The second season of Engatilhadas is back with a bang, tackling a topic that is sure to hit our triggers: do we really need to be useful all the time? In this special premiere episode, Gabie Fernandes, Giovanna Heliodoro, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome the amazing Titi Müller to discuss the constant pressure we feel to be productive and useful in every aspect of life. Whether at work, in motherhood, in relationships, or even in our hobbies, we often feel the need to produce something of value or achieve immediate results. Is it possible to find a balance between productivity and rest? How can we deal with the anxiety of feeling useless when we’re not producing? Are we truly enjoying our leisure time without thinking about turning it into something profitable or “Instagrammable”?

In this second episode of the new season of Engatilhadas, Gabie Fernandes, Giovanna Heliodoro, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome renowned psychoanalyst Maria Homem to discuss a fundamental question: is therapy really for everyone? In a deep yet relaxed conversation, they explore the differences between psychology and psychoanalysis, when and why to seek therapy, and whether this process truly works for everyone. After all, has therapy become a status symbol, or is it genuinely a necessary path to self-knowledge and mental health?

In the third episode of our second season, Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome actress, comedian, screenwriter, and Drag Race Brasil judge Bruna Braga to dive into a conversation about self-esteem. After all, what does genuine self-love really mean? Is there a line between loving yourself and thinking you're better than others? And why do we often only feel beautiful enough when someone else validates us—especially when that validation comes from men? In this sharp and candid chat, Bruna and our hosts share personal stories about how self-esteem is built (or broken) and explore how social media impacts this perception. They also discuss the connection between self-esteem and work, and touch on a delicate topic: is making jokes about your own flaws actually healthy?

In the fourth episode of the second season of Engatilhadas, Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome artist, entrepreneur, and podcaster Lela Brandão for an important (and quite triggering!) conversation about independence. Is the much-dreamed-of independence really everything it’s made out to be? Does being an independent woman bring you closer to freedom or distance you from others? Is there a “right” way to be free? Let’s unpack the paths (and missteps) of those striving to take control of their own lives. Between the loneliness of rising, the fear of seeming ungrateful for growing, and the pressure of handling everything alone, we’ll discuss the challenges and illusions behind the independence narrative. From Trad Wives to the romanticization of freedom on social media — how real is this so-called independence, after all? Or is it all just a carefully constructed illusion on the internet?

Today on Engatilhadas, Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome Martina Oliveira—one of the biggest adult content creators on the internet—to open up about everything involving love, jealousy, cheating, monogamy, non-monogamy, and… social media exposure. In other words: RELATIONSHIPS AND THEIR TRIGGERS! If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s okay to feel attracted to other people while in a relationship, or questioned the boundaries of sharing your love life online, this episode is for you! After all, who hasn’t felt that inner conflict between what’s “right” and “wrong” in love? Relationships today come in many forms—especially in such a hyper-connected world where everyone openly talks (and posts) about their unique experiences. So… monogamy vs. non-monogamy? Is consuming adult content cheating? And what about creating that kind of content—is that cheating too?

In the fifth episode of Engatilhadas, Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri welcome content creator and podcaster Barbra Marcondes for a sharp conversation about sisterhood and the limits of empathy among women. Does every woman deserve sorority? Is it possible to criticize without being labeled sexist? Is female rivalry the end of the road? And do some people really need to be “disempowered”? Through memes, serious debates, and many personal triggers, the Engatilhadas team dives deep into the complexities of female solidarity—especially on social media, within activist spaces, and in the workplace. We’ll talk about selective empathy, toxic feminism, cancel culture, and how to build a safe space among women, even when opinions and behaviors differ. An episode to reflect, question, and even disagree.

In today’s episode of Engatilhadas, we welcome one of Brazil’s biggest influencers and entrepreneurs: Bianca Andrade! Coming from the Favela da Maré in Rio de Janeiro, she built her own empire with the makeup brand Boca Rosa, is a pioneer in online content creation, and a proud mom. She joins us to talk about a topic that sparks a lot of debate: ambition. Why does dreaming big make people so uncomfortable? What are the ethical limits when it comes to achieving success? Why is it that when a woman is ambitious, she’s often labeled as a “scammer” or “opportunist”? Is anything fair game when it comes to climbing the ladder? Shoutout to Maria de Fátima! (lol) We’re also diving into social schemes, selective canceling, and the eternal dilemma of staying true to your values vs. going after what you want—no matter the cost. Does being too nice get in the way? Is there room for ambition in activism? And when does ambition cross the line and become dangerous?

Giovanna Heliodoro, Gabie Fernandes, Jana Viscardi, and Nátaly Neri are joined by actress and influencer Valen Bandeira to react to the triggers you sent in, our beloved audience! We’re diving deep into the issues you shared, and the topics are wide-ranging, okay?! From changing careers to trauma involving powdered milk (yes, it’s back!), touching on perfectionism, artificial intelligence, and the dreaded ghosting. And there’s MORE! Why do we always feel like we’re not enough? How do we deal with all this self-pressure? How can we overcome the feeling that we’re constantly failing or falling short? And what about comparison? Just typing all this already triggered us!
