Doree and Kate sit down with producer, writer, and director Priyanka Mattoo (The Homestay), who discusses how her experience dealing with post-partum depression after the birth of her son helped her get serious about her self-care. Priyanka also walks us through her simple but effective skincare routine, and tips us off to the Maybelline lip stain she's been wearing for over ten years. (Follow Priyanka on Twitter.) 

Doree and Kate also celebrate Doree's big news: she quit her job! Doree talks about how she made the decision to leave Buzzfeed, and how she's taking some time to rest and reconnect with herself. Kate grapples with staying politically engaged while not binging on 24-hour news and Twitter, while also dealing with a lice outbreak at home. You might say she's "bugging out." (You might also say that pun is terrible.)
