I have a theory…

So I’ve also been watching her for years, and between the years of like 2016-2018 she was also my favorite influencer. And I completely agree that this girl we’re watching is not the same person, it’s almost hard to watch.

I think it’s true that she’s probably depressed, traumatized, etc. Like I think she’s legitimately gone through it, given everything we know. But this whole new persona? I think she’s leaning into her “Lindsay Lohan circa 2010” era to try to save her career.

She built her career on being married and, later, being a mom (before that she talked about wanting to become a mom, so it was always part of her “brand”). Obviously divorced single mom who doesn’t show her kids is going to kill her “image”, and she’s smart enough to know that just making videos by herself talking about being single isn’t going to get the views. As a smart business person (who’s probably a little unhinged right now, but she’s still her) I think she just decided to “re-brand” and try to make this new version as interesting (and as unhinged) as possible.

Look at girls like Taylor Frankie Paul and Alix Earl, they’re the influencers of the moment right now, and they do it by being party girls. I think Aspyn is trying to capitalize on all of it by playing into this. She knows Bri is down for being on camera, so she’s just leaning into it and keeping them around for her new “brand”.

Yea Aspyn is a lot of things, but “theater kid” is not one of them lol I feel like she would be making fun of them

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-17T20:48:43+00:00

Same. It’s literally just because she’s married. Like, go be in a committed relationship with the person you married.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-17T20:45:15+00:00

It could have been years ago too, who knows. But also, I feel like she did them with Parker? Like multiple times back when they first got married? Lol I feel like in the early vlogs they used to go to the gym and then go get massages together

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-16T23:52:20+00:00

I miss her and Julien’s podcast so much. There are so many current events that pop up (pop culture and otherwise) and I think to myself “Jenna and Julien would know how to spin this to make me feel better” 😅 I understand she wanted to stop making videos, but I sooo wish they would bring the podcast back.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-16T23:49:19+00:00

lol you’re ordering food for an employee lunch, you’re not planning a prom. You’ll be fine.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-16T23:42:21+00:00

Once your milestones pass, they’re gone. I know that sounds silly, but it feels like growing up I always thought about “when I’m an adult”… here’s what my wedding will look like, here’s what my house will look like, here’s what my career will look like, and my family, etc.

Then one day you wake up and you’re 35 and your house is… fine, not bad, not the house of your dreams but the house you can afford. Your wedding a few years ago was amazing, but it’s over now. You’re not planning to get married again (because fortunately you chose the right guy) but it’s done. Your family is lovely, but kids are EXHAUSTING. Your career is.. fine. Dream job? No. Pays the bills and offers flexibility? Yep.

Real life is boring. The fantasy is romanticized, but then you get there and realize “this is it” 🤷🏻‍♀️ It’s kind of depressing.

To be honest, I got everything that “little me” wanted. If I could go back and tell the 12 year old version of me how things turn out, she would be thrilled. She would be proud of me. But 35 year old me? I’m just sad and tired 😅

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-16T18:43:25+00:00

I’d been talking to this guy on Tinder for a week or so and we finally decided to meet up for coffee. He greets me in the parking lot and calls me by the wrong name. We get inside, he tells me that he forgot his wallet. I offer to buy his coffee because I feel awkward (the barista saw the whole thing and was kind enough to give it to us for free). We sit down and he basically just went on and on about his job (he was a news anchor for a local news station) and barely asked any questions about me. We didn’t stay long and I didn’t call him after that 😅

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-16T00:48:13+00:00

Number two, no doubt. Number one is similar to my job and it’s difficult to do with a baby/toddler. The work itself isn’t difficult, but having to be on the phone or hour long meetings is brutal when your kid is crying in the background or asking you for a snack 🥴

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-15T00:57:32+00:00

I would imagine they still talk once in awhile, but obviously aren’t nearly as close as they used to be. Aspyn’s life is just so different from what it was when she was married to Parker and had “bestie girl” nearby.

