Season 23 Ep 12: Let's talk Cannabis!
Dec 3000:38:42Tap to summarizeWhen our mom was on the show Raquel and her quickly touched on the benefits of the cannabis plant. And it was suggested that we have a show about exactly that. Cannabis is medicine, it's so much more than just a plant you smoke to get high (though we ain't mad at that either lol!). But somewhere along the way this beautiful medicinal plant got a bad wrap and has been demonized and rebranded as "bad". So let's shed some light on how magical the Cannabis plant truly is and the many ways Cannabis can help you actually FUEL your body. And if you've been riding with is for a while now you'll remember our friend Gary, the amazing health warrior, as he shared his incredible health journey with us back on Season 11!

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep11: Midlife - Crisis or Clarity
Dec 3000:37:55Tap to summarizeWe've all heard of the term "midlife crisis" BUT have you ever heard of midlife CLARITY? Honey! We don't know about you but WE surely don't want to live in a crisis! Pick your hard girl! The question at hand is this: Is hitting your 40s and 50s really about spiraling into a crisis—or is it finally the moment everything clicks? This show dives into the messy, funny, and eye-opening realities of midlife. Society tries to make us fearful of entering this stage of our lives but should we be afraid? Or should we be excited about the possibility of rediscovering passions (and maybe yourself in the process)? So let's explore whether this stage is breakdown or breakthrough. Spoiler: it might just be both.

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep10: Real talk with Johnny Krash: Guns, Trauma, & the American Spirit
Dec 3000:40:21Tap to summarizeThis week, we sit down with our great friend, Johnny Krash, for the kind of conversation that feels like home yet challenges the way you think. Johnny brings sharp insight on guns and gun control, the climate of our country, and the realities of PTSD among troops, law enforcement etc. Topics that often divide, but here are approached with honesty, depth, and respect. Together we explore what freedom really means, how trauma shapes resilience, and where hope still lives in a divided America. It's equal parts real talk, reflection, and revelation, the kind of dialogue that reminds us why meaningful conversations matter.

Dec 3000:56:36Tap to summarizeWhen it comes to cheating, is it the ultimate betrayal that ends everything or just a wake-up call that something deeper is wrong in the relationship? In this episode, we dive into the messy, complicated, and very real conversations about infidelity. From emotional affairs to something deeper, we unpack the signs, the reasons, and the aftermath.

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep8: Are you THAT person?!
Dec 3000:32:21Tap to summarizeSquad... Be honest! Are you the person who wants to win the lottery but never actually plays? The one who wants a soulmate but won't leave the couch? Or maybe you swear you're going to "get your life together" … right after one more Netflix binge. ✨😫 Are You That Person? is the hilarious call-out episode you didn't know you needed, but we did so today we're shining a light on the little contradictions we all live with - wanting big results while doing, well… nothing. Through funny question prompts, some real talk (duh), and a whole lot of "yep, that's me" moments, this show will have you laughing, cringing, and maybe even taking action (hopefully pero no promises). So, are you that person? Or are you ready to finally stop just talking about it? Round 1: Everyday Habits • Are you that person who sets five alarms and still oversleeps? • Are you that person who finishes people's sentences? • Are you that person who leaves the shopping cart in the middle of the parking lot? • Are you that person who can't leave the house without making the bed? • Are you that person who eats the fries before touching the burger? • Are you that person who keeps every receipt in their purse or car? • Are you that person who sings out loud in the car like it's a concert? • Are you that person who texts back instantly… or three days later? Round 2: Personality & Quirks • Are you that person who always has to be early, or always runs late? • Are you that person who needs silence to think, or do you thrive in chaos? • Are you that person who laughs in serious situations? • Are you that person who's always optimistic, even when things look bad? • Are you that person who plans everything… or just wings it? • Are you that person who avoids confrontation, or goes straight at it? • Are you that person who needs validation, or doesn't care what people think? Round 3: Deep Cuts (for meaningful convos) • Are you that person who forgives easily, or holds grudges? • Are you that person who believes people can change? • Are you that person who procrastinates but somehow always pulls it off? • Are you that person who would rather outgrow a friendship quietly, or have "the talk"? • Are you that person who believes in manifestation, or just in hard work? • Are you that person who says "yes" too often, or are you quick to say "no"? • Are you that person who hides your feelings, or wears your heart on your sleeve?

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep 7: A conversation with Mama Cece
Dec 3000:32:31Tap to summarizeThis week we're bringing it all back home - literally. Our guest is the woman who made us. The one and only: Mama Cece. 💖 In this heartfelt (and hilarious) conversation, RaqC sits down with her for stories that only a mom can tell—about our childhood, who really caused the most trouble growing up, and the little moments that shaped our sisterhood. We dive into the wisdom she's carried through the years: her biggest health lessons, what she wishes she knew earlier, and the values she hopes to pass down as her lasting legacy. Of course, we couldn't let her leave without a round of RapidFire duh! Where she reveals her guilty pleasures, favorite memories, and maybe even picks a "favorite child" (don't worry, we won't hold it against her 😉). This episode is filled with laughter, nostalgia, and powerful reminders about family, health, and living with intention. It's proof that sometimes the most inspiring guest you can have… is the one who raised you.

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep 6: Personal Information Diet
Sep 1500:15:55Tap to summarizeWhat is a personal information diet? A personal information diet is basically the intentional way you choose what information you consume, how often, and from where -just like a food diet, but for your brain. The goal is to avoid "mental junk food" (gossip, endless scrolling, fear-driven headlines) and instead feed your mind with content that actually serves your goals, values, and well-being. Let's get into the Core elements of a personal information diet… _________________________________________________________ Follow us on IG: @straightupsistersthepodcast @raqcsworld @lasusie Follow us on YOUTUBE: Straight Up Sisters Podcast Email us: hello@straightupsisters.com

Transcribe →Season 23 Ep 4: Wait… Was That Gaslighting?
Aug 2200:39:21Tap to summarizeHave you ever walked away from a conversation thinking, "Wait… am I losing it?" Well that's not a coincidence. Sometimes the words people say (ourselves included) aren't just rude, they're manipulative. And the scary part is: we've ALL participated in this behavior (willing or unwillingly) without even realizing that that's actually what we're doing. I think we can all agree that we're living in a day and age where gaslighting has become SOOOO normal that sometimes we don't even recognize we are doing it. Before we start, let's establish one thing: Gaslighting isn't always loud or obvious. Sometimes, it's tucked into everyday phrases that seem harmless, normal or even caring. This is definitely a perspective check. This is gonna get good. _________________________________________________________ Follow us on IG: @straightupsistersthepodcast @raqcsworld @lasusie Follow us on YOUTUBE: Straight Up Sisters Podcast Email us: hello@straightupsisters.com
