I encourage you to listen, relate, and possibly share your own stories with me as well.

For this segment I decided to review the memoir by Jennette McCurdy titled, "I'm Glad My Mom Died." I was very curious about the story she decided to share. I was a fan of hers from the show iCarly when the show was on the air. I couldn't help, but become interested into what she might have to say. I hope you listen and understand my review. The review isn't made to throw shade at all. It is to share my honesty from reading this book.

For this episode I am giving n example of how stressful people can be when they have a certain lifestyle. When trying new foods or trying new things we should never be forced to do something we don't want to do. it is one thing to share the good and bad things of a lifestyle, but it is another when people push too hard. I explain my point of view with difficult people sharing their lifestyles. I encourage you to listen, relate, and possibly share your own stories with me as well.

For this episode I talk about society's expectations of being in love and having someone. Love and relationships are a great thing to have for people, but some people don't feel that way. Some people just are content with how things are in their life. Since they are comfortable with their life, why do they need to change it? I encourage you to listen, relate, and possibly share your own stories with me as well.

Tales For My Beauties #3- "Underground Home" (Part 5) FINAL semi-short story.

For this story in particular there are a few disclaimers to better explain why this story is special.

- First thing is that this story was originally born through a dream I had. (As we all know dreams aren't always so clear or doesn't give too much detail) So in order for it to make more sense I had to add events, and specific wording between people... even names had to be created.

- Second it took me more than a year to even finish the story so it is longer than previous segments.

-Third a whole journal is almost filled out, so therefore this story is going to be in parts.. so watch out for those continuous parts.

-Fourth The dream was taken place in my own perspective a few years in the future.

-Fifth the story is written in a journal format. So each event is separated by days between each other so listen closely.

Join me in my dream story set in a few years in the future! My stubborn self that enjoys routine is interrupted by a young man with piercing eyes. Am I going to let him change my routine or stay the same? Follow my journey in each part of my underground adventure. A lot can happen in a boring setting, so pay attention closely to those things that can make this story interesting enough. Welcome to Part 5! I hope you enjoy the story!!

For this episode in particular I step away from my normal content, and talk about the behind the scenes of my podcast. I share with my listeners my future plans with my podcast, and how I create the content. In order to celebrate it I printed out some Mad Libs to have a good laugh being presented on my podcast considering that my podcast is mostly about serious topics. I hope for the year of listening to my podcast has inspired you in some way to keep listening or to encourage you to come up with your own content.

Don't forget to contact me if you want me to talk about a certain topic or share with me about a difficult time that you went through.
