This is a continuation of where I left off 4 years ago. Only now, life looks different.

I built the routine, the career, the version of stability I used to want. And for the most part, I’m happy. But somewhere in that process, I lost touch with the one thing that used to help me make sense of everything: writing.

This episode isn’t about falling apart. It’s about what comes after.

Who you are when life finally feels okay, and what it means to reconnect with the parts of yourself that don’t come from survival anymore.

A huge thank you to my SO who pushed me into creating a new podcast again. Ily <3

 I'm pretty sure a lot of graduating students are able to relate to this podcast episode, especially when you are like me who is still in the process of figuring out what happens next and I just want to tell you that you're not alone.

 I just wanna say Congratulations for making it this far! I'm proud of you!

To my listeners who are dismayed by the turnout of elections, I'm sending you virtual hugs through this podcast. You all fought well and you don't deserve to be invalidated for your feelings of dismay. The past few months have been stressful for us. We've lost friends and families, even our own voices to chant our heart's desires for the government and none of it has been easy. I hope that this podcast may ease you in some ways and remind you to continue to be hopeful despite the hopelessness of the world. 

All love, Jean Mari

It's been quite some while since my last upload considering my 1 month rut and mental health break but I'm back with more exciting topics to talk about!

Tradition have always passed the role of the pursuer to men and it's not very mundane, especially here in the Philippines, that women are told that it's okay to do the first move as a woman.

In this podcast we will be talking about breaking the stereotypes in dating as well as the realities of doing the first move as a woman. Join me in this episode! 

It's suicide awareness month. As part of my advocacy on mental health awareness, I'm dedicating this podcast to everyone who's in a relationship with someone who's experiencing mental health problems while also dealing with mental health problems on our own.
