This is what you get when two Canadian women, who come from completely different backgrounds, serendipitously meet in a Brooklyn apartment. Alene Degian and Kristen Mandala became instant friends over their mutual sense of adventure, humour and tearing up the dance floor, which has since blossomed into a five year long friendship. Tune in every week as we have candid conversations about what we *thought* life would be like in our late 20s, and how our unique worldviews help us navigate all things personal, sexual, and professional.

Let's talk BODY HAIR! It seems like most people have a pretty big love/hate relationship with it. In this episode, we're talking all about our relationship with body hair and whether it’s changed through the years. When did we first start waxing or shaving? How do we feel about it now? And if you've ever gotten waxed, we’re sure you’ll relate to some of the horror stories we’ve experienced along the way.

“I just get along better with boys.” “Girls are too much drama.” If you’ve ever heard these words said or even said them yourself, you’re not alone. Speaking purely in cis-normative terms, why did we think boys were cooler? Where do these beliefs come from? In this episode, we talk about how we ‘used to’ think this way and how our perspectives have changed over time!

Throughout the podcast, we’ll often say we’re “different” from each other so for the first episode we thought we’d explain what we mean. Our culture/family backgrounds played a huge part in how we’ve experienced life. So how did someone who wasn’t even allowed a sleepover at 16 became friends with someone who travelled alone to Kenya at 16?We’re more alike than you think!
