Educated Messes: Mental Health, Relationships, Work, & Well-Being

Are “Shoulds” Making Us Unhappy?


Listen Later

In this episode we talk about “shoulds” — the voices in our heads that tell us what we should be doing, caring about, or working towards — and how they can get in the way of our happiness. We discuss how they originate from a variety of places, from society and religion to family and peers, and how they show up in the decisions we make in our day-to-day lives. We discuss how to approach these thoughts in a more balanced way and explore some tools to uncover, reframe, and dismantle our shoulds so we can own what we really want in life.

Kyla sabotages Kelsey by letting her record through her headphones for the first 30 minutes*. We get heated talking about our thoughts on marriage, children, and success and find out Elle Woods was our mutual blueprint. Stick around to hear Kelsey aerates her wine. Loudly.

*(Kyla would like the record to show that the motive behind this is unconfirmed. No further comments at this time).


Note: Our offer to include free ad reads for BIPOC-owned businesses still stands and will continue to stand.
