Welcome to Octeapple. My diary became a podcast, and I share my thoughts, experiences, and reflections. It’s just me, my microphone, and me navigating the ups and downs of life. From daily adventures to personal insights and the little things that make life unique, join me for a behind-the-scenes look at my world. There’s is somewhat of a script, no filters—just real talk and the occasional ramble. You might find a kindred spirit here if you’re into candid conversations and a peek into someone else’s life. Tune in whenever you’re up for curious about whatever is on my mind! Love to Katie & Kim

    First Time Ever: My Siblings Came to Visit

    They finally came. Two of my four siblings visited for the first time ever, and it turned into a weekend of laughter, bad restaurant choices, and unexpected tenderness. Here’s what it taught me about family, distance, and growing slow — together ❤️

    Episode VIII: Body Bags & Water Cooler Gossip

    Alright, babes, buckle up. This episode gets real. We're diving headfirst into the heavy stuff and the hard truths with a brand new episode structure I'm trying out. Think of it like a live-action diary entry – complete with yawns, possible crochet attempts, and maybe some rogue pine needles. First up, in our "Overshare of the Week," I'm sharing a moment from my hospital pharmacy job that truly shook me – yeah, we're talking about the "Body Bags" part, the emotional weight of witnessing death, and asking those big, unanswerable questions. We'll lighten things up slightly with some "Weird Shxt I Learned This Week" before tackling our "You Asked for It" dilemma: the "Water Cooler Gossip." We'll unpack the gut-wrenching feeling of being disposable at work, feeling like your struggles are just a story, and what it’s like when the genuine support you pour into your coworkers doesn’t seem to come back to you. How do you cope when you feel like a cog in the machine or just office gossip? I'm sharing my struggles and asking for yours. We'll wrap it all up with a much-needed "Thought of the Week" (and a reminder that you deserve that coffee) and maybe, just maybe, a hint about the next Octeapple resin earring drop (aiming for June 5th-ish!). It’s vulnerable, it’s a bit messy, and it’s me, tired but here. Let’s get into it.

    Episode VI: Friendship (I)

    Dive into a story with me about the complexity of communication in a group of friends. I discussed a past friend group that ended with me losing those friends. It all started when I spoke to a stranger. Reflecting back on the past is always complex. Whether it ended badly or well, perspective is such a huge factor. All you can hope is to find those people in your life, and both of you feel comfortable communicating.
