This week on Adventures of Des and Cort, we start with a very real Hot Flash. How can you feel completely fine one minute… and then catch a glimpse of yourself in a mirror, a photo or a video and suddenly feel like the largest, least attractive version of yourself to ever exist? Make it make sense 😅📸
Then things get real.
Des shares that she didn’t have a Hot Flash this week because she is sitting in deep gratitude. After a mammogram in March, she got the call no one wants. A suspicious spot. She walks us through the waiting, the appointments, the unknown and everything that comes with it. The mental spiral. The fear. The what ifs. And ultimately… the relief of good news. It’s a reminder of what actually matters and how quickly perspective can shift. 💗
We also talk about how Josh lovingly roasts Cort for thinking more like a man than she’d like to admit. She knows she cannot be the only female out here with these thought patterns.
Des brings up a photo that still makes her laugh every single time. Hard hats that did not fit. Shorts. And a very bold hand placement that deserves its own moment in history. She keeps it in her closet as a reminder that no outfit could ever be worse than that day. Honestly… grounding.
Cort thinks it might be time to revisit Des’s bunker building era because the world is getting a little too wild for comfort. Prepared or paranoid? We will circle back.
We also dive into chapters 7 through 9 of our Besties Book Club pick The Women. Things are getting intense and we are loving the bond between Frankie, Ethel and Barb. It really makes you think about what it would feel like to be thrown into something that heavy with no preparation.
Of course there are tangents, sidebars and plenty of yapping because that is who we are.
Gratitude. Body image spirals. Hard hats. Possible bunkers. Just another week.
