• 3 Way Pod Takeover: Catching Up & Single Girl Luck
    Apr 30 2026

    #244. 3 Way Pod is taking over Note to Self in this chatty episode for the girls. Kristen is sharing how to manifest abundance and stay lucky (hint: it’s removing men from your life), Emon is asking very Emon questions, and the girls descend into chaos by the end of the episode (probably from the many beverages consumed before and during recording). Happy 3 Way day!

  • Going Back to School in my 30s, Getting Out of a Bad Luck Spiral, & Answering Listener Questions
    Apr 23 2026

    #243. I’m going back to school! In this episode, we are discussing my choice to go back to school in my early 30s– the why, the what, the what happens next, and what to do when you find yourself in an era of bad luck. Consider this a bit of a life update and release of the negative energy I’ve been accidentally absorbing for the last 2 weeks. It’s a spoken evil eye of sorts. Then, we’re answering listener questions from recent Instagram Q&As. Overall, a very chatty, girly episode.

  • From the Trenches: Becoming the Best Version of Yourself with Alexa Jay
    Apr 16 2026

    #242. This week I’m sitting down with my friend Alexa for an honest conversation about what it actually takes to transform your life. Alexa shares how losing her grandfather sent her into one of the darkest periods of her life — and how she came out the other side genuinely the best version of herself.

    We get into body positivity, manifestation, and what the process of rebuilding really looks like when you’re starting from the bottom.

  • The Art of Curation: Build a Life That’s Unmistakably Yours
    Apr 2 2026

    #240. Curation gets talked about like it's an aesthetic practice — a considered wardrobe, a beautiful home, a feed that looks a certain way. But the version I have been sitting with lately goes deeper than that. In this episode, I make the case that a truly curated life isn't built for presentation; it's built for self-knowledge. The things you keep, the rituals you protect, the choices you make when no one is watching — they aren't a mood board. They’re part of a larger portrait. This is about learning to tell the difference, and how fun life can become when you do.

  • ASK P: On Love, Friendship, and Over-Analyzing vs. Self-Trust
    Mar 26 2026

    #239. We've been handed every framework imaginable for navigating love — the checklists, the red flags, the attachment style deep dives. And somehow we're still confused. Because the problem was never information. It was nerve. This week on Ask P, we're getting into the questions you actually sent — two crushes in the same friend group, holding your standards after a great relationship ends, rebuilding trust after a breakup, the name change debate, and how to show up for a friend who keeps choosing someone wrong for her. This one is for every woman who already knows the answer and just needs permission to trust it.

  • You’re Invited to My Wedding Weekend: Recap, Favorite Things, Regrets, & More
    Mar 12 2026

    #237. YOU’RE INVITED. Because I’ve documented my love life on NTS since my now-husband and I met– from our early dating days, to moving in together & baseball craziness, to breaking up and not speaking for a year (lol), to getting back together and now tying the knot– it feels right to walk you through our wedding weekend in vivid detail. As usual, I’m getting extremely candid about my experience planning, pre-wedding prep, what went right (& what went wrong) on our wedding day, and the early days of marriage. Thank you for being here to witness our little love story! We love you. xx
