Jake and Jennie unpack the illusion of “having it all together,” why we go silent or overshare, and the micro-cracks that show up at work. From travel meltdowns and customer-service personas to routines on vacation, feedback landmines, and the surprisingly practical science of crying, this is a grounded, funny, and human conversation about staying real when life asks for performance.
