Oh, adulthood. We were promised endless pizza parties at 2 am however, no one told us making friendships as an adult would be difficult.
Looking for friends as an adult can feel like you're playing a game of hide-and-seek, but no one is looking for you. It's like trying to be the fifth member of a girl group that already has four.
Join me and my long-time friend, Kealey, as we chat about the difficulties and importance of finding your community.

In this episode, we sit down with my sidekick aka brother, Mykie, to discuss the concept of threatened masculinity and his extensive nail routine.

Mykie shares his personal story of growing up in a time when being openly gay was not as accepted as it is today. He discusses the hypermasculine ideals that were pervasive in the culture at the time, and how this affected his own sense of self and acceptance. He also shares how his fashion choices, which often defy traditional gender norms, have been met with violence, bullying, and ridicule.

Throughout the conversation, we explore the broader societal implications of threatened masculinity, including the harm it can cause to individuals and communities. We also discuss the importance of self-acceptance and advocacy and the ways in which individuals can work to create more accepting and inclusive spaces.

Mykie's story is a powerful reminder of the harm that can be caused by rigid gender norms and the importance of standing up for oneself and others in the face of adversity. Join us for this informative yet HILARIOUS conversation.

In this episode, we welcome Kate, cohost of No Small Games, a guest who will be sharing her experience living with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). PMDD is a severe form of premenstrual syndrome (PMS) that affects some people during their menstrual cycle. Kate opens up about the challenges she faces during her premenstrual phase, including intense mood swings, anxiety, and depression.

We discuss the impact PMDD has had on her personal and professional life, and how she has learned to manage her symptoms over time. Kate shares her journey of diagnosis and treatment, including therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes. She also talks about the importance of self-care and support from loved ones.

We delve into the misconceptions and stigma surrounding PMDD and how it is often dismissed as just PMS. Kate highlights the need for greater awareness and understanding of PMDD, both within the medical community and society as a whole.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in learning more about PMDD and how it can affect individuals' lives.

Join us in another episode of turning trauma into trophies while laughing along the way!

Listen to the trailer now and the Pilot Episode on April 6th on your favorite podcast platform!

In this episode, I sit down with my beautiful friend Steph, who bravely shares her personal journey living with ADHD as a 27-year-old woman. We talked about everything from the unique challenges she's faced to the strategies she's used to thrive in her personal and professional life. It was such an insightful and inspiring conversation that I can't wait for you all to listen!

Unfortunately, many young girls and women with ADHD don't get diagnosed until later in life. Many symptoms of ADHD in women present themselves as other conditions such as anxiety and depression.

For every 3 boys diagnosed with ADHD, only 1 girl gets diagnosed. This is largely due to symptoms in young girls that often manifest differently.

By opening up conversations like this, we hope that more resources will become available and provide the care that women and young girls need.

Well, we did it. We're finally here! You're all caught up on where I am now after cancer. Little did I know there would be more obstacles to face after treatment.

Ovarian failure, cognitive impairments, and chemo brain, just to name a few.

It's not all bad though. After cancer, my perspective on life changed. I don't care about the little things that used to bother me.

Lesson learned: If nothing else, just go for it. Life is too short to give a sh*t.
