hurts more than the actual act why women are way more logical than people give us credit for Friends vs Living Single debates relationship boundaries adult friendships self-esteem and self-worth and one VERY traumatic Halloween costume story A Girls Perspective is a funny, honest, unfiltered podcast about adulthood, friendships, relationships, hot takes, and figuring life out in real time. Two lives. Two perspectives. One unfiltered conversation.
