Hi! Welcome to Rainy Day Diaries, an imperfect podcast that will dive head first into how YOU can thrive in your creative life (and business) even if you struggle with mental wellness. As a long time struggler of anxiety and depression, I hope this podcast will help you realize you can still thrive in your life (some of the time lol) when you deal with these things on a daily basis. That you're not alone, and that falling down does NOT mean you won't get back up again!

This podcast feels like I’m hanging out with a friend! Jenipher is so down to earth and honest in these episodes. It's incredibly comforting and refreshing to listen to someone talk about real human experience stuff. It's particularly helpful for creatives I think, especially anyone dealing with anxiety, fear, imposter syndrome, or depression. You will feel less alone after listening!
