  • What We Don't Say About Growing Up

    (For any video watchers, please be warned this video is out of focus for a good portion of the episode! Thank you for sharing your time and listening/or watching!)

    Growing up can feel strange, like one second we're all in the same boat and quickly that shifts. Now it feels a little more daunting, maybe you feel a little isolated, or things just feel all around confusing and weird. This is just part of growing up, and also what a lot of us don't say about it. So I decided to chat about some of that in this episode.

    Hope you enjoy :)
