    So yeah. A lot's happened. I'm not okay. I'm not happy about a lot of things. I'm sad. I'm angry. I'm confused. I am all the emotions-- all at once. Frustrated doesn't even begin to cover it. And oh yeah, I'm back by the way, cause I can't take sitting back anymore not saying anything. Not voicing my opinion. If I can help it, I have to help take a stand and bring about some conversation, and a voice of reason into all this because the world is a wild, scary, crazy place. That said, I know things aren't all bad all the time, and I genuinely was going through it when I recorded this episode. Be advised though... definitely NSFW. I hope you're angry enough like me to help enact change.

I really wanted to make this episode be about making the best out of sucky situations and further how to help each other get out of this rut that I think many of us have been feeling.It's hard to be excited about life sometimes when things just don't feel great or exciting or eventful. I know for myself I've felt that about 1000x over during the last few weeks. I'm really grateful to have some good people in my corner to turn to for love and support and I'm really grateful that I get to be here for all of you and can hopefully share some love and support with you all as well.I hope you enjoy this episode, and I'm so glad we're on this crazy train together

    Hi! I'll be the first to admit that I tend to form opinions about everything pretty quickly and I don't give myself a lot of time to give things a chance, and most importantly to be surprised. Sometimes the situations, events, and circumstances in my life tend to dictate why I do certain things or why I make the choices I make, and often I expect a lot out of everything and everyone I come into contact with.I know that a lot of these biases come from a place of frustration and hurt, and sometimes it's just me deciding that I'm not willing to grow or learn from these situations that are placed in front of me. That kind of thinking is really damaging and that's something I wanna dispel in today's episode.

    Ever feel like there's this constant pressure to have your cake and eat it too? I always feel like in life there's this expectation to be doing better at all times-- to have a better job, to make more money, to be more fit, the list goes on and on. And the thing is, progress is a good thing, but I think that sometimes it's important for us to remember that we are FULLY deserving of love and happiness at any phase of the process. You should still get to treat yourself to a cute outfit even if you haven't lost all the weight. You still deserve to feel happy after a bad breakup. You still deserve to have moments of peace in situations of chaos and stress.Life is all about balance. And I think the important thing is that we find little ways to thrive in our contentment. We should be celebrating the little victories, and taking care of ourselves when we feel down, when we don't feel like we're at the top of our game. This weeks' episode is all about being content with where you are, what you have, and knowing when it's time to do better for yourself, not because someone else wants you to, but because you want it!Really hope ya'll enjoy the episode!!Links to some important things I think ya'll should know about! :)Event Sign Up Link!!https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1rW4PY_9rp9b8XmcFPgRQjuKaZNM1nkp-1Wjf1YNKU0M/viewform?ts=60600500&edit_requested=trueThe Climb- Miley Cyrushttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NG2zyeVRcbsTaylor Swift's Fearless (Taylor's Version) https://open.spotify.com/album/4hDok0OAJd57SGIT8xuWJH?si=jo0WJxlIQ5SslyzYLr9IhAHolla atcha girl on insta: @ithinkweshouldtalkpodcast or send me some good ole fashion email: ithinkweshouldtalk.podcast@gmail.com!Also please make sure to rate, subscribe and tell all ya friends!
