In this episode, we unpack the viral video of a soft life content creator who thought she’d found paradise—only to realize she married a "monster." We break down how the soft life aesthetic can actually hold women back, pushing them into narrow, performative boxes that aren’t as glamorous as they seem.


We also dig into how American exceptionalism fuels classism and the harmful status markers it creates, plus why the obsession with fashion dictated by male suitors is the worst part of soft life content. Spoiler: it’s all about controlling women’s choices.


Catch our raw take on the contradictions of the soft life, and how it’s more limiting than liberating.
