The Best of The Scarlet Edit: One Year, Seven Women, and the Stories That Stuck With Me

Next week marks one year of The Scarlet Edit, and I wanted to do something a little different to lead into the anniversary episode. So I went back through my guest conversations from 2026 so far and pulled clips from seven women whose stories stuck with me. They're stitched together into one episode, and the whole thing plays like a sampler of what this show has been for the last twelve months.

If you've been listening since the beginning, you'll recognize these voices. If you're new, consider this your invitation to go back through the catalog. Every episode these clips came from is linked in the show notes.

What About Me? On Self-Worth, Not Being Chosen, and Being Single in Midlife

I've had my dog for fifteen and a half years. And in the voice I made up for him, one of the things I've said the most over those years is, "Hey guys, what about me?" I usually say it when I'm getting ready to leave and he's prancing after me with that look in his eye. It's cute. It's silly.

A couple of weeks ago I stopped and asked myself why I say that. Why that specific phrase. And the answer came back fast: I've been feeling some version of "what about me?" since I was a kid.

This is the reflection that came out of sitting with that.

Listener Questions: What I'd Do Differently, How I Date Now, and What I'd Tell the Other Woman

I asked my Instagram followers what they wanted me to talk about that I hadn't covered yet, and the questions that came in were so good I built a whole episode around five of them. This is what happens when you ask a community of women who've been through it what they actually want to know — they don't ask softballs.

So I'm going to walk through the five I picked and what I said in the episode, because some of these answers I had genuinely never said out loud before.
