The team reveals their current obsessions, from David Beckham's supplement to the leather green Rowan Rose runway look.

The episode begins with the hosts introducing themselves and discussing their outfits, including brands like Magda Butrim, Reformation, and Mango. They transition to health and wellness topics, starting with the IM8 supplement endorsed by David Beckham, which friends have reported improves digestive health and sleep. Hania shares her experience with a vibration plate for debloating and circulation, and mentions red light therapy services in Dubai. She details a seven-day water-only fast she did in Thailand, involving bentonite clay and psyllium husk to detoxify, and recommends a 'glow rotation' of steam room, ice bath, and sauna. The team debates the suitability of ice baths for women based on differing studies. Hiba talks about blue light glasses from biohacker David Asprey. The conversation shifts to Ramadan, with the Lana Hotel's Kayali Ramadan tent and frustrations about overstimulating iftar events versus more relaxed suhoors. They mention cultural events like the Picasso exhibition at the Louvre Abu Dhabi and the Grand Cairo Museum. In fashion finds, Hiba highlights the brand Rowan Rose and its leather green trench coat from a recent runway show, while Tala recommends the Spanish laptop bag brand Oland. They discuss fast delivery from Unas and D'Sabri's ski collection. Celebrity news includes admiration for Olivia Deen's style and criticism of Lorraine Sanchez's fashion, along with Nicki Minaj's support for Donald Trump. They touch on new reality shows like 'Desi Blink' and 'Love is Blind, Habibi'. The episode concludes with Hania discussing the stigma around non-designer fashion in the industry, advocating for self-expression over labels, and sharing anecdotes about client spending habits and luxury brand markups. The hosts wrap up by promoting a potential podcast in Kuwait.
