Things We Swore We'd Hate... But Now We're Obsessed
Share
Have you ever judged something so hard… only to turn around and become absolutely obsessed with it?
Yeah, same. 😂
In this week's episode of Burnt Out Perfectionist, we’re spilling all the tea on the foods, apps, fashion choices, and life hacks we once mocked — and now can’t live without. No shame. No regrets. Just a full-on glow-up.
What We're Talking About This Week
We’ve all had those moments:
- Crocs? Used to laugh. Now own three pairs.
- TikTok? Thought it was for kids. Now we’re addicted.
- Laundry baskets in every room? Used to think it was overkill. Now it’s a lifestyle.
In this hilarious episode, we’re confessing all the things we used to hardcore judge — and now proudly love. From wide-leg jeans to chore charts to Costco memberships (yes, we said it), we’re sharing how our taste evolved, our ADHD brains adapted, and how we learned to lean into what actually works for us.
Some Highlights from the Episode
👖 Fashion Glow-Ups:
Crocs, Birkenstocks, fanny packs, matching sets — we dragged them before, and now they’re in our weekly rotation. Comfort > everything.
🥑 Food Trends:
Sushi, Brussels sprouts, oat milk, protein coffee... Turns out our taste buds grew up, and honestly? We're better for it.
🧠 Life Hacks We Swore Off:
Meal planning, chore charts, even making the bed every day (who are we?!). ADHD brains love a little structure after all.
📱 Tech & Social Media:
We used to roll our eyes at TikTok and influencer culture — and now we're full-blown content consumers and creators. Life is weird.
🛒 Adulting Realizations:
From car trash bags to Costco hauls to label makers — we finally get why our moms were so obsessed with this stuff.
Why We’re Owning It
The biggest lesson we learned?
People change. Taste buds change. Comfort becomes cool. And Crocs... well, Crocs slap. 😎
There's zero shame in evolving. In fact, we think it's kinda iconic to look back and realize how far you’ve come — even if it’s just in your shoe game. 😉
So if you’ve ever secretly fallen in love with something you used to hate, you're officially in the no-shame zone with us. 💖
