Are invitations to family events a sign of seriousness?

In this unfiltered advice episode, K+L tackle your most relatable life dilemmas—from modern dating confusion to sticky workplace dynamics. If you’ve ever wondered how to ask “what are we?”, say no to yet another bachelorette weekend, or finally stop people-pleasing, this one’s for you.

Ahead, the girls get real about setting boundaries without guilt, finding clarity in love + friendships, and reclaiming your confidence when everyone else’s opinions get loud. Through grounded spiritual wisdom, K+L explore how self-respect is the foundation for every healthy relationship.

Walk away with easy scripts, mindset shifts, and empowering permission to speak up for what you deserve—in dating, friendships, and your career. This conversation is a reminder that honoring your truth doesn’t make you difficult—it makes you magnetic.
