you need cardio, subway takes, a huge creator's passive aggressive meltdown & high self-esteem | ep. 47
<p>We get into why cardio still matters even if your main focus is lifting weights, and why so many people skip it without realising what they're missing. Then we unpack a hot take from Subway Takes about uh…hands.</p><p><br></p><p>We also talk about a huge creator with over a million followers who lashed out in the most passive aggressive way possible after a much smaller creator critiqued their wedding flowers. It's a wild example of how people can package cruelty as moral superiority.</p><p><br></p><p>The back half of the episode is all about self-esteem: how to actually build it and what to do when you run into people who try to cut you down. It's an honest look at confidence, criticism, and protecting your sense of self when someone's actively trying to shrink it.</p><p><br></p><p>🎙️ Fingers Crossed is a female friendship podcast with honest chats about mental health and life, hosted by Erica and Megs.</p><p><br></p><p>📩 email us your thoughts: <a href="mailto:fingerscrossedthepodcast@gmail.com"><strong>fingerscrossedthepodcast@gmail.com</strong></a></p><p><br></p><p>chapters:</p><p>00:00 intro</p><p>01:10 cardio importance</p><p>05:27 subway takes: hands debate</p><p>14:41 big creators lashing out</p><p>24:01 high self-esteem and the experience of it</p><p>43:31 outro</p>
