She Saved an Article. It Cost Her a Friendship.
Jessica Levin isn't a collector. So when she saved Mark Manson's "Fuck Yes or No" article years ago, it meant something. That simple framework — if it's not a fuck yes, it's a no — didn't just change how she approached dating. It became an operating system for her entire life, including how she shows up as a friend.
In this episode, we explore what happens when you commit to radical honesty in your relationships. Jessica lost a friendship because she told someone the truth they didn't want to hear. Was it worth it? What's the real cost of being the friend who tells it like it is?
This one's for anyone who's ever saved something that quietly changed how they see the world — and had the courage to actually live by it.
