This week on Burnt Out Perfectionist, Sara and Eve dive into all the things adults seem to understand—but somehow nobody ever actually explained. From taxes, write-offs, benefits, investing, and mortgages to skincare routines, engagement rings, body types, colour analysis, and periods, we're admitting the things we've been quietly Googling for years.

Because at some point, adulthood starts to feel like everyone else got an instruction manual and we somehow missed the meeting.

Join us for a funny, honest conversation about the things we pretend to understand, the things we're still figuring out, and why the secret might be that nobody really knows what they're doing.

🎙️ In this episode: • Taxes & business write-offs • Benefits, insurance & claims • Investing & the stock market • Mortgages & home buying • Skincare & beauty routines • Body types & colour analysis • Engagement rings & wedding expectations • The strange reality of being an adult

✨ Follow Burnt Out Perfectionist for new episodes every Monday.

Remember when websites had personality, social media felt social, and you didn't need to create three accounts, enter a one-time code, and dodge fifteen pop-ups just to download a printable?

In Part 2 of our internet nostalgia conversation, Sara and Eve dive into everything that makes the modern internet feel exhausting. From endless ads, algorithm overload, and influencer consumerism to overpriced water bottles, impossible lunch containers, online shopping frustrations, and the disappearance of fun, quirky corners of the web, we're asking:

Did technology make life easier, or just more complicated?

In this episode:

• Why every website feels the same
• Pop-ups, subscriptions, and digital overload
• The pressure to buy everything online
• The rise of influencer culture and consumer trends
• Why shopping online has become exhausting
• The return of old-school crafts and creativity
• When convenience stopped being convenient

What part of the old internet do you miss most?

New episodes every Monday.

Remember when every website looked completely different?

This week, Sara and Eve are taking a nostalgic trip through the internet we grew up with — the weird websites, messy profiles, Tumblr themes, MSN Messenger, early Instagram, and the days before every app looked exactly the same.

We chat about:

• Why social media feels exhausting now

• When online shopping became a scavenger hunt

• The death of weird internet culture

• Why everything online suddenly looks beige

• Fast-moving trends and algorithm overload

• The platforms we secretly miss

• The strange joy of an internet that wasn't trying to sell us something every five seconds

Maybe we're just getting older. Or maybe the internet really was more fun when it was a little ugly.

What part of the old internet do you miss most?

ara and Eve kick off the episode mid-chaos, bouncing from ADHD tangents and allergy season misery straight into the very real struggle of staying hydrated when your body just... forgets. From there it turns into a full warm-weather spiral — the impossible hunt for non-see-through summer clothes, pale girl foundation drama, and why everyone suddenly wants you to tattoo freckles on your face. They also get into the summer cooking dilemma (nothing sounds good, everything makes the house hot, and crock pots are a scam), plus the exhausting logistics of leaving the house when you're the one who has to pack for everyone. It's a whole mess, in the best way.

Turns out we've both been sleeping on the same things — just for completely different reasons.

This week Sara and Eve are talking trends: the ones they were embarrassingly late to, a few they were surprisingly early on, and the things they swore they'd never care about before eventually caving completely. From wired headphones and body pillows to the Cricut, reading again, and actually investing in sleep — some of the best things in their lives right now are ones they ignored for years.

They're also sharing a big update: Our clothing line Overwhelmed The Label just relaunched with a full rebrand — new garments, new colourways, a totally different direction, and it's very much giving 'something you'd steal from your parents' closet in the 80s.' Canada-only for now, but go have a look.

Spring is here, which means the internet has officially decided you're doing everything wrong. Your morning routine is wrong. Your breakfast is wrong. Your skincare is wrong. Your gut is wrong. You should be up at 5am drinking celery juice in a cold shower while journaling about your five-year plan — obviously.

Sara and Eve are here to say: absolutely not.

This week they're deep in the wellness trend spiral — from the 5AM Club and protein coffee to probiotic sodas that cleared the room, supplement cycles that disappear as fast as they trend, the "our ancestors didn't do this" argument (spoiler: our ancestors also died at 35), and why every spring feels like a new contract to overhaul your entire life or else.

They also get into: morning nausea and "safe foods," the diet cycle from Atkins to carnivore to Mediterranean and back again, BookTok and whether a fantasy romance can actually "change your life," skincare overwhelm, lip balm paralysis, and why The Rookie is genuinely good TV.

If you've ever tried something for a week, forgot about it, and then felt vaguely guilty — this one's for you.

we’ve officially entered our “bare minimum but still trying” era 😂

spring hits and suddenly everyone is glowing, productive, and doing the most… meanwhile we’re just trying to look like we have our life together with the least amount of effort possible

this episode is chaotic in the best way — we talk about:

• why social media feels exhausting right now
• influencer culture vs real life (coachella… we’re looking at you 👀)
• “natural” routines that are absolutely not natural
• adhd-friendly shortcuts that actually make life easier
• and what bare minimum REALLY means

if your routine is based on “how fast can i be done”… you’re our people

✨ new episodes every monday at 6am pst ✨ same time, same vibe, next week’s your cue. Today’s was late because lol i was tired

We sat down on April Fools' Day and did something a little different — we went through a list of oddly satisfying things that just HIT. You know the ones. They scratch something in your brain that's hard to explain but impossible to deny.
