Show Notes
High school dating is genuinely its own universe 😭💗 and in this episode, KJ and I are breaking down EVERYTHING I wish someone had explained to me when I was younger. We’re talking about what high school boys are actually thinking, how to tell if a guy likes you, the different types of guys you’ll meet, first relationships, first kisses, communication, intimacy, peer pressure, trust, and all of the confusing little situations that feel like the end of the world when you’re experiencing them for the first time. We also categorize the different types of high school boys — from the egomaniacs I would personally tell you to RUN from, to the shy kings, to my personal pick for an actual relationship: the nonchalant chiller guys. 😭 But more than anything, I want this episode to remind you that you do not have to rush your high school experience. You don't need a boyfriend just because your friends have one. You don't have to kiss someone because everyone else already has. And you NEVER have to become intimate with someone because you feel behind or pressured. Your first experiences are YOURS. There is no timeline you need to follow. We also talk about how important communication and trust are when you do get into a relationship, how to recognize when someone genuinely likes you, and why understanding your own boundaries is way more important than trying to impress a teenage boy who probably has approximately three thoughts bouncing around his head at any given moment. 💀 High school love can be exciting, dramatic, confusing, heartbreaking and SO fun all at once. Cherish it, learn from it, and please don't waste your entire high school experience trying to get one random boy to choose you. Choose yourself first. 🎀 CHAPTERS 00:00 — Introduction + Album Update 04:55 — Dating in High School: What We Wish We Knew 14:52 — Understanding How High School Boys Think 25:03 — The Different Types of High School Boys 34:49 — Who Should You Actually Date? 35:18 — Intimacy, Trust & Communication 41:42 — Peer Pressure & Feeling “Behind” 45:29 — How to Tell if He Actually Likes You 48:01 — High School Dating: Would You Rather? 58:27 — Looking Back at Our High School Experiences #HighSchoolAdvice #DatingAdvice #TeenDating #HighSchoolDating #RelationshipAdvice #TeenRelationships #FirstRelationship #DatingTips #GirlTalk #HighSchool SUBMISSIONS- https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe4SUs6-mRnrR17Pr1P4rXSzKRHZzmBgK0QXQwMYwxRwO3EPg/viewform?usp=dialog SHOP MY SWIMWEAR COLLECTION- https://mysecretswim.com/ STREAM MY SONG "UNDERCOVER-https://open.spotify.com/track/7ylgLLPbyYy6Xe1nYFr8b0?si=780b1d9d21c14d2b

MY ALBUM “Alchemist” is out NOW!💜COMMENT YOUR FAVORITE SONG💜 THERE IS A VERSION OF YOU THAT HAS EVERYTHING YOU COULD EVER DESIRE! KJ my twin is here to offer her words of wisdom on this week’s topic - following your dreams. We wanted to do this episode to inspire anyone out there who is pursuing a career or passion that others might consider to be a “crazy idea" or not practical. If you have people in your life who are projecting their self-doubt onto you, let us be your support system today because we are living proof that chasing your dreams and breaking out from under other people’s expectations is worth it. Please remember that not chasing your dreams is a life of self-abandonment, and you are so lucky to have something that makes you feel alive. In this episode, we talk about finding your calling, manifestation and how it’s actually science, the importance of surrounding yourself with likeminded people, and how to not let other people infiltrate your reality. I also share how I started my career and realized that as long as I kept going, didn’t put limitations on myself, and held faith that everything was going to work out —there was no way that I wouldn’t be successful. And I also share some future dreams I want for myself! KJ and I read your stories and answer your questions about getting burnt out, feeling like you’re wasting your potential, and having unsupportive family members. We also give advice about not being able to choose one path. If Barbie, Dolly Parton, and Paris Hilton can be in various industries and achieve multiple things, then so can you!!! We as humans are forever-changing, so what good does it do to ask yourself ”who AM I?” There is a realm of possibilities out there for you. Believe in yourself, take action and stand firm in the reality you want to live in. The universe HAS to give you what you want. It’s the law—the Law of Attraction🩷

It’s officially cuffing season, and I fear I need to save some of you from yourselves. 😭🍂 In this episode, I’m giving you my ultimate Cuffing Season Survival Guide because just because it’s getting colder, everyone’s posting their cute fall dates, and you suddenly want someone to go to the pumpkin patch with does NOT mean it’s time to lower your standards. We’re talking about why cuffing season can make being single feel so much more dramatic than it actually is, the situationship red flags I need you to stop ignoring, mixed signals, getting over an ex, friendship drama, and how to know when it’s time to stay, walk away, or talk it out. I’m also reading some of your DMs and giving you my big-sister advice on messy situationships, trust issues, breaks, breakups, confusing men, and that horrible little feeling of wanting a relationship just because it seems like everyone around you has one. And most importantly, I want you to remember that you do NOT need a relationship to romanticize this season of your life. Go on the friend dates. Get the pumpkin coffee. Have the sleepovers. Wear the cute fall outfits. Go to the haunted house. Build a life you’re obsessed with—with or without a boyfriend. Because being lonely for a season is a whole lot better than getting cuffed to the wrong person just because you were cold. 😭 The right person won’t need a season to choose you. 💗 SUBMISSIONS- https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSe4SUs6-mRnrR17Pr1P4rXSzKRHZzmBgK0QXQwMYwxRwO3EPg/viewform?usp=dialog STREAM MY NEW SONGShttps://open.spotify.com/artist/7aTWY3ZVdr2405SqJyaqxb?si=WwRqfq04ThqoYF1X3y4LqA
