Delusional Diaries

this week on Delusional Diaries, the girls are joined by their new, but already very close, friend: Greta Louise Tomé. this episode has it all: they get into how they first met, the unexpected evolution of their friendship, and why being stuck together in Australia somehow fast-tracked them into “we’re basically family now” territory… but of course, that’s not all (as per usual)!

naturally, the conversation takes a turn into relationships, career paths, and the reality behind the lives everyone thinks are perfect online. they talk dating a pilot (and whether that’s actually a red flag), getting married young, and the difference between choosing someone at 25 vs. 35. there’s also discussions about therapy vs. “I’ll just deal with it myself,” the concept of delusional confidence, and why the way you think about your life might actually be shaping it more than you realize.

Oh, and the craziness you know & love? it is also very much present. we’re talking influencer secrets, iPhone camera conspiracies, random wellness debates, and a surprise reveal that no one saw coming. somewhere between serious life advice and absolutely unserious yapping sessions, the girls also get into how to actually meet people, stop giving closed-off energy, and romanticize your life a little more. it’s exactly what you’d expect: just three friends oversharing and somehow making it make sense.

this week on Delusional Diaries, the girls dive straight into chaos as Jaz recounts a week-long internet spiral after a TikTok misunderstanding turned into full-blown drama. what started as an accidental follow and a harmless message quickly snowballed into viral screenshots, missing context, and millions of views, along with a wave of hate comments that seriously impacted her mental health. they unpack how quickly narratives can twist online, why being misunderstood hits harder than criticism, and the emotional toll of watching strangers decide who you are without the full story.

from there, the conversation shifts into a broader discussion about navigating negativity as creators. they reflect on Reddit rabbit holes, the addictive cycle of reading comments, and the long-term impact of internalizing other people’s opinions. the girls get candid about anxiety, hormones, coping mechanisms, and learning to stop chasing universal approval. they also debate manifestation, self-perception, and how constantly trying to “fix” yourself based on criticism can dull your personality and make you lose sight of reality.

of course, the episode balances vulnerability with classic “delusional diaries” energy. they talk about the “people hate you every day” mindset, breaking toxic habits, and why you’ll never win if you try to please everyone online. the conversation touches on performative activism, when to speak up versus amplify others, and the pressure creators feel to comment on everything. It’s messy, honest, and relatable: covering internet drama, mental health, growth, and the ongoing mission to stay confident (and a little delusional) in a world that’s always ready to misunderstand you.

this week on Delusional Diaries, Halley and Jaz are taking it all the way back to the early covid days, and realizing just how insane that era actually was. what started as a “two-week break” turned into a full identity crisis, and the girls unpack exactly where they were when everything shut down. from Halley barely surviving unpaid internships, college, and New York burnout, to Jaz thriving in her corporate era before getting abruptly pulled into HR for a literal covid exposure scandal, their origin stories are crazy, funny and life-altering. it’s the kind of hindsight that makes you go… wait, that actually changed everything.

they get real about how losing their routines, jobs, and sense of normalcy forced them into completely different paths: ones that ultimately led them to where they are now, together in the studio. from getting laid off and spiraling into depression, to starting TikTok “as a joke” and accidentally building careers, they talk about the weird in-between phase of doing nothing, doing too much, and trying to figure out who you are when everything familiar disappears. it’s honest, relatable, reflective, and lowkey proof that sometimes your lowest point is actually the setup.

of course, it wouldn’t be Delusional Diaries without the side quests. the episode spirals into thrift store hustles turned mini empires, fake designer accusations, high school party lore, and the kind of crazy teenage decisions that somehow make sense in retrospective. they discuss parenting topics & there’s also random debates, questionable choices, and a lot of “why were we like this?” energy. we’re sure that, you’ll find yourself in this episode, you’ll look back & reflect with the girls, and laugh just as much as they did…

this week on delusional diaries, halley and jaz are all over the place in the best way, starting with losing their voices, random health spirals, and immediately getting irritated by the internet. from unsolicited outfit commentary to people creating problems out of thin air, they get into why being perceived online is a losing game, and why sometimes you just have to laugh and move on (or at least pretend to).

then it’s full-on life logistics mode as halley dives into planning her “not a wedding” wedding, and realizes it’s basically… a wedding. they break down everything from vendors and food to guest dynamics, timing stress, and the very real pressure of making sure everyone has a good time. it’s less about tradition and more about creating a night that actually feels fun, which somehow comes with its own level of chaos. meanwhile, home renovations, decor decisions, and spending spirals are in full swing, because apparently everything happens all at once.

and because nothing stays normal for long, the episode takes a hard left: wild stories from the engagement party, lost luggage drama, matcha obsession updates, and a passionate rant about people who don’t pick up after their dogs. they also get into jewelry dilemmas, their blocks of the week, apartment decisions, and the tiny inconveniences that somehow take up your entire day. it’s unhinged, it’s relatable, and it’s exactly the kind of chaotic life update you’d expect from your favorite duo.

this week on delusional diaries, Halley and Jaz are finally back from their very long stay down under and debriefing everything that went down in Australia. what started as a brand trip quickly turned into a full-blown adventure when their flight home got unexpectedly canceled, leaving them stranded for a few extra days. what could’ve been a travel nightmare actually became a blessing in disguise: after days of packed schedules and filming content, they suddenly had time to slow down, explore, and actually enjoy the trip like normal humans instead of “working girls” on influencer duty.

the girls get into the chaos of international travel delays, the oddly specific stress of canceled long-haul flights, and the bizarre feeling of manifesting something you joked about just hours earlier. they also talk about the unique dynamic of brand trips, where you sometimes meet people for the first time and immediately jump into the deepest level of friendship: traveling together. from bonding with greta and sydney to the strange intimacy of spending 11 straight days with people you barely knew before, they unpack how those trips can fast-track friendships in a way normal life never really does.

of course, the episode is also a classic post-trip catch-up. they reflect on the surreal experience of living out something they talked about manifesting on the podcast, the difference between content trips and real vacations, and the small moments that ended up meaning the most once the cameras were off. between travel chaos, friendship lore, and the general delirium that comes from too many long flights and too little sleep, it’s a chaotic, reflective, and very delusional diaries kind of episode.
