The goal of this podcast is to remind listeners that your problems are real, and valid. The hosts will share insight about how to navigate through struggles in life, as peers who actually deal with many of the things that are discussed. Lauren and Sophia are average people, with regular coping skills, just working to be the happiest and most effective versions of themselves. They want to create a space where your thoughts and feelings are okay to have, and hopefully give tools to their listeners to allow them to be happier and more content with life.
