In today’s episode, we chat about Sammy’s recent road trip (deep convos, country playlists, and late-night drives included) and break down the difference between a vacation and a trip—because yes, there’s a big difference. Sammy shares a vulnerable update on her IUI journey and the emotional transition into IVF, while Chelsey opens up about a recent mental health backslide and the importance of becoming your own best friend. We talk manifesting, burnout, agency, tampon rangers, and why this summer is all about reclaiming joy, softness, and sanity.
