episode Are You a Silly Goose or a Silly Goose Ally? artwork

Are You a Silly Goose or a Silly Goose Ally?

This week, I’m breaking down a very important (and very scientific) question: are you dating a silly goose, a silly goose ally, or—worst of all—the fun police? After running a highly controlled “ice cream flavor test” on one pro hockey All-Star (peer-reviewed by me and Meghan), I realized something: early-stage dating is basically one long improv exercise. And not everyone is equipped for the power play. We’re getting into: * Why banter is one of the strongest indicators of compatibility early on * The psychology of humor, intelligence, and cognitive flexibility * Why some people can commit to the bit… and others panic * What your texting chemistry reveals about long-term relationship potential * And how to tell if it’s a bad bit… or just the wrong test subject Let's be so honest for a sec: you're not just looking for someone attractive—you’re looking for someone who can keep up. Consider this your field guide to modern dating… one silly goose at a time.

episode How to Be the Wingwoman Everyone Wants artwork

How to Be the Wingwoman Everyone Wants

In this episode, I’m coming at you from the Lagree studio and recapping my absolute whirlwind of a month — traveling to Scottsdale (twice), going to hockey games, getting cast in my first major commercial campaign, and showing up solo to the Waste Management Open as my own social experiment — plus stepping into bridesmaid duties for two back-to-back weddings (where yes, I notoriously roll alone). But the heart of this episode is about mastering the art of being a professional wingwoman: how to genuinely hype up your friend, help create her moment, and elevate her sparkle without dimming your own. I break down the mindset shifts and social strategies that let you be supportive, magnetic, and confident all at once — because being the ultimate hype girl doesn’t mean becoming a side character. You can hand her the spotlight and still keep your main character energy fully intact.

Prayers, Pucks, and Possibilities: Trusting What You Ask For in 2026

In this episode, I’m recapping a heated hockey rivalry, how I somehow walked away with Sleeves’s hockey stick, and the unexpected joy of making new friends in the middle of it all. But beyond the pucks and the antics, this episode is really about faith—what it means to ask boldly, trust deeply, and believe that what you ask for can be given to you. As we head into 2026, I’m sharing why I’m choosing to pray in faith instead of fear, release control, and trust that the right things—people, opportunities, and yes, even hockey sticks—will find their way to me when the timing is right. If you’ve ever struggled with trusting the ask, letting go, or believing that good things can still come your way, this one is especially for you.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
