As a Virgo and a Scorpio (respectively), Gemma Bird Matheson and Emma Horn know how to keep their cards close to their chest. But, as Brene Brown says (do we still stan her?), shame thrives in isolation. So Gemma and Emma are here to let you in on all their dramas and anxieties in an attempt to fix themselves, one episode at a time. Cause who needs therapy when you can start a podcast?!
Gemma and Emma will tackle anxiety, dating fears, rejection sensitivity and more - with each episode focusing on a different issue they want to work through. Producer Jenna Suffern will then assign them a challenge to complete before the next episode...
What could possibly go wrong?
