Well, that was awkward...
We've all been there. Flushed face, feeling hot all over, we're talking about that cringe moment. Maybe you texted the wrong person, or called someone by the wrong name, or maybe you just poured an entire drink all over yourself in a crowded restaurant and all eyes are on you.
This episode is dedicated to all those awkward, cringe-worthy, "I want to crawl into a pit and never come out" moments. We feel you. But here's the thing, we all go through embarrassing moments and we're here to say we're with you.
Join us this week as we recount a few of our many blunders and offer tips to shift out of embarrassment.

Friendship
From our earliest years, friends are an important part of our mental health. Friends can help fill our cup, provide us with a listening ear or just make us laugh until we nearly pee our pants. There are so many types of friends and dynamics of friendships we just had to dedicate an episode to this sweet topic. We talk about why it can be harder to make new friends later in life, what being a good friend might look like, and the grief of losing a friendship.
So take a listen, and maybe share it with a friend. Because we are all about celebrating the power of friendship.

Great discussions

This is so needed!
I am loving this podcast idea. It's so nice to know that there will be a podcast every week where I can hear smart women talking about the things that affect us all - anxiety! I'm looking foward to real conversations about it, and yeah, not feeling like it's just me :)