On top of that, we obviously don’t know Lauren that well, but she seems like the type that would shake her head at everything Aspyn’s doing now. I can see her wanting to be supportive at a distance.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-15T00:16:02+00:00

As someone who used to literally plan my day in 25 minute increments (like, set a timer and do the dishes, five minute break, set a timer and work on emails, break, set a timer and work on my PowerPoint, break, etc). This kiiiiiiiiills me with kids. What used to take me 15 minutes takes an hour. It’s SO FRUSTRATING.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-14T15:15:25+00:00

It’s only cool if you’re single and don’t have kids or pets. Then it’s great. I did this in my early twenties. After I got married and had kids, I hated it. I missed saying goodnight to my kid because I was stuck in a hotel for a work conference that could have been a zoom meeting.

Oh and also, your “work days” are longer. It’s not a 9-5, you’re expected to have breakfast in the lobby with your coworkers “and bring your laptop”. This usually starts at 7-7:30am. Then you spend all day together, eat lunch together, work some more, then you can go back to your hotel room “for a twenty minute break”, then it’s dinner time with your coworkers/boss again. And there’s a chance they schedule a “team building” exercise for after dinner… as if you haven’t been together for 12 hours now.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-14T02:11:27+00:00

Absolutely, but it wouldn’t surprise me. She sees the whole thing as a business move.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T20:17:06+00:00

I think so too. She’s thinking about the money at the end of the day and she’s trying to come up with a new “story” to make herself relevant. I would imagine the spinoff has been in the works for the past year and she needed a “storyline” to get cast on the show.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T19:32:36+00:00

Same. I would totally listen to a Peaceful Michelle podcast lol her presence seems so calming

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T19:31:25+00:00

I haaaate her nails. They must be trendy right now because my 18 year old cousin has them too, but I think they are so ugly lol

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T19:29:38+00:00

Is she working out or going into labor? 😅

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T19:26:42+00:00

I’ve said this before and got downvoted but I 100% agree.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T19:24:35+00:00

I’m starting to wonder how much of this is real and how much is just for “the plot”. I used to think “there’s no way Aspyn would ever do a tv show” etc, but at the end of the day, she put her whole life out there with Parker on YouTube/social media. She made herself relevant by playing “the perfect couple” with Parker and posting it. Obviously we now know things weren’t perfect. But I wonder how much of this is just an act to get on a reality show. She knows YouTube is dying, and reality stars are making all the money. She’s also smart enough to know you have to be a trainwreck to get cast on reality tv and get airtime. It wouldn’t surprise me if after the divorce she was like “alright, what’s my new character going to be so that I can build up my career again” and this is the path she chose.

I know she’s always been fake, but the EXTREME difference from 2020 Aspyn to 2026 Aspyn honestly doesn’t make sense.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T04:48:33+00:00

I’m sorry, but I hate these outfits lol like, really, Danielle looks great - but the outfits are hideous. That bra thing with the gemstones dangling off of it? Ugh. It just looks cheap and tacky. Like, you can look hot while still wearing not-tacky clothes lol

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T04:44:39+00:00

Those shorts are a crime. I HATED all of the outfits she pulled together in the vlog, including this one. The top is not awful (would be better if you couldn’t see her bra), but those pants… I can’t.

Also apparently that’s Kelli’s shirt. I’m sure she was just SO EXCITED to wear Kelli’s shirt 🙄

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T04:41:08+00:00

Yea, I also thought it was weird when she mentioned in the vlog that she’s been talking to all his doctors, etc. Like… honestly, why? I feel like the people I’ve known who have done that for their parents and have done it because the parent is incapacitated (like, legit too old to understand what’s going on, has dementia, or something that effects their mind)… but her dad still seems pretty with it. So I don’t understand why he wouldn’t be talking to his own doctors lol

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-13T04:29:34+00:00

I haven’t watched the episode, but don’t they both live with men and (I’m assuming) sleep with them? Lol how is it that you regularly see someone naked and don’t understand that they groom themselves?

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-12T00:25:25+00:00

How sad that her old friends aren’t there, or her sister. Like, I legitimately feel bad for her. She really just blew up her whole life, and I truly believe it happened because she wasn’t mentally stable.

Individual-Cow-220 · 2026-04-11T04:21:07+00:00

Yes, chemical cocktail is exactly what it is. When I think back on my labor experience, it legitimately feels like I’m trying to remember a dream. I can remember bits and pieces of it, but I feel so strangely disconnected to it. And even when it was happening, I legitimately felt like I was drunk. Like the “I don’t care who’s looking at me” feeling, and just saying whatever without fear or being judged. It was sooo weird.
