Listen "Discipline and Delusion"
Episode Synopsis
Season two starts exactly how it should — reflective, chaotic, and honest, with zero pressure to reinvent ourselves overnight.
This week, Sheyda, Madeline, and Summer ease into the new year by talking about alignment over rebranding, discipline over motivation, and why the little choices matter way more than the dramatic ones. From nostalgia (iPods, Buffy, and early 2000s TV) to identity shifts, style eras, gym routines, and confidence, the girls unpack what it actually looks like to become more yourself instead of someone new.
They talk about shedding insecure versions, trusting yourself again, choosing authenticity in everything from clothing to careers, and why motivation is fleeting but discipline sticks. There’s real talk about fitness journeys, body image, long-term habits, speaking less and meaning more, and the red flags they’re leaving behind this year — personally, socially, and emotionally.
It’s thoughtful, funny, a little woo-woo, and very grounding — like a reset that doesn’t require a personality overhaul.
Grab a drink, get cozy, and welcome to season two energy.
