note on: saying no and boundaries 101


Listen Later

Hello, hello! This is the pilot episode of the new series, "note on"! This series focuses more on topics that concern the average eldest daughter: setting boundaries, cultural expectations, mental health, friendships and dating, and finding your voice beyond family duty, among many other topics! The series is more in-depth, exploring my own personal journeys with these topics, some journal prompts I utilized to work through the tough moments, as well as practical tips and reminders to help fellow eldest daughters (and anyone else tuning in). "note on" is a project that I hold close to my heart and I hope you're able to take something away from it, even if it's just one piece of the puzzle we call life!
