On this episode of the podcast, I sit down with my sister-in-law Carra to walk through her recent life updates. We talk candidly about navigating a difficult breakup, beginning therapy, the small joys that help us cope—like finding the perfect almond croissant—and what using dating apps in 2023 really feels like.
We cover how recovery after a breakup rarely follows a straight path, why therapy has become an essential and normal part of many people’s healing process, and practical steps Carra found helpful as she rebuilt daily routines and boundaries. The conversation also includes lighter moments: the little rituals and indulgences that bring comfort, the hunt for a truly great pastry, and how food memories can anchor us when other parts of life feel uncertain.
We also dig into dating culture in 2023—what’s changed, what feels the same, and what advice Carra has for anyone re-entering the dating scene. From profile-writing tips to setting intentions before swiping, we aim to balance humor with realism and encourage listeners to prioritize safety, clarity, and self-respect.
