December hit hard: snow, an allergic reaction, decision paralysis, and money with pre-diagnosed conditions. Two self-employed women on why you can't always hustle, what a break even looks like when you're programmed to always be on, and 'me need a dimmer'. Angel closes with boundaries, her mother, and the line that stays: you need a license to drive a car, but not to be a parent. (Filmed 2024 )

One gymnastics mom, one mom of four athletes across football, soccer and volleyball. Why they spend the money (it's cheaper than bail), the quit Tugs still regrets, the full ride her son walked away from, the parents living through their kids, and the must-haves for a 10 a.m. tournament an hour away. For every mom who has eaten a sandwich in a cold arena. (Filmed 2024 )

Social media says you're not supposed to need your man. Tugs (30 years with hers) and Angel (married to her best friend) disagree. Being the rib, dying to yourself every day, the pandemic of social media marriages, why attacking somebody's marriage should be a crime, and why nobody is in receiving mode on the battlefield. Two imperfect women, two long marriages, no filter. (filmed 2024)

Angel turned 46 and had to talk herself into receiving love. That opens a conversation about what a real tribe looks like after 40: why "I'm not the friend for you" is kinder than stringing someone along, why you have to come with at least a cup, why a village can't be six cooks, and who gets voted off the island. Plus the first Awa Smell So candle segment. Filmed 2024
