Let Me Talk Michelle Elman & Amalie Lee

How can we survive the "New Year, New Me" hype? Why should we not start a new diet in January... or ever? And how can we can make resolutions without damaging our body image?
Michelle and Amalie welcome you into 2019 with an episode that counters all the "new year, new me" garbage we are seeing at this time of the year. Instead of talking about new diets or workout regimes, we focus on goals that can actually improve our lives - not crush our souls.

This week's episode is all about how to keep up your boundaries around nosy family members, why hiding in the bathroom is essential self-care, and why it's OK to hate Christmas.

Is there still a stigma around therapy? How do you know when you don’t need therapy anymore? Or is therapy a lifelong thing?
Michelle and Amalie share their experiences of going to therapy, and how there are some flaws in how the system works. They discuss the expense of therapy, whether diagnosing people actually benefits them and how to find the right therapist when you can barely even understand the difference between a counsellor, psychotherapist, psychologist and psychiatrist.

Are you a pads or tampon person? Can you be too tight to use a cup? And can you be too old to leak?
Michelle and Amalie share their experiences with their periods, the struggles of learning how to use a tampon for the first time and how to have that awkward conversation with your friend if you’ve leaked on their chair. They talk about why we are still uncomfortable using the correct terminology for a period and coin a new term “period positivity”
