I want to speak more openly to some of the things I struggle with. This week, it's my anxiety -- more specifically anxiety I get when I travel.

First off -- Angel and I made our first move of the summer so that was fun! We talk a little about it. But the real part of this episode is us discussing various deep topics. I loved recording this so I think I will definitely do more like this.

May is Mental Health Awareness month and that is super exciting for the Society Says brand! Mental health is so so so important and today I kick off the month with talking about a couple different things I feel are great reminders as we head into this month.

My sister joins me this week to talk about her journey to living whole heartedly. She has been inspired by Brene Brown and encourages all of you to read/listen to her work -- very inspiring! Listen to find ways of how you can become more accepting of yourself and live to your fullest.

Today I'm not going to talk about any issues in society or any topics that really relate to this brand. I've decided to have a casual episode today -- just me talking about what's going on in life, favorite shows on Netflix and more!

Angel and I discuss our financial situation during this time and our game plan. We talk about when it's appropriate to take risks and how we should never regret anything in life. We can recognize mistakes and then learn but don't regret. It's not worth it.

Even though everything around us has closed and come to a stop, that does not mean our lives stop. It doesn't mean that time has stopped. Days are going to continue to press on so we need to make sure we are doing the same.

I believe that every person needs to know how to say no. We are always going to find ourselves in situations where no is what we need to say. It's amazing how many of us are afraid to say one simple word.

What if the world really was coming to an end? Angel and I talk about the coronavirus and the worldwide panic that has happened in a result of the spread of this virus. Don't worry, it's not too heavy! We keep it pretty light.

Mielle Harmon joins this week's episode to talk about varies topics. Let me tell you, the farther along you get into this episode, the stranger we get because it was getting late. You can find Mielle on instagram @peaceloveharmm and give her podcast a listen @harmony.pls

I took a poll asking if social media is used more for evil or more for better. Listen to see what the people think. Along with that, topics on phones and communication through a screen are also brought up.

My husband Angel makes his first appearance on today's episode! We thought it would be best if we started this first episode together talking about being in a biracial marriage and what it's like in today's world. I want to apologize in advance -- one of my mics decided to not work and I hadn't noticed until we finished so Angel is a little quieter than me but you can still hear us both!

Today, I talk about the traits and characteristics that make us the person we are in this world. I go as far as talking about the hair on our bodies! Lastly, I touch on validation and when it's time to unfollow people on social media and in real life.

Adi Tarango is a beautiful plus sized woman with the most confidence I have ever witnessed! Today she shares her thoughts and wisdom on self care as a whole but specifically therapy. We also talk about body image/eating lifestyles and to wrap it all up we talk about the new movie coming out April 17, Promising Young Woman.

To kick off this podcast creator, Staria Belle, will introduce herself and explain where the brand Society Says came from and how it ended up where it is today. Stay tuned every Monday morning for a new episode of Society Says.
