If you are feeling sad, anxious, depressed, or stressed... you are NOT alone.
I recently have been feeling those normal life pressures and realizing how it has impacted my mental health.
So I decided to talk about it.
No - it's nothing profound.
And yes - I am fully aware that mental health is extensively more than what I talk about.
But I hope it's a start. A start in discussing how our mental health is impacted, how we can protect it, how we can support it, and how we can take care of it if more serious illnesses and issues arise.
And how we can be present for others who are suffering.

Episode 3: Beauty & Influence with Lauren
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Yet we spend a lot of time criticizing each other for what we think is beautiful and how we present ourselves in the world.
Lauren and I spend some time talking about what beauty means to us and if our fashion choices matter to those around us. We dive into social media a bit as Lauren has amassed a bit of a following.
Join us in a conversation about loving who you are and accepting others for who they are and how they present themselves.
