We are not afraid to "get political" on this podcast because politics impact so much of our daily lives, especially right now.

Take care of yourself. We know things are moving very fast and things are very uncertain and scary right now, but it is okay to pause and take a breath. We cannot help make change if we are not taking care of ourselves.

Join us for another session where we pick apart the why's and how's of relationships. We'll talk more about communication, how not to settle, and why dating apps are the actual worst.

If you're in a relationship and need a little help having some hard conversations, check out some of the resources we mention below, and remember there's no harm in working with a licensed professional to navigate some of the tough stuff.

Communication is not something we're really taught in school like math or history. It's something we're constantly trying to figure out as we go through life.

Join us as we analyze better ways to communicate, unpack why confrontation is so freaking scary, and learn how to ask for what you need without feeling like a burden.

Remember it's okay to work with a licensed professional to learn how to be a better communicator in all of your relationships, personal and professional.
