Win For Life (With Jenn)

Cassandra's sister is here! "Win for Life" and what we dream of having forever, like free coffee, concert tickets, or no more bills. We also laugh about funny TikToks, with Meredith admitting she'll miss the jewelry reveal videos that brought her so much entertainment. Along the way, we poke fun at ourselves for aging into phrases like “reels” and “books on tape.” Jenn reads off great responses from our followers about what they’d love to win for life, from free gas, crab legs, and steak to endless Amazon deliveries.

About your hosts

Hey there! I’m Meredith - podcast host, storyteller, and professional over-thinker.
If you love retail chaos, workplace absurdities, and stories that make you laugh at the ridiculousness of it all, The Clopen Effect is for you. It’s the podcast that proves working in retail is basically a social experiment, and we’re all just trying to figure it out, one day at time.
And then there’s Anxiety Makes Me Poop - the podcast where we say the quiet part out loud. Life is messy, anxiety is real, and sometimes the best way to heal is through laughter, real talk, and knowing you’re not alone.
Between the two, we cover everything from Captain Obvious workplace moments to why your brain decides to spiral at 2 AM - all with a mix of humor, honesty, and the occasional TMI moment (because let’s be honest, we’ve all been there).
My goal is simple: to make you laugh, think, and feel a little lighter. So whether you’re tuning in for retail rants or deep talks wrapped in humor, welcome, I’m glad you’re here. Let’s get into it. 🎙️✨

Meet Cassandra – The Heart and Hilarity Behind the Mic 🎙️✨
Cassandra might say she “just shows up,” but let’s be honest - she’s the true entertainment of The Clopen Effect and Anxiety Makes Me Poop Podcasts. With a knack for storytelling, a sharp wit, and the perfect mix of sincerity and humor, she keeps us all laughing while dropping some amazing insights along the way.
She loves her husband, adores her pup Nicky, cherishes her friends, and is always ready for the next adventure. Whether cracking us up with a wild driving story or keeping it real with heartfelt moments, Cassandra brings the magic that makes these podcasts what they are.
Tune in and let her take you on a 'ride' - you never know where the conversation will go, but you know it’ll be worth it. 🎤💛🐶✈️
