Did you tell your boyfriend about my sex life?

Hi!!!!!

What are we oversharing today?

A viral debate from The Cut has us asking the ultimate friendship question: "Why are you telling your boyfriend about my sex life?" Is sharing everything with your partner a sign of intimacy, or does it make you a bad friend? We're unpacking where we draw the line, plus revealing our 10 unwritten rules of friendship (including a few chosen by YOU!).

Then we dive into the big question: is joy actually a skill you can learn, or does chasing happiness risk slipping into toxic positivity? Plus, we're sharing our favourite ways to bring more whimsy into everyday life. The TikToks we mentioned during this segment are from users ⁠@oliohanian⁠, ⁠@murugimunyi⁠, and ⁠@marthaawalsh⁠.

In this episode, Steph recommended brand Lovaan, and Laura recommended organisational hacks from TikTok user Amy Abode.
