THE THREAD.

I should’ve drank my Tito’s and Coke and exited stage left. 🤦🏻‍♀️

written & narrated by

JOEY.

Joana "Joey" Alvarez is 36, sharp, and knows exactly how to spot a red flag—because she gets paid to.

By day, she's a merchandiser for a luxury watch company in New York. By night, she runs Red Flags, a discreet side business where clients hire her to investigate the people they're dating.

so why is her own love life a mess?

If we knew… would we make better choices?
