Episode Notes:

In this episode, lovely listeners, we are focusing on mental health and the Black Lives Matter movement. We’re getting a little vulnerable—delving into a little bit of our past struggles with mental health, and how we each manage it today. We also share our opinions on the BLM movement, and talk about what we (and you) can do to be an ally and support the Black community during these times and going forward. These have been crazy times. We hope you find something positive in this episode to help you get through it.
