This week, we’re catching up with our friend Jaylan Evans, who you may recognize as Skylar Summerhill on Netflix's My Life with the Walter Boys. It’s been a minute since we’ve seen him! He's been busy off filming, and this conversation feels like both a reunion and a deep dive into everything that’s changed.

Jaylan takes us behind the scenes of working on a Netflix series: what life on set is really like, how TV and film differ from our shared roots in theatre, and the adjustments that come with stepping into a whole new world as a performer.

We also rewind to the not-so-glamorous chapter—his life in NYC before booking. From working retail and living paycheck to paycheck to navigating constant audition rejection, Jaylan opens up about the persistence it took to keep going… all the way to landing a series regular role.

It’s an honest, inspiring, and full-circle conversation about friendship, growth, and what happens when everything you’ve been working toward finally meets you where you are.

What does it actually mean to be a lucky girl?

In this episode, we dive into the idea of Lucky Girl Syndrome. The belief that things always seem to work out for you. But is luck something that just happens… or is it something you create?

We talk about our own experiences with feeling lucky (and very unlucky), the mindset shifts that can open doors, and the ways belief, action, and timing all play a role in the opportunities that come your way. Is luck manifestation? Privilege? Perspective? Or just being brave enough to try?

Whether you swear the universe is conspiring in your favor or you think luck is total BS, this episode explores what it really means to “get lucky," and how you might be able to create a little more of it in your own life.

In this Women’s Month special, the conversation took us somewhere we didn’t expect. What started as a discussion about womanhood turned into one of our most vulnerable episodes yet.

We share personal stories about the realities many women quietly carry, including moments where our safety was taken out of our hands. It’s a raw and honest conversation about the weight of being a woman in the world today.

This episode is about telling the truth, supporting each other, and acknowledging the realities women face on a day to day basis. If you’ve ever felt alone in your experiences, we hope this conversation reminds you that you’re not.

Trigger Warning: This episode includes discussions of sexual assault, grooming, and drugging.
