For as long as we can remember diaries have been synonymous with privacy, a barrier for others. They collected the told and untold events, accomplishments, anxieties, and depression. It was an outlet for the unheard to feel heard, the repressed to feel some release. Join Kelley and Tae as they share personal diary entries to help raise awareness around mental health and what impacts it. Through the power of storytelling and honest conversation, this show will also feature guest stories in hopes to break down stigmas and empower others to continue conversations.
There's things we can't control but a lot that we can. Like the calories we take in, the shows we watch, the outlook we have on negative situations, and the patience to learn a new game...All things we cover in this episode.

Uncomfortable to Feel Comfortable
It's giving tough love. It's giving boundaries. It's giving advice giving/receiving...and it's not always comfortable.

Goodbye To New Year Resolutions
Throw those new year resolutions out of the window! Resolutions have an end date and start over at each new year...or doesn't because there's new ones. We want to create healthy habits through intentional changes that we've been working on or want to start on as of this year. What's yours?

Why is this so hard?!
"Don't be afraid to ask for help!" We've heard this before, right? Easier said than done. It's easy to understand yet it won't make it's way out of our mouths so we continue to show split seconds of wanting help that if someone wasn't paying attention between blinks, they would never know.

Tae's Tea
Let's paint the scene. We're all new friends hanging out somewhere, you pick the spot (we're indecisive) but hopefully coffee and/or food is involved because we're about to unpack. How else do you get closer to friends if you're not bonding over life's struggles?
