80. Doing ALL the things at Once?! (Weddings, Houses & Babies… Oh My!)

It’s episode 80, friends! We’re celebrating with a brand-new segment called “Dread It,” where we dive into wild Reddit wedding posts and give our unfiltered planner-and-DJ take. First up: a spicy thread claiming “you’re getting scammed by wedding DJs.” (Spoiler alert: we have thoughts.) Then we switch gears and chat about something real—how to plan a wedding while also graduating, buying a home, or having a baby. Big life moments are exciting, but doing them all at once? Let’s just say… it’s a lot.

We’ll share some laughs, personal stories, and practical tips to help you keep your sanity, your budget, and your joy intact while juggling it all.
