Pretty Mental is about accepting our full selves and inspiring others to do the same by being daringly unfiltered. This means completely normalizing all things mental health and the wild journey that has brought us here. We are challenging the stigmatization of normal human suffering. We are done pretending and subscribing to the notion that it’s taboo to have challenging mental health experiences.
Welcome to the pretty mental health club and enjoy the show!

116. Moving Beyond Survival Mode with Tara Zinnamon
Today’s conversation is with the magical spirit Tara Zinnamon and it was the exact nourishment my soul was hungry for. We laughed, cried and showed up with our hearts wide open. In this convo, Tara dives into:
Dealing with the compounding loss and grief of having her dad taken away by the legal system when she was just 5 years old
What it looks like to wholeheartedly embrace anger after suppressing it for so many years
Losing her beautiful mother to a rare aggressive ovarian cancer and being her full-time caretaker during COVID
Why seeing mortality face to face taught her all about allowing every part of her life to be seen and not just the shiny sides
How she's finding ways to unload grief and step deeply into radical softness
"There’s more beyond struggle, there’s more beyond survival" - Tara

115. I Promise We'll Get Through It (Solo)
Today I dive into an intimate solo about my health and how the universe has been guiding me to come face to face with old traumas. I bring in lessons that I learned in my early and mid-20s when I was living with a scary eating disorder that I thought I would never be able to heal from. And I let you guys in on the way I’m being asked to approach life right now.
