Pour yourself some Conniption and join us for another cheeky chat!🍸 In this episode, we’re recapping our fabulous Summer Soirée — which wasn’t complete without cocktails made with our favorite gin from Conniption, obviously. We welcomed our favorite people into our new apartment, let the cocktails flow freely, and danced the night away! We then dive deep into the beauty and complexity of girlhood and why nurturing true sisterhood is everything. Things get vulnerable as we open up about a recent tough fight we had, unpacking codependency in friendships and how to navigate those emotional waters with honesty and love. True friendships sometimes force you to have hard conversations — but that’s because you actually care. Plus, we’re talking astrology… DUH! We break down the powerful Blue Moon in Sagittarius from last weekend and how its energy is calling us to release old identities, step into expansion, and level up our potential. Of course, we wrap it all up with our signature Happy Hour Hot Takes — because what’s Gin & Chat without a little unfiltered chaos? Spoiler alert: these ones might ruffle some frat boys’ feathers.

This week we’re serving you delusional self-confidence with a side of chaos and cocktails!

Then we do a tell all of our very first acting audition… and yes, spoiler alert besties, we absolutely crushed it. Delusional self-confidence? Delivered.
