Welcome to YOUR Wednesday night conversation! This week on Live! with Fefe & Freddy, we dove into the meaning of authenticity and how it shapes our lives.

In Just the Tip, we discussed how authenticity can mean everything from embracing your identity to breaking free from societal or religious expectations. It’s about finding what feels true for you, no matter how long it takes or how many layers you uncover along the way.
We also covered major current events, including:
Allegations surrounding Neil Gaiman have rocked the entertainment industry.
A glimmer of hope in the Middle East as Israel and Hamas agree to a ceasefire and prisoner exchange.
