are we... addicted to our phones? 36:08

לפני 4 ימים36:08

Today Maddy and Jen talk about the relationship we have with our phones. Are we just using them, or are we addicted? From mindless scrolling to compulsive texting, Maddy and Jen explore the psychology behind our screen addiction and what it means for our mental health. Tips for setting healthier phone boundaries: Do Not Disturb is your BFF – Keep notifications off to avoid constant interruptions and decide when to engage. Mute Group Chats – If certain conversations are overwhelming, silence notifications to check them on your own time. Break Automatic Checking – Identify moments when you instinctively reach for your phone (waiting in line, on the subway, during TV commercials) sit with your thoughts instead and see what happens. #LATERGRAM – If social media is part of your life, consider waiting until after an event to post, rather than spending time editing in real-time.

are we... mismanaging our time? 34:51

לפני 11 ימים34:51

Today Maddy and Jen are diving into time management—why we struggle with it, and how we can reclaim control of our schedules (and more importantly - our lives). From learning to say no without guilt to navigating the pressures of always being “busy,” the gals explore the tricky, tricky balance between productivity and rest. Key Takeaways: Saying No is a Skill – It's okay to decline plans without over-explaining. A simple “I’m not available” is enough. Prioritize Quality Over Quantity – Rather than stretching yourself thin trying to see everyone, focus on intentional, meaningful connections. Timers Are Your Best Friend – Setting a timer for a dreaded task (even just 10 minutes) can help build momentum. Reframe “Wasting Time” – Instead of judging yourself for scrolling TikTok, ask: Is this serving me? Brain breaks are valuable, too. Over-Scheduling as Avoidance – If you constantly fill your calendar to avoid downtime, ask yourself why. Learning to sit with your thoughts is an important skill.

are we... getting fired? 29:28

לפני 4 weeks29:28

29:28

Did ya miss us? We're back! This week, Maddy and Jen tackle the dreaded “F” word—fired—and break down everything you need to know if you find yourself in this situation. Whether you’ve been let go, fear losing your job, or just want to be prepared, this episode is your survival guide. 5 Steps to Survive Getting Fired or Laid Off Step 1: Give yourself time to process. Getting fired or laid off can be shocking and emotional. Resist the urge to immediately problem-solve or react impulsively. Take a day to sit with your emotions—whether that means venting to a friend, journaling, or practicing mindfulness. Step 2: STEP AWAY FROM THE PHONE! Do not post about your firing on social media or badmouth your former employer. If you need to vent, do it in therapy, with trusted friends, or privately - writing and ripping. Step 3: Get Closure & Reflect What can you learn from this? This is a time for problem-solving , not shame—figure out how to move forward with a positive mindset (or the best you can to be positive). Step 4: Who are you? Many people tie their identity to their job. Take time to recognize that you are more than your career. Practice describing yourself by your values and interests, not just your profession. Step 5: You got this! Get back out there! Set a realistic plan for job searching—don’t just scroll LinkedIn all day, everyday. Network! Reconnect with people in your industry, schedule coffee chats, and explore different paths. Give yourself permission to take a break—rest is part of the process. And remember, losing a job sucks, but it’s not the end—it’s a redirection. Handle it with grace, take care of yourself, and trust that you will move forward. xo, Maddy & Jen Connect with us: Email us your questions at: hello@areweokay.com Follow Jennifer on Instagram: @manhattan.wellness Follow Maddy on Instagram: @downtownbehavioralwellness Downtown Behavioral Wellness: Founded by Maddy Ellberger, Downtown Behavioral Wellness is a private therapy practice in NYC specializing in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT).

Coming off the holidays, you might find yourself reflecting on those tricky in-law dynamics—whether it’s navigating family gatherings, balancing expectations, or handling unsolicited advice. In this episode, Maddy and Jen dive headfirst into the complexities of in-law relationships. Join us! Key Takeaways: Assume Good Intentions: During and after the holidays, it’s helpful to approach in-law relationships with the belief that everyone is doing their best. This shift in mindset can create space for understanding and reduce tension. Communicate Effectively: Venting about your in-laws to your partner can create unnecessary friction. Instead, focus on constructive conversations that strengthen your teamwork as a couple. Set Realistic Expectations: Your in-laws aren’t your parents, and they don’t need to be. Different doesn’t mean bad—embrace the uniqueness of the relationship. Prepare for Family Time: Anticipate patterns of behavior that might create challenges during gatherings. Use radical acceptance to meet people where they are and set boundaries where needed.

From societal pressures to personal accountability, they share practical insights and tangible tips on how to make meaningful changes that actually stick—without falling into guilt, shame, or perfectionism traps.

Small, consistent improvements trump grand overhauls every time. Focus on Gentle Measurements: Replace rigid "every day" goals with achievable ones, like "more times than not."

Today Maddy and Jennifer lay out the ultimate roadmap for finding a partner in one year or less. With a mix of LOLs and practical advise they break down everything you need to know to make it happen—without losing sight of who you are. The Roadmap: Define Your Needs: Create an exhaustive list of "non-negotiables" and "nice-to-haves" to clarify what you're looking for in a partner. Work on Yourself: Reflect on patterns from previous relationships, take responsibility for your role, and clean up your “side of the street.” Put Yourself Out There: Commit to being uncomfortable at least once a week, whether that’s going on a date, joining a new activity, or meeting new people. Optimize Your Dating Profile: Your profile should reflect who you are and invite connection. Move Quickly to IRL Dates: Limit prolonged texting to avoid false intimacy. Use simple, direct language to transition to in-person meetings and assess real-life chemistry. Adopt a Yes-And Attitude: During dates, stay curious and open. Own Your Solo Time: Learn to enjoy and prioritize your own company.

Today Maddy and Jen dive into the complex and colorful world of mother-daughter relationships. From Jen’s close bond with her mom to Maddy’s reflections on her own, the duo explores how their relationships with their mothers shape what they’ll carry forward—or leave behind—as parents. Key Takeaways: Mother-daughter relationships are dynamic: They evolve over time, shaped by shared experiences, individuality, and values. Clear communication is essential: Whether it's setting boundaries or addressing concerns, open dialogue can help strengthen bonds. Empathy goes both ways: Recognizing that mothers are navigating parenthood for the first time—just as daughters are figuring out their own paths—can foster mutual understanding. Pick your battles: Not every conflict is worth escalating. Choose when to prioritize your feelings and when to let things go for the sake of harmony. Relationships take work: Whether it’s navigating food dynamics, balancing enmeshment, or fostering independence, relationships require effort and patience to thrive.

Maddy and Jennifer dive into the topic of avoidance and how it shows up in everyday life. From dodging text messages and delaying difficult conversations to steering clear of responsibilities like paying bills, they explore why we all avoid certain things and what it says about us. The duo shares their own experiences while offering insights on how to manage avoidance without letting it control our lives. Key Takeaways: Avoidance Snowballs: Small acts of avoidance can quickly grow, making things harder to face later. Curiosity Beats Confrontation: Approach tough conversations with curiosity to encourage open dialogue. Own Your Feelings: Use “I feel” statements to reduce defensiveness and foster better communication. You’re Not Responsible for Others’ Reactions: Express your needs without feeling responsible for how others respond. Balance Vulnerability and Boundaries: Be open, but don’t overshare if it feels uncomfortable or unnecessary.
