Cai Society is a podcast for anyone navigating the messy, hilarious, and unexpectedly humbling reality of your 30s, exploring what it really feels like to start over with equal parts humor and vulnerability.
Send us Fan Mail I’ve been feeling really overwhelmed lately—and I think a lot of it has to do with how much my life has changed since I started this podcast. When I first started Cai Society, I was in a completely different place. I was living at home, single, and honestly just trying to rebuild after a failed engagement. And now… my life looks really different. I’m living on my own, I’m in a relationship, and I’m navigating a version of life I haven’t fully caught up to ye...

Dating in Your 30s: Leaving the Past in the Past
Send a text Dating in your 30s hits different. There’s more self-awareness… and a lot more emotional baggage. In this episode, I talk about breaking off an engagement, trying (and failing) to rekindle a relationship from my COVID era, and the mindset shift that finally helped me move forward: don’t hold onto people just because you have history together. I share why I re-recorded this episode to keep it honest but intentional, what I’m learning about dating with boundaries, and how I’m ...

Money in Your 30s: Shame, Stress, and Stability
Send a text Let’s talk about money. The real version — not the girlboss version, not the finance-bro version, but the emotional, messy, honest one. In this episode, I open up about money in your 30s: the shame, the stress, the comparison trap, and the quiet fear that you should be “better by now.” I share my own relationship with budgeting, debt, career instability, and the pressure I’ve felt to look like I have everything under control — even when I didn’t. We talk about: • Why m...

The Reinvention Era
Send a text Starting over isn’t always a bold, empowering choice — sometimes it’s something that happens to you. In the first full episode of Cai Society, I talk about what it really feels like to start over in your 30s when a job ends, a relationship shifts, or a version of your life no longer fits.

Welcome to the Society
Send a text Welcome to Cai Society 🤍 In this first mini episode, I’m introducing the podcast, the chaos, and the very real reason this show exists.

The Scariest Parts of Your 30s
Send a text Let’s talk about the parts of your 30s that no one warned us about — the ones that quietly sneak up on you and make you say, wait…is this normal?

We get into dating (which ...

Plot Twist—My 30s Didn't Read the Script
Send a text So…remember the life plan we all made in our teens and 20s? Yeah. Turns out our 30s did not get the memo. In this mini episode, I talk about how I fully expected to be married with kids by 28 — and how life took one look at that plan and said, “Cute. Let’s do something completely different.” From choosing a non-traditional path, traveling and performing for years, to realizing I somehow went from “first to get married” to “last on the list,” this episode is about...
