Episode notes

πŸŽ™οΈ Barely Thriving Podcast | Episode 49

This week on Barely Thriving, Amy and Aseah kick things off with a chaotic Barely Thriving Hotline dilemma... a listener who thought she'd finally found a guy she was clicking with, only to discover he'd been casually seeing someone else too 😭

From there, things get increasingly unhinged as they unpack contraception, the pill, the implant, fertility and what hormonal birth control can actually feel like. They also get into sexual health, cheating, pregnancy, parenting responsibilities, why women seem to carry so much of the responsibility, and the extremely chaotic story of Amy and Aseah attempting to do a sexual health test together🩸

Expect dating disasters, contraception debates, fertility stories, relationship red flags, chaotic girl talk, strong opinions and plenty of laughs.

New episodes every week.
