  • 44 | How Are You Even? Election Check In W/ Ashley
    In this episode, Ashley talks about how she’s managing election stress (special s/o to Oreo’s) and the importance of letting yourself feel allllll the feelings. This election has quite a bit riding on it (understatement) and it’s easy to feel bogged down, so be sure to especially look after yourself this week! It’s always ok to just slow down:)

  • 39 | Our First Group Episode!

    In this episode, you get to know a bit about our podcast team while listening to a zoom conversation we shared! This is the first of many group episodes, so we definitely came across some audio difficulties and awkward cuts, but we'll work it all out in the episodes to come. A few quick note: our zoom cut off around half way through the episode, so some members couldn't stay for the rest of the episode. Luckily though, you'll get to hear all our podcasters plenty in the future!

  • 38 | The Other Perspective: Episode 5 w/ Fatima

    The Other Perspective is a sub-series by Fatima, where she uses her experience as a Muslim-American woman living in the United States to speak about her experiences. She aims to get listeners thinking about a different take on many relevant issues related to Muslims in the United States and to Gen Z listeners.

    We live in a culture of increasing loneliness and individualism which has become destructive to the mental health of young people. The increasing commercialization of mental health and the rapid sale of self-help books and guided courses towards improving mental health have led to worsening mental health around the board. In this episode, Fatima talks about how the only way to truly care for oneself is through “community care”, or being surrounded by others who see themselves as part of your family, and how we can make that a reality."
