Show Notes
Eva marched a Stephen King-grade demon clown costume up to the register in a store for kids — and when the manager disagreed that it didn’t belong there, she bought $50 Boden sneakers out of spite for the place. Weeks later, her 6-year-old still won't go to the bathroom alone, because in her mind, the clown lives there now.
Kami, meanwhile, rides the high of the biggest legal win of her life — a court ruling that her former broker owes her over $6k in commission, plus attorney's fees, after she represented herself start to finish. She's 46 and had never set foot in a courtroom before this case, and is already plotting how to pay it forward with a giveaway once the check actually clears.
Eva's face is healing beautifully from her Junera laser treatment (thank-you sneakers included, minus the promised hot-pink laces), and she opens up about the financial advisor who finally got her out of feast-or-famine bookkeeping — plus the story of an offhand comment she made years ago that changed a friend's entire career path into trauma therapy.

Kami is five days into recovery from a balloon sinuplasty and turbinate reduction, and it has been brutal — she’s too congested to wear her CPAP, she can’t use her mouth guard while mouth-breathing all night, and she’s up every hour drinking water. Before any of that came up, though, she showed off three new waist-length hair extension colors, Foxy, Aurora, and Paprika, from Wildcrafted Beauty.
Eva hadn't budged from 186 for a year and a half — until she stepped on it this week and saw 180, a number she hasn't seen in ages, ice cream summer in Washington included.
Three weeks after her Halo resurfacing, Eva decides to take the opportunity to have a Junera laser treatment, a new technology that treats the skin from within to tighten the face and neck from the inside.
After an important discussion about the microwave (also known as the micro-wah-vay), we theorize that GLP-1s are basically commoditized now.
After Eva went in for Halo laser resurfacing with a friend (who happens to be one of the best in the world), she walked out looking horrifying (according to the 8 year old) then drove straight to a dance recital tearing a cooling mask in half and swapping it between cheeks.
