Living the LA Wildfire + TikTok Ban for 12 Hours. Now What?

Note: We have donated 100% of the proceeds from Sisters Matcha purchases made since the LA fires to families in the Displaced Black Families GoFundMe Directory: https://tinyurl.com/mr22fn94 and we will continue to donate a portion of the proceeds for all orders made in January. The Tiger Sisters are back and diving into all the hot topics! In this special current events episode, Cherie and Jean talk about the LA wildfires and share how they’re staying safe, dish on the TikTok ban and what it means for creators, and reveal their latest “roses and thorns” (including Cherie’s ambitious 40-fruits-and-veggies challenge🥑🍓). You’ll also get a sneak peek at Season 3 of Tiger Sisters—complete with a brand-new interview format featuring inspiring entrepreneurs and leaders. Plus, don’t miss their pop culture recs (Timothée Chalamet fans unite) and candid chats about everything from gut health to Gen Z’s big moves. Get ready for honest insights, plenty of laughs, and that signature sisterly banter you love! Tune in now on YouTube, Apple Podcasts, or Spotify—and don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe.
