Been following Rose since the salty crisp days of yore. Absolutely LOVE the pod/ group chat. It’s like listening to an older cooler cousin I never had!

Frequently Asked Questions About Actually Trying
What is Actually Trying about and what kind of topics does it cover?
A weekly self-improvement and psychology show that tests a single idea in real life, reporting back with candid field notes rather than polished perfection. Episodes mix personal experiments, humorous anecdotes, and practical takeaways to help busy listeners cut through overwhelm, decide what's worth trying, and ignore what isn't. Notable throughlines include parenting, mental health, and everyday experiments in sleep, diet, technology use, and stress management, all delivered with a warm, irreverent voice. The format's strength lies in transparency—views on practicality, safety, and real-world constraints stand out as a helpful compass for listeners seeking clear, actionable guidance rather than generic optimizations.
