I don't really know why I am releasing this podcast. I'll be honest, I don't know what I'm doing at all and I have never done anything like this before. I'm just some young girl who is trying to navigate her way through life. Sounds cliché, I know. It's true though and I have no clue how I am going to do it. Of course, if you want, you can choose to go along this journey with me. Maybe you will get something out of it, who knows? Throughout this podcast, I plan to share my stories and try to find out who I am. It might be all over the place at first, but we will get to a hopefully stable place soon. I might share advice(which you should take with a grain of salt because I am, in no way, a professional), stories, breakdowns, answer some philosophical questions, and anything else I can think of. Although, please be warned, I might talk about some serious subjects throughout this podcast including mental illnesses and many personal stories. I will not try to impress everyone because this is just a project I want to go through by myself and possibly with you, if you choose to join. Thank you for at least staying this long and I hope that this podcast helps someone out there who is going through something similar.

In this episode, I will be introducing as much as I can about the show and myself. I don’t know much about podcasts but this took me a while and I hope you enjoy it!
