Pretty Unstable

By Klailea

Welcome to Pretty Unstable — the podcast for girls who are equal parts pretty and just a little unstable.

Hosted by Klailea, this is where internet culture, girlhood, femininity, relationships, confidence, beauty, awkward moments, oversharing, social spirals, and late-night thoughts all collide.

One episode might feel like a sleepover conversation, the next like a voice memo sent during a mild identity crisis. Either way, it’s honest, self-aware, dramatic, comforting, and way too relatable.

Because being a girl is weird, and somehow we’re all pretending it’s normal.

Defending The Hills We'd All Die On...
Klailea is saying the hills she'd die on out loud.. andddd some of yours!! The parenting ones even though she isn't a parent... that people will side-eye, the friendship rules she refuses to bend on, & the "that's just my personality" defense that gets used to excuse way too much. Same goes for hiding behind your struggles, which she has opinions on too. Some of these are petty & some got uncomfortably specific the second she said them out loud. She isn't changing her mind on a single one, but she'd love to know which ones you'd fight her on. Welcome back to Pretty Unstable!!

Addressing Your Assumptions About Me...
In this episode, Klailea sits down to actually address the assumptions people make about her — the ones that show up in every comment section and DM. Getting married at 23, whether her family relationship is as perfect as it looks, what it's actually been like being online since she was a preteen — she's getting into all of it, no filter, no rehearsed answers. Married young means people assume things about how it happened, why it happened, and what it's cost her — most of it wrong. Family isn't as clean as it looks on a feed. And nearly a decade of being watched since she was a kid has left its mark in ways she's never actually said out loud until now. She's not tying any of it up neatly — just laying it out exactly as it is.

The Pretty + UNSTABLE SIDE Of Influencer Events You're Never Shown
Klailea sits down to unpack what influencer events actually look like behind the polished photo dumps — the getting-ready panic, the forced small talk, the performance of looking like you belong in a room you're not sure you belong in. She's not here to give you a lesson on how to handle it better or a wrapped-up takeaway. She's just telling you the truth of what it actually felt like, the parts that never make it into the caption. This episode is Pretty Unstable at its core: the glamorous version everyone sees online, and the unstable reality underneath it that nobody talks about. Klailea gets specific about the moments that actually happened — not the highlight reel — and leaves it there, no resolution, no advice, just the truth said out loud.

A Pretty UNSTABLE Life Growing Up As A Youtube Kid
Klailea started working before she even knew what a job was.. she was an online star and she was loving it! In this episode, she talks through what it was actually like growing up as a YouTube kid - the fame that showed up before she could make sense of it, getting paid as a child, and addresses all the drama that has hit the internet on YouTube kids. It's nostalgic, a little messy, and more honest than anything she's said about this before.. because she's grown up, she sees it as it really is. If you've ever wondered what it's actually like on the other side of a childhood spent online, this is that - no filter, just the truth as she lived it.

The Pretty Girls Are Getting Married
Getting engaged is supposed to be the easy part — before the planning, before the stress, just her and a ring and pure happiness. Nobody tells you it comes with its own chaos: the fights about whose family gets told first, the expectations that materialize out of nowhere the second you say yes, and the arguments with your mom that somehow every single one of us goes through no matter how close you are. This week Klailea gets into what her engagement period actually looked like — the drama, the pressure to keep both sides of the family happy, and the parts nobody warns you about. Then she gets into the wedding itself — the nerves that hit different than you'd expect, the bridal party drama that somehow finds its way into even the most low-key friend groups, and the never-ending question of who actually makes the guest list without starting a war. If you're engaged, getting there, or just love a messy behind-the-scenes story, this one's for you.

Pretty UNSTABLE Date & Engagement Horror Stories
This week's episode is a PU Debrief — no topic, no plan, just Klailea reacting in real time to fan-submitted dating horror stories and the engagement stories that made her gasp out loud. Uncut means uncut: the "wait what," the "no he did NOT," the long pauses where she's genuinely processing what she just read. If you sent something in, there's a good chance it's in here. She's not pretending to have this all figured out or wrapping it up with some neat takeaway — some of these stories don't have a lesson, they're just insane and she needed to talk about them out loud. Grab your comfort item of choice, this one's messy in the best way.

Pretty Girls Have Dating Horror Stories Too
This week I'm getting into my full dating history — every era, every red flag I ignored, every lesson I definitely didn't learn the first time. We're going back to high school, when I was serial-monogamous in the most chaotic way possible, jumping from boyfriend to boyfriend like my life depended on it. I'm telling the actual horror stories — the cringe, the drama, the moments I'd rather forget but definitely haven't. It's not a cute glow-up story with a bow on it. I'm not going to pretend I figured it all out and now I give great advice — I'm just telling you exactly how unhinged it actually was, situation by situation, so you can laugh, cringe, and maybe recognize a little bit of yourself in it too.

