    28. Big Changes and Big Emotions w/ Jacquie Pershing

    Hi everyone and welcome back! I know it's been a while, but I'm so excited to bring you this episode with the wonderful Jacquie Pershing-- Valencia's amazing social worker and wellness coordinator-- for Mental Health Awareness Month in May! Straight from the school's wellness room, Jacquie and I chat about the complicated emotions that often come with big changes in our lives. Whether that be excitement, fear, grief, or a messy mix of them all, we're covering it all!  Note: With high school graduation and college quickly approaching, I am taking an indefinite break from the podcast, but this isn't the end of Mind Matters with Mia! I'm hoping to continue this in some form during college, but I will be forever grateful for these past few years creating this podcast 3 --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mindmatterswithmia/support

    27. The Ups and Downs of Applying to College w/ Xagros Faraji

    Hello everyone and welcome back! Today I'm talking to one of my close friends Xagros Faraji about... college apps! As high schoolers in the fall semester of our senior year, we are right in the middle of a very stressful season. Tune in to hear us talk about our essay-writing processes, our thoughts on prestigious colleges, and how comparison is the thief of not only joy, but also sanity.  (Quick note: Some of the audio was deleted during recording so about halfway through, there's a slightly awkward transition. Thanks for understanding!)  Hope you enjoy!  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/mindmatterswithmia/support
