In this episode, we start with some recent experiences outside our comfort zones, including taking a cooking class and a glass blowing class, and talk about what surprised us, what we loved, and how expectations compared to reality.

Then we dive into a bigger conversation about expectations vs. reality when it comes to keeping reptiles, especially how social media can shape (and sometimes distort) what the hobby really looks like day to day. We break down the differences between what you see online versus what actually happens behind the scenes.

To wrap things up, we jump into a girly segment and ask: are you the type of girl to confront someone? We talk about conflict styles, avoidance, growth, and the messy realities of standing up for yourself.
