Friend drama? Roommate tension? Dating someone who says “I’m not great at texting” but mysteriously lives on snapchat?

In this episode of Hot Mess Help Desk, we’re unpacking the glorious chaos of relationships — the good, the bad, and the “we need to talk” texts. We cover everything from healthy boundaries (aka not answering texts at 2am), to conflict resolution that doesn’t end in ghosting, to spotting red flags before you invest six months and your Hulu login.

Whether you’re navigating friendships, situationships, or a roommate who definitely eats your snacks--we've got something for you.

Two counselors, total hot messes, helping you survive love, roommates, and everything in between.

Between late-night study sessions, early classes, and “just one more episode,” college sleep schedules are… chaotic, to say the least. In this episode, Mya and Lainie break down what happens when your brain doesn’t get enough rest (hint: it’s not just about feeling tired), why all-nighters don’t actually help you ace exams, and how rest is more than just sleeping — it’s how your body resets. They’ll share real-life ways to get better rest without overhauling your whole schedule, plus myth-bust the idea that sleep is optional in college. Takeaway: Sleep isn’t lazy — it’s maintenance. And your brain deserves the upgrade.

Stress is real, snacks are life, and sleep… well, sometimes it’s just a rumor. In this episode of Hot Mess Help Desk, Mya and Lainie break down what stress actually does to your brain and body (spoiler: it’s not just in your head), why pulling all-nighters and living off energy drinks backfires, and how small things like water, naps, or texting a friend can make a big difference.

From exam pressure to money stress, we’re covering it all — plus myth-busting the idea that you just have to “push through” until finals. Grab your stress toolkit and learn how to hit reset (even if it’s just for two minutes).

Takeaway: Stress is normal. Burnout doesn’t have to be. And yes, snacks totally count as coping.
