    S1 E14: Mental Illnesses

    What even is a mental illness? To begin with, you shouldn't be afraid of people with them. Their brains are just wired differently to your average one. They are a wide range of conditions that affect mood, thinking, and behavior. Some include: Depression, Anxiety, PTSD, OCDs, EDs, and so many more. There are common ones and uncommon ones, all affecting everyone differently. Sometimes life as a teenager is already difficult enough, but when another weight is added to our problems, how do we as a society react?  Listen in on this week's episode, with your hosts: Paola and Dani—where they talk about the different mental illnesses people, including teens and young adults, struggle with. From experiences with some themselves, friends they're close to, and the many ways the media incorrectly portrays them. Keeping things real through it all with each other, and you as the audience.

    S1 E13: Toxic Friends

    Often times we meet people we think we are going to stay in our lives. Some whom we believe we can trust and love without condition; but sometimes things don't go as planned.  These people can make us cry for things we haven't done, ignore us when we need them the most. Even then, there are people who wipe our tears, hold our hands and give us the comfort we yearn for. The world is filled with these types of people, but we must learn which hands to hold and which to let go.  Join your hosts—Paola and Dani—on this week's episode, where they talk about in depth toxic friendships; from past experiences to how it affected them, advice and how they deal with new people they meet: keeping things 100% real, just like every time.

    S1 E12: Giving Thanks

    In honor of Thanksgiving of this year, we wanted to ask a few questions: What are you thankful for? Why are you thankful for it? Do you think this should be appreciated by everyone or is it personal? "Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough." - Oprah Winfrey.  Are you thankful for what you currently have or are you not satisfied yet? No shame, just why? Join your host—Paola—on this week's episode, where she talks about the wonders of giving thanks and being appreciate for the good, the bad and the so-and-so.  Instagram - @getrealwithus

    S1 E10: Literature

    Sometimes as people, we need to experience humanity without the judgement; we just need to take in the small aspects of life. Whether we are young or old, we seem to all have similar needs.  You might want to sit down, enjoy a hot cup of coffee, chocolate or maybe even tea. The sound of rain hitting the window and you snuggled up under the covers;  but something is missing—a novel perhaps? A child in his bed, with his mother by his side; expecting her to read something to him; a short story book or a nursery rhyme? "Literature adds to reality, it does not simply describe it. It enriches the necessary competencies that daily life requires and provides; and in this respect, it irrigates the deserts that our lives have already become." - C.S. Lewis Join your hosts—Paola and Dani—on this week's episode. A passionate conversation about the different literature that exists in this world; along with the benefits that can come from it. Stories that influence their lives and that create a sense of personal experience.  Our instagram: @getrealwithus Note & Disclaimer: Send us a dm or make a story with our @ with the answer to the question asked by Dani at the end of the podcast!

    Everyone is human, we're bound to make mistakes. But with mistakes there comes a price; regret can be found among them.
