Hello!

This episode was such a fun time with Natalie where she shared her experience with over-agreeableness and why it matters to her. I think that despite the fact that mental health conversations have (rightfully) become important and almost ever-present online, agreeableness is not something that I think is given as much attention and thought in the greater conversations happening as it should be. Here are a few resources and articles on it that I hope serve and help you learn more about it.

Welcome to Part 2 of Going Through The Covid Motions! I had 2 more friends, Denise and Lily, share their Covid-19 experiences and how it's affected them mentally and emotionally (in this podcast, we feel our feels!). I also shared my personal experience with how this whole moment has impacted me as far as perfectionism and home-bodying goes.

Some exciting news: The podcast is now available on Apple Podcasts and Spotify! So if either of them are your preferred podcast platforms, you can subscribe to the podcast and listen on there!

Please don't forget to check out this week’s blog entry from yours truly, as well as another beautiful piece from Lily, who’s featured in this episode.

I’m wishing you a wonderful week ahead!
