The day has finally come! Our first Voice Hugs episode recorded and filmed together in-person :')

This week we try something new with Viv interviewing Ro on her life story. We’ve shared bits and pieces of our experiences throughout the first 50 episodes, but as we wrap up season 1, we wanted to dedicate a get-to-know-you episode to each host to share a fuller picture of our story (next week will be all about Viv!)

We hope these next two episodes will help you understand us more as people, friends, partners, and hosts and discover how our life journeys have brought us together to create Voice Hugs today.

As always, thank you so much for being here ❤️ We are so grateful to be on this journey together with you and so so excited for what’s to come. LOVE YOU ALL SM!

Hi friends! First thing’s first, we want to apologize for the unannounced hiatus… one week turned into two weeks turned into a few months, and all of a sudden they’re now serving pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks :’) Friends don’t ghost friends, and we should have done better!

Even though we’ve been MIA, we have not stopped thinking about you 3 In fact, we’ve been working hard to gear up for Season 2 and we have a few special projects we can’t wait to share with you VERY soon!! hehe ~

In this episode, we share these updates and our plans to wrap up season 1 in the upcoming weeks. We also talk about where life has taken us during these past few months, recent reflections, and bittersweet interactions we’ve had with our inner child. And of course in Voice Hugs fashion, what started as an overdue catch up ended with the most existential question of what is the meaning of life? Stay tuned til the end for our theory.. perhaps the answer has been right in front of us this entire time (;

As always, thank you so much for being here ❤️ We are so grateful to be on this journey together with you and so so excited for what’s to come. LOVE YOU ALL SM!

What is your jealousy trying to tell you? We’ve all experienced it firsthand. Whether in romantic, platonic, or familial relationships, jealousy can show up in various facets of our lives often bringing forth complex emotions and challenging our sense of self.

In this episode, Ro and Viv explore the origins of their jealousy and how it may be more closely related to other emotions such as fear and sadness. After all, jealousy tends to arise as a response to a perceived or threatened loss or sense of inadequacy.

The duo talk about the difference between feeling jealous versus acting jealous, and how embracing the emotion can help us understand ourselves a little more.

A friendly reminder that you’re not “crazy” for feeling jealous 😇
