Keeping Up With the Class: The Comparison Trap

The 2025 Report Card

Class is officially in session as we close the books on 2025—no Scantrons, no finals, just vibes. In this episode, we’re handing out grades to the year that was, breaking down our Top 5s across every major “department”: binge-worthy shows, must-read (or audiobook) books, overplayed songs, unforgettable pop culture moments, and even our favorite podcasts.

Holiday Hall Pass: Celebrations that Make the Syllabus

Ever wonder why some holidays turn into full-blown productions while others quietly slip by without so much as a reminder? In this episode of C in Conduct, Stephanie and Sarah talk about why we go big for certain holidays—from the traditions we love to the memories we’re trying to recreate—and why not every celebration carries the same weight. We unpack nostalgia, expectations, and the joy of holiday hoopla, all while giving ourselves permission to celebrate what matters most. Bonus: no gift lists required, and still completely carpool-approved.

Missed the Bus Moments: Today Years Old Lessons

In this episode, we talk about all the things we probably should’ve learned a long time ago… but somehow didn’t. These are our “missed the bus” moments — the grown-up realizations, delayed epiphanies, and hilarious wait… what?! discoveries that finally clicked way later than they should have. It’s equal parts embarrassing, relatable, and absolutely on brand for us. You're sure to learn something new and enjoy joining the tardy party!

The Mental Load: Extra Credit We Didn’t Ask For

Ever feel like your brain has 47 tabs open—and you’re the only one who knows which one is playing music?

From grocery lists that live rent-free in your head to being the default family calendar, we’re breaking down why it feels so heavy—and laughing through it together. Bonus: it’s 100% carpool-approved, so no awkward explanations needed.
