Kiki Said So and Medinah Monroe are back in the studio catching up on everything from dating guilt to setting boundaries with moms, lovers, and LinkedIn connects. This episode is peak grown woman era — reflective, funny, and real.

The ladies talk about embracing the freedom of dating multiple people without shame, learning when to speak up (even to family), and why being “too nice” might just be messing up your love life.You’ll also hear about Medinah’s Meals on Wheels volunteer birthday, her gala honor, and her new Lover Girl Retreat in Thailand — plus Kiki’s new collab, her take on the “Winter Arc” trend, and why LinkedIn just became her new favorite social app.

They close it out with reflections on reading more, healing from burnout, and what it means to stay authentic when life gets messy.Cocktail of the Week: Unruly — just champagne, because we’re celebrating making it through another week.