A PU DEBRIEF 002: Unstable Girls, Real Talk & Behind the Scenes of Social Media Drama
Klailea is back, she is NOT okay, and she's bringing all of it to the mic this week. We're talking subtweets, mysterious unfollows, and group chats that spiral into full-blown chaos over one misunderstood Instagram clip.. It's giving unhinged, it's giving messy, and it's really showing some true colors. Then things get real. Klailea rips the filter off social media and gets into what's actually happening behind the highlight reels — the delulu, the toxic undercurrents, the exhausting need to look like you have it together for people you've never even met. Raw, relatable, and possibly the wake-up call your feed needs. Press play and prepare to spiral with her. Klailea is back, she is NOT okay, and she's bringing all of it to the mic this week.

Unstable Girls & Their UNSTABLE Ex-Best Friends
She wanted a million friends. She has zero. This week on Pretty Unstable, Klailea is finally answering the question everyone in her comments keeps asking: is it the friends, or is it HER? Buckle up, because she's dragging us through every single friendship era — high school drama that was NOT actually that deep, college "friends" who were only there for the free rides and the boys, and adult friendships that get messier the older she gets. Yes, “Spencer” (given nickname;) is back. Yes, it's still awkward. Yes, she's spilling things she probably shouldn't. And just when you think it can't get messier — it does. Klailea reads FOUR unhinged listener submissions about friendship breakups gone wrong: jealous third wheels losing it in a library, best friends getting replaced as bridesmaids after a group text, situationships that lasted literal YEARS with zero payoff, and a friend group implosion over... ice cream. It's chaotic, it's a little cringe, it's deeply relatable, and by the end you'll be questioning every friendship you've ever had. Don't miss it — and stick around for next week, because the "Spencer" story isn't over and neither is the tea on Klailea's college social life.

A PU DEBRIEF 001: A Pretty Girls Oversharing Ranting Sesh
We're back and Klailea's got a lot to say. This episode is exactly what it sounds like — an unfiltered, no-agenda catch up where we get into all of it. She's spilling about birthdays as adults, growing up, the feelings nobody really talks about when life starts looking different than you expected. Klailea's not holding back. From the realities of being married and what visiting family actually looks like behind closed doors, to holiday chaos and the kind of drama that only makes sense in retrospect — this one covers everything we've been sitting on. Grab something cozy, because pretty girls are oversharing today.

Unstable Girlies Write EVEN MORE Unstable Diary Entries...
Klailea is reading her actual journal entries this episode — hers AND URS — none of them are cute.. but all of them are chaotic (just the way we like it!) This is the chaotic girl chat @ 2am about your diary entries you'd delete if you thought someone might actually see it, the thoughts you have when nobody's performing for anyone. Pretty girls have unhinged inner monologues too, and Klailea's proving it one entry at a time. If you've ever reread your own journal and thought "who wrote this and are they okay," this episode is for you. No resolution arc, no lesson learned — just the unfiltered, slightly feral truth of what girls actually think when they think no one's watching.

Unstable Girls Move In With Their Man & Immediately Regret Everything
Klailea just moved in with Brady and she has thoughts. In this episode, she’s spilling every unfiltered detail no one prepares you for — the towel etiquette nobody agrees on, the emotional labor nobody warned her about, and the exact moment she realized “for better or worse” was not a metaphor. It’s messy, it’s funny, and it’s giving real-time identity crisis dressed in a cute fit. Klailea also reads and reacts to fan-submitted moving-in-together stories throughout the episode, because apparently she’s not the only one questioning her life choices. Expect chaos, expect solidarity, expect to feel weirdly seen if you’ve ever shared a bathroom with a man.

Pretty Girls Who Stalk & Call It Manifesting
We need to talk about the list. You know the one - the notes app document from 2019, or that paper you wrote back when you were 13, that has "6'2", funny, loves his mom, has a retirement account" written out like a job posting for a husband. This episode gets into all of it: how I found my person, the light investigavite (stalking) work that may or may not have involved knowing his siblings' names, ex-girlfriends, and every job he's had, before we had a real conversation. And the very thin line between manifesting a relationship and just... deciding someone is yours before they've agreed to that. We're getting honest about what it actually looks like when you're in a situationship that only exists in one person's head - and somehow it still works out. But we're also going deep on the list itself. Is having a detailed vision of your future partner helping you or just setting you up to overlook the right person because he didn't check the box you wrote at 13?! Because there's a version of the list that protects you, and a version that becomes a way to avoid anything real. This episode is for everyone who's ever been so sure about someone with absolutely zero evidence - and for anyone still holding onto a list they might need to burn.

Pretty Girls and Their Roommates Who Ruin Everything
College is supposed to be the best years of your life — but nobody warns you about the roommate who microwaves fish at midnight, the registration system that crashes right before you can enroll in your last required course, or the move-in day that somehow takes six hours and three trips to Target. This week, we’re diving headfirst into the chaotic, cringe-worthy, and occasionally traumatic world of college life, and we’re not holding back. From nightmare roommate situations to bureaucratic registration nightmares that would make a grown adult cry, we’ve gathered the wildest stories from students across the country. Whether you’re a freshman bracing for impact, a senior who survived to tell the tale, or a parent living in blissful ignorance of what really goes on in those dorms — this episode is for you. Grab your iced coffee, settle in, and take comfort in knowing that whatever happened to you freshman year, someone out there had it worse.
