I Need a Break

In this episode, Olivia talks about her experience with guys and falling into the "pick-me" category. It's not an emotionally good place to be, so this is an episode for advice on trying to break toxic/harmful relationship patterns and to not be afraid of being truly alone. Also, question for the audience, do you think pick-me's and people pleasers are the same?

Do you have the toxic habit of invalidating your experiences? Do you ever feel like you deserve the negative side effects of stress? In this episode, Olivia talks about giving yourself permission to accept yourself,  accept your experiences and release the obsession over things that we cannot control. 

Being a young girl in general is tough, especially when you live in a small town. You can feel like if you are hurt, but it isn't the popular opinion, that it's invalid. This could be the symptoms of many things, but no matter what you're heard and your voice is valid. Other's words and actions can cause a lot of pain, and that is completely valid for you to be upset about. In this episode, Olivia talks about finally developing a voice to heal and speak her truth. We all make mistakes, but they don't invalidate our ability to still be hurt by others. We need to challenge each other to take a hard look in the mirror when we are seeking ways to hurt or hate on a girl who we have no mental data on. But... that doesn't mean blindly supporting every woman, just recognizing that feminism has a lot of work to do in healing young girls relationships with one another.
