October 26, 2020 Ghouls Just Wanna Have Fun
Welcome back to my ~glamorous~ life!!!!!!
Back in action after ghosting you guys for a week!!!! In this episode I am sharing my thoughts and opinions on how women get slut shamed, categorized, assumptions made about their life/sex life based off of HALLOWEEN COSTUMES. Instead of shitting on women for buying/wearing these costumes, can we start shitting on the halloween costume companies & manufacturers for sexualizing everything ?????
Push your tits up to your chin, wear the crazy costumes, go crazy, have fun!!!!!!!!

October 16, 2020 Mind tricks, No treats
Trigger Warning: Discussing my issues with food, eating, restricting foods etc.
Welcome back to my ~glamorous~ life!!!!!
In this public diary episode I discuss my fears and restrictions certain foods. Every year around Halloween and the holidays I struggle most with these cravings and fears with all the treats always being widely available. I take it back to 10+ years ago when I gave up candies, foods, drinks for Lent and becoming obsessed with seeing how long I could go without them. Fast forward 10 years, I now have a fear of these foods and am struggling to break this pact I set years ago.
Keeping it real and honest as I try to get over these fears.
I love you guys so fucking much.
I am by no means blaming religion for any of these issues.

September 21, 2020 23 & Being Sober
Welcome back to my ~glamorous~ life!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Monday (surprised I posted this on time) & Happy whatever day you are listening to this episode!
This week's episode is about 23 & being sober. In this day and age it's almost seen as a taboo to be of legal age and choosing not to drink. I discuss (babble about) my journey and views on alcohol, starting from the OG days of D.A.R.E, high school where drinking is seen as being *~cool~*, college days where I was called lame, buzz kill & not fun for being sober, the immense amount of peer pressure I fell under and drinking alcohol to please other people and how I got to the point of choosing for myself to be fully sober.
Please do not ever put yourself in a situation where you feel uncomfortable, unsafe or unhappy to please other people or to fit in. If your “friends” are pressuring you to do something you do not feel comfortable or safe with, they are not your friends they are pieces of shit. Ditch them.
*No judgement if you drink, enjoy drinking, have fun with it. This is my personal experience with alcohol, I always drank for the wrong reasons all while shitting my pants & vomiting non stop the next day*
If you are of legal age, please drink responsibly. Do not drink and drive, be safe, be careful.

Welcome back to my ~glamorous~ life!!!!!!!!
I finally figured out a theme name so happy 23 & RIRI month!!!!!!
Last week I discussed my struggle with finding a job, sucking at the job process & not being able to say no to people so this week I decided to elaborate on it. I discuss my overwhelming fear of not being "successful", putting my mental health behind money and jobs, not knowing what I want to do with my career at 23, how the media portrays success and comparing my life to younger stars success (tiktok/youtube).
I have no idea what im doing with my life so buckle up for this shit storm of a ride.
All love
