I've never been one to fit into a one-size fits all mold-- for anything. Sometimes that's led me to the conclusion that I'm just not everyone's cup of tea. I think it can be easy to feel like you don't fit in, or aren't "doing it right" somehow. I decided to embrace that with this podcast! It's a little all over the place (kind of like me), but we'll find our way. There's beauty to be found in stumbling across another person in this world who matches your energy, so maybe we can create something beautiful together... I have a good feeling about this. I think YOU may just be MY cup of tea ;)
Why is this episode one of my favorites to date? lol. This week we keep it light and silly with a game of Would You Rather. Play along and see if you can guess what I'd rather do before I say it, and share with me which ones you strongly agree and disagree with! And remember to keep an eye out on Instagram to submit dream stories for the upcoming dream episode, or feel free to email them to me as well!

18. Celebrating Women's History Month
*Please be aware that this episode contains sensitive content relating to sexual violence, sexual assault, rape, violence towards women, domestic abuse, and references to blood*
It's Women's History Month! In today's episode, we talk about all things womens rights. I give y'all the rundown on some bad bitch women of history that impacted my personal rights and access to things like writing, driving, and mental health treatment. Then, I cover the facts on when women were granted certain rights and freedoms throughout history, which you'll find isn't as distant as we often think it is. Lastly, I give an overview of just a few of the injustices and lack of rights women around the world still face today. This last piece of the podcast contains some sensitive content, so please listen with caution <3 And be sure to keep an eye out on Instagram for prompts for next week's dream episode!

17. Spotlight Sessions with Duane Gull
This episode was a labor of love, y'all... For the first episode in a series I'm calling 'Spotlight Sessions', I sat down and interviewed my grandpa, Duane Gull, about his life story. Our interview lasted all day and by the time I left his house, I had accumulated over 8 hours of recording time. Sadly, when I got around to editing it all a while later, I realized I had recorded our interview on a damaged storage disk and discovered that nearly 4 hours of our interview was missing. While severely disappointed by this, I had plenty of material left to put an episode together, which is what made up todays episode. I hope to have Duane return to the podcast in the future, so we can enjoy more of his storytelling and wisdom.
