We don’t know who needs to hear this, but nobody has their shit together 100 percent of the time — nobody. You can be excelling in one part of your life while another area is imploding. Those two states of being co-exist all the time, for everyone. Life is messy like that. And it's okay. What's not okay? Acting like you have it under control when you're spiraling. We want to help. Messy Situations empowers people to release feelings of shame by bravely revealing the unfiltered parts of their lives. Each week we'll discuss Messy Situations —big and small— submitted anonymously and shared by in-person guests, and then call in our Clean-Up Crew of wellness experts, mental-health pros, spiritual guides, energy healers, messy-life survivors and more to start mopping things up. We encourage anyone who is willing to confess their own mess — even science says it’s good for the soul.
