From the outside, tea time seems like this glamorous affair—polished, poised, and proper. But in between the soft clinks of fine china, the illusion of glamour and elegance starts to fade. The conversations are unfiltered and real. It’s a time for the girlies to come together, spill the tea, and remind each other that we’re all figuring it out, one conversation at a time. Tune in EVERY WEDNESDAY because the most real conversations always happen over tea 🍵✨ YouTube: Tea Time with Janice TikTok: @teatimewithjanice Instagram: @teatimewithjanice
