Wow this week was supposed to be such a positive week for Democrats and the country. Instead it was a week more horrifying than 9/11 and could lead to drastic consequences in all theaters of society. Here’s my honest, from the heart, off the chest feelings on this week’s events.

So this week's episode is more of a conceptual intro to certain aspects of mental health. And I as dive deeper into this, I aim to incorporate my own experiences and those of some of my closest friends. Enjoy!

I think many of us are unsure of what to do when our candidate loses in the primary. Do we fall in line, or do we fall in love? This and more in this week’s episode!

WELCOME TO THE NEW SEASON OF OFF THE CHEST!! I am revitalized, and with this election all but over, what comes next? How do we and the Biden team transition into a new world?
