STFU, Women are Talking

HELLO BABES! After a year and a half of changes: new job, new travels, new hobbies, new stories, new age, we are back baby. I thought now was a better time than ever to relaunch the podcast as people need to shut the fuck up and women need to speak again! This season will include new women with new stories and it will also include some of our past guests with updates on their lives and a "part 2? if you will. This episode is an update on me, my crazy thoughts unedited and what is coming in the next months! I am SOOO excited to relaunch this! Let me know what you think :) Cheers!Morgan 

No you all do not understand how much we scream and laugh in this episode!!!!! Sidney is that friend who is always on the go and when you check her location, she is in a different corner of the world. She is full of wonder, adventure, laughs, fun, an amazing time and a great friend. This episode was recorded on the terrace of our hotel in Paris where Sidney and I stayed for the weekend- and we had the time of our lives. In this episode, Sidney and I talk about all of life's most fun and heartbreaking things: traveling the world as a solo woman, friend breakups and how they are harder than romantic break ups, high school, Sidney becoming a doctor and how men who have wives should stop messaging us on instagram. I hope you all enjoy this one as much as we enjoyed sipping champagne and gabbing on the terrace in Paris <3 Love you Sid!!!!

In July of 2020, Matt and I’s San Francisco apartment burned down in the middle of the night while we were in it. My best friend, Makayla was visiting us at the time and she unfortunately was in the apartment with us. We lost everything we owned. We obviously survived but with the survival came a lot of PTSD, trauma, confusion, anger, fear, sadness, anxiety, paranoia, gratefulness and healing. It is almost 5 years later where I feel like I am finally in a good place to share this story. In these 5 years of growth and healing, I could not be more proud of Matt, Makayla and myself. Every day is different but from where I am now from five years ago is like night and day. I simply would not be where I am today without the constant love, support and resources from my family, best friends, coworkers, complete strangers and the Red Cross. This podcast episode is with Makayla and I as we share the story of the San Francisco fire. We cope with humor, therapy, alcohol & each other. We tell the story of the fire that night, the days following, how we all three coped with the trauma, how you can support people in home fires, how you need to check your fucking fire alarms right now and some giggles in between. If you or anyone you know has experienced a home fire, please use Red Cross Home Fire campaign as a resource. Please also feel free to use me as a resource to talk, for donations, for any type of support. Unfortunately when really bad things and trauma happens, we can’t do it alone <3
