Tastefully Mediocre

Happy 2022, friends!! WOWZA, what a year that was. In today's episode, I've got some updates for ya and tell you where my head is at. Did I enjoy 2021? Was it the worst year ever? I guess you'll have to listen ;) I love you lots! - Nicole Hosted by Nicole Koch https://www.instagram.com/niicole.koch Edited by Nicole Koch Research & Fact Checking provided by Nicole Koch Promotional Marketing created by Nicole Koch --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tastefullymediocre/support

hi friends. ***TW*** In this episode, we discuss topics of alcoholism, addiction, and a bit of self harm. Please be conscious of your mental health and don't listen if you think you will be triggered by those topics. I want you to be safe and healthy and happy so if you need to skip out on this one and join me for the next I completely understand! :)

Happy Holidays, everyone! I hope you are all doing well in this time. I know the Holidays can often trigger a lot of uncomfortable feelings and memories for some people. I'm here to remind you that whatever you are feeling is valid. For me, Holidays bring up a lot of uncertainty and second- guessing; which my Therapist, and Section 3 of Stoic Philosophy, will tell you is more common than not.  The emotions we feel are so human and valid because we are meant to express ourselves and have a primal need to do so. But remember; don't make any rash decisions. Take it day by day. Talk to your friends, a mentor; someone you can speak to freely without judgement. It's easy to take things for granted and get used to the way something is, but we are meant to adapt, and grow. Nothing is permanent. Be aware of the amazing things you have in front of you in the moment. You may never get the chance to have them again. I've been working through that myself :) I love you all.  -Nic Hosted by Nicole Koch https://www.instagram.com/niicole.koch Edited by Nicole Koch Promotional Marketing created by Nicole Koch --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/tastefullymediocre/support

Today's episode discusses topics of mental health that may be triggering for some people. As a mental health advocate, and someone who experiences anxiety and depressed mood, I wanted to have this important discussion with someone equally as versed and dedicated to ending the stigma as I am. I want you to know that you're not alone; there is always someone willing to help. A peer, a family member, a trusted educator, a coworker- hell, even the host of a podcast who just wants you to exist joyfully. You're not alone. I love you.

TW: This is a tough one, friends. If you think you may be negatively affected by the discussion of death, grief, or suicide, I kindly ask you to skip out on this episode and join us for the next one. Please welcome my next guest; Writer and Director Tony Vivio! We get really vulnerable, and I thank Tony for allowing himself to go there with me. I also thank you, the listeners, for you support and understanding throughout my own time of healing. Resources: (not sponsored, just some sites I believe in and think could help

Not sure how many of you actually read these descriptions but HI AGAIN. Welcome back. In this episode we get completely off topic and the content feels strange to speak about with just the two of us.
