Anger is a VALID emotion - but when does it become TOO much?? How do we shift our perspectives on things? Why do we always feel the need to be validated by people? Why do we jump into confrontations that have nothing to do with us? How do we create boundaries with others without starting fights? WHY AM I SO EMOTIONAL?! Well... take a breath, and let's talk about it.

Growing is hard - you have to take accountability, learn from mistakes, try new things, and get hit in the face with your demons. During this growth period I’ve learned so much about myself, and continued to do the work so I can be the person I was always meant to be. So, this is what I’ve learned this past year, and why I’m done listening to the voice in my head that keeps telling me lies.

There is a definite difference in dating guys who are younger than you vs. older. I dated guys almost 10 years older than me and some who were 5-6 years younger. Within those relationships I learned a lot about myself and what I refuse to put up with in the future. We will be discussing why my last relationship ended, cheating, abuse, insecurities, why the podcast almost ended & why I do not give a fuck about the Oscars. 
Enjoy.

TW: Talks of suicide, death, and abuse of minors.
Bullying has been around since forever, but with the increased access to social media it has only become worse. Our youth is subjected to not only in school bullying, but now the bullies can get them where it hurts, online. This is the story of Adriana and Mallory, only 14 and 12 years old when they decided to end their lives. These young girls gained national attention and shook many of us to our core. What you will hear is heartbreaking, but it is so important to note that this could have been prevented. The negligence displayed by adults who are in power to protect children, failed, absolutely failed these children.
 **If you or someone you know is struggling with suicidal thoughts please call or text 988 for help - you are not alone**

Hi - we are discussing why I left my job recently. Do not do what I did and stay at a toxic job for too long. I regret not reporting these people to HR for their gross behaviors, and from now on I will not let people treat me in these ways ever again. Be kind to others but do not take any shit. Learn from my mistakes and stand up for yourself. Do not try to be nice just to keep the peace. And if someone is treating you like garbage? Talk to management EVERY TIME, HR, anyone - until someone hears you and does something about it. I am still learning and I hope you all can take something from this episode. I think when we allow people to treat us unfairly it is a mirror into how we think we deserve to be treated. Self love is hard and I am finding my way through respecting myself, and how I want others to respect me. Sometimes we have to learn it the hard way. I let this job slowly break me down in the worst way. I am still angry with how things have played out, but life keeps moving and I have to keep up, learn, and grow. Onto the next chapter.
