Lessons Over Losses Podcast

Hey there! We are so proud to do this Episode. This has to be our favorite one yet.

We are here to celebrate PRIDE month! As pride month makes it way to an end, we must must MUST talk about some of the pervasive issues that permeate the LGBTQIA+ Community.

We hope you enjoy this episode, for real. Cuz we LOVED recording it.

Stay true, stay proud, stay undefeated.

With summer coming up, life should be good...right?? Maybe so, maybe not. What about that "summertime sadness" though??

What are the highlights (pun intended) and lowlights of summer? What should we take away going into this season, and what should we look out for?

Some of us are gettin' that "summer bod" ready, but are you getting that "summer mind" ready too?

Hope you enjoy this one as much as we enjoyed talking about it.

Cheers,

May is Mental Health Awareness Month!

And we want to take this moment to wish everyone a wonderful and fulfilling 5th month of the year 2023.

Today, each of us shares one area of mental health that we want to address - that we want to shed a little light on.

Obviously, we are an advocate of EVERY month being mental health-focused but tune into this one to get a snippet of where our efforts are going to at this current time.

Enjoy!!

Angel Reese, you do you!

There is an obvious double standard that exists when it comes to sports for men and women. This mini-episode is just a few rants, but we had to get it off our chest.

Covid shook all of us up three years ago. Can you believe that we are finally back to "normal"?

But are we? What are the lasting effects of Covid? What are we taking away from that era?

Tune into this one!

It happens...we all have those moments where we get heated, we reach our boiling point, and we just want to tell someone off. 

In this episode, we discuss the ways in which we resolve conflicts in our life. Whether it's a conflict with our friends, family, colleagues, or just strangers in general, it requires some internal work and tactful methods. 

Please excuse our constant swearing in this conversation. Be ready to hear a couple of phrases that we probably would not use on someone, but we really want to. 

Enjoy! 

Allow us to reintroduce ourselves... WE BACKKKKK!!

This season is going to be hype! And it starts off with a huge banger here. This episode has all the goodies and all the feels. We touch up on some wide-ranging things here. How did y'all feel about Ri Ri at the Super Bowl? Aaron Rodgers is doing what???

"How do you disconnect?"

"Is there such a thing as an UNHEALTHY way to disconnect??"

"What's one thing you are going to change in 2023... the way you talk or the way you look at mental health"?

Don't miss this one. 

2022 is coming to an end and we hope everyone out there has a joyous holiday season. But...before you do that, the three of us wanted to be a little bit Grinch-like and talk about some of the realities of the holiday season. 

Is the holiday season really all that wonderful? 

Do we romanticize the holidays too much?

What about those who are unable to enjoy the same holiday perks that we do?

Not to be a downer for the holidays, just trying to be realistic and let other stories be heard. 

With that, we wish you the happiest of holidays. May the rest of your 2022 be the best of your 2022!

As always, stay undefeated.

This was a venting session that turned out into a much-needed Mini Episode. 

Are you getting the most out of your job, your workplace, and your employer?? Each person wants specific things from their career, and for the three of us, the common theme was we want the proper support. Those supports look differently among us, but it's important nonetheless. 

Do you experience burnout from your work? Or do you feel apathetic or complacent? What is it like to feel those things?

Listen here and enjoy!

Today's episode features the three of us speaking about

"90% of US adults say that the US is currently experiencing a mental health crisis" - this is the headline of a recent CNN article. 

This type of headline makes us wonder... are we really going through a mental health-related crisis? What kind of crisis are we seeing? How do we define a crisis? Does this fit the definition of a crisis?

We didn't expect this to turn into a heated discussion, but it kind of did. Listen in and enjoy this riveting conversation. 

As always, stay blessed, and stay undefeated.
