It's a Regular Guy & Gal Xmas Eve Eve Special (Ep. 98)

The problem with holidays like Halloween and Valentine's Day. The problem with not recognizing value in others and not recognizing value in self. The problem with high IQ's and how they can betray you. The problem with being labelled a genius. The problem - and far deeper consequences - of family and friends not seeing you and undermining your worth. The problem with being born with gifts. The problem with spreading your gifts too thin. The problem with age and the reduction of your popularity hormones. No problem with @thekelseymeyer and @thepoojanayyar being on vaca next week and no problem with the clique's no social media on vaca plan. RGF Bonus: Another live @undergaro #catfish fail.

It’s been a while since the Better Together gals sat down to chat, so we decided to film a little girls chat show for you all today. Maria shares her movie experience and her tip on overcoming the fear and anxiety that she felt going in. Kelsey and Pooja educate us on the newest social media craze, BeReal, and why they’re obsessed with it. Maria reminds us that these platforms can be toxic and we should have more empathy when posting. She shares how she “catches” and redirects her negative thoughts. We discuss end-of-summer cleaning and what Maria is doing to prep for the next season. And last but not least, we answer a question from a Heal Squad member about how to handle jealousy in friendship. We cover A LOT, so we hope you have your notebooks out!  BETTER TOGETHER’S RESOURCES:  Macy's promo: Maria is continually updating this page to find the best of the best so you don’t have to do the work!

Why you shouldn't feel rejected when dating. The utopian views that limit us. The power of compromise. Those times you need to surrender your power but what to do when you do. Why so many are in persecution mode today and how the rest of us can handle them. How darkness has always existed and the only difference today. How the universe not only teaches us but also jokes with us. Plus @poojanayyar almost quits being popular shaking @undergaro to the core, @thekelseymeyer shares valuable boy data. RGF Bonus: Why sometimes trying new things is counter productive.
