  • Butter, Bordeaux, and Breathtaking Paris
    May 27 2026
    In this episode, Jillian and Eliza unpack everything: the magic of waking up in a 17th-century hotel, private tours through the Louvre and Versailles, late-night Eiffel Tower sparkles, and the unexpected joy of simply wandering Parisian streets with wine in hand and nowhere to be. They also open up about anxiety, motherhood, learning to let go, and how travel changed the way they see themselves. Then "the girls" join the conversation to share their side of the trip — including getting lost on the Metro, clubbing until sunrise, making friends with strangers, and discovering a new kind of confidence while navigating Europe on their own. It’s funny, heartfelt, chaotic, and a reminder that sometimes the best thing you can do is book the trip.

  • Emergency Breakthrough
    May 20 2026
    Two girls in matching cheerleading uniforms became lifelong friends after one late-night phone call and an unexpected loyalty test. Some friendships arrive quietly and shape your entire life before you even realize it. As Eliza and Jillian fly home from Paris, they look back at the moment their friendship began, the versions of themselves they used to be, and the women they’re still becoming. A conversation about loyalty, history, reinvention, and the people who make us brave enough to book the trip.

  • Who the Hell are We Living For?
    May 13 2026
    This week on Girls Tripped, we’re digging into what it really means to let go—of expectations, old definitions of success, and the voices (hi, Mom 👋) that still live rent-free in our heads. From career paths we were supposed to want, to the guilt of choosing ourselves, we’re asking: Are we living our lives… or the ones we inherited? Between honest conversations about motherhood, ambition, and identity (plus a little pre-Paris anxiety), we’re figuring out what’s actually worth holding onto—and what needs to go. Because at some point, you have to ask: Who are you, without everyone else’s expectations? And more importantly… What would you do if you finally let them go?

  • Fear is loud. Regret is louder.
    May 6 2026

    This week on Girls Tripped, Eliza and Jillian take on fear, regret, and the quiet ways both can shape a life. From life-altering health scares to everyday overthinking, they unpack what fear really looks like—and why the things we don’t do tend to stay with us the longest. Is fear just a moment… while regret lingers? And how often are our biggest “what ifs” the result of playing it safe? As they prepare for Paris, the conversation turns to risk, opportunity, and what it actually means to stop waiting and start living.

    Because at some point, you either face the fear… or carry the regret.

  • Long-term Love
    Apr 29 2026

    This week on Girls Tripped, Eliza and Jillian take an honest look at love, marriage, and what it really means to stay.

    From whirlwind beginnings to long marriages that ended not in betrayal—but in change—they explore the tension between commitment and self. Is longevity something we chase at the expense of honesty? Can two people grow together, or do some relationships simply outgrow themselves? Plus, as they prepare for Paris, they ask: what does romance even look like now? Is it passion—or partnership? And what happens when temptation shows up at a café table in the most romantic city in the world? This episode is messy, funny, deeply reflective—and a reminder that the most important relationship you’ll ever have… is the one you have with yourself.

  • Let Them Struggle, Too
    Apr 22 2026
    We grew up figuring things out on our own—so why is it so hard to let our kids do the same? In this episode, we’re talking about what it really means to “give them the world”… and whether we’ve gone too far. We explore the tension between protecting and preparing, the guilt that comes with stepping back, and the question of whether struggle is something to avoid—or something they actually need. As usual, we don’t approach it the same way. One of us wants to step in. The other knows we probably shouldn’t. Neither of us is totally sure where the line is. And then Paris steps in—where the generational divide shows up in real time. Because while we’re ready to sit with a glass of wine… they’re chasing golden hour and 400 photos. Because maybe the real question is: Can we love them enough to let things be hard?

  • Friendship in Midlife
    Apr 4 2026
    Friendship in your 20s is easy. Friendship in midlife? That’s something else entirely. In this episode, we’re talking about what makes female friendship deeper, more intentional—and sometimes more complicated—as life gets harder and more real. We get into loyalty, loss, long marriages, divorce, and the moments that show you exactly who’s in your corner. We’ve both lived very different experiences, but somehow ended up with a friendship that holds all of it. And then there’s travel—because nothing reveals a friendship faster than a trip together. Especially in a city like Paris. Because maybe the real question is: Are the best friendships the easiest ones… or the ones that have been tested?

  • Are we stable or bored?
    Apr 3 2026
    A stable life looks good from the outside. But does it always feel good on the inside? In this episode, we’re asking what it really means to feel alive—and whether stability sometimes comes at the cost of that feeling. We talk about long marriages, unexpected life changes, and the moments that shake you awake whether you’re ready or not. One of us has built a life rooted in consistency. The other has had stability taken away—and sees it very differently. And in Paris, the question becomes real: do you stick to the plan… or follow what feels alive in the moment? Because maybe the real question is: Can you have a life that feels both safe… and fully alive?
