“Take your time, as much as you need”

“That’s gotta be so difficult to be growing up with”

“I can see how that kind of triggers something from the past”

Read those sentences again and play our new favorite game, ‘Who Said It - Joey The Bachelor or Your Therapist?’ America’s sweet tennis-professional-next-door has BetterHelp shaking in their boots.

It begs the question, what do women in the dating pool really want? Is the bar really that underground - we’re freaking out over a man who…. listens? With all the drama that goes on, you can’t help but wonder how producers on a reality show would portray you after a few drinks. Probably pretty close to Pedro Pascal oversharing at the SAG awards.

The TLDR:

  • Weekly Report

  • NYC Volunteer opportunity

  • Career Fair (new!)

  • Tweets

BTW — In case you haven’t noticed, we moved Newsletter platforms! This is our 3rd time changing (almost like moving apartments every year you live in New York) but finally feels like the right fit. If you ever want to read our past editions, you can do so here.

✍️ Weekly REPORT

Eating: These TJ’s ice cream sandwiches have drastically improved my evening routine.

Playing: The Exxon Mobile Oil-Rigging Job Offer is my favorite viral prank at the moment. Perfect for any parent, significant other, or sibling in your life who doesn’t have TikTok or Instagram (it’ll hit Reels by next month).

Obsession: The GUTS World Tour kicked off last week and Miss. Rodrigo is giving everything and more! Outfit inspo here.

Recommending: For everyone out there with commitment issues: Nuuly cured my shopping addiction. Formal functions, Eras Tour, Halloween Costumes, work clothes — I haven’t spent a cent outside of my monthly subscription. I’m just a renter at heart ❤️ 

Treat: I’m trying this new thing where I only drink coffee at home during the week and ‘treat’ myself to $8.95 iced coffee on the weekends. Because I cannot even believe we’re paying that much. In this economy?!

📆 IRL: The 5-9 After the 9-5

In partnership with God’s Love We Deliver, NWMT will be sending a group of volunteers to a kitchen shift in NYC. Donate your time, meet some 20-somethings, and give back! Sign up here.
