Hi! Welcome to Rainy Day Diaries, an imperfect podcast that will dive head first into how YOU can thrive in your creative life (and business) even if you struggle with mental wellness. As a long time struggler of anxiety and depression, I hope this podcast will help you realize you can still thrive in your life (some of the time lol) when you deal with these things on a daily basis. That you're not alone, and that falling down does NOT mean you won't get back up again!
Transitions. And what's next for Rainy Day Diaries!
Transitions suck, but they also help you grow and change, which is necessary for growth. (yay! adulting!)
In this short and sweet episode why it's so necessary to go with the flow during transitions (once you're a parent) and what's next for Rainy Day Diaries!
