June 05, 2023 I'm Coming Out of a Depressive Episode!! (I Hope) | Tips for Getting Out of a Funk
6. Well, I'm either getting better, or this is a brief break. I'll take it either way.
Today I talk about a realization I had last week: I've actually been......really depressed lately. Sometimes I'm so focused on getting through each day that it takes a lightbulb moment for me to realize that things have gotten bad again - and once I do, I have to start to pull myself out of it. This episode is all about my actionable tips for getting out of a funk. I'm only sharing what has *actually* worked for me.
I also share the two books I read last week and a piece of exciting life news!

In this episode I talk all about my recent journey of living alone while my husband and I are long distance.
