Thoughts and rantings of a twenty something girl living in the world of mental illness. Cover art photo by Jon Tyson Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thisissav/support
As we know, life is always changing. Things will begin and end for the rest of time. One door closes so another may open, create space so something else can fill it. While I find myself at the forefront of a lot of change I realize that this podcast has served its purpose for me. And although I didn’t say it enough throughout the last 403 days, I need thank you for giving me the space to be myself and the space to figure out what that even means. Thank you for accepting my vulnerability and listening to me when I didn’t know what I was saying. Thank you, and know that I am ever changing and ever good. - xo sav --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/thisissav/support
