About MJs Progress Not Perfection
From the publisher's feed
Trigger warning but my entire show is a trigger warning. Really anything can be a trigger for someone evening cracking a can. It’s hard to put trigger warnings on my episodes because of that very…
reason. Please when listening to my show if you hear us laughing it’s because it’s a beautiful thing to find light in our darkness. The more we talk openly about our pasts the easier it becomes to accept it and the more control we have in it. If ever feeling triggered because of my show please take a break. If you want to keep hearing more stories like these please subscribe, rate, review, like etc!
