Cheaters sucks. Finding out you've been cheated on even after it's all over still sucksβ€” which is exactly what happened to Chloe. This leads to the conversation of how does one see multiple people? Even if you're single just trying to get to know people it can feel like you're betraying everyone involved. These things can feel even more stressful as we age and relationships get more serious. Aging can be terrifying, but it's out of our control so the only thing we can do is live our lives...

So a lot has happened since we last met... like Eric met THE Biden. As you can tell it was a crazy week for Eric as he traveled across several states and met lots of people including Fred Liu and the Mr.Beast team. Meanwhile Chloe was having an emotional journey rather than a physical one. There's lots of lessons learned this week, including some great advice from Jimmy and Jaime about handling self-hatred and hiring in the creator space.

Friends - everyone needs them, but why are real ones so hard to find? Spoiler alert: it doesn't get easier once you're an adult. In fact it gets even more complicated once you throw work, spouses, and everyone doing their own thing into the mix.

Full-time content or back to tech...what about neither? Chloe has been defining her own path, which along the way has led her to sign a huge contract with a Taiwanese ed-tech company and contemplate launching her own TV show. Similarly, Eric's involvement in both business and content has him going from VC pitch meetings to hanging out in the Sway House with some of the world's biggest influencers.

When Chloe got laid off this year, she accidentally went viral and reached over 20m+ views online.
