What does a drawer full of old underwear have to do with your emotional blind spots? More than you'd think. 

This week, Caroline and Eva tackle spring cleaning — and quickly realize that it's a perfect metaphor for everything: your closet, your relationships, your mindset, and yes, your lingerie situation. 

They dig into construal level theory (why it's easier to give advice than take it), the Jewish concept of Seder and order, Marie Kondo's fatal flaw, road rage, meditation, grounding yourself in nature, and why the best perspective sometimes comes from your friend ruthlessly going through your underwear drawer. 

Word of the Week: Winnow.

We’re two New York City women talking candidly about the chaos of modern life, from relationships, parenting, working in and out of the home, to what it takes to stay semi-sane in a world that expects you to hold it all together and be #blessed.

We couldn’t find an honest and vulnerable conversation — so we started one! If you need a laugh, a cry, or just want to hear someone else admit their flaws and validate your crazy, you’re in the right place. Be ready to be… Unfiltered, Unafraid, and UnExpert.
