TW: Suicide

In this episode, Liz and Sarah discuss The D'Amelio Show, Hulu's new reality show that follows famous TikTokers Charli and Dixie D'Amelio and their parents and friends. By watching, we get a better look into not only their busy lives and day-to-day challenges, but most importantly into their mental health and how their quick rise to fame via TikTok has negatively impacted them. Charli and Dixie delve into the anxieties they struggle with, and by doing so, we as an audience can see how their now full-time jobs are insanely difficult.

In this episode, Liz & Sarah talk out their stresses regarding working full-time and getting everything else done (taking care of themselves, their homes, finding time for social life, etc.). In reality, we often find ourselves overwhelmed with everything that needs to be done that we get fewer things done, and when it's time to relax, we don't know how to do that either. In this episode, you'll also hear Liz and Sarah chat about wanting control over their hours in the day but then not knowing how to manage free time. Send through a message if you can relate or have tips!
