  • Ep. 54 | The Lemonade Stand
    Nov 20 2025

    It's the season 3 finale!

    Today's episode is based off of a life retrospective I'm doing, particularly about my 20s. I share my plans for upcoming content on my other platforms before diving into two topics: emotional maturity and the truth behind FOMO. First, I dive into what makes someone mature - and it's not their age or life experiences. Next, I share what the harsh empty truth behind having FOMO. Lastly, I talk about how how to shift your mindset during conflict from victim mentality to iterating for better outcome for yourself.

    Thank you all so much for tuning in! I will be back sometime Q1 2026 with season 4. Until then, bisou bisou...

    It's a me, Erica!

    Let's catch up on life, mes chéries. Today I bless you with my hot pot burps, share my holiday plans in Orlando, ponder thoughts on fashion & beauty being recession indicators, and provide some advice on how to manage the holiday season if you struggling with your family/your family is heavily impacted by current conflicts domestic and abroad. Lastly, I shed some insight on how to make the best of your next two months before the new year.

  • Ep. 52 | Girl, aren't you embarrassed?!
    Nov 6 2025

    Today's episode recaps Halloween this year after discussing some questionable Instagram ads I am getting lately. Then we dive into the hot question on the internet from Vogue: Is it embarrassing to be in a relationship?

    Ladies, we have truly lost the plot if this is the take of 2025. In this episode, I discuss what gender equality actually means - and it's not splitting the bills 50/50 or emasculating men who take a traditionally female role in a relationship. After, I tie it to how women are starting to allow the insecurities take over and create a divide amongst other females from targeting men in relationships (because they're "vetted" by someone stable who they aspire to be like) or ridiculing them for having something that they don't have yet such as a partner. I share some of my own experiences with this type of crazy behavior and how to stand your ground when faced with someone who disrespects you. And friends, remember that 99% of the time people's problems with you have to do with their projections or insecurities and not you. ;)

    Stay safe out there ladies!
