Everyone online seems to be “making six figures from their side hustle”… so why does starting something feel so overwhelming?

This week, Sara and Eve get honest about what it actually looks like to build something from scratch — from launching a podcast in 2022 to navigating Etsy, Shopify, RSS feeds, social media burnout, and the very unglamorous backend of running an online business.

We talk about: – The myth of overnight success – Why most “I made $15k in a month” stories skip five years of work – The reality of government classifications and being called “below the poverty line” – Podcast tech chaos (GarageBand, Audacity, RSS feeds, Canva struggles) – Why burnout happens before the success does

If you’ve ever considered starting a podcast, online shop, or side hustle — or felt behind watching everyone else “win” — this episode is your reminder that growth is messy, nonlinear, and rarely as simple as Instagram makes it look.

Same time, same vibe. We’ll keep it real — because that’s what we do.

In this episode of Burnt Out Perfectionist, we’re talking about hobbies, hyperfixations, and the things we forgot we loved as kids.

From building forts and making random creations to nostalgia, creativity, and finding joy without pressure — this is a real conversation about why fun doesn’t need to be productive, monetized, or turned into a side hustle.

We talk about: • childhood hobbies and creative chaos • feeling disconnected from fun as adults • side hustle culture vs genuine enjoyment • hyperfixations, creativity, and curiosity • reconnecting with the things that made us feel alive

This episode feels like a cozy conversation between sisters figuring out how to make space for play again — without perfection or pressure.

In this episode (out Feb 9), we do an honest January check-in — the good, the chaotic, and the downright exhausting.

We talk about Blue Monday, doomscrolling, cold rinks, early mornings, and what it really feels like to “just get through” the month.

This isn’t a glow-up episode — it’s a real, couch-style reflection on burnout, energy, and balance.

In this episode, we dive into the idea of an analogue bag — a simple, intentional kit for living more offline, more present, and less overwhelmed.

Instead of carrying everything on our phones, we talk about building a physical “slow life bag” filled with tools that help us think, feel, create, and regulate without constant screens.

We chat about: • why we’re craving more analogue living • what actually goes in the bag • how this connects to our vision boards • slowing down without pressure • reducing digital overload • feeling more grounded day to day

This isn’t about productivity or perfection — it’s about finding little ways to feel calmer, more creative, and more like ourselves in a fast, noisy world.

If you’re tired of scrolling, burnout, or feeling mentally fried, this episode might inspire you to build your own analogue bag.

In part two of our vision board series, we stop talking about what looks good and start talking about what actually feels good.

We get into why motivation doesn’t work for us, what “default settings” really means, and how we’re trying to build lives that feel doable instead of constantly overwhelming.

From habits over hype, journaling blocks, emotional processing, cozy living, creativity, and letting go of perfection — this episode is all about shifting from catch-up mode to something that actually supports us.

If vision boards have ever made you feel behind instead of inspired, this one’s for you.

We’re kicking off 2026 the only way we know how: with a pop culture bingo card, zero pressure, and a lot of strong opinions.

In this episode, sisters Sara and Eve make their totally unserious (but deeply passionate) predictions for 2026 — from rom-coms finally making a comeback, Dancing With the Stars wish lists, nostalgic media returns, and subscription fatigue… to bread machines, book merch, button-making, and the year of cozy chaos.

We talk:

• why everything feels too serious lately
• our craving for fun, easy, comforting entertainment
• pop culture trends we hope come true
• hobbies, nostalgia, and things that just make life lighter

No resolutions. No reinvention. Just vibes, laughs, and a fresh season ahead.

✨ same time, same vibe — welcome to season 4.
