When life has handed you more than your fair share of grief, loss, and plot twists, it can feel impossible to believe you’ll ever feel light again. In this intro to Unpacked & Unfiltered, Bexx and Noie pull back the curtain on why they started this podcast and what they hope it becomes for the women who find it. They talk about being drawn to each other not because life was neat and tidy, but because they recognized that rare combination of depth, darkness, and a very real, very stubborn light that refuses to go out.

Instead of pretending to have it all figured out, they invite you into a passion project that’s still in motion—where “figuring it out” looks like following what genuinely lights you up, even if that path is messy. This episode sets the tone for what’s coming: conversations about hard shit, happy shit, wild shit, and all the in–between moments where you’re trying not to lose yourself.
